There were not many shops open at 11 o'clock, so I decided to go to a conveyor belt sushi restaurant for a quick meal. There was already one group of customers there. Despite that, the sushi was flowing well, and I enjoyed dishes like seared halibut, red snapper, and negi salt battleship sushi. You could also order specific items from a panel, such as crab tempura, seared mackerel, and scallops. The mackerel had some bones that bothered me, and the portions were a bit small, maybe due to a decrease in catch volume. By the time I finished eating before noon, the restaurant was bustling, with foreigners also enjoying the sushi.

I visited this restaurant for lunch on January 31, 2023, Tuesday. It's not common to have revolving sushi for lunch in the tourist city of Kyoto, so the place was quite empty. The interior was surprisingly small. I was unsure of what to order, but then I noticed they had a daily sushi assortment set for 780 yen, which also came with udon. I immediately ordered that. First, the udon arrived, followed by the sushi assortment! The sushi was delicious as expected! The udon was also decent. Overall, I thought it was an excellent choice for a quick lunch.

Wow, it's already 2:50 PM, I missed the timing for lunch. If I eat ramen at this time, the evening drinks won't taste as good. I don't have time to eat slowly either. Oh, but there's Daikisoen at times like this. I have a free red miso soup coupon, so I sat at the counter and when asked if I wanted clam miso soup or red miso soup, I hesitated but chose red miso soup because I shouldn't eat too much. I ordered just a little bit of sushi - tuna for 110 yen, and squid for 110 yen. It was so delicious. I quickly finished eating in 5 minutes and off to work. The red miso soup was free, so the total bill was 220 yen. That was a quick way to eat, but I shouldn't eat too much because I have to go to work right away, right?

I visited around 6:00 pm alone. It is located on the west side of Shijo Shinkyogoku. This is a revolving sushi chain operated by the seafood wholesaler Daiki Suisan. Established in 1975 as a seafood wholesaler. Fresh seafood, especially from Sakaiminato in Tottori Prefecture, is delivered to the stores on the same day through a distribution system, ensuring excellent freshness. Here are some menu items: - Plate for 100 yen (tax included 110 yen): tuna, squid, squid legs, sweet shrimp, egg, pickled eggplant, hamburger, mixed inari, corn salad, tuna salad, okra and dried bonito, natto, squid natto, pickled radish roll, cucumber roll, cucumber and shiso roll, plum and shiso roll, kampyo roll - Plate for 150 yen (tax included 165 yen): bigeye tuna, shrimp, squid (with sudachi), spear squid, pickled mackerel, grilled squid legs, tuna with green onions, seafood salad, dried squid fisherman's style, natto roll - Plate for 200 yen (tax included 220 yen): aurora salmon, live horse mackerel, octopus, shrimp with frost, whelk, grilled shrimp with mayonnaise, green onion tuna, abundant fish roll, tekka roll - Plate for 250 yen (tax included 275 yen): bluefin tuna lean meat, live sea bream, onion salmon, flounder fin, octopus with frost, grilled salmon, salmon avocado, shrimp avocado, grilled conger eel, eel and cucumber roll, hole roll - Plate for 300 yen (tax included 330 yen): live sea bream with frost, large shrimp, large boiled conger eel (one piece), firefly squid, eel, red snow crab, crab miso, salmon roe, top tekka roll - Plate for 350 yen (tax included 385 yen): scallop, bluefin tuna medium fatty tuna, bluefin tuna fatty tuna (one piece), aurora salmon fatty tuna, marinated herring roe, shrimp fry roll, Daiki deluxe (aurora salmon fatty tuna/salmon roe/salmon), three kinds of natural fish (varies depending on availability) - Plate for 400 yen (tax included 440 yen): live horse mackerel belly, grilled horse mackerel belly, grilled salmon fatty tuna, grilled scallop, extra large eel (one piece), red snow crab meat, fatty tuna tekka roll, bluefin tuna comparison (fatty tuna/lean meat) - Plate for 500 yen (tax included 550 yen): extra large red shrimp, bluefin tuna collar fatty tuna (one piece), bluefin tuna fatty tuna, mountain of salmon roe - Plate for 700 yen (tax included 770 yen): fresh sea urchin, Hokkai deluxe (red snow crab meat/fresh sea urchin/salmon roe), bluefin tuna deluxe (fatty tuna/lean meat/medium fatty tuna), large shrimp deluxe (red shrimp/grilled red shrimp/large shrimp) - Plate for 950 yen (tax included 1,045 yen): bluefin tuna assortment (fatty tuna/lean meat/medium fatty tuna/bluefin tuna/bigeye tuna) I tried the following dishes: - Ise tuna lean meat (one piece) 150 yen (tax included 165 yen) - Tuna 100 yen (tax included 110 yen) - Tuna lean meat 250 yen (tax included 275 yen) - Bluefin tuna collar fatty tuna (one piece) 500 yen (tax included 550 yen) Overall, I enjoyed the various flavors of tuna. It was fortunate that the Ise tuna fair was being held. Ise tuna is a brand tuna from Ine Town in Kyoto, where the bluefin tuna caught in the Sea of Japan during the summer is fattened until winter to enhance its value. It is semi-aquaculture, so it is said to be close to natural.

A few minutes' walk from Kawaramachi Station in Kyoto. I stopped by here today. The interior of the restaurant has counter seats and table seats, and there may be seats on the second floor as well because there are stairs. The menu is like a typical conveyor belt sushi restaurant. In this day and age, the belt is moving but there isn't much sushi on it. You order by calling the staff directly, not using a touch panel. Now, onto the food! First up is the tuna, but it was disappointing as it was not thawed properly. I was a bit worried if this was a sign of things to come, but the rest of the sushi was fine. The sushi is not priced at 100 yen each, so the size of the sushi is decent. It's better to snack lightly rather than eat until full. So, thanks for the meal. Since it's a conveyor belt sushi restaurant, the whole process from entering to leaving is smooth, so it's good even when you're in a hurry.

This is a time-shifted post. The visit date may not necessarily match the posting date. I took a break while walking and visited a conveyor belt sushi restaurant. I tried to order the "tuna feast," but they were out of bintcho, so I couldn't. Instead, I got the "tuna trio" for 770 yen, which included fatty tuna, medium fatty tuna, and lean tuna. Simply put, the fatty tuna was the best. By the way, it seems that Daiki Suisan sources their tuna from around the world. Thank you for the meal.

[Spot Name] Daiki Suisan Conveyor Belt Sushi Kawaramachi Sanjo Branch [Visit Date] March 2021 [Spot Description/Experience] The interior of the restaurant has many table seats and counter seats. When my friend and I visited as a pair, we were guided to the counter seats, so I think the table seats are more suited for larger groups. There was a staff member in front of us, constantly sending sushi down the lane, but they seemed a bit grumpy and rough, which made me feel a bit scared. The restroom is located on the 2nd floor. [Payment Methods] Payment can be made with cash or credit card. It is important to note that some other Daiki Suisan branches only accept cash. [Menu Ordered] - Value Sushi Set 1,091 yen - Assorted Sushi Set 1,364 yen

Hello everyone, good job. Why is Monday so sleepy zzzzz When I think that a new week is starting today... yawn (⊃ωｰ`)zz Can someone push my motivation switch please --------cutting line-------- December, Kyoto, 2nd day, 4th bar near Shijo Kawaramachi. We did a 3-bar crawl, each bar only taking... 30 minutes!! Well, even if we wanted to take it slow... right? (;'∀') So, just now "Suiba Shijo Kawaramachi" and "Tomisushi" were full, but it's only been 30 minutes and both are still full (-_-;) Then my dad said, "We've had enough for today, let's grab some sushi on the way back." Once he mentioned sushi, my head and stomach were already in that mode. "Daiki Suisan Kaiten Sushi Shinkyogoku" my dad decided. "Oh, this place is just a chain restaurant, you know?" I protested, but my dad's mind was made up. So we had a little snack and finished. Total time spent, including the restroom, 15 minutes!! My dad left for the hotel ahead of me... Huh? The sushi taste? Well, yeah, that's about right. Thank you for the meal.

I went to my second "senbero" spot. It's rare to find places with umeshiso maki, right? The customers were mostly foreigners and all the staff spoke English fluently, which was really nice.

I like the plum and shiso maki. I forgot to take a photo of the sushi.

I often visited this place when I went to Kyoto. The set meals are really worth it and always enjoyable! The portions are generous and the taste is great.

It is located inside the Shin Kyogoku shopping street. There is a small shop with a conveyor belt sushi lane. The cost performance depends on the type of sushi. If you only eat 100 yen plates, you can eat for less than 1000 yen, which is enough for me. There are also plates priced at 150, 200, and up to 700 yen depending on the type of sushi. They also have a la carte menu. The price is determined by the color of the plate. The taste is average.

The restaurant was closing in 1 hour, so there were few recommended items available. It seems they offer freshly sourced ingredients for the day.

I did a takeout. The toppings were thick compared to a 100 yen conveyor belt sushi. It included unique toppings like seared sea bream, which made me happy. There were also discounted toppings available that day, so I purchased some additional ones. I now want to eat at the restaurant instead of doing takeout next time!

Recently, I've been seeing Daiki Suisan popping up everywhere, and now they have a location in Shinkyogoku as well. They offer incredibly cheap and delicious seafood tendon bowls, such as the daily seafood tendon and daily shrimp tendon, at unbelievable prices. This kind of price disruption may be putting pressure on the struggling eateries, similar to how supermarkets once crushed local shops in shopping streets. However, the deals are so good and the food surprisingly tasty, so it seems like they will have to come up with a way to compete. On this day, they were serving a mackerel tendon bowl.
