I was thinking of going to Kizuna Sushi, but I was worried that I wouldn't be able to eat a lot, so I gave up. Instead, I visited Uzushio near Akihabara Station for the first time. The prices start from 100 yen per plate, which is very reasonable. Today is my day off from drinking, so I only had sushi. Thank you for the meal! ✨

I arrived in Akihabara around 3 pm, too early for dinner but it seemed like I wouldn't have time to eat later in the evening. So, I decided to go into a conveyor belt sushi restaurant right by Akihabara station. I thought it would be a quiet place, but to my surprise, it was full of customers, mostly foreigners. The sushi was big and delicious, with smaller rice portions. The salmon didn't have any onions on top.

I casually stopped by for lunch. I couldn't decide what to eat before coming here, and since it was a revolving sushi restaurant I had never heard of, I decided to give it a try. I think revolving sushi is the best for a quick solo lunch. I had never tried Kohada before, but I heard on TV that Aya no Gorou loves Kohada and always eats it at sushi restaurants, so I became interested and tried it for the first time. It was surprisingly delicious. Since then, I always order Kohada wherever I go. I also had Otoro, Akami tuna, a large scallop, and a natto roll. I'm not a fan of minced tuna, but I wanted to eat natto so I ordered it. Well, I still don't like minced tuna (laughs).

I had planned to go to a ramen shop, but it was very crowded, so I went to this sushi place as my second choice. Surprisingly, there was also a line outside, but I was able to get in quickly. The restaurant had reduced the number of seats due to COVID-19, and currently, only about 10 people can sit at the counter. The space was small, with a conveyor belt but not many plates going around. You can order using paper order forms at your seat, or verbally. The plates range from 100 to 600 yen, with most being two pieces per plate. There is also a set with three pieces. The sushi chef prepares the sushi by taking rice from a plastic container and adding the toppings. There are no sushi robots. The squid and mackerel were small but cute, while the salmon was decently sized for 100 yen. The skin of the fish was large, and the vinegar was a bit strong. The three types of shrimp were good. The quality matches the price, so if you're okay with that, there shouldn't be any issues. It was a shame that the horse mackerel for 300 yen was sold out.

For dinner, how about some sushi here? "Uzushio," which used to be often seen near Tokyo Station or Yurakucho Station, has disappeared from sight. I used to visit the Yurakucho store quite frequently, so I feel nostalgic as I enter the restaurant. The plate colors (price range) and lineup are almost the same as before. The current revolving sushi industry can be divided into two categories: "low-priced focus seen in major chains" or "high-priced focus on quality." However, around 15-20 years ago when the trend was to set a wide price range based on plate colors, there were quite a few plates priced higher than the quality of the ingredients, making some restaurants feel overpriced after finishing the meal. It's somewhat rare to experience that transitional period, so this place is quite valuable. With a limited selection of plates priced at ¥150-200, I satisfy my hunger with octopus, squid, and gizzard shad, while also enjoying a tekka maki. Come to think of it, I used to eat like this quite often in Yurakucho, and it brings back fond memories. The ramblings of a sentimental old man.

It's Friday afternoon. Today, I have some time off in the afternoon, so I decided to explore Akihabara after visiting Takasaki. I hadn't had breakfast, so my stomach was growling. I saw a conveyor belt sushi restaurant and decided to stop there. The place was quiet, and a Southeast Asian man greeted me in fluent Japanese. I ordered shrimp, eel, cucumber roll, and negitoro sushi. It was a bit less than what I usually eat, but I wanted to try different places in Akihabara. Overall, it was a satisfying meal.

I went to "Uzushio" the other day just to go around. I like to eat what I like when I like. Why am I so selfish? Conveyor belt sushi. It's just conveyor belt sushi, but it's still conveyor belt sushi. I enjoyed it deliciously. Thank you for the meal.

An emergency declaration was issued, so I couldn't drink in my local area after work (lol). I got off at Akihabara Station and headed to this shop. The shop was right by the Electric Town exit, and although I knew of its existence, this was my first visit. Since it was a little early in the evening, the shop with its glass walls was empty (lol). I wasn't sure if they served beer from looking at the menu outside, so I wandered around until a female staff member noticed me and confirmed that alcohol was served until 7 pm. I entered the shop. It's a conveyor belt sushi place, so the prices seemed reasonable. I sat at the counter in a U-shape and ordered a draft beer first. The draft beer was served promptly, and pickled ginger was served as a complimentary appetizer. I ordered the recommended menu item, a platter of three types of tuna and shrimp. Cheers to a hard day's work with the draft beer! The platter of three types of tuna arrived first - lean tuna, marinated tuna, and minced tuna battleship sushi. I took a bite of the lean tuna... hmm! What's with this rice and toppings? The toppings were dry, like they had been sitting in a refrigerated case, and the rice was too sweet and dry. It reminded me of the sushi that used to go around on a conveyor belt a long time ago (lol). The shrimp that was served next included red shrimp, sweet shrimp, and car shrimp. As I was eating, more customers came in and ordered something, but there wasn't much left, according to the staff. Hmm! It's true that the selection seemed limited compared to when I passed by the shop before, so I decided to leave at this point. However, just as I was about to leave, the staff who had been making the sushi until now was replaced. Hmm! Maybe things will change a bit with this change, I thought optimistically, so I ordered another beer and asked for kelp-pickled flounder. This was slightly better than the sushi from earlier, so I got carried away and added a platter of three types of white fish. The sushi was decent, but the flavor was lacking. It's really tough for restaurants in the current situation with the pandemic, and although I've reviewed similar places with this title before, I felt like using it again after a long time (lol). Today's lonely drink ended here~

A sushi restaurant in Akihabara that 90% of people who visit will likely discover. The location seems to be good as there are many customers, and it's one of those rare rotating sushi restaurants where sushi goes around on a conveyor belt. I happened to pass by at just the right time when I felt like eating sushi, so I went in. I think this place has been around for a long time, and I may have used it a few times before. It's a small restaurant, but you can clearly feel its identity as a rotating sushi restaurant with lots of sushi going around on the lanes. Gaijin visitors who come to Akihabara would surely be delighted by this place. Well, I hope they enjoy it. And I would be happy as a Japanese person if they become interested in sushi. As for me, a Japanese person, I was sipping on shochu on the rocks and snacking mainly on blue fish. Before I knew it, I had eaten three plates of sardines haha. Satisfied~ Thanks for the meal!

Clam miso soup for 170 yen, steamed egg custard for 340 yen, autumn specials (3 pieces) for 420 yen, marinated sardines for 140 yen, and large shrimp Genovese and white fish (3 pieces each) for 330 yen each. The only side orders available were miso soup and steamed egg custard, which are not my preferred choices at a revolving sushi restaurant. The sushi items that I enjoyed were the marinated sardines, large shrimp Genovese, and marinated flounder, which were surprisingly delicious. Despite the limited options for side orders, the quality of the sushi was good, making it a potentially cost-effective option if you only focus on certain items. Thank you for the meal.

I used it during a break from work. It is a conveyor belt sushi restaurant located just outside the Denki-gai exit of Akihabara Station. The number of seats is relatively small for a conveyor belt sushi restaurant, and the interior felt a bit cramped. However, the staff were attentive and made ordering and payment smooth. The seating space is a bit tight, making it a little difficult to eat at times. This time, I ordered tuna, marinated tuna, salmon, and ikura sushi. The sushi was delicious, and the size of the toppings was larger than those at a typical 100-yen sushi restaurant, which was nice. There was a bit too much wasabi for my liking, but overall, the freshness and texture of the sushi were good and easy to eat. It is more expensive compared to budget conveyor belt sushi restaurants, but you get decent quality sushi, making it a good option when you want a quick sushi fix. Thank you for the meal.

Just outside JR Akihabara Station, there is a conveyor belt sushi restaurant located under the elevated tracks. I thought it was in a great location for a conveyor belt sushi restaurant, and it turns out it is operated by JR East Japan Food Business Corporation. I had the marinated tuna first, which was one of the rotating dishes. The freshness and flavor were both excellent, a great choice. The horse mackerel was also fresh with no unpleasant smell, and I enjoyed the addition of green onions and ginger. I then had some shellfish and medium fatty tuna while sipping on a chu-hi, and finished with a kanpyo roll. They prepare the nigiri and rolls quickly, which is a plus. About half of the customers were foreigners. While the freshness of the sushi was good, the prices were a bit high, so it might be worth walking a bit further to find a more affordable option.

The menu is displayed on a rotating table in front of everyone, and like many budget-friendly restaurants, prices are color-coded to indicate different price ranges. However, since the menu is all in Japanese, what can people who don't understand Japanese do other than wait? And do items often get taken by the previous customers?

The sushi was delicious. Many foreigners were using it. It felt different from Kansai sushi and sushi rice, but it was delicious. ✨

I don't go to conveyor belt sushi restaurants often, but I stopped by because I wanted to eat quickly and leave. I ended up eating quite a lot, but it only cost around 2500 yen.

The rotating dishes were disappointing, but the golden eye snapper, amberjack, and large red shrimp were delicious.

A craftsman's shop where they cannot say "thank you". Plates rotating color-coded by price. The taste is decent for the price, but slightly lacking. Of course, places like Sushiro or Kura Sushi have better value. I stopped by because it's close to the station, but the balance between price and taste aside, both the craftsman and the staff seem to be numb to the many customers coming from the station, and their attitude is disappointing.
