I ordered the chef's recommended 5-piece nigiri with akami, kamatoro, zuwai, simmered anago, and uni. I didn't feel like having tempura or donburi, so I decided to go with the chef's recommendation. I met a foreigner at a cafe near my office in the morning and we had a great time chatting. I have talked to around 100 people so far, but it's rare to meet the same person two days in a row. However, today I ran into the guy from Luxembourg that I met yesterday, so I suggested we go to Tsukiji together. We ended up at a sushi restaurant called "Magoemon" which was quiet, had great service, and delicious sushi. The sushi was made with vinegar rice that was perfectly balanced and the uni was of high quality. The 67-year-old chef, Mr. Eto, had experience working at a hotel in Dalian, China, and had also trained local chefs. The conversation was enjoyable, and at the end, we were even given a gift. Overall, it was a great dining experience with excellent service.

This was my second visit to this restaurant. Just like last time, I was able to get in without waiting in line. After enjoying some sushi at the famous Tsukiji market, this place has become a regular stop for me. Once again, I was seated at a table without having to wait. It was really hot outside, so a refreshing glass of iced tea hit the spot. The white fish sashimi was surprisingly delicious. The sushi was also great, with small portions of rice that balanced well with the fish. Despite the crowd of tourists, this restaurant provided a calm and peaceful dining experience away from the hustle and bustle of the market.

Having lunch in Tsukiji's Chuo Ward. The inbound tourists have returned, and Tsukiji Outer Market is bustling with activity. I wandered around aimlessly, looking for a less crowded restaurant, and decided to try "Maguroya" for the first time. You can see the inside of the restaurant from the outside, and it has a somewhat open and traditional Tsukiji atmosphere. Inside, there are table seats on the right side, a counter with 10 seats on the left side, and 2 seats near the entrance. There were 2 chefs at the counter, and the restaurant was managed by 1 male and 2 female staff members. Although it is primarily a sushi restaurant, tempura also seems to be a specialty. I requested a cold green tea, which turned out to be a soft drink and cost 380 yen. It felt strange to pay for tea at a sushi restaurant... I ordered the "Maguro Nigiri (excluding tax 3300 yen)". A cold green tea was served first. Since it was hot outside, I drank it quickly. The nigiri sushi arrived all at once on a plate in less than 5 minutes. There was no explanation of the types of fish. Salmon, sea bream, fatty tuna, yellowtail maybe?, lean tuna, squid, horse mackerel, scallop, shrimp, and tekka maki. The amount of rice was a bit small, and there were no particularly memorable types of fish. The chefs didn't seem too busy, and there was no conversation. However, the female staff member in charge of the hall was very kind and provided excellent service. When paying the bill, she said, "The tempura is also very delicious, so please come again!" with a cheerful attitude. (Visit Date: 3/15)

While enjoying the atmosphere of the Tsukiji Outer Market, I was looking for a place to have lunch. I came across this restaurant with an open layout and a counter. I ordered a seafood bowl and sea urchin chawanmushi. The sea urchin on top of the chawanmushi was cold, which surprised me a little. Is this how it's supposed to be? I ate it by sinking the sea urchin into the warm chawanmushi. The seafood bowl was delicious. Not only the seafood but also the sushi rice was tasty. I can't quite describe it, but it was different from the sushi rice I usually eat. My friend ordered a set of seared sushi and tempura. The tempura was highly recommended, and my friend was very pleased with it. There were many foreign visitors and Japanese tour groups at the restaurant. It's a place where you can experience the unique atmosphere of Tsukiji.

Located in the outer market of Tsukiji, "Tsukiji Magoe Mon" offers a selection of counter sushi and freshly fried tempura. Situated on a bustling street near Tsukiji Market Station, the restaurant features an open interior with a counter seating for about 8 people and three spacious table seats. Known for their tempura, the menu includes options like tempura and sushi sets, seafood bowls, and chirashi sushi. During this visit, we ordered the following: - 10 pieces of nigiri sushi - Chawanmushi (steamed egg custard) - Miso soup - Flounder - Red snapper - Lean tuna - Scallop - Horse mackerel - Medium fatty tuna - Salmon - Octopus - Eel - Tamago (sweet omelette) The sushi was elegantly presented, with each piece featuring a small, delicate size of rice and fish. The white vinegar rice had a light acidity and a sticky texture that complemented the toppings well. The flavors of the fish were enhanced by the acidity, particularly with the sea bream and scallop. The eel had a slightly bitter taste, adding to its unique flavor profile. While the portion size was a bit small for a set menu, the overall experience of dining at Tsukiji Magoe Mon was enjoyable, offering a true taste of the Tsukiji market atmosphere. The restaurant's specialty tempura and eel dishes are recommended, providing a satisfying dining experience amidst the lively Tsukiji ambiance.

Happy New Year. My second dining out of the year was on New Year's Day in Tsukiji. I visited a restaurant that I had been curious about for a while since the other places I wanted to go to had long lines. I ordered a tempura set for 3300 yen, which included medium fatty tuna, horse mackerel, salmon, scallop, anago sushi, negitoro mini bowl, and tempura with shrimp, white fish, squid, carrot, lotus root, pumpkin, and shishito pepper. It was decently delicious. The horse mackerel sushi was particularly tasty. However, I found it strange that they left the sushi sitting out while they made the tempura. The restaurant was empty, yet they made me sit at the counter, which I didn't appreciate. It was New Year's Day, so I wasn't expecting super fresh fish, but I believe they could have prepared the ingredients better to enhance the flavors. It felt like they were offering subpar quality fish at Tsukiji prices. I actually enjoyed a fast food muffin more than this meal. The service was good, probably because of the manager's good training, as there was no unnecessary chit-chat among the staff despite the empty restaurant. Thank you for the meal.

Since there was a solicitor at the door, we felt a bit hesitant to enter, but the shop seemed quiet so my husband and I went in. The seafood bowl was very delicious. The fish was tasty, and the balance of rice and vinegar was just to our liking.

When I go shopping in Tsukiji, I usually have lunch there as well. I had seen this restaurant on TV and was looking forward to trying it. I went early in the morning for shopping, so I arrived at the restaurant at an early hour and was the first customer. I was seated at the back of the restaurant and ordered a set of sushi and tempura. I was delighted to receive a cold somen with onsen tamago as a complimentary appetizer (I love eggs). The sushi was delicious, made with precision and care in the Edo style, and the uni on the small sushi plate was sweet and melted in my mouth. The tempura was also freshly fried and excellent. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

I tried a new sushi restaurant that opened in the outer market of Tsukiji. They offer a set menu with sushi and tempura. I asked for sushi without fatty tuna, and they included a variety of white fish and shellfish instead. I enjoyed dishes like hirame and akagai.

I went to a restaurant where you can eat cute temari sushi. I had already eaten breakfast nearby before going, so I wasn't really hungry, but since the sushi balls were small, I was able to finish them easily! I went in the morning so there weren't any other customers, and I was able to relax. The staff were also very kind!

I was approached by a friendly male staff member outside the store who asked, "How about this?" so I decided to go in. I tried the recommended lunch sushi set and the white fish, including the conger eel, was delicious. The rice was well-packed and didn't fall apart, making it easy to eat. The staff member was smiling the whole time and made the experience enjoyable. It was a gloomy day in Tsukiji that day, but the cheerful staff member engaging with customers was a nice touch.

Tsukiji Sushi Restaurant "Tsukiji Magemon" located outside Tsukiji Market was opened about half a year ago. The main attraction this time was the "Temari Sushi" that the beautiful woman I was with had ordered in advance. The sushi balls were small but just the right amount! The toppings included medium fatty tuna, marinated tuna, squid, scallop, sea urchin, salmon, lotus root, mackerel, conger eel, and tamago. It came with 10 pieces and a bowl of chawanmushi, all for around 1800 yen (price may vary). As expected from a place near Tsukiji Market, the ingredients were fresh. The restaurant had a casual atmosphere, making it a comfortable and enjoyable dining experience. Check out their Instagram page: lunchkirakira (Ginza lunch) with over 17,000 followers!

Sushi and Japanese cuisine have won Michelin stars. The sushi and seafood dishes created by the head chef and sous chef are truly amazing, and considering the price, it's definitely worth it. Looking forward to the next visit!

I really enjoyed the chawanmushi with the perfect temperature. The dashi flavor was just right, so I would rate it 1.5 out of 2.

This is a restaurant that truly lives up to the reputation of Tsukiji.
