While the selection of snacks for drinks is not extensive, the sushi and fish are quite delicious. On this day, I drank, snacked, and then ordered sushi, totaling around 7500 yen per person. I think the quality of the sushi is high and deserves more recognition. However, it seems that restaurants that offer affordable and generous lunch menus tend to receive higher ratings. I can't help but wonder if that's just the way it is. Next time, I want to revisit this place focusing on sushi.

This is a local sushi restaurant that I had always wanted to visit. The raw turban shell sushi had an amazing texture and was delicious.

When I tried to go to Isoka, they were closed! It was already past 8 o'clock, so I called Ryunosushi, but they were full. I decided to take a bus to Fuchu Station and remembered that there was a good sushi restaurant near the police station. I found it - Ichiriki. I sat at the counter and ordered some fresh sushi. The place started to fill up quickly with regular customers, and by 8:30, it was almost full. The appetizer was clam with vinegar miso dressing - quite tasty. I wanted to smoke but the seats were far enough away, so it was okay. When I ordered oysters, they were sold out! So I tried the seared bonito, which was a healthy favorite of the lady. I thought about adding some sweet potato shochu, but managed to resist the temptation. I ordered a bottle of sake. As I sipped and relaxed, I decided to leave it to the chef's choice for the rest of the meal, while the lady chose her favorites. Since it wasn't the season for flounder, I had flounder marinated in kelp. Next was squid. They brought out one oyster, but I forgot to take a picture before devouring it. Then came the lady's favorite, medium fatty tuna. Followed by her other favorite, sardines. Delicious! Let's have some sea urchin next. Oh, it was exquisite! The final push - ark shell and conger eel. Finished off with pickled gourd and a soup. The chef did a great job, the meal was delicious! Now, onto exploring more sushi restaurants in Fuchu. I couldn't decide between Ryunosushi, Isoka, and Ichiriki, as they were all excellent. I'll definitely be back to visit again soon!

Located at the north exit of Fuchu Station, on the first floor of Fuchu Urban Hotel with a brick pattern, there is a sushi restaurant. It has a counter with 9 seats, 2 tables, and 2 private tatami rooms. The restaurant is run by the owner behind the counter and the hostess in the hall. I had lunch on a weekday. When I entered and sat in the corner of the counter, I was given a hot towel. During lunchtime, the counter was filled with elderly regular customers, creating a friendly atmosphere. It seems that the well-built man in a suit is a senior executive from a nearby company. Everyone seemed to be having nigiri sushi, but I ordered a chirashi sushi. The lunch chirashi sushi costs 840 yen and includes medium fatty tuna. It also includes lean tuna, shrimp, scallop, yellowtail, tamagoyaki, and pickled radish. The miso soup served in a bowl contained seaweed. The chawanmushi, a savory egg custard, had shrimp, shiitake mushrooms, and ginkgo nuts inside. It was a standard chawanmushi but was meticulously prepared and very delicious. The chirashi sushi, miso soup, and chawanmushi were all included in the price, and I was completely satisfied.

I had known about this place for a long time, but for some reason, my family has always been loyal to the sushi restaurant "Edoichi" at Kitaguchi since my grandfather's time. However, to my shock, Edoichi suddenly closed down. After that, my children grew up and a new baby was born. Since the older ones eat a lot, I didn't want to take them to a non-conveyor belt sushi restaurant, especially now that Edoichi was gone, so we started going to Magurojin in Fuchu. I had a preconceived notion that Ichiryoku-san's place looked too fashionable from the outside, and it didn't seem like a family-friendly restaurant. But one day, I happened to pass by and saw that they offered lunch, so I decided to give it a try. To my surprise, it was a normal sushi restaurant with a calm atmosphere, not as fashionable as I had thought. There were two small tatami rooms, two table seats, and a counter in the back. Since it was just after the 11:30 am opening, there were no other customers. I ordered the 840 yen chirashi and nigiri, as well as the 1260 yen 1.5 servings of nigiri. The fish was fresh and the homemade tamagoyaki was slightly sweet. I ended up chatting with the owner, who mentioned that they had also tried Sushiro and Magurojin. It seems like they have done their research.

Sushi Restaurant Ichiryoku @ Higashimurayama, Tokyo I was surprised by the prices at this authentic sushi restaurant, and the quality of the ingredients is excellent! Located on the first floor of the Urban Hotel building between the road leading to Fuchu Police Station and Koshin-sama Street, north of Fuchu Station on the Keio Line. The entrance is wide and quite noticeable. Sushi sets range from 1,050 yen for the plum set to 2,625 yen for the special set, which is quite reasonable. Your preferences are also clearly listed on the menu, ranging from 105-753 yen per piece. You can even order individual pieces. Inside the restaurant, there are three small raised tatami seating areas, two tables, and an L-shaped counter in the back, creating a cozy atmosphere. The sushi chef is behind the counter, exuding a true sushi artisan vibe. The service staff, including the owner's wife, are very attentive and leave a positive impression. The chef works quickly, serving up delicious sushi at a good pace. It seems they only use seasonal ingredients, as there were no out-of-season shrimp or trumpet shellfish. All the ingredients were fresh and delicious, truly enjoyable. We also tried the grilled scallops and simmered bamboo shoot side dishes, both of which were excellent. Especially the bamboo shoot dish served in a red lacquered bowl was so elegantly seasoned and presented that I couldn't help but mutter "delicious." We each added five pieces of our favorite sushi to the special set, along with the two side dishes mentioned above, for a total of 8,000 yen. This restaurant offers great value for the price. I heard they used to be located on the old Koshu Highway, but moved here 14 years ago. I will definitely visit again!

I had been hesitant to enter this restaurant for over a decade due to its somewhat intimidating exterior and the bustling atmosphere of Isetan. However, I finally gathered the courage to step inside. Despite the early evening hour, the place was packed. The simple and clean counter had the head chef working alone. I decided to try the medium fatty tuna, and it was unexpectedly delicious. The ark shell was thick and sweet, the bonito, sea urchin, clam, squid, egg, conger eel, all the toppings were surprisingly satisfying. The rice and the way the sushi was made were just to my liking, very delicious. I regret not coming here sooner, but this place will definitely become a regular spot for my family from now on.

My husband had a day off on a weekday, so we went out for lunch. Both of us ordered 1.5 servings each with chawanmushi included, for a total of 1260 yen. It was around 1 PM, so the place was just starting to empty out, with 3 customers leaving and one person sitting at the counter. That person was a smoker, but they made sure to quickly smoke and put it out once we arrived. After they left, it was just the two of us left as customers. We sat at the counter and watched a man who seemed to be a sushi chef prepare our sushi. He was a casually dressed older man. The sushi was then served, which included tuna, flounder, scallops, shrimp, tamagoyaki, and kappa maki. I forgot the rest (laughs). The chawanmushi that came a little later had a really delicious broth. As for the sushi... it wasn't bad, but it didn't stand out as particularly delicious either. The woman who seemed to be the chef's wife tried to engage us in conversation, but for some reason, the atmosphere in the restaurant felt cold and lacking in energy. A restaurant without any standout features makes it difficult to want to come back again.

When going to Fuchu for work, I always struggle to decide where to have lunch. It seems like there are plenty of options towards the direction of Ookunitama Shrine from the station, but when I had business in the northeast direction from the station, the highly-rated sushi restaurant, Miko, was still under preparation. So I ended up visiting Ichiryu nearby. I ordered 1.5 servings of nigiri for 1260 yen. While waiting, I stared at the conch and what looked like a red sea bream in the tank right in front of me. The sushi was made efficiently and served quickly. It consisted of 10 pieces of nigiri and a kappa roll. Miso soup and a tea cup were also included. The size of the sushi was slightly smaller than usual, but the kappa roll was delicious, especially the rice. I really enjoy sushi, but this experience was just average. However, the relaxed atmosphere without any tension was a plus point.

I have used this place several times, but this time I will provide an objective evaluation. When it comes to sushi restaurants in Fuchu, I personally don't have a clear image, but after reading some reviews, I decided to try out this place called "Ichiryoku." The exterior of the restaurant gives off a very clean and elegant vibe, with no conveyor belt for sushi. As you enter, there are a few table seats and a counter and raised seating area at the back. It may be a bit challenging for large groups to dine here, so it's more suitable for solo diners or small groups. The atmosphere is not bad, but not outstanding either. In terms of food, they mainly serve sake, with a variety of famous brands from different regions, making it a good choice for sake lovers. The dishes, such as sashimi and grilled items, before the sushi, are quite satisfying. They offer set menus like Mats, Take, and Ume, which are easy to understand for those who don't often visit sushi restaurants. Also, individual orders are priced on the menu, so you can easily order without hesitation. Overall, the pricing is reasonable, making it a place you can dine at regularly. The head chef and the lady in charge are very friendly, so I recommend sitting at the counter and enjoying authentic Edo-style sushi, especially for beginners at non-conveyor belt sushi restaurants. One thing to note is that this place allows smoking, which may make non-smokers uncomfortable (although I am a smoker myself). In my experience, non-conveyor belt sushi restaurants tend to be non-smoking. I have been reprimanded by other customers for smoking in a place that allows it before. While I understand that smoke can ruin the experience, sushi is originally a food for the common people, so I hope people won't be too strict about it. Apologies for the long message. Thank you.

I have been going to this sushi restaurant for over 20 years since I was a child. It is located in a corner on the east side of the area where various restaurants are scattered near Fuchu Station North Exit. When it comes to sushi restaurants, it is common to have a variety of toppings, so I don't need to mention each topping. However, the eel here is special... I eat eel at various places, but that warm feeling is unique to Ichiryoku! If you love eel, you must try this exceptional dish at least once. Depending on the location, quantity, and time, they also offer delivery services.
