What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Established in 1974. A sushi restaurant serving fresh seafood from the rough waters off Cape Erimo. The second-generation owner trained in Kyoto and took over in 2010. The spring 'Erimo Uni' (sea urchin) is full of ocean aroma with exceptional sweetness and richness. Their aged whelk technique is unmatched. TripAdvisor #1 in Erimo-cho (4.6/5).

Many repeat visitors say 'seriously delicious Erimo sushi', 'the uni is delicious even in February - raised on seaweed, full of ocean aroma', 'the whelk aging technique is wonderful'. TripAdvisor 4.6/5, #1 in Erimo-cho. Tabelog 85 reviews, 1,890 saves.
