Some locals call it overpriced and tourist-oriented, but sea urchin bowl 2,200 yen and shrimp kakiage 1,150 yen show no evidence of 1.5x local price markup.
「地元民はコスパ悪い観光客向け」という一部の声はあるが、価格帯はうに丼2,200円・海老かき揚げ丼1,150円等で地元相場の1.5倍を超える証拠なし。

What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A 60-year-old live-fish restaurant near Cape Inubosaki, said to be Japan's first restaurant with an in-house fish tank. A massive 500-ton tank holds live fish prepared fresh to order. Operated directly by a fish wholesaler, offering outstanding freshness at fair prices.

Yahoo Maps 4.11 from 165 reviews. Many specific comments like '500-ton fish tank is stunning' and 'the shrimp kakiage bowl is outstanding.' Hard to get a table. Some locals say prices are high for what it is, but sea urchin bowl 2,200 yen and scallop butter 572 yen are fair for a fish wholesaler operation.
