What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A 50-60 year institution of Niijima-style sushi. Nearly all customers are local islanders — a true insider spot. The signature 'shima-sushi' uses soy-marinated fresh local fish with karashi (Japanese mustard) instead of wasabi, a unique Izu Islands tradition. Certified 'Tokyo Island Ingredient Store.' Lunch ends when the day's fish runs out.

Tabelog 68 reviews, TripAdvisor 4.5/9 reviews. Recurring comments: 'Most customers are islanders,' 'The karashi mustard touch is brilliant,' 'Must stop every time I visit the island.' Featured in Marukome's 'Hakkou Bishoku' web magazine (December 2024) as a restaurant with lines before opening.
