As the sole sushi restaurant in Omoide Yokocho, it has sustained 60+ years since 1961.
Media reviews call the quality 'unbelievable for a yokocho.' Confirmed primarily local regulars, not tourist pricing.

What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

The only sushi restaurant in Shinjuku West Exit's legendary Omoide Yokocho alley. A rare authentic Edomae sushi experience amid Showa-era izakaya surroundings. Known for handmade thick rolled egg and unwavering attention to rice and fish quality. Since its conversion from a yakitori restaurant in 1961, locals and regulars have never stopped coming. The ¥4,400 omakase draws rave reviews: 'Unbelievable for a yokocho.'

Reviews call it 'a miracle that the only sushi restaurant in Omoide Yokocho maintains this quality' and note 'even amid the alley's noise, the chef's work is focused and precise.' 'Always packed with regulars in the evening.' Yahoo Maps 4.08, Tabelog 3.39/107 reviews (researcher's 3.09 was outdated). Primarily local and office worker clientele.
