Founded in 1950, this 70-plus-year-old sushi restaurant is just 2 minutes from Kinshicho Station South Exit. After the founding chef passed away in July 2024, his son reopened the restaurant on August 3, 2024. Famous for expert conger eel preparation—raw, torched, or simmered—sourced fresh from Toyosu Market. Lunch chirashi under ¥1,000 draws local salarymen for decades.

Reviews praise 'A miracle that a 70-year-old restaurant charges so little,' 'the conger eel preparation is on a completely different level—raw, torched, and simmered each show the chef's skill,' and 'under ¥1,000 for lunch in Kinshicho, nowhere else does this.' Tabelog 3.43/160 reviews. Good reviews continuing after August 2024 reopening; confirmed open as of May 2025.
