What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Founded in 1717 (Kyoho 2), the birthplace of sakura mochi, situated along the Sumida River near Chomeiji Temple gate. The unique method of wrapping mochi in salted cherry leaves, invented by Shinroku Yamamoto, has been passed down unchanged for 300+ years. Lines form during cherry blossom season; local fans visit year-round for this Edo-era taste.

TripAdvisor 3.9/48 reviews (#1 in Mukoujima out of 59). Many regulars posting 'a must-visit during cherry blossom season' and 'I come to buy several times a year.' Jalan rating 4.6. The faithful adherence to the original 300-year recipe is praised on X/Twitter.
