Frommer's Review

This popular, lively sushi restaurant offers the usual raw fish selections, as well as such items as grilled yakitori, shabu-shabu, tempura, tofu (ranging from fried to grilled), and shrimp or crab dishes on an English-language menu. Behind the sushi counter is a fish tank with some rather large specimens swimming around happily until their numbers come up. On the second floor is a robatayaki restaurant popular with office workers after work; an English-language menu here lists grilled vegetables and meats, all priced at ¥380 ($3.60). In the basement is a Japanese-style pub, with all menu items -- like dim sum, ramen noodles, sushi -- priced at ¥399 ($3.80).

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
