These guys made the absolutely greatest sushi I have ever eaten! So fresh (you can order from the tanks) and all prepared to order in front of you. If you EVER get to Tokyo, make a special trip here. It is worth it. Delicacies included raw baby octopus marinated with fresh wasabi, sashimi of lean and fatty tuna, scallop sashimi, a variety of fish eggs, raw prawns and, of course, lots of saki!
