JR Tennoji Station is directly above the complex building, Tennoji Mio Plaza Building. The 10th and 11th floors of the main building of Mio and the 4th floor of the Plaza Building are dedicated to a restaurant area. Especially the 4th floor of the Plaza Building is very convenient as it is just two floors up from the pedestrian bridge in Tennoji. I often use this place for lunch. The northern area of the Plaza Building on the 4th floor has been renovated, and on April 28th this year (2023), four new shops opened, followed by this sushi restaurant opening on May 10th, a little later. This time, despite it being past 2 pm and having missed lunch, they still had lunch sets available, so I decided to visit this restaurant for the first time. This is a shop based in Wakayama, with two shops in Wakayama City, one in Iwade City, and one in Osaka, located in Umeda's Hankyu Department Store and along the Chuo Ring Line in Sakai City. And now they have opened a branch in Tennoji as well. The name of the restaurant, "Edomae" Kaiten Sushi "Kishu" Yaichi, is somewhat hard to understand whether it's Edomae or Kishu, but it seems to be sushi that is "Edomae-style" with a focus on local Wakayama seafood. The interior of the shop is a modern Japanese style, with a counter seat equipped with a rotating table on the entrance side, and tables in the back, totaling 60 seats. Since I was alone, I was guided to the counter seat. In front of me, the chef's hands were moving swiftly. It seems like you can enjoy freshly made sushi. This raised my expectations. Each seat is equipped with a tablet. Orders are placed using this tablet. Instead of sushi rotating on the table, there are cards with pictures of the sushi rotating. Regrettably, I have no experience of elegantly picking up sushi, so I ordered the "Ajiro Lunch Set (Kishu, 1,430 yen)" from the tablet. While waiting for the sushi to be served, I enjoyed some tea. The tea is in tea bag form, with three types: Sencha, Hojicha, and Genmaicha. As expected, the tea faucet was installed at the seat, typical of a conveyor belt sushi restaurant. Without much wait, Chawanmushi (savory egg custard) and red miso soup were brought out, followed by the sushi lined up on the sushi geta (wooden sushi plate) handed to me by the chef in front of me. There are 9 pieces of sushi, and additionally, there is a thick tamagoyaki (rolled omelet). In the middle lies a splendid anago (conger eel). The knife work on the toppings and the slight searing show the effort put into each piece. The nigiri sushi includes toro salmon mayo aburi (seared), maguro (tuna), yari ika (spear squid), aburi (seared) scallop, tai carpaccio, anago, and amaebi (sweet shrimp). In addition, there are ikura (salmon roe) and ikura gunkan (salmon roe battleship). The white and red fish have a firm texture, indicating their freshness. The squid is chewy and sweet. The sweet shrimp has been blanched, enhancing its umami. The seared toppings seem to have been seared on a grill rather than with a burner. The tai carpaccio with arugula as a condiment is exceptionally flavorful. And the anago is incredibly tender and melts in your mouth. The umami of the claw is also delightful. The shari (sushi rice) is a blend of Wakayama-produced Hino Hikari and Kinu Hikari rice. The vinegar used is red vinegar. The shari holds together well. The chawanmushi contains typical ingredients such as ginkgo nuts, shrimp, and chicken, and has a light flavor. The red miso soup has plump asari clams in it. All this for 1,430 yen is incredibly affordable! It's a very worthwhile dish. There were not many customers yet, perhaps because it's not well known, but I believe it will become a popular spot once word gets out. I will definitely revisit.

There is a new sushi restaurant on the 4th floor of MIO Plaza building! I went around 4pm so there weren't many people and it was quiet! I usually don't like thick sushi toppings, but the toppings here are soft and I can eat as many as I want! It was delicious ♡( ˶'ᵕ'˶)

When I went to Tennoji, I wanted to eat sushi and stumbled upon this place. It was late, so I was able to get in smoothly. The staff were polite and the sushi was delicious. I enjoyed every single piece!

In early August, I decided to have lunch in Tennoji. Instead of wandering around, I decided to visit the newly opened "Edomae Conveyor Belt Sushi Kishu Yaichi" on the 4th floor of the Tennoji MIO Plaza building. The restaurant is bright and clean, with a variety of sushi options ranging from 137 yen to 913 yen. I sat at the counter and ordered using a tablet. The sushi was not on a conveyor belt, but was freshly made by skilled sushi chefs. The menu had a wide variety of tuna options and other sushi choices. The staff was friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, I forgot to take photos of the sushi, but overall it was a great dining experience.

On a scorching Sunday, I took my grandchildren to Abeno Harukas to visit the observatory. Before heading up to the observation deck, I asked them, "What do you want to eat for lunch?" Grandma said, "Yakiniku!" The third grader said, "Sushi!" The kindergartener was puzzled as both of them didn't want to give in! Anticipating that the kindergartener wouldn't eat much, I suggested, "How about we have a little sushi first and then go for yakiniku later?!" Grandma agreed, so we started with sushi. The restaurant was bright and clean, and the staff were polite and efficient. We ordered using a tablet. The kindergartener doesn't like wasabi, but you can order wasabi-free using the tablet. I had a variety of tuna and squid sashimi, which were fresh and delicious. The slices were quite thick and the horse mackerel was especially good. The older brother, who was insisting on yakiniku earlier, was happily munching on sea bream and natto rolls! He ate quite a lot, enough to make us laugh. As expected, the kindergartener was done after about four plates! Grandpa and grandma enjoyed sushi with their grandchildren, listening to stories about school and laughing, making it a fun time. Although the prices were a bit high, the quality of the sushi was worth it. There were no conveyor belt sushi dishes, all orders were made fresh. The term "conveyor belt sushi" might disappear soon! Thank you for the meal.

I am "Noronori," who mainly walks around eating lunch, mainly in Sakai. I have been to restaurants in Wakayama and Nakanoshima, and I remember it was delicious. I sat at the counter seat and placed my order using a touch panel. Without thinking too deeply, I chose the "Nachi" lunch menu, which is a good deal on weekdays. It costs 1,980 yen. It includes 10 pieces of fatty tuna, shrimp, fresh salmon, flying squid, lean bluefin tuna, amberjack, sea urchin, small clams, grilled conger eel, and fresh sea bream. It also comes with red miso soup and steamed egg custard. Thank you for the meal.

There are three stores in Osaka: Sakai Chuo Kanko store, Hankyu Umeda store, and Tennoji MIO store. They offer fresh sushi ingredients sourced directly from Wakayama, and their popular sushi features original red vinegar rice. You can enjoy the sushi crafted by skilled chefs starting from 137 yen per plate, which is a great deal. They also have a variety of side menu items, including seared sushi with a delightful smoky flavor. The "Honmaguro Sanmai" for 913 yen allows you to taste three types of bluefin tuna: chutoro, otoro, and akami. The "Shogun" for 825 yen is a luxurious gunkan sushi topped with ikura, crab, negitoro, and uni. It has a satisfying size and is delicious. They also offer a value set menu including assorted sushi, red miso soup, and chawanmushi starting from 1,430 yen. (Available on weekdays from 11:00 to 17:00, weekends from 11:00 to 15:00) On the table, you can choose from green tea, hojicha, and genmaicha.

"Edomae Kaitenzushi Kishu Yaichi" was founded in Wakayama. They have 3 stores in Wakayama, as well as locations in Osaka at Hankyu Umeda and Sakai. The third store, located in Tennoji Mio Plaza, opened in May this year. The bright and welcoming interior is where the chefs energetically prepare sushi. There are counter seats with a rotating conveyor belt as you enter, and many table seats towards the back. Orders can be placed using a touch panel, with a wide variety of a la carte menu items available. For those looking for a quick meal, there are also 4 types of set menus. The fish is mainly sourced directly from Wakayama and other regions nationwide, with no fishy smell and a fresh, firm texture. Each dish is carefully prepared, with attention to detail even in the knife work. The prices are slightly higher for a conveyor belt sushi restaurant, but the quality justifies it. It is suitable for individuals dining alone or families, with friendly and attentive staff making the dining experience comfortable and enjoyable."

It's a revolving sushi restaurant, but the sushi doesn't flow on the lanes. Instead, you order using a touch panel, and the chef hands you the sushi directly. They mainly use fresh fish from Wakayama, Kishu. We had: Honmaguro Zanmai x2, Wakayama Shirasu, Shima Aji, Hamo Yuduki, Uni x2, Yari Ika, Aburi Geso, Shogun x2, Soft Anago, Amaebi, Tako Geso Karaage, Chawanmushi, and Black Sawamura Milk Ice Cream. The quality was really good, so definitely give it a try!

Oh, my late grandma used to take me to this place a lot. Whenever she asked if I wanted to go out for a meal, it was almost always Yaichi Sushi, her favorite pick. It's quite nostalgic that this restaurant has opened in Tennoji. The prices are higher than 100 yen sushi, but still reasonable compared to other places in Osaka and Wakayama.

Today, I visited a revolving sushi restaurant called "Edomae Kaiten Sushi Kishu Yaichi" at Tennoji MIO Plaza with three friends. The restaurant just opened this May. We were seated in a booth since there were four of us. We ordered our sushi using a touch panel instead of it flowing on a conveyor belt. The sushi we ordered arrived quickly. We enjoyed salmon, sweet shrimp, egg, squid, tuna belly, and my favorite, beer. The menu also included grilled eel, red miso soup, large shrimp, green onion tuna, quail with yam, fresh sea bream, scallop, and eel roll. It was convenient to have a revolving sushi restaurant within walking distance. They also offer lunch specials on weekdays and Saturday afternoons.

♪Kishu~ Street~ Stray bird~♪ (Sung by Itiro Toba) The newly opened high-end conveyor belt sushi restaurant "Kishu Yaichi" in Mio, even for lunch, costs at least around 1500 yen, which may be a bit high for the common people~ (*^-^*) Ordering system with a pad... ◎Shrimp tempura roll tax included 264 yen♪ Freshly fried hot shrimp tempura and crispy seaweed are delicious! (^_^) ◎Clam soup tax included 264 yen♪ Elegant broth with a large clam is delightful! ◎Shrimp nigiri tax included 137 yen♪ The quality is indeed high, so even if there is a set for around 1000 yen for lunch, it would be very satisfying~ (^^)v

Date of visit: May 11, 2023, Thursday Time of visit: Around 7:30 PM Number of people: 2 adults I visited the newly opened restaurant on May 10th, Wednesday. There were counter seats and table seats, and the table seats were very spacious! - Bluefin Tuna Otoro (¥825 including tax) - Salmon Toro (¥561 including tax) - Seared Shrimp Tartare (¥484 including tax) I only listed the sushi in the first photo! The sushi was delicious without any fishy smell. I would like to visit again if I have the chance!

I was looking for a late lunch and decided to wander around inside Abeno Harukas Mio. I found a new restaurant towards the back of the Plaza building and decided to give it a try. They had a great variety of teas like hojicha, green tea, and genmaicha which was nice. Since I wasn't looking for a heavy meal, I ordered individual pieces of horse mackerel, sea bream, and shrimp. Unfortunately, all the fish slices were thin. The horse mackerel was okay, but the sea bream and shrimp were disappointing. The rice was decent though, which saved the meal.

Delicious and expensive.
