This is a holiday lunch with my wife. Normally, we only have Sundays off, so we can't use restaurants that are closed on Sundays, but this day was a public holiday and we both had the day off. In the middle of the office district, the Shikishima Building's basement has a few dining options open, but many are closed on weekends. The lighting on the floor is dim. "Sushi Shin Nakamura" has been operating in the same location for a long time, and when we feel like having sushi for lunch in the city center, we used to go there, but they no longer open on Sundays. This visit was probably the first in 7-8 years. It's a popular spot during weekday lunch hours, so we arrived right at the opening at 11:30 am. There are 8 counter seats, one large table for 8, and 5 tables with sunken seating. The interior seemed slightly renovated. There are 5 chefs and 2 waitresses. Customers started coming in one after another, but it seems like many are using reservations. The lunch set menu with good value for money is popular. We ordered two "B sets @ 1,180" each. When ordering, they mentioned that if you don't like certain types of fish, they can replace them with others, which was a nice touch. We were served tea and warm towels and waited for 9 minutes. The set included sushi like tuna (2 pieces), mackerel, white fish, salmon roe, shrimp, crab, salmon, squid, and inari. There were also three types of rolls, cod head soup, and yogurt mousse. The fish slices were thick, and the sushi rice was slightly larger. The vinegar-flavored mackerel was delicious, the crab was a pressed sushi style with king crab meat, and the squid was spear squid. We were completely full by the end. The price for this quality and quantity was unbeatable, making it the best value sushi lunch. Lunch sets start from A set / 980 yen, and all sets can be changed to chirashi sushi for the same price. The "daily bento @ 1,050" with limited quantities and good contents is also popular on weekdays. Each set also includes an extra 1.5 servings of sushi, which should be more than enough for most people unless you're a big eater. By the time we left, the restaurant was fully packed, so making a reservation on Saturdays and public holidays might be wise. If the timing is right, we will visit again. Thank you for the meal.

During the consecutive holidays, I made a reservation in advance through Tabelog and visited the restaurant. Even though our reservation was at 7:00 PM, the restaurant was already full with both counter and table seats occupied. We sat at the counter this time, where we could watch the sushi chef prepare our sushi right in front of us. The sushi was delicious, freshly made and each piece had a thick and rich flavor.

I arrived at the restaurant 10 minutes before the lunch hours ended at 2 pm, and the place was bustling with lunch customers. Since I was the only one left, I quickly ordered the B lunch set, which arrived promptly and I ate it right away. The cost performance of 1180 yen was excellent. Although it's not shown in the photo, the set also came with a soup bowl and coffee jelly for dessert.

I found a restaurant on the same day and made a reservation to visit. The food was all very delicious. The oysters were so smooth, almost like a drink. I felt like I could eat as many as I wanted! The toro tataki that I love was also incredibly delicious! However, when I asked if there was a menu, I was told that they could serve anything and didn't get to see it. The meal started with a suggestion to have a few types of sashimi, without knowing the prices, which made me a bit nervous. The food was tasty and the staff was very friendly, but not being able to see the menu was disappointing.

I have been using this sushi restaurant for a long time, and tonight I went with a friend. We arrived at 7:30 pm, and as usual, the restaurant was full and the chef was very busy. We opted for the course menu, and surprisingly, there was also meat included in the dishes, which was of high quality! The chef's skills and quick thinking were excellent, and he was able to accommodate our sudden visit to the restaurant.

During my trip to Hokkaido, I visited this restaurant that I had been wanting to go to. I made a same-day reservation and was lucky to get a seat. The sushi was delicious, and the sushi chef and staff were very kind, making it a wonderful experience. My son, who was with me, insisted that he wants to revisit this place when we come back to Hokkaido next time. Thank you and see you again!

I revisited the restaurant. This time, I chose the B set one rank lower than last time, but they were so accommodating that they changed the order to tuna when I mentioned that my wife doesn't like shrimp or crab but loves tuna. The B set even came with dessert for only 1,180 yen, which is such a great deal. I ordered 1.5 servings for 1,770 yen, and the cherry salmon, Hokkaido scallops, and bluefin tuna were all so fresh and high-quality that I couldn't believe I was getting such a good deal. I will definitely be going back.

I went with my colleagues from the company. They came on a business trip from Honshu to Hokkaido! They wanted to eat sushi, so I recommended Nakamura-san's place. They were surprised by the quality at this price! They seemed satisfied until the end, and I was relieved too! Thank you for the meal.

It's been a while since my last visit. I had the A lunch, and my wife had the B lunch. We ate at the counter. We asked for the salmon to be removed. The younger generation loves salmon, but the older folks from the Showa era are not so keen on farmed salmon. When the chef heard this, he suggested trying the seasonal cherry salmon. So, we went with that! The A lunch is priced at less than 1,000 yen and comes with miso soup and dessert. It's definitely delicious. The best cost performance at Shikishima Building. We'll definitely be back! ❤️

Sushi restaurant in the underground dining area of Sapporo Station front street building. Always crowded during lunchtime, this popular sushi restaurant. Lately, I've been visiting this dining area frequently. Visited at 11:50, and although the reserved private room was full, I was lucky to get a table seat with a shared table. Originally planned to order a sushi set, but quickly changed my mind (as I noticed more than half of the people were having bento boxes). Ordered the "Daily Bento Box (1050 yen)" which comes with soup and homemade dessert. Sold out by 11:55. The food arrived in about 10 minutes, along with a complimentary "Sasa Sushi". The bento box had a divider with kelp and mayo salad, giving it a casual bento box style. The dishes, both Japanese and Chinese, were well-prepared and delicious. The sushi was a bit small in size. The dessert of the day was kudzu starch jelly. Overall, the taste and service were good, but it didn't feel like eating a bento box at a sushi restaurant, so I personally prefer the sushi set. I'll go for the sushi set next time.

He has come 4 times now. This time I went with my colleague, so I made a reservation the day before and went. I was surprised when I entered the restaurant! There were many people inside. I'm glad I made a reservation. As usual, I had lunch. Dessert was also served at the end, so it felt like a great deal. Thank you for the meal.

Lunch consists of a limited number of bento boxes and three types of nigiri sushi (can be changed to chirashi). It can be increased by 1.5 times. The bento includes sushi and side dishes. They also provide rolled sushi, and dessert is included after the meal. It's a great option for a reasonably priced sushi lunch. The nigiri sushi is delicious, but the rolled sushi with mackerel is especially tasty.

We found this restaurant on Tabelog and visited as a couple. The chef was very friendly and recommended a variety of dishes for us to try, including sashimi, fresh oysters, grilled dishes, and sushi. Everything was delicious, and we had a great time chatting with the chef. The tarako sushi was a completely new experience for us, and the clams were so fresh and tasty. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

Sushi restaurant in Hokkaido. The quality of the fish is top-notch, and the rice is also delicious. The head chef is friendly and makes the dining experience enjoyable. It's a bit on the pricey side, but the food is so good that it's worth it. I would like to visit again in the future.

The A set of nigiri, 1.5 servings for 1470 yen, is neatly presented with one serving arriving first and an additional 5 pieces on a separate plate. The restaurant is clean and always delicious. The only issue is that during lunch hours, it gets too busy and watching the chef work makes me tired too.

Here we are again. It was lunchtime, and today it wasn't as crowded as last time. I sat at the counter seat, but as time passed, more and more customers arrived. I ordered the same lunch as last time (1,380 yen) with miso soup and dessert. It was a slightly luxurious moment. Thank you for the meal. Definitely a repeat visit, haha.

On the final day of my Hokkaido trip, I left the Clock Tower and was unsure where to have lunch. I checked Tabelog for inspiration and went with my gut feeling, choosing "Sushi Shin Nakamura." It turned out to be a great choice, as the restaurant was packed even on a weekday. The sushi was excellent in terms of cost, quality, and portion size. It was a perfect last meal in Hokkaido. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I had been interested in this place for about 8 years, but I never had the chance to go due to it being crowded or bad timing. When I went during lunchtime, it was already full, but luckily there was one seat available at the end of the counter, so I was able to sit down. I had a fantastic lunch for 1,380 yen, which included miso soup and a homemade dessert at the end. The chef was lively and it felt like an old-fashioned sushi restaurant. I will definitely be coming back again. The portion size and service were both excellent, and I left completely satisfied with my lunch. Thank you for the meal. By the way, the inari sushi was complimentary.

I sat at the counter seat and enjoyed chatting with the sushi chef. It was fun to watch the chef's knife skills and see the sushi being made. The food is definitely delicious. It's a lively and enjoyable restaurant.

I had a great time dining with the manager of the Sapporo branch in a spacious private room. The quality and quantity of the food were both excellent, making me feel very happy. They had a variety of local sake to choose from, which added to the enjoyment of the meal. I must visit Sapporo again.

"Sushi Kokoro Nakamura" is a restaurant located in the Shikishima Building, directly connected to the underground pedestrian space that links Sapporo Station and Odori Station. It offers reasonably priced sushi lunches prepared by skilled chefs in the vicinity of Sapporo Station. This time, I ordered the C set, which includes 1.5 servings of sushi served in a sushi tub, 5 additional pieces on a separate plate, soup, and dessert. It's enjoyable to watch the chef skillfully preparing the sushi before it is served. With good value for money and delicious taste, I highly recommend this place! Thank you for the meal. (*´ω｀)
