Visited for the first time in May 2020 after a long time. I had the thought that I should visit this place regularly, but it's been over 2 years since my last visit. The storm of fresh fish, maintained in excellent freshness through unique sourcing, released to the customers. All the seafood bowls have a very high quality, and as soon as they are served, the tension rises, and the vibes are sure to skyrocket into the atmosphere. It's amazing that you can enjoy such a high-quality seafood bowl at this price. The location is about a 3-minute walk from Honjo-azumabashi Station on the Toei Asakusa Line and about a 20-minute walk from Asakusa Kaminarimon. I wanted to be there for the first round at the opening at 11:30 am, so I decided to walk from Asakusa after finishing some errands there at around 10:20 am. Arrived at 10:42 am. A number table was given to the people waiting in front of the restaurant. Number 2... No way, seriously? There was already a customer ahead of me. The popularity is frightening. I never thought there would be a customer ahead of me. While waiting, I was handed a menu along with the number table. Emperor's bowl, Asakusa bowl, delicious bowl... all of them looked delicious and reasonably priced in the seafood bowl scene. In tourist areas or places where people gather, they often sing about luxurious seafood bowls with shrimp/tuna/aji/amberjack scattered for over ¥2000 or ¥3000. I think they don't even come close to this place. Personally, if someone asks me, "I want to eat a seafood bowl in Tokyo," this place would be the first one to come to mind. There were also recommendations for today, so I quickly made my order within 5 minutes. Main dish: Delicious bowl ¥1980 (sea urchin/tuna/salmon roe bowl) Side dish: Wholesale fish soup ¥473 (fish head soup) Underdog: Large shrimp fry ¥495 Total of ¥3000 for a luxurious lunch. This was my first time ordering fried food here, so I hesitated between horse mackerel fry and shrimp fry, but I chose shrimp. It's okay, I worked hard yesterday on my day off. (laughs) According to the information I overheard in advance, there are three levels of rice in the bowl: normal, medium, and large. Normal and medium are provided at the same price. Large is said to have two types: more rice only and more ingredients if you pay extra. *Depends on the bowl. There is an entrance restriction, and the first rotation smoothly accommodates up to number 8, depending on the number of people. If there are multiple people waiting, it may be up to number 7. I think it's good to go quickly before opening and you can get in up to number 7 or 8. If you're looking for sea urchin, the only choice seems to be the Delicious bowl. A customer asked the staff, "Which one has sea urchin?" and the staff replied, "Only the Delicious bowl." So, it's almost certain. Up to 5 people waiting can sit on simple chairs placed there. While waiting, you can get a small amount of tea like Isodine. That's about it. The order is taken in advance, so the serving after seating is quick. As soon as I took a sip of the self-service tea, the seafood bowl was already served. This is it. Seafood bowls are like this! It seems like you can hear that. The volume is so large, and the lineup is so rich that you might think, "Can't we play baseball with just the number of items?" It's a witty gesture, a joke, or a real thing. If it's a joke, the spoiler should be at the end... (very fast speech) If you visit with your family, you can give sushi to your children, and if you visit as a couple, you can give "sushi present" from your girlfriend to your boyfriend as a conversation starter...

I arrived 15 minutes before the shop opened, but there were already about 15 people waiting. This shop also has a branch at Tokyo Skytree's Solamachi, but those who prefer to visit the main store came here. The lunch menu is a seafood bowl with plenty of fresh seafood ingredients. There were so many menu options that I had a hard time deciding what to eat, but I ended up ordering the "Today's Fresh Fish Great Catch Bowl". It came with miso soup and pickles, making it a seafood bowl set. The bowl was filled with various ingredients, mainly sashimi, and the staff recommended the seafood chirashi for those who want to eat fillets and the Great Catch Bowl for those who want to taste a variety of fish. I ordered the Great Catch Bowl and it was the perfect choice. This popular seafood bowl restaurant in Tokyo offers fresh seafood from Tsukiji fish market every day.

I arrived at the restaurant around 5:30 pm. There was one group of two people already inside. I was considering ordering the Shanghai seafood bowl, but decided to go with the Daikyo bowl, which I enjoyed last time. It arrived in about 5 minutes. At first glance, it looked similar to last time, but the sashimi pieces hidden underneath were much smaller and there was less of it this time, which was disappointing.

Arrived at the restaurant on Saturday at the opening time of 11:30 AM and there was already a line. Managed to enter one hour later. Ordered the delicious bowl and the Tsukiji bowl. The sashimi was of course tasty, but surprisingly the seared dishes were also delicious! Ever since eating uni in Rishiri Island, all other uni has felt lacking... You can choose the amount of rice, and even though I asked for a smaller portion, I was still stuffed. It had been about 3 years since my last visit, and considering the significant price increases nowadays, I was impressed by the restaurant's value for money that seemed almost unchanged. I knew I would get full, so I didn't order it, but the tuna skewers are also really delicious! For those with a big appetite, I recommend trying them alongside the bowls!

We visited the restaurant around noon on a holiday, and there was a line of about 15 people in front of the store. We joined the line as we had some errands nearby. The turnover was surprisingly fast, and we were inside the restaurant in about 30 minutes. The seating was spacious and comfortable. I ordered the Tsukiji Don for 1980 yen, which is a bowl that brings together the flavors of Tsukiji. My companion ordered the Umami Don for 2080 yen, which consists of Hokkaido uni, tuna, and ikura. We decided to skip alcohol as we were driving, and I opted for a regular portion of rice due to feeling a bit tired. When the bowls arrived, we first checked out the presentation. Both bowls had an impressive appearance, with high-quality ingredients. My companion recommended trying the seared tuna skewer, which indeed had a great texture and flavor. The thick slice of fatty tuna on top of the bowl was satisfying and delicious. While all the ingredients were good, some seemed unnecessary for the overall volume. My companion didn't enjoy the tuna tartare as much as the other parts. Overall, we had a satisfying and enjoyable meal with generous portions. It's an interesting place for tourists, but I personally wouldn't wait in line for it again. The service was a bit inconsistent depending on the staff.

Around 11:25, I went to have lunch at the restaurant. I ordered the Shanghai Seafood Chirashi (1,738 yen) with a regular amount of rice. Most people were ordering the miso soup, which tempted me a little, but I decided to pass on it this time. I arrived at the restaurant around 11:25 and found about 15 people waiting in line in front of me. The restaurant opened at 11:30 and people started going in one by one, leaving me with three people ahead of me for the second round. Unfortunately, the Emperor Bowl was sold out by the time I was able to place my order outside the restaurant around 11:50 and entered at 12:00. The restaurant has a counter with 9 seats and about 6 tables for 4 people each. They use a ticket system for orders. Tea is self-service. The Shanghai Seafood Chirashi was delicious, with sashimi, seared fish, and sushi. Everything was tasty and satisfying. The rice portion was decent. I was happy with my meal and would like to try the delicious bowl or the Taiyaki bowl with miso soup next time.

After finishing work in Kuramae, I extended my walk to revisit the Naguchi Sengyo Store near Honjo-Azumabashi Station. Learning from my previous experience, I ordered Shanghai Sen-don for 1,738 yen and a whole fried horse mackerel for 810 yen, both with less rice this time. The seafood bowl was incredibly delicious with an amazing amount of fresh seafood ingredients. It was quite filling and I finished the rice quickly. The fried fish was decent, nothing exceptional, but the oil used seemed good as there was no unpleasant smell. It was fried crispy, but a bit too hard to bite into. I am convinced that this place excels in fresh fish dishes. If this restaurant was closer to my neighborhood, I would definitely visit frequently. Just like how I compared the previous wine to Peter Michael's Sauvignon Blanc "La Pavée Midi", I would like to compare this experience to another Peter Michael wine. It is not as complex as the higher-end Pavée, but the flavors hit your palate directly and bring a sense of pleasure. The Shanghai Sen-don at Naguchi Sengyo Store is a reminder of the joy of eating fresh fish without having to think too much. It is like the 2013 2nd Peter Michael wine "Les Pavots".

Located a 5-minute walk from Honjo-azumabashi Station on the Toei Subway line, and about a 10-minute walk from Tokyo Skytree, this seafood shop is a gem. I had eaten here at the Skytree's Solamachi shopping street before, and wanted to try the main store as well. The atmosphere here is so nice that you might feel like you're on a trip or in Chiba! The menu offers a wide variety of options, making it hard to choose. The owner is a tuna wholesaler from Tsukiji Market, offering tuna dishes at a great value. The tuna skewers and bowls, overflowing with rare cuts of tuna, are particularly popular. I started with some large oysters from Sanriku, which were delicious and reasonably priced at 1210 yen for 2. Next, I tried the raw abalone, which exceeded my expectations at 1210 yen. The horse mackerel sashimi from the Goto Islands in Nagasaki was a steal at 825 yen and incredibly tasty. Highly recommended! The miso soup was rich and flavorful, made with plenty of fish, priced at around 506 yen. I also tried the mackerel simmered in sesame miso, which came as a set meal with a small side of sashimi. While tasty, the set meal seemed a bit lacking compared to the donburi bowls. The deep-fried dishes, crab cream croquette and horse mackerel fry, were okay in terms of portion size but not outstanding. Overall, the prices here felt more affordable compared to dining in Chiba, and the staff were friendly and the food delicious. The shop also offers a variety of takeout sashimi, simmered dishes, and fried foods at even lower prices, attracting many locals. Wish I lived closer!

I didn't quite get it when I came here about 10 years ago, but I've been really into it lately. I'm savoring the joy of delicious seafood bowls that you can get for around 1,000 yen. Among the ones I've had recently, the taste of the ocean parent and child bowl with butter soy sauce was shocking. Not only the raw fish, but the fried food is also delicious. It's crowded around noon on weekdays, but it's nice that you can easily get in after 1 pm!

The Nakaguchi Sengyo store, which has been highly recommended for its delicious food and cost performance, was finally visited. The interior of the store has an atmosphere of a fish market corner. The dish we tried was the Shanghai Seafood Chirashi. It was served in a visually impressive way, like flower petals, and even had tuna nigiri on top. However, the portion size was not as big as seen in the photos. The quality of the ingredients, other than the tuna, was decent. It's important not to have too high expectations, as you might end up thinking "Is this it?" Be cautious. Shanghai Seafood Chirashi for 1,738 yen.

On Sunday evening, I visited a fish market that had the appearance of a traditional fish store and staff with a similar demeanor (laughs). The seafood industry, especially markets and fish stores, all seem to have the same facial expressions, way of thinking, appearance, and even conversation. The Chuo-don, priced at around 2000 yen, was beautifully presented with a variety of sashimi and a scallop shell on the side, adding a nice touch. The shrimp was prominently displayed and looked delicious! However, the highlight was the gindara (sablefish). While the skesodara (pollock) is light, the gindara is known as butterfish for its rich flavor, making it a sophisticated choice from a fish store. The shop operates in two shifts, morning and evening, and even before the 4 o'clock opening, there were already several people waiting in line. Some were shopping, while others were dining in. There was even a family with two children enjoying the gindara set meal. It was great to see such good food education being practiced by the parents! Their high regard for their children and knowledge about food, especially fish, was evident. Located in a residential area, it may not be well-known unless researched, but it is definitely a popular spot in the local community. Wonderful!

The small fish at the Taniguchi Sengyo fish store are so fresh! The seafood flyer is huge and the miso soup is cooked until the bones are soft enough to eat. The tuna tempura is also delicious and reasonably priced. It's the best! \( ˆoˆ )/

Great cost performance! Also, if you go early on a weekday evening, you can enter without any waiting time. Unfortunately, the seafood bowl with plenty of tuna was sold out. I ordered the regular seafood bowl. The rice portion is generous, so I think women will be quite full!

I visited around lunchtime on a weekday. There was only one group waiting in front of me. There were many menu options, but I decided to order the Tsukiji morning market bowl with fish broth. The portion size was impressive. It looked very appealing. It had a variety of toppings such as tuna, sea bream, shrimp, and shellfish, which made me very satisfied. The taste was also delicious. However, what surprised me the most was how delicious the fish broth was. The umami flavor of the broth was amazing, and it was the best fish broth I have ever had. I will definitely go back.

I visited the restaurant on Monday night. It's been about 3 years since my last visit. I ordered the "Dai Gyudon," which is basically a mixed sushi bowl. The restaurant still had it available, so I ordered it. Tea is self-service. The dish arrived in about 7-8 minutes. It came with miso soup and tuna tsukudani. I mixed wasabi with soy sauce in a small dish and enjoyed it with the sushi. There was a generous amount of sushi toppings, including tuna, salmon, squid, octopus, small shrimp, salmon roe, white fish, egg, and negitoro. The sushi rice was slightly sour and slightly warm. The amount of toppings was greater than the amount of rice, and all of this for 1,290 yen is incredibly cheap. As it is a fish market, the freshness of the fish was excellent, and I was very satisfied with the delicious meal. Thank you for the meal.

Arrived around 12:10 on Friday, June 2023, the restaurant was full inside with one person waiting outside. I was seated in about 5 minutes. The seafood chirashi looked very colorful and appealing. It's a popular restaurant, so I had high expectations. However, I didn't feel like the seafood was very fresh. The seared sushi was delicious.

This is a seafood restaurant owned by a Tsukiji tuna wholesaler that always has a long line before opening. Even on weekdays, there were already 7 groups in line 30 minutes before the 11:30 opening time. Their specialty dish is the "Umami Don" for ¥2,080 (excluding tax), which is a seafood bowl with uni, tuna, and ikura. All the seafood ingredients are delicious, fresh, and generously portioned. The "Arajiru" for ¥250 (excluding tax), a soup with plenty of ingredients, is also recommended.

This is my third time coming here, as I just can't resist the delicious seafood. I arrived 30 minutes before opening and there was already a line of about 10 people! Everyone is so patient, enduring the heat just to satisfy their craving for good food. I ordered the "Umai Don" for 2,288 yen including tax, along with a miso soup for 275 yen. The "Umai Don" includes sea urchin, tuna, and salmon roe, and it lives up to its name in both presentation and taste. The miso soup had fish scraps in it, adding to the overall flavor. The prices here are a bit on the higher side, as expected in a tourist area, but it's definitely worth it judging by the number of elderly customers. Everyone here is a foodie, including myself!

Arrived at 11:10 on Sunday, with a line of over 30 people. The store opened at 11:30, and I entered around 12:10. I received my food at 12:15. I ordered a seafood chirashi (small on rice), miso soup, oyster sampler, and tuna negima skewer. The presentation of the dishes was visually impressive. The chirashi bowl was overflowing with toppings, and there was a piece of tuna nigiri on top! The miso soup was like a hot pot, full of ingredients. The oyster fry and tuna skewer were both large portions. The most surprising part was the taste. The miso soup was incredibly delicious, with a perfect dashi flavor. The quality of the chirashi was also high, especially the tuna. The fried dishes were tasty, but the standout items were the tuna and miso soup. I highly recommend trying them. It was very delicious. Thank you for the meal!

I suddenly felt like eating seafood, so I decided to visit this restaurant that I had been curious about. - Crowdedness I visited 40 minutes before opening on a holiday. There were 5 groups ahead of me. The customers who were 3 groups behind me were informed by the staff that it would be their second round. - Order I ordered the "Asaichi Tsukiji Don" for 1960 yen (excluding tax) and upgraded to the miso soup for an additional 460 yen (excluding tax). The visual presentation was overwhelming. There was an abundance of toppings, making it difficult to decide where to start. There were various types of tuna, red meat, negitoro, sea bream, yellowtail, salmon, ikura, raw shrimp, crab, tamago, shrimp, boiled fish, shellfish, and seared tuna, just to name a few. The medium fatty tuna was the most delicious. While the overall taste of the toppings was average, the variety of toppings allowed for an enjoyable experience. The miso soup also contained a variety of fish and was delicious. The only improvement I could suggest is that the dish tended to cool down quickly. I have visited many seafood bowl restaurants in Tokyo, but this restaurant, along with Edofuji, offers one of the best cost performances.

This shop is run by a fresh fish store in Higashi Komagata. I used to eat here at least once a week over 15 years ago. I always ate the expensive items, so delicious was a given. Today, I came back after a long time and made a big mistake by ordering something more affordable. I regret not getting the Negitoro. I should have just ordered the regular seafood bowl. I also got a crab croquette to go, but there was hardly any crab in it. I used to work near Tsukiji and had sushi for lunch every day, but I think this shop is cheaper and tastier for rice bowl dishes. Even if you go alone, you can sit at a table for four and relax.
