GAIENMAE: Isami Sushi... tiny friendly old skool sushi lunch near TESLA Aoyama Showroom!



This reads "Ei-Gyo-Chu" means they are open for business.

Sushi lunch sets start from 700yen for a small, 800yen Large, 1,000 yen EXTRA large and the super special for 1,200yen.

The inside was soooo Japanese and the sushi chef was on deck with his elderly wife.  I think the daughter greeted me and she was so incredibly courteous... asked if I could read the Japanese menu and when I went with the Large Lunch Set 800yen she asked if there was any type of sushi I disliked (shiny fish, clams, shrimp).  There is an L shaped counter with a few tatami room for groups.  

The space was so tiny I didn't want pull out my camera to snap away at the interior but its definitely worth a visit.  There was just something so comfy about the sushi here... won't blow you away but for 800yen with shrimp broth stew and a cup of green tea you can't go wrong. 


Don't forget to check out the sweet Tesla's at the Aoyama showroom.  There were two Tesla Model S's parked outside... very nice.
