IKEBUKURO: Kura Sushi... Its always incredibly amazing! Kaiten sushi at its best just goooo !! (Sony RX100)

Kura Sushi has got the be the highest quality Kaiten Sushi (Sushi Go Round) budget franchise in Japan... Sushiro might be a very close competitor.  

NOTE! Even if you are a solo diner select multiple people at the terminal and you will be seated at a booth.  The staff doesn`t check as all the orders are automated.

Automated ticketing booth




How to properly remove Sushi thats rotating around.  As for Tablet orders they come directly to your table on a conveyer belt. 



Sooo yum!  Seasoned Maguro called Zukemaguro.

Spicy Korean style Chanja (Spicy Cod Innards) ... a little bit chewy but its cut into small bites and the semi sweet spicy flavor is addictive.

Yukke seasoned minced maguro with egg. 


This was a first... Maguro karaage.  A bit on the dry side but quite the volume!

One of goto items.. Ika Tempura! Look at that size



Remember when applying shoyu just squeeze a few drops directly on the sushi.    You can see I put a little bit of Wasabi on top of the maguro. 


Seasonings and Wasabi are on the conveyer belt


There are always rotating specials. 

Opt in for the Gatcha game! Every 5 plates gets you a try. 




Self Check Out.

Located steps from Ikebukuro station.


I went back a few days later... never disappoints! 

If you had to just choose 1 wallet friendly sushi spot in Japan I highly suggest Kura Sushi.  Staff is always courteous, booths clean, food so fresh and you can pretty much chill here for as long as you want.  No pressure to order more than a few plates.  Just go go!
