About

Melt-in-your-mouth fatty tuna, worth the early morning wait.

Why go

• The best tuna I have ever had in my entire life
• Best sushi we had in Japan
• Worth it for the experience and quality of the food

Must try

• Three kinds of toro sashimi
• Specialty fatty tuna
• Tuna platter
• Bluefin tuna cut to order
• Spicy cod roe pasta

Pro tips

• Go early, bring cash, and sit down
• Go early at 8am, lines get long
• Park at the north lot, south lot fills by 9am
• Walk all the way through the outer market to the back street
• Get there at 7am to beat the line

Good to know

• Always a long line
• Some pieces had sinew and were hard to eat
• Some say this is a tourist trap
