This gem of a place is unfortunately far from being a secret. Thus the queue can be pretty long. However, the sushi coming on conveyor belts is so excellent, it is a popular place for tourists and locals alike. Grab a ticket, ask the staff to help you with the Japanese ticket machines, be prepared to wait about 45 mins and enjoy flavourful and fresh sushi.
Dining
Sapporo's proximity to the sea and its open plains provide the city with an abundance of fresh seafood, vegetables, and dairy products. The Susukino district, brimming over with restaurants, is alive with flavour. Here you will find fine examples of local delicacies, including ramen, sushi, crab, Uni (sea urchin), and Genghis Khan (lamb barbecue).
