Katsushika City, Tokyo, Japan｜Sakae Sushi

Hands down the number one sushi place in downtown Tokyo. I have been here countless times for the food, the atmosphere and for the three sushi masters who are nothing but a joy to talk to. I have not had better sushi even in high-end restaurants. Absolutely love this place and I am forever grateful I stumbled onto this place!

The best standing sushi restaurant I've ever been. Fish is fresh and relatively bigger. Because of high popularity among sushi fans, you need to wait in line for half to nearly one hour on weekends in spite of the location in a suburb. I would suggest getting there by 11 am and wait for it to be opened. There isn't any signs written in English, so it would be better to find some basic kinds of sushi you want to order in advance. Basically, it costs 2,500 to 4,000 yen for one visit. (If you order a bottle of beer, it would cost a bit more)

Standing fresh sushi and local sushi shop. A must try for everyone!
