Chuo City, Tokyo, Japan｜Tsukijiya

Fresh and tasty sushi. Reasonable price. I see the nice old chef people talked about 😆 the sushi set is a good way to sample all the different sushi and helps you find which you like most.

I had a *really* good lunch here. If you're a visiting American/westerner - read on! Everywhere in Tsukiji tends to be busy as hell, at least the couple times I've been there. I stumbled upon Tsukiji-ya and there wasn't a long line or wait so I popped in. The #1 set course lunch is what I've included in pictures, and at present exchange rates (late '22, early '23) you're getting all of that for the equivalent of like $20 US. That's a killer deal *relative to what I'm used to paying in the US* and especially for the quality. If you're accustomed to getting nigiri in the US this will blow most places out of the water. If this existed in my neighborhood at home I'd give it 6 stars and be there every week. With that said it's hard to gauge what this should be relative to other places in Tsukiji. I think you'd have great food just about anywhere; it's not like Tsukiji-ya is *the* spot ya gotta check out. Relative to the other places around it might just be average. I can't put myself in the shoes of a local though, so for me as a visitor - I thought it was really good. I'd go back, but I'd also check out other places.

Fresh, tasty, and friendly. Great value
