Ushiku, Ibaraki, Japan｜金太楼鮨 牛久店

A great lunch for 1250 yen, consisting of soup (with shrimp head!), excellent seafood salad, chawamushi (steamed tofu with seafood), 8 pieces of fresh fish, and a little scoop of green tea ice cream is available. The service is wonderful and they will hold the wasabi if you ask them to. They do NOT take credit cards for lunch (cash only) but the food is good and the location is conveniently close to the main train station. Highly recommended for lunch. I have not eaten dinner here before so I can't rate that.

A while ago, I made a reservation and visited in the evening. When I made the reservation, I didn't have a very good impression of the customer service over the phone, but when I asked, that wasn't the case, and I thought it might just be the tone of the craftsman. The omakase nigiri was delicious, as was the seafood salad and sashimi, but above all, the conger eel was fluffy and really delicious.

I went on a weekday and was guided to a long counter seat. Check the lunch menu in front of the shop and order 1.5 servings (1080 yen including tax). The material and shari are large, soft and delicious! The sweet shrimp miso soup is also delicious with the soup stock! The matcha ice cream was also good to cleanse the palate. Mr. Itamae was also a little tough, but I had a good time with a smile and a lot of stories. Beautiful shop, reasonable price, tax included display was also good. Next time I will go to eat chirashi sushi.
