An Edomae sushi institution behind Nihombashi Takashimaya, with more than 140 years of history since it began as a street stall. Techniques such as vinegar-curing and simmering have been handed down as ways of bringing out the best in each ingredient, and the sushi rice is seasoned with red vinegar and salt alone. Nigiri sushi is ¥3,300, and at the counter you can watch the chefs at work. The shop closes as soon as the fish runs out.
Opened in 2024, a stand-and-eat Edomae sushi bar where the chef shapes each piece right in front of you. The signature is the ¥1,000 "Pinkoro" light-drinking set of three pieces of nigiri, a roll, a small side dish and one alcoholic drink, with the gari (pickled ginger) sour as the top pick. There are seats too, but standing is the better value.
Open for about half a century, this is a rare freestanding, back-alley neighborhood sushi shop in Yaesu.

Besides the counter there are table seats and a raised tatami area. Lunch service ends once the day's supply sells out.
