5 Delicious And Cheap Sushi Restaurants In Tokyo | Japan Food Guide

[@stvsueoka1]

In researching my Japan trip this summer, this channel has EASILY become the best and most applicable resource when it comes to Tokyo tourism for me. EVERY SINGLE VIDEO has something valuable to give and seems to hit the targets that many of the other jvloggers miss out on. Super thankful for Angela!

[@internationallyME]

Aw stop it, you're too kind! This comment deserves to be pinned to the top ;D

[@stvsueoka1]

hahha, AWESOME

[@JjamminBB33]

I feel the same way! My trip will be at the beginning of April and I've been using her videos to fill my itinerary. Thanks so much Angela!

[@stutam]

I read this late. But yeah, she also helped me during my trip to Tokyo a couple of months ago. :)

[@Sly55555]

Couldn't agree more. I have plans to go on a longer business trip with several stages in Japan next year, so this channel is a goldmine of useful info. Sub'ed immediately!

[@DatNguyen-gi8pi]

Thanks you

[@internationallyME]

Wasn't such a fan of raw fish until a few years ago, so if I like these shops I'm pretty sure you guys would too! .... I HOPE :P Btw, let me know your favourite sushi shops down below, so others can try it out too!! & me! :D

[@FlippyLe]

internationally ME, ありがとう Angela. I will definitely use your tips the next time I go to Tokyo. I also love your hidden spots video as I would prefer to stay away from the touristy areas.

[@foxmcfalco8757]

internationally ME i dont have a favorite sushi shop because I never even tried sushi before lol. But I think the 1st one and the Uobei was pretty cool.

[@chinaiscoming1017]

internationally ME Angela please make subtitle for you video,お願いします！

[@internationallyME]

付けます！！英語ばかりでごめんなさい＞＜

[@chinaiscoming1017]

There are countless sushi restaurants in Japan and thousands of them just in Tokyo alone, so it is hard to find the "best" one out there since they come in all kinds of styles from cheap conveyor belt sushi restaurants to standing sushi bars. In today's video, Angela want to shows us her Tokyo favorites that are delicious, fresh, unique and affordable, covering a range of different sushi places in this video, from fishing style, sit & order style, standing style, conveyor belt style and traditional style. 0:46 - Started with '''Zauo Fishing Restaurant''' where you can fish for your own sushi. First you get your free fishing rod and bait that cost 100 Yen. Then you choose the fish that you want in specific fish tanks and start fishing. Note: If you catch the wrong fish, you can't release it. Fishing for your own sushi will take some time but Angela finally got it, while the staff celebrated her catch to her mild embarrassment. Then, choose how you would like your fish cooked - sashimi style, as a sushi, grilled, boiled or fried as a tempura. Angela chose to have half of the red snapper as a sushi and half of it boiled. 3:26 - '''Midori Sushi'''. Angela's personal favourite. It's a crowd-favourite too so Angela recommends making your reservation online. Midori has an English menu, the quality and prices are reasonable, and the ingredient to rice ratio is generous. 4: 57 - '''Standing Sushi Bar'''. Standing while eating is a common way to eat in Japan. It's a no-frills, compact restaurant where you get to see your food made in front of you. 5:57 - '''Uobei Conveyor Belt Sushi''' (Genki sushi group). A fun 100-yen conveyor belt sushi place. Watch your sushi arrives to you on a high-tech conveyor belt system. You can see that it's a pretty popular place too. 7:07 - '''Sushi Daidoko-ya'''. This is an old-school conveyor belt sushi restaurant. Angela recommends the the affordable Koborezushi "Spilling Out Sushi" consisting of tuna, salmon, and tuna salad for 400-yen. All these sushi places have their specialties and uniqueness, you just have to find one that interests you and give it a try! 8: 21 - Angela comments about the awesome travel advice from her viewers.

[@ChrissyGutierrez]

@NADS IQ Doesn't the term sushi actually refer to the fermented / vinegared rice?! It has nothing to do with the actual fish.

[@marcusmcgowan844]

1:56 lol, I thought that guy was going to whack the fish on the head with that giant drum stick

[@Tamagotchi321]

lmao that would be terrifying xD

[@loongstorySHORTS]

Me too lmao

[@newstudent4835]

Marcus McGowan 1:52 "Haha yeah it's a bit lively, isn't it? Dont worry" *grabs stick*

[@rahman1314]

Oh my god the idea of catching fresh fish by yourself and then cook it is sooo good! My family is starting a restaurant, the idea is so fresh

[@sunnygu4629]

That NZ accent gives me such a homely feeling! Stumbled onto your channel by accident - but such good advice for my 3rd time to Japan next week! Thanks

[@internationallyME]

I feel happy too when I hear a Kiwi accent on KZbin - there's so few of us! Have fun in Japan :)

[@pommom-cm1ej]

Of all the Sushi 🍣 Shops presented I must say that the first one and the last one looked the neatest. The 1st one- catching the fish was really neat and the 2nd to last one with the sushi coming down the conveyor belt was making me laugh. Thats so funny! My best friend (Japanese) lives in Osaka and I hope to visit her next year. Your videos are so helpfully in learning the culture. Thank you and keep making more videos!

[@gy2ap378]

I'm Japanese, and agree what she says. I also recommend you MIDORI ZUSHI. Have a nice trip Tokyo!!

[@atrayuoldread6316]

Catch your fish sounds interesting. I don't eat fish, but I make my own vegetables rolls. The presentation is very pretty.

[@ph4028]

very creative how you broke out different types of restaurants instead of just reviewing one restaurant. good job. I liked the conveyor belt style.

[@internationallyME]

Thanks! Because there are so many awesome places, I couldn't just choose one O_o

[@briyawnuh]

Zauo is so fun. I went there back in 2015, and it still remains one of the highlights of my trip to Tokyo

[@alter3go411]

Going to Japan for the first time. The one where you get to catch your own fish Sems really fun and original to me.

[@m0395]

I visited Tokyo for the first time last year and I'm currently planning my second trip this summer. I'm absolutely in love with the city and it's culture. Your videos are giving me so much inspiration for my trip and confidence to do the things I missed out on last time! Watching them is making me so excited! Also, I've found it hard to come across advice or recommendations that aren't super popular so it's helpful that you include a wide range of things to do. So thank you and keep up the good work :)

[@andrewbirrell6909]

Zauo, I think is the best. The atmosphere looked relaxing and fun as well as catching the fish!

[@hyohee6096]

to answer your question i like the fishing style when the fish knew the catcher and eater name before being eaten ha ha . can see in the video you look really full of surprises that the event is coming. thanks so much really enjoy seeing it

[@CynthiaBeaumont]

This was so cool ! I love the conveyor belt ! We are getting a YO! conveyor belt Japanese restaurant In New York this month !! Hope I can afford to go. I love that you price it for us to understand.

[@internationallyME]

The USD pricing you mean? :) I have a lot of viewers from there so I thought it would help!

[@bmeier0689]

I just moved to Tokyo for school last month and I have been craving sushi, then all of a sudden your video pops up! Thank you so much for this quick and easy guide, definitely going to check some of them out this weekend! I'll be checking out your other videos too for sure! A great page for foreigners in Japan.

[@masarati7315]

I can't answer your question as what restaurant I like the best .... I have to taste it first. I liked your video. Gave you thumbs up!

[@alexanderwindh4830]

I enjoy the lack of narcissism in this video. Thumbs up

[@brielle8383]

All the sushi shops looked great, but the one that looked best to me was the Midori sushi. I will definitely put it on my list for when I come to Tokyo. You really do such an amazing job on these videos, I cant hardly wait until you have 100k subscribers.

[@internationallyME]

My personal favourite - midori! Thanks, will work hard for 100k!!!

[@yogakristian2460]

omagadd our litle angela is back! so cute as usual of course :) lopelopee

[@saragulyas3695]

My parents took me to eat sushi when I was about 6 and for the longest time, we would put a little wasabi and ginger on the sushi before we ate it lol. my mom taught me to eat it that way. when I found out the correct way to eat it, I told her and she said that she felt really dumb for eating it that way bc it really does make sense that it would clean your palate.

[@smokonlytree]

Your so pretty Angela! You have a great personality and seem like such a sweetheart. Love your videos, thank you for making them.

[@silvansardana1]

smokonlytree lol you are falling in love

[@internationallyME]

@smokonlytree That's very sweet of you to say. Btw, I like the username haha :P @PutraSilvan she might be a female, you never know ;)

[@4ener_]

Where can you get some dank in Japan Angela lol

[@richycline]

In the red light district of Shinjuku from the African guys. I didn't buy any because the penalties for having drugs in Japan are so steep. Also it was really expensive (like 40 a gram as I recall). I assume it's not very good either. You probably want to just avoid drugs while you're in Japan. The African guys are linked to organized crime and can get you into some bad situations.

[@dustintravis8791]

Can confirm, those guys definitely sell stuff. Didn't get in trouble, thankfully. Probably wouldn't do it again after reading the laws, something I should have done initially.

[@ShannonMorse]

Thank you for this video! When I went to Tokyo, I was overwhelmed with sushi choices. I will definitely be checking some of these out when I go back in the fall.

[@Animotion1000]

Just booked our flights from Ireland to Tokyo last night! I'm scouring your channel for all the places to see and to feast!

[@internationallyME]

Wow exciting! Hope you have a good time here!

[@lokofanat]

I like your videos, they are very informative! Hope to see Tokyo first time this september! Can’t wait for this meeting. Cheers from Moscow!

[@ddmmunday]

We love your videos and have learned a lot from them!! Flying out to Tokyo tomorrow with my girlfriend from Los Angeles !!

[@Wonderland_lotus]

I loved where you could fish for your food. I love raw fish and Japan and I hope to go some day or even live out there! I absolutely love your channel!!

[@andrewgamez7973]

Now I wish I had seen this last year or at least a week before I left for vietnam this year. I had overnight stays in Tokyo and a full day before my connecting flight was scheduled to depart so had time to explore. I did ushiku last year with a friend who lived there as a tour guide but this year and no one in shibuya so on my own. Found some nice places but should have watched this video lol. Going back in September with a friend whose never to japan before and I'll be there longer than previously. Thank you for this and being a good tour guide on food lol. Hopefully we bump into each other and have coffee or sit lunch together lol. Who knows world is small lol. Thanks for this it's a year old but still useful. Your awesome.

[@hectorguzman1172]

hi Im, from Guatemala and live in redondo beach CA , I DID LIKE all of them , 😊 but my favorite, is Midori😊❤️ thank you for your hard work, and effort to make me happy, , I love ❤️your videos😊

[@HigginsInJapan]

Growing up I hated fish. But now I pretty much have to have sushi on a weekly basis. I really want to check out that place where you catch your own fish. Great video as always!!

[@sthradhervernon7654]

I like the fishing one.So much more personal and rewarding.

[@perdomot]

Heading back to Japan next week and my fave place is the standing sushi chain. Really good quality and quantity for a low price.

[@richardhudson623]

I love your videos. I definitely want to visit Japan one day. MY favorite I would go to was the one where you catch your own fish fresh.

[@fabianasosa7283]

I m your fan from Brazil! All your vídeos are helping me to plan my Japan trip. Missing 20 days🤗🎉😊💝

[@Joisey11]

This video was informative. I'll be going with my family to Japan in August and we all love sushi, so I'm looking forward to using this info.

[@mariajoliveira]

I simply love all your videos. I hope one day I can go to Japan and try all those different sushi. Can you make more of this type of videos???

[@jakeshota3404]

Thanks for making a great video! I'm definitely going to share this with my friends so we can try out the ones we want while sticking to our budget. I liked the length of the video. It was a nice, short watch that got right to the point to explain a variety of sushi spots with mapped out locations, bold text info, and tips for ordering and reserving a spot. My favorite one was the fishing sushi.

[@misschoco29]

Can you make a video about what the Japanese wear for all four seasons? Love your channel! ;)

[@reikanoindex]

Personally I like the Zauo Fishing Restaurant, but I would skip the congrats part haha. Thumbs up for this video. Hope to see more of Japanese food videos coming~~

[@cinthiawaldo7690]

I found your channel while researching for my trip to Japan next month an I've been watching all your videos obsessively since then haha. I'll be traveling alone so I'm trying to find as many tips as I can. Thank you for making these videos, they're super helpful!

[@internationallyME]

Glad they are helping!! :D Are you coming for the cherry blossoms?? So many of my viewers are coming in April!!

[@cinthiawaldo7690]

I'm hoping I'll still be on time since I'm arriving mid-april, so I might have to go searching for them!

[@popoi47asca]

cant wait to visit zauo to try a super fresh sushi :) thanks also for the tip how probably dip sushi into soy sauce, I would just usually dump the whole thing in soy sauce hahahaha

[@daveofthedead9356]

Midori Sushi was the shop we went to last year while in Tokyo. It was on the 8th floor so while Google Maps told us we were there, we were on the bottom floor of the station and really confused! I'd love to go back to Japan, even Tokyo again, and do it all over. So great!

[@kumamaotoiu]

oh my gosh. Is this really like the 20th time I've delightfully clicked on this video in the past 3 months.? No regrets.

[@CurryandDumpling]

Everything looked so yummy!!! I wanna eat all of it! I can't wait to go to Japan in 2 weeks!!!

[@Simto]

Good videos, they're very informative and you don't have that typical "KZbin persona" thing going which other channels have. I'm going to Tokyo again for a month soon and I've gotten a lot of cool tips from your videos, thanks!

[@evertdebruijn8472]

Went today to shop #4 for a "little" bite. Ridiculous cheap and great sushi!

[@ledsith]

Great video ! I really enjoy sushi , and I cant think of a better way than to go the restaurants you previewed ! I look forward to visiting Japan someday .

[@cecilebousselat8192]

Those are really the most popular ones for youngsters because they're in Shibuya ! We often go to eat sushi before going out with my friends, if it''s not izakaya

[@forevermeoliv]

Hi Angela, Late comment but I just wanted to say your videos help a lot of people like me on their next trip to Tokyo, that sushi donut was amazing looking.

[@jif.6821]

WOW, EXCELLENT episode, one of my favorites (though all your vids are great Angela). When I come home to Tokyo after being away for so long I will know which sushi shops to visit. They all looked great but I think I liked the shop with the HUGE piece of kabayaki anago the best, what a deal for just $5.50! Angela you're my favorite KZbin channel right now, so educational and adorable at the same time. Thank you very much, keep up the great work!

[@user-tm4vn3xe3y]

Thank you!! Your videos are really helping me!! Also, you are very nice and full of life. It is trully enjoyable to see your videos.

[@skenichi6187]

I always see your channel. All of them are make me enjoy!! I've never been to some sushi restaurants in Tokyo, and I felt before sushi restaurant's atmosphere is luxury. I'll try that! And I wanna see more movie! Thanks.

[@gaborevanyics4434]

At first I was like, "nah that's not cheap", but then I was impressed. Good video!

[@TheLadyAzreal]

I just wanted to say, thank you so much! I'm planning a trip to Japan this summer with a friend, and with your videos, I've been able to convince my friend to go to Osaka and build a guide for Tokyo. You have my undying gratitude

[@internationallyME]

Glad to hear that! :D Enjoy your trip!

[@MultiTimelady]

I love the one that you catch the fish the most, but all look so good

[@MrFontB]

Answering your last question, the restaurant in which you fish your meal looks like fun (so there goes my vote)!! Funny when you caught the fish hehe hahahaha どもありがとうございました for posting this video ^.^ , I LOVE Sushi and I'll try to make sure to make it to one of these restaurants you recommend when I visit Tokyo! :D

[@GaryAa56]

Angela, I love to fish in the Summer here on Long Island N.Y. Fishing for you Sushi is such a cool idea! Another great video!

[@internationallyME]

Thanks Gary! Nice to hear from you :)

[@chocolatebars]

Please do a video on quality sushi places that are worth the money.. Especially for us viewers who want to experience really good sushi in Japan! Thank you :)

[@amberdey1763]

Love your presentation, keep them coming. The first one where you catch your own fish is brilliant!

[@VenansiusFortunatus]

daidokoya is my fav, especially in lunch time where they have a cheap sashimi rice set (chirashi). Also the usually have a whale meat (kujira) and horse meat (sakura niku).

[@MK-ko9lz]

Hi Angela, how I've missed your go to Japanese restaurants that are affordable and delicious like this video! Last time, when I travelled to Japan, we went to sushi daidokoya and did not forget to order the koborezushi, which was amazing! I still think about it today! Really, Thank you for sharing the places you love to eat at, it would be soo great if you share more of this kind of video, because it was definitely helpful and fun to watch when I miss Japan. But most of all, I hope you are healthy, safe and well!

[@zazzalo]

holy crap your channel grew like crazy! i love the food related videos so keep them coming :D

[@Rick-go2hx]

I really enjoy your videos!! I must of visited around 20 Sushi shops/restaurants when I was there last year for a couple weeks...all of them were top quality and not expensive! Hoping to go back in May for a few weeks! I love Japan!!

[@StrikeFreedom1920]

I have to say that your reaction to when they announced your name after you caught the fish was priceless lol Also sushi donut sounds awesome =)

[@internationallyME]

Hahahaha I didn't know I looked that awkward until I looked back at the footage.

[@StrikeFreedom1920]

internationally ME well I can't blame ya since I would have had a similar reaction lol But I did seem like a nice restaurant to visit 😀

[@tilldeathdowe]

That was an excellent video! Thank you very much! I was nervous about my upcoming trip to Japan, your videos help so much and give me the confidence to not worry!

[@roogee]

thank you for the video.I tend to randomly in Japan, but will definitley go to Midori! I've been to UOBEI, it is fun!

[@lowchristopher5226]

I like your accent and the way u present! Gambahteh! Keep it up!

[@rintaro73]

Last time in Japan we went Genki Sushi in Shibuya, also a conveyor belt type delivered orders...

[@qaisjassim3422]

This is a nice information for the person visit Japan for the first time...Thank you

[@bcrispchannel]

Excellent video and production quality! I really like your approach on sharing all things Japan. Sharing something as simple as five different ways to enjoy sushi on a budget is a great way to separate your efforts from the main stream productions. Well done! I look forward to trying all five styles when I finally travel to Japan.

[@cora1442]

I'm going to Japan next year and I have loved watching your videos, thank you!!

[@lisav9614]

Wahhhh :D I found some of these places when I am making my itinerary but that last restaurant I have not! I must add it to my Tokyo Itinerary. Thank you!!

[@ccanadian]

Great suggestions and I have saved this video for my trip! I will definitely try your favourite one but my budget will likely have me spend more time at the cheaper ones! ps...I had my finger on the pause button when he had that big stick in hand and the net with the fish in the other! I thought he was going to whack it! So glad he didn't. My luck would be I catch the wrong fish!

[@sheenal.7273]

Wow!! It's amazing to me how cheap, and what great quality the sushi is. I help manage a small sushi bar in SF and even our kappa Maki is $7! The Nigiris are around $7-12 / order. I'll be in Tokyo in April and can't wait to try all that wonderful and ridiculously cheap sushi. Thanks for this video!

[@dorothydevere]

i wish I knew your channel earlier, my trip would have been more fun (even though it was already too awesome I still can't get over it)

[@ejreob]

I really recommend Midori Sushi, both the shop in Shibuya as seen in this video and the honten in Umegaoka.

[@fidelchandra]

The fishing style looks like fun! I like that the most

[@TheADHDHomestead]

Your videos have been so helpful for me in planning my trip next month! Every video has something in it that I find useful and has really made it so much easier to plan! I want to explore less touristy spots and eat great food. Thank you so much for having such great content!

[@internationallyME]

Thank you for such a sweet and nice comment :) I'm glad you like the content - more to come!!

[@Yazeed_sal1]

7:04 the blond girl on the left is experiencing new flavors 😂😂

[@jravelog1193]

I just recently found out your channel and I'm subscribing! All your videos are so helpful for my coming trip in July, jotting down all the point of interest!! Hope to see more on the Hidden Spot series, and hopefully i'll get to meet you in Tokyo ;)

[@iyariximenauribe6797]

Angela's face when the guy was celebration her catch was PRICELESS hahahaha

[@anamartinezgarcia9331]

Hi! I went to Midori Sushi during my trip to Japan this summer and really liked it! So thanks for the recommendation!!

[@cs08avpl]

If only you had uploaded this video one month earlier, when I was still in Tokyo! Great recommendations (as always). Thanks, Angela!

[@internationallyME]

There is always a next time! :D Check them out!

[@M0ka3108]

just wanted to leave you a comment to say that your videos are really really great !!! so thanks for putting all this effort in making your vids. could you make a general video to teach us how to place an order at restaurants ?? thanks !!!

[@futurepixels]

I just had breakfast and this video made me hungry again 😂. Keen to check out Zauo! That looks so much fun!

[@internationallyME]

It is :) You should when you come to Japan! It's in a lot of locations as well!

[@dim0110]

when I come to Tokyo in june for my birthday I'm staying in shibuya so this is really helpful...much like all your videos :) it was actually your videos that helped me to decide to definitely come to Tokyo...so thank you very much

[@thisbettieluvsflower]

Just got back from Tokyo and all the YTers videos were so helpful. Thanks for taking some of the guesswork out of places. Did plenty of exploring too!!

[@thereisnoname8144]

Loved the video. My grandpa used to take me fishing. He knew alot about Japan. Unfortunately, he passed away a year ago.

[@internationallyME]

Sorry to hear about that :(

[@exepatrick]

Great informative video! Definitely going to visit these sushi places on my next Tokyo trip. Thank you very much for the fantastic suggestions! Looking forward to see some other interesting restaurants in Tokyo on your next episodes!

[@internationallyME]

Thanks for watching :D Yes! More coming up!!

[@kevinyong5093]

my mouth is watering. :0 thank you for the video. :) I heard tsukiji is closing. I used to buy some sushi there and head to the huge hamarikyu park to eat breakfast. such a good memory. :)

[@rolandoalfaro856]

As always, a very informative video Angela!! You make it easy for anyone going to visit!!!

[@americanmultigenic]

I am 62 years old. . .and I MUST get to Japan . . . and start eating this stuff. Meanwhile, in the US, grown adults are eating mac'n'cheese. . .and aren't even ashamed! :-)

[@taruchan1665]

I want to go to Uobei! But I think my favorite one would be..mm...I really like the second shop you went to because I do like fishing and making others do the cooking :)

[@mrmorton14]

Thank you for making this channel, I'm really excited for my 3 week trip to Japan at the end of this month now :)

[@BennyBNYC]

I think I would like to try Midori Sushi because it seems like the best combination of quality and value. Thanks for making this video!

[@Sprootland]

Hi Internationally Me! I am new to your channel, and I am from Toronto. I love watching your videos and I get inspired just by learning and watching your food travel shows. :)

[@internationallyME]

Welcome! Glad you are enjoying them :)

[@Sprootland]

Thank you. I have been to Japan 3 times, but never came across such delicious food like yours. I want to try it one day or probably this summer if i have a chance to come. :)

[@Clippurr]

Definitely the second one. Big pieces of fish for low price, and eel is my favorite fish.

[@carefree1905]

I am going to Japan in November and really want to experience Japan to the full! I have been worried about the cost of sushi because in the United Kingdom it is very expensive! This puts my mind at rest and I will certainly try out a few of these you have recommended. Arigato!
