Great sushi!! But with bad attitude..

Jul 2023 • family

We are so glad we got to visit on our last day of the trip but was left with a bad impression. We arrived around 5:30PM. There were about 20 or so people ahead of us but the queue moved quickly - approximately a 30 minute wait. My husband ordered a la carte and I ordered one of their sushi platter, my 9 year old daughter ordered white rice because she is extremely picky with her food. Wait time is a bit longer than we are used to for our food but it was amazing and at a fair price. After spending 10 days in Japan, it was definitely one of the better sushi meals that we had including - fresh sashimi, picture perfect sushi and hand rolls with generous servings. Then my daughter's white rice arrived - she only eats it with her prepackaged seaweed which she immediately took out. It was our fault, we are usually more discreet or ask if ok to eat the rice with the seaweed but the waitress immediately yelled NO! We were all taken back by the tone and my daughter immediately put her seaweed packet back into her bag. The waitress pulled out her phone to text no outside food or drinks and glared at her. My daughter was visibly shaken. We apologized but she repeatedly came back to the table not to serve us food but to glare at my daughter and see if she had taken out anything else. All other waitresses at the restaurant served our food and was very pleasant but after being so used to the amazing service in Japan, we were quite taken back. My daughter ended up not eating because she did not like their rice or soup. Don't get me wrong, it is definitely worth the visit and we will definitely return once we are back in Japan but will feed our daughter in advance and we hope we won't have to encounter that plump short haired waitress again.

Great place for sushi if you don’t mind queuing

Aug 2023 • couples

Sushi was awesome! But waiting time is too long for this. I dont like to queue. It is very popular among locals and tourists. Sushi and sashimi are of good quality and it’s very cheap. One slice of otoro (fatty tuna) is only $5! But at about 12pm, they stopped giving out queue number

longest sushi wait

Jan 2020 • none

food was great, however, we spent 2.5 hours on just dinner without dessert! it took almost an hour for one order of rolls to be delivered to our table. service was certainly not with a smile. our waitress was unhappy and not helpful. overall the food was very tasty, but the long wait times and poor service detracted from the experience

It's a completely different store from the old Midori.

Aug 2023 • solo

It used to be a good restaurant where couples, individuals, friends and families could casually enjoy themselves, but it's no longer the case. It has always been a popular restaurant where you needed a numbered ticket, but since reservations were made possible last year, the operations have become very poor as they have been letting in customers without reservations, and when many of the good staff were transferred in April of this year, the customer service, ordering method (tablets were introduced), and the quality of the original brand alcohol all got worse, so I was hoping for improvements, but I gave up. Now it's a restaurant that only thinks about making money by taking reservations for multiple people who will all order the same set menu, letting customers in, quickly letting them eat, and then charging the bill. I've been going there for many years, but I no longer feel like going.

Good!

Nov 2023 • family

Another place with a long line, they even have a line of benches for waiting people. Since we stayed near a subway station we just took a train there early, got a ticket and went back. Fortunately, we were with the first round of people in. My family says this was the best sushi they had in Japan this trip and they are more foodies than me. But the level of sushi I've had in Japan is mostly of such a high level I can't really tell, other than it's quite good and much better than the US. We order a variety of items, mostly nigiri with 1-2 rolls. The nigiri stand out in that the piece of fish is about twice the amount of rice. One thing that I associate with good sushi is that you don't notice the rice, you notice the fish first and foremost. Anyway, we made a small order to try, then ordered 4-5 more times as we determined which ones we liked and which we didn't. I ate so much sushi in Japan I don't remember which was which exactly but I think I liked the ultra fatty tuna best here. What I do remember was that the meal for 4 people was US$77, which was a bargain considering we ate as much as we wanted to. Before we left we wanted to come here one last time but everyone was fooded out and no one really wanted to wait in line again. My last meal in Japan was just Japanese sandwich and Hokkaido milk. The food in Japan overall was so good that even that sandwich was good. Yeah, this is definitely one of the sushi restaurants I'd go again.

Best value for otoro in town! Must queue for it!

Jun 2023 • family

My brother recommended me this place and he told me to come at 430pm to queue for dinner - and he was right. We came at 438pm and was given a ticket with 17 customers in front of us in the queue before it opens at 5pm. Crazy! Ordered the otoro set and it was fabulous- big, juicy and reasonably priced. Also had the imago which was again huge (see my wife’s hand), and additional otoro with inari (with yuzu). Service was very good and fast even tho they are packed, and price was very reasonable especially with the generous offerings. Highly recommend!

Good good!

Aug 2023 • business

Very good! You have to go early otherwise there is a kilometric queue, the place is simple and well organised. We ate at the counter, and took the fresh tuna route…excellent, large piece of fish and warm rice. I would have eaten tons of it 🤣 accompanying miso soup is an omelette in a cup with prawns.. excellent beer price around €45

Difficult to find but worth it!

Feb 2020 • friends

This was another restaurant that was recommended to us and it did not disappoint. There was a long wait but it was worth it. The food was delicious. The price however may not be feasible for those traveling on a budget. Our 2 person meal was about $60cdn. Nonetheless, would still recommend if you want to splurge on a good meal.

The customer service of the store staff is the worst.

Apr 2024 • couples

I came to Shibuya for the first time in a while and wanted to eat sushi, so I went to Midori Sushi in Seibu, but an elderly person who had entered the restaurant next to me was clearly having trouble ordering. The person next to me and I helped them out. The waiter looked at me from the side and pretended not to notice, the sushi was made carelessly, and when it came time to pay the bill, he put the bill for another person first even though they were waiting their turn, showing no respect for the customer. It's a shame as it's a restaurant I've been going to for a long time. I won't be going there again though.

I recommend the sets proposed by the menu

Jul 2024 • couples

This sushi restaurant was the most delicious I have tried in Japan. If you sit on the counter there is the possibility to order only by voice but the staff, very kind, facilitates the task. I highly recommend the suggested sets, perfect for tasting different qualities of fish. The service is impeccable. An experience to try.

Post pandemic disaster

Jul 2023 • family

I’ve visited this place many times and also posted a hack to reduce queue time. They now issue limited queue tickets at 10 am. Shockingly, there were already others dining before 12 am who were not on the queue. Apparently they started some online reservations. I can’t confirm but was very annoyed I made the earlier trip to get the queue tickets and the queue was honoured only half an hour later

High quality sushi

Sep 2023 • couples

You need to get a ticket to queue before entering and we were almost the last, so lucky! Never seen a quality to price ratio so high. Sea urchin sushi was great and the portion of fish over the rise is huge 🤤

I’ve heard great reviews for this restaurant that it has great quality sushi. I came in and the hostess told me to wait for a table. I would say about 10-15 min. As I was about to be sat, the man told me they were closed. It was 2pm and the restaurant is only closed from 3pm to 5pm and he sat a couple before and after are table of two. It was the second time he declined us, we tried coming in the night before, same issue. Starting to think he’s being racially biased. Just be wary western travelers.

We practically couldn't even get in, we asked if we could get in line or what we could do to get the booking number. The girl literally brushed us off in a rude way. Frankly, there are plenty of places to eat quality sushi in Tokyo and I will spend my money where at least I will be treated well!
