This trendy kaitenzushi restaurant has a system in which you order using a touch panel and it's brought to you on the belt. It doesn't seem like kaitenzushi, but since you only get items that were ordered, it's all very fresh. Also, the touch panel comes in various languages, so it's easy to use even for people who don't know Japanese.

Business hours: 11AM - 11PM (last order 10:30 PM)

This kaitenzushi restaurant is popular because it's satisfying both in flavor and in price. No matter what you choose, it will definitely be delicious, but the 600 yen seafood bowl is a definite recommendation. Most of the plates are around 150 to 200 yen. The amount of rice is on the smaller side so you can enjoy the taste of the ingredients that much more.
