牡蠣や粋 — Restaurant in Tokyo

We came early so our party of 4 were the only ones in the restaurant at the time so our experience was not due to them being busy.

Our waitress was not friendly and when we asked if we could have some more time to think and look at the menu just stood next to us waiting we were definitely rushed.

Eventually we just ordered the first item on the top of the menu because we were rushing (we also don't read Japanese so typically it requires some google translate).

They serve oysters from different parts of Japan. The giant size oyster is for display only. Oysters meat are around 3 inch to 5 inch big depends on the oyster type. This shop also won awards for...

This oyster restaurant is located at 千客萬來，which is a new local attractions in toyosu fish market. Tried two raw oyster sets, and it was really delicious! The oysters are freshly opened before they serve, so it may take some time to serve after you ordered. I especially like the non-rock oysters, which has stronger taste. They even got after-taste which was definitely a surprice to me. Price is not cheap though, but in terms of the taste and freshness I...
