Numazuko Kaisho — Restaurant in Tokyo

CASH ONLY! Did not come prepared so we went to Family Mart around the corner to access the ATM. It’s 1700yen for all you can eat sashimi but that’s basically what you’re eating. There is some simple curry but mostly it’s sashimi and there were about 8 different kinds that I really liked.

The cooked baby squid tentacles were actually really good. The marinated tuna was also good and tasted like poke. Then there’s the smashed fish paste that looks a little scary like raw pork but was surprisingly tasty. I used it to smear on top of some fish tempura. It’s a tiny restaurant and a little dingy but back home in California, we’d be looking at a few slices of sashimi for this $10 price tag and not an entire meal. Most everyone was eating a chirashi bowl with the sashimi.

I was a little worried I’d have an upset stomach eating that much fish since I don’t eat rice. I would’ve liked some salad to go with the sashimi. But I was fine, though I definitely didn’t want fish for the next 3 days!

Everyone was friendly, despite the language barrier. They’re very serious about the 45 minute limit and start the clock as soon as you’re checked in at your table. You can choose a longer time if you want or additional beverages and pay extra for all...

All-you-can-eat seafood, yes please! This place also has other menu items such as miso soup, fried fish and prawns as well as curry sauces. We opted for the all-you-can-eat and drink for 1875 yen per person for 45 minutes, adding 75 for every 5 minutes after. It's a good start if you're getting into eating seafood, as there were over 10+ items to choose, from baby squids, imitation crabs, to tuna and whitefish. I really liked the fried prawns, and tasting the baby squids was new to me. Sake there is plentiful, and the staff there were very helpful despite speaking limited English. The female staff guided us through the self-serve area, as well as how to pour the drinks and informed us of the extra 75 yen charge.

It's not a place for light eaters though, if you want to make the most of the all-you-can-eat price. Others have also commented that there's no more seafood by 12PM-1PM. We visited right when, it opened so there were still many food available. I suggest coming early. Hopefully you will enjoy the seafood here as...

Came here for the 45 minutes ayce seafood for 1400yen. There were people in line 20 minutes before the store opened, but there were a decent amount of seating once it's open. The selection of seafood here was great and included jellyfish, shirasu (whitebait), scallops, tuna, and fatty salmon. You can also get fried fish and meat, seafood curry, and miso soup. I really liked the garlic scallop and white bait, and the tuna looked very fresh and were diced in big fatty chunks. This is definitely a better deal than ordering a single kaisendon elsewhere, but unfortunately the Ayce will end near the end of February due to rising costs. I'm glad to have...
