I visited Mr. Usui's seat on the basement floor.This was my first visit, but Mr. Usui was very friendly and personable. Even though I was dining alone, I had a wonderful time. He goes to the market every morning and seems to work incredibly hard, often making three trips.Don’t underestimate the second-in-command; both the appetizers and the sushi were of high quality, with a strong sense of unity between the rice and the toppings.The bonito, perfectly grilled with a nice skin, and the rich and wonderful liver roll made with ankimo (monkfish liver) and narazuke (pickled vegetables) were particularly impressive.The sushi included sweet vinegar-marinated spring sea bream, tender squid, and thick sardines that had no fishy taste at all, which were all hits.The nakaochi (tuna scraps) sushi, topped with takuan (pickled daikon) and white onion that I added at the end, was a must-try and incredibly delicious.I noticed that sometimes drink orders didn’t go through, but that’s just part of the charm. Despite that, the warmth of the staff really stood out. I definitely want to visit again.【Appetizers】- Tender Octopus Stew - Fish Head - Simmered Abalone - Abalone Rice Porridge - Bonito - Liver Roll - White Sweet Sea Bream 【Sushi】- Flatfish - Striped Jack - Spring Sea Bream - Squid - Red Sea Bream - Sardine - Lean Tuna - Medium Fatty Tuna - Fatty Tuna - Young Horse Mackerel - Horse Shrimp - Red Sea Urchin - Egg - Ohagi (added)
