A sushi bar where robots work is not well known in Japan. Slightly overpriced.

I am a sushi freak.
It’s been a while since I’ve recommended a sushi bar in Japan that I don’t recommend. If you are interested in this sushi bar, I advise you not to go there.

As to why I don’t recommend it. The price is too high for the price of the sushi, which is made by a robot, and the price of alcohol is unusually high. It does not mean that the sushi is bad. It is because the sushi is not real sushi but mechanical sushi for the price.

The name of the restaurant is “Sushi Katsumidori (寿司活美登利)“

They have stores in Tokyo and Tokyo suburbs plus Hawaii.

Dare I say it, the equipment is robotic, there are few waitstaff and serving robots wandering around, and the sushi also slides on rails.

The average price of beer in Japan is around ¥400, but this restaurant’s beer is ¥700. That’s too expensive!

To determine whether a machine or a person is making the sushi, look at the shape of the rice. If it is too square, it is an indication that it is made by a machine. Also, wasabi is usually added when the sushi is made by a person, but since it is made by a machine, it is added separately by the person himself. This is the system used in inexpensive conveyor-belt sushi restaurants, but if the price is higher and the sushi is made by a machine, I would recommend going to a different restaurant.

There are cheaper and better restaurants in Japan.
