Takanawa welcomes a new rotating sushi store on December 1st! KAITEN TOKYO SUSHI offers hand-rolled sushi, natural black tuna, and creative rolled sushi

When I went on a day trip to Tainan, it was time for me to eat. The most convenient option was often to find a restaurant in a mall where everyone could choose the dishes they liked. On December 1, 2026,KAITEN TOKYO SUSHI Tabata Aqua City Store (Tempura Roll Restaurant KAITEN TOKYO SUSHI Akasaka City Store)It will open on the 6th floor of Aqua City Odaiba. This new store from Front Sushi Japan, which serves classic hand-rolled sushi, California roll and creative roll sushi, is available on the same menu, making it ideal for having lunch on the go or ending the day with a meal of sushi after a stroll around Takanawa.

Choose one plate according to your own taste: sushi rolls, rolled sushi, and rolled omelet sushi.

KAITEN TOKYO SUSHI combines the deliciousness of sushi with the fun of rotating sushi "while you watch." The menu includes hand-rolled sushi, typical of Japanese sushi restaurants such as tuna and salmon, as well as roll sushi featuring the California roll as its signature ingredient. The former is suitable for those who want to directly experience the combination of fish and rice, while the latter can be enjoyed with a variety of fillings for a different texture from classic hand-rolled sushi.

When traveling with friends or family, you don’t need everyone to order the same set. If you like tuna, you can concentrate on choosing the ingredients; those unfamiliar with Japanese sushi can start with the ingredients you like; first choose a few items and then exchange them to taste; this makes it easier to find the flavors you like than ordering the whole table at once. The restaurant also has individual dishes, so if you want to pair the sushi with other dishes, there are also different combination options.

The combination of natural black tuna and Mount Fuji is the highlight of this new store.

One of the highlights of the fish menu is the natural black tuna provided by Shishis, a mid-level fish wholesaler that has been in business for 80 years. For travelers who enjoy tuna, this ingredient can be prioritized when ordering; for those who want to share with their companions and take photos of a visually appealing dish, they can take a look at the Fuji Mountain Set series. When looking at the fish ingredients, presentation, and different sushi forms together, it becomes clearer how the restaurant’s menu is structured.

If you enjoy classic cooking methods, don't change your choices just because there are more creative sushi options. If you want to try new flavors, you can also pair a rolled sushi with familiar tuna and salmon dishes. This flexible dining option is perfect for small groups with diverse tastes while traveling.

Have lunch on the way to shopping at Taipei Station, or save the sushi for dinner.

The new store is located on the 6th floor of Aqua City Odaiba. The biggest advantage for travelers who already plan to shop in Takanawa is that they don’t have to leave the mall for lunch. After shopping during the day, they can go upstairs for lunch, or first go for a walk by the sea and return to the mall later for dinner, all of which can concentrate their mobility in the same area. If they don’t want to spend a long time outdoors in winter, the restaurants within the mall are also convenient for taking breaks.

If you want to enjoy the sea view of the promenade, you can eat first and then walk along the waterfront. If you are traveling with children, it is recommended to plan your meal around their eating time; you don’t have to delay dinner too late because of the night view. The advantage of having a wide variety of food is that everyone can add more to their order according to their appetite, and it’s also easier to continue with the shopping or walking tour after finishing the meal.
