“This place sucks.”
First of all this place is in a basement and may be the dirtiest place I have seen so far in all of Japan. Upon walking in o was greeted with the heavy aroma of frying fish. My clothes still smell like it, I had to throw them out. Our waiter, or whatever his job was, Neil, greeted us by asking in a... turdlike tone if we had a reservation. We said yes, and I will regret saying that for the rest of my life. He dropped us off at a booth surrounded by dirty plexiglass and the table felt like it was covered in grease. He gave us one menu to share and a drink menu that looked like it been run through a dirty garbage can ten times. Then he disappeared. Didn’t ask us for drinks or anything. Finally I tracked him down and ask for drinks. He unhappily poured out 5 glasses of water and then disappeared again. Did he not want to ask us if we wanted other beverages? I guess not. We had to hunt him down again and he unhappily brought us beverages. My sense of dread was growing due to not only the smell but the sight of other tables processed food, plus the view into the kitchen where I could see an old “chef” delightfully throwing around slabs of nasty looking fish. So. They give you a fishing rod, which they hysterically charge you 100 yen to rent, and they direct you to these pools of questionable looking fish. You don’t fish - you literally just have to stab the poor things with a hook. After the glorious celebration of catching a carp or whatever they were telling us was edible, they then processed the food and dumped it off over time. It was disgusting. Plain and simple. Nothing like some fish caught out of a pond cut up and put on a plate that no one could palate, in fact my wife spit it out and my youngest as well. Both are very seasoned sushi eaters. Having not seen our friend Neil in some time I finally had enough and had my oldest son track him down for the ticket so we could escape this hellhole. After exiting the seventh layer of hell I vomited - and I hadn’t eaten a single thing. Stay away people.

“Place feels cruel”
Felt really weird from the moment we walked in. Place obviously smells fishy but there was something about it that didn’t sit right. My son was keen to catch his fish but didn’t enjoy it as they told him he couldn’t have bait and had to hook the fish anywhere on its body. Just hook onto their sides ...or their tail. It all felt so cruel and those poor fish were obviously miserable and were barely swimming. Food was very average. Chips were awful. Sushi was terrible. Service was ok but we couldn’t wait to leave. Would not recommend!

“AMAZING!”
Amazing experience. It can be a little nerve wracking at first, trying to fish in a restaurant full of people. The staff are amazing and make you feel completely comfortable. They answer any questions you have. There are about 8 different fish you can catch, each with varying price and various ways ...they can be cooked. The fish are separated into separate tanks so you’ll definitely catch what you’re wanting to eat. When you do catch it, the workers sing some sort of chant to celebrate! You get to take a picture too. We got a breaded sea beam and it was magnificent. We also ordered a bunch of sides, like rice, soup, fried octopus, crab croquettes, and it was all delicious. An amazing experience and the food to match!

“Fish&Eat restaurant”
Amazing experience. There are many tanks where you can fish from. The staff is very friendly and professional, they will help you out if you need a hand fishing. If you don’t feel like doing it, they also have a big menu so that you can try their food. After you fish they will ask you they way you w...ant your food to be cooked. They can do sushi but also steamed, for example. It’s a very good restaurant chain, we went to the one in Shibuya. I strongly advice this experience!

“Racist!”
Racist! Do NOT go there if you are not white without reservation. We went there with no reservation on 9/6/2023 at 7:15pm and they said they are full, but my instinct was telling me they were being racist. I got the confirmation when two white people walked in as I was about to leave, but I staye...d and stand behind them, hoping I was wrong. They asked the white couple if they had a reservation and they clearly replied with no with their head gesturing no. I was waiting for them to be turned away like we did, but guess what, they got seated. I asked and they lied and said they had a reservation knowing I heard the whole thing. Their response to be when I said they did not have a reservation was they only had one table, which did not make sense because we were there first. Never been treated this way before, especially not in Japan. Very disappointed and I happily will spend my money elsewhere that is not racist. I just wanted them to know we clearly knew we were turned away due to our race and not because the restaurant is full, which they were not because there were a lot of empty tables and the white couple that came after us got seated without a reservation.
