First, their custom orders come out on a train shaped cart to your seat. Awesome! The staff when we visited didn't speak English, but you don't really need it. The touch screen system has English. My friend that doesn't know Japanese went once before us and had no issue. My favorite thing was the d...eep fried octopus.

Two things caught my eye: a sign declaring in bright red letter '95 YEN', along with a line out the door. In my experience lines and discounts equal good things so I popped my name on the waiting list and stood smiling in eager anticipation. This bright sushi beacon did not disappoint. It's a high ...tech mecha of conveyer belt sushi. When you venture in take a seat, grab a cup, fill it with a small spoonful of matcha powder (you can't miss it, it's bright green) and fill your cup with hot water from the taps provided. Sip your tea whilst you make the decision whether to grab a sample from the sushi swirling around the tracks or chose your own. Don't be overwhelmed by the screen in front of you: it's a breeze to use and makes ordering pure bliss. Select the language control on the bottom left to change to English and browse through the many delicious options of offer. I recommend the broiled salmon, tuna and eel. If you're a novice don't be scared to tackle the unknown, you'll be surprised by how good some unusual dishes truly are (seriously, eel, try it). You can order four dishes at a time so go nuts. You're orders7 will arrive for you post haste on the back if the literal sushi train. Once you've finished your meal complete your order on the screen, call your waitress who'll add up your plates and pay. Seriously good sushi and, more importantly, remarkably accessible. It's not too pricey considering the quality. This is a great place for sushi fans and beginners to enjoy the amazingly varied and delicious cuisine.

We had planned to visit Uobei in Shibuya for their high-tech twist on kaiten-sushi, but they happened to close for construction during our time in Tokyo. Purely by chance, we stopped into this conveyor belt sushi shop while exploring Nakano Broadway and were delighted to discover they offered the sa...me thing! Although they have a traditional belt with various priced sushi dishes, you can order anything off the menu specially made via the touchscreen at your seat. Once the chefs have completed the order, the chute (decorated to look like a shinkansen bullet train) comes zipping right to your seat. We ordered a few pieces this way for the novelty, but it was hard to resist the selection passing by on the belt, so we more than ate our fill! Everything was delicious, and the price was reasonable. I would definitely go back if I was in the neighborhood! We did make it to Uobei in the end, and it was actually disappointing. It's cheaper and has three tracks instead of one (no conveyer belt), but the sushi, the atmosphere, and the overall experience were far better here!
