I’m sure there are literally thousands of sushi places in the city, but looking for a place above the typical kaitenzushi chains, but of course below the wallet-burning levels of a high-end omakase type spot. Anyone have any personal favorites or recommendations, preferably in a neighborhood where there’s something to do after?

I recommend Sushi Katsu near the Hanzomon Station.

If you are on the east side
築地玉寿司 錦糸町テルミナ店

Nemuro Hanamaru is my favorite
美登利寿司 (Midori Sushi) in Kichijoji is apparently really good
[Sushi Dan](https://goo.gl/maps/8756qVYGt3v2RvvRA) (whenever they reopen) in Hiroo is truly criminally underpriced for what you get. High-end, not wallet-burning.
This place is amazing, it’s in the Okura hotel near Kamiyacho (near roppongish)
I’ve been here many times, it’s amazing
It’s a bit pricey though

The standing place down from Akihabara is my recommendation. There’s also another great standing one at a station possibly with “ushi” in the name. Sorry for the cryptic explanations, it has been a while since I was in Tokyo. Hopefully, someone here will have an idea of what I’m talking about.
Edits: looks like the one Akiba is not there anymore.
Edit edit: the other one is in Tateishi and it is called Sakae. It’s a standing sushi place right near exit 2.

I’ve always been a fan of MaguroBito. It’s a higher end kaiten place. Quite a few locations.
