This popular conveyor belt sushi chain originated in Nemuro, the easternmost part of Hokkaido, and its JR Tower Stellar Place location is conveniently connected to JR Sapporo Station.

Known for its ultra-fresh seafood sourced from the fishing town of Nemuro, this sushi chain boasts an impressive variety of authentic sushi toppings. The combination of freshness, selection, and the value that comes with conveyor belt sushi makes it a favorite across all its locations. The JR Sapporo Station branch, in particular, draws large crowds due to its convenient access, with constant lines in front of the shop. On average, 30 groups are waiting, and during peak times, nearly 90 groups can be in line.

The restaurant prioritizes maintaining freshness above all, offering seasonal delicacies such as Tokishirazu salmon and surf clams in spring, saury and scallops in autumn, and cod milt in winter. The authentic flavors of their seasonal sushi make it a must-visit for sushi enthusiasts, and the wait is well worth it. Without relying on fusion or creative trends, the menu focuses on traditional, straightforward sushi that speaks for itself.

The interior of the restaurant features an open kitchen and is designed with a fishing town theme, inspired by the tools once used in actual fishing in Nemuro. Guests can watch the sushi being prepared in real time, a thoughtful touch that creates a welcoming atmosphere, fostering a sense of trust and enjoyment.

    Having conveyor belt sushi at Nemuro Hanamaru in Sapporo really left a deep impression on me! The restaurant had a lively atmosphere and a huge selection of sushi. The fresh Hokkaido seafood in particular tasted sweet and full of ocean flavor. Every piece looked so tempting that I couldn't stop ordering. I especially loved the thick slices of fish and how fresh they tasted. It was very different from the conveyor belt sushi I've had in Taiwan. I felt very satisfied to try this popular local sushi spot during my trip to Hokkaido, and it added an unforgettable food memory to my time in Sapporo!

    Hokkaido's hugely popular sushi restaurant, Nemuro Hanamaru, is now in Tokyo too!

    This time, I visited the branch in Tokyu Plaza Ginza. If you want to experience Japan's standing sushi culture, I highly recommend coming here. There's often a long line during meal times, so I specifically went in the afternoon and managed to avoid the crowds.

    Watching the chef place each piece of fresh sushi on a bamboo leaf really whets your appetite! The ingredients are fresh, and there are plenty of options. Just order whatever you like—almost everything is delicious, so you really can't go wrong. I also highly recommend their seafood miso soup. It's packed with umami, warms you up, and goes perfectly with the sushi〜
