In this video we experience bullet train sushi in Tokyo, Japan for the first time. We had already tried conveyor belt sushi in Osaka, where we could grab plates of sushi as they travelled down, but this was our first time ordering exactly the sushi we wanted and having it fly out and stop right in front of us. It was really easy for us to order the sushi with the touch screen menus and aside from just nigiri, maki and sashimi they also had an extensive noodle and soup section which we really appreciated. The prices of everything was very reasonable and we found the quality for what we paid offered excellent value. All in all we tried the following:

1) Complimentary match green tea (self service)
2) Tuna and salmon nigiri rolls
3) Grilled salmon rolls
4) Salted sardine sushi
5) Shrimp sushi
6) Salmon nigiri with lots of mayo (not our favorite)
7) Udon soup
8) Miso soup
9) Salmon rolls with chopped chives and chili oil

There are quite a few bullet train sushi restaurants in Tokyo, but we went to "Uobei Shibuya Dogenzaka" (魚べい) which is located in Shibuya neighborhood of Tokyo, Japan:

🚄 Tokyo’s BULLET TRAIN SUSHI Experience! 🍣 Kaiten-zushi at Top Speed in Shibuya 🥢🍜 | Conveyor Belt Sushi + Udon! 🇯🇵

🎬 Introduction: What is Bullet Train Sushi?
Welcome to a whole new world of Japanese dining! In this video, we take you inside Uobei in Shibuya, Tokyo, where the traditional conveyor belt sushi (Kaiten-zushi - 回転寿司) concept gets a high-tech twist. Here, sushi is delivered at lightning speed via a "bullet train" right to your seat! With a digital ordering system, massive menu, and sushi flying out in seconds, this is the ultimate Japan food experience. Grab your chopsticks and join us on this sushi adventure!

👫 Special Guests & Setting
We’re joined by our friend Rob for this epic meal!

We arrive at Uobei, a famous bullet train sushi restaurant in Shibuya, Tokyo, totally soaked from the rain—but hungry and excited.

Each table has a digital touch-screen, photos for easy ordering, plus classic sushi bar extras: green tea powder, chopsticks, napkins, ginger, wasabi, and soy sauce bowls.

🍵 Getting Started: Green Tea & Ordering
Sam demonstrates the traditional way to prepare matcha green tea at your table—just add powder, pour hot water, stir, and sip!

We dive into the tablet menu, with plenty of sushi classics and creative options, perfect for tourists or locals.

🍣 Sushi On Demand: How Bullet Train Sushi Works
Order via the touchscreen and within seconds, sushi arrives—flying down the rails and stopping right in front of you!

First orders: Tuna and salmon, grilled salmon with crispy skin, all fresh and flavorful.

Sushi etiquette: Dip the fish (not the rice) in soy sauce. But we admit, sometimes it’s tricky!

🔥 Tasting Different Sushi & Sashimi
Rob’s selection: Salted sardine sushi, shrimp with spicy salsa & onions, salmon with mayo and onions.

Honest reviews:

Sardine: Super salty and juicy, unique and with a strong aftertaste.

Shrimp with spicy salsa: Sweet and spicy, loaded with onions, a real flavor bomb.

Salmon with mayo: Maybe a bit too much mayo—sometimes less is more!

So many options: Multiple salmon and shrimp varieties, plus endless combos for every taste.

🍜 More Than Sushi: Udon, Ramen, and Miso Soup
Discovery: Uobei isn’t just about sushi! There’s a menu section for ramen and udon.

Sam tries the Soft-Boiled Egg & Mentaiko Udon—a generous portion topped with tempura bits, a soft egg, chives, and mysterious orange paste (mentaiko, spicy cod roe).

Audrey opts for classic miso soup, always a comforting side.

🎰 Sushi Roulette: Will You Win?
Fun surprise: Order side dishes and play "Sushi Roulette" for a chance to win a prize. (Spoiler: Still waiting for a win! Does anyone ever win?!)

🔥 Final Sushi Rounds: Spicy Salmon, Stacks of Plates
Sam finishes with a final plate: Salmon topped with chives and spicy chili oil—perfect heat without the need for wasabi!

The aftermath: Stacks of colorful plates and bowls, the universal sign of a successful Japanese sushi meal.

🎉 First Impressions & Final Thoughts
The Bullet Train Sushi (Uobei) experience is fun, affordable, and ultra-efficient.

Massive variety: While there aren’t tons of sushi rolls, there’s a great selection of nigiri, sides, noodles, and soups.

Super popular with locals and tourists—expect a lively atmosphere!
