      Sushi sanmai is a chain with most branches open 24hrs. Fish quality wise It's the best bang for your bucks. Over all quality is in between kaiten sushi(conveyer belt) and high end places. I'd say it's leaning towards the high end.
      All things aside, when you have a sushi craving at 3:30am, you look no further than sushi sanmai.

    That reminds me so much of the first sushi restaurant I went to in Tokyo with my Dad when we went to Japan in 2001. The prices were not very different back then, I remember Tako was 180 yen a piece, and it turned out to be my favorite. I went back for lunch twice and just got several pieces of Tako, and they served some very good japanese beer in a huge clear mug... man I loved that place

You could also have taken shots of each piece before you started eating them so that when you did pick it up to eat you wouldn't lose your grip cause you held on the piece so long like 50% of the time. Looks delicious, and the price didn't seem too bad for what you got!

    Was there a problem with the compaction of the rice? I didn't expect for it to be falling apart as often as it did. I think I would have switched to dipping the rice gringo style instead of inverting it to dip the fish.
    Also, when the guy caught the fish and went to filet it, was that a massive splatter of blood on the plexi-glass? Lol.
