    Brilliant video – thanks!! Being a foodie I watch your videos for places to eat here in Tokyo as I've realised we tend to share the same taste. We can safely say that I've become somewhat of a food stalker. I hope the offer of a free drink still stands, regardless I'm going there as soon as possible because scallops are my favourite seafood and I had no idea that there was an actual restaurant dedicated to only scallops – dream come true…

    I appreciate the restaurant fellow speaking in English. I'm not into seafood but it looked as if you two had a wonderful meal.

    What an amazing concept for a restaurant! I absolutely adore scallops…my favorite seafood! The owner really was gracious, knowledgeable and accomodating. The food looked gorgeous and delicious. Thank you for sharing Shinichi and Shanoshi! 😊❤

    Scallop- is the king of all shellfish.
    Lobster and Crab and Shrimp combined can’t carry Scallop’s jockstrap!
    Scallops, R U L E.

    Those gentlemen in the shop, I’m not sure if they are also the owners, but what terrific energy!
    You can immediately experience their authenticity by their smiles- they love their work/business.
    I LOVE & RESPECT micro businesses that are based on extreme outlier standards of excellence-
    Such as a scallop only (basically) theme.
    They are experts in the scallop.
    What a fantastic thing for them
    Since they want to share the Hokkaido scallop!
    By the way-
    I e been eating and LOVING the scallop since I can remember- and I’m old enough to remember songs coming out- from the 70’s
    And I can say this unequivocally-
    Regarding those sashimi scallops.. 🤩
    Those scallops—- are from a magic place!
    I’ve never seen scallops like those in this video.
    And that scallop roll…
    I think the Geneva Convention outlawed that roll – it could cause taste rebellions!
    We give much love and thanks to the scallops- and any living thing plant or animal- that give their life energy for us to use as sustenance – and not just enjoyment, but definitely the gift of pleasure some derive from the taste and smells and purity of beautiful things.
    🙇🙏🏻

    Their fishing pole seems a lot easier to use than the last place. Considering you only get two minutes, they probably tried to make it a bit easier so customers wouldn't feel ripped off if they couldn't catch anything.

    I wouldn't trust cooks in America to make raw scallops safe for consumption. Would have to pay a good penny for a chef to do it right, or go to a reputable Japanese restaurant.

    This place looks so AMAZING! I would love to try all the different scallops with the sake. I wish we had such a place where I live. I love how knowledgeable to owner is. This is some one who loves his craft.

    Wow! What a great restaurant with the best atmosphere . Raw scallops so jealous, as a seafood lover , they served you so many succulent dishes. I will definately go there on my visit to Japan. Thankyou TabiEats 😚👍

    I was so sad to hear that this place has closed 🙁 Was it because of Covid? Boo. I hope that they can eventually re-open. If they do, I'll be there! I would love to try all those scallops (and the chicken too) as well as the sake that Shinichi was able to drink (because I don't drink that much either).

    As someone who adores scallops, this restaurant looked AMAZING. Everything about it was awesome, and you guys really seemed to enjoy it. LOVED it!!!

    Just now I wanted to mark the restaurant in Google map so that next time I can visit there. But Google map said that their shop is permanently closed…. 🙁
