How Conveyor Belt Sushi Works at UKIYO

Conveyor belt sushi, known in Japan as kaiten, sends plates past guests on a moving belt. At UKIYO, the belt is not a novelty. The entire restaurant is designed around it.

The custom conveyor forms the architectural spine of the dining room. It loops past counter seats and upholstered booths, so different groups share the same moving experience. The chefs work at its center, in full view.

Guests do not simply order and wait. The food, the service and the room keep unfolding around them. You can take a quick seat at the belt or settle in for a full evening of sushi, nigiri, raw bar, ramen, yakisoba and wagyu.

Full details on how plates and ordering work will be shared before we open.
