ION Orchard, already home to numerous Japanese eateries, has just gotten another with the opening of Gatten Sushi. Originating from Saitama, Japan, this sushi chain has over 270 locations across Japan, South Korea, China, and the US, with this new outlet marking its arrival on our shores.

Gatten Sushi operates with a conveyor belt, though you can expect to see the staff prepare sushi right in front of you—some patrons have even witnessed them slicing open a tuna with real flair! The chefs’ lively, outgoing energy has become part of the draw, with many reviewers singling it out.

The conveyor belt sushi here is priced from $2.50 to $9.80 a plate, so if you focus on options on the lower price point, you won’t have to break the bank. You’ll find classics such as Salmon Nigiri, Ika Nigiri, and various types of maki.

You can also order more premium options a la carte, including Super Fatty Bluefin Tuna ($9.80), Sea Urchin ($9.80), Steamed Snow Crab ($7.80) and more. If you’d like to skip the carbs, sashimi is also available here—get the 5-Piece Set ($17.40) to enjoy all the finest cuts of seafood in one plate.

Gatten Sushi replaced Itacho Sushi at ION Orchard’s Basement 3, which was previously a much-loved spot. But if the fanfare is anything to go by, Gatten Sushi looks promising for fans of Japanese cuisine.
