There were a lot of people waiting but it seemed to be moving fairly quickly. You can put your name down using a tablet and helpful robot dressed as a sushi chef, very cute! You can choose counter, table, or either. We waited around 15 minutes or so and got seated at a table. You can take items off the belt or order on the tablet at the table. When the item you ordered is coming around the belt, the tablet will alert you that your item has arrived. Very cool! I suggest ordering off the tablet rather than waiting for something you like to come on the belt. Perhaps people sitting closer to the start of the belt were taking everything, but the items that passed us by weren't as appetizing as the items you could order on the tablet. There was also a lot of repetition of items. If you want hot food I also highly recommend ordering from the tablet so it is made hot as the conveyor items tend to be cold. I had plenty of sushi (around 9 or 10 plates) and dessert for a very inexpensive bill total of 1400 yen.
