Kaiten Sushi Coming Soon

Boca Grove will soon be home to Jidai Kaiten Sushi. Unlike most Japanese restaurant names, this one actually means something.
Kaiten sushi refers to a restaurant layout where the sushi chef stands in the middle and the customers sit around the outside of a circle, rectangle or other shape. The chef places plates of sushi on a moving platform, circling around. It is sometimes called conveyor belt sushi. And this restaurant also uses that term:

It is a fun way to experience sushi. The plates are color coded to reflect the price. On the menu outside Jidai, it’s $2 for pink, $3 for red, $4 for blue and $5 for yellow.
We couldn’t get a great shot but we think the area on the left is a somewhat triangular shape for the kaiten sushi.

The menu also has a broad array of sushi as well as about 15 hot entrees, plus soup, salad and a kids menu.
No word on when they’ll open but it looks like they’ll be ready soon.
