Himi Kitokito Sushi (Toyama Station)

Himi Kitokito Sushi sits within Noren Yokocho, the izakaya-style alley section of Toyama Station's Kitokito Ichiba Toyamaruche food hall, and specializes in nigiri sourced through Himi fishing port, one of Toyama Bay's most productive landing points. The restaurant's identity is tied to Himi's seasonal catch calendar: Himi hotaru ika (firefly squid) nigiri appears in spring when the squid migrate into the bay in large numbers, shiroebi nigiri is available for most of the season as one of the bay's signature small shrimp, and Himi kan-buri (winter yellowtail) nigiri arrives in the colder months, when the fish's fat content peaks and it becomes one of the most prized cuts in the region. This seasonal rotation means the best single dish to order changes throughout the year, rewarding repeat visitors who track what's currently running. The dining room takes on the character of the surrounding Noren Yokocho alley — warm lighting, closely packed counters, and an izakaya-adjacent atmosphere that is livelier and more casual than a standalone sushi restaurant, well suited to a quick meal or a pre-train drink alongside the fish. There is no formal reservation system; seating is walk-in, and the location inside the station's food hall makes it an easy stop for travelers with luggage. Because it draws on the same Himi port supply chain used by more expensive standalone restaurants in Himi City itself, it offers a reasonably priced way to sample the bay's seasonal highlights without leaving Toyama Station.
