A sushi bar is a restaurant that specializes in serving sushi, a traditional Japanese dish made with vinegared rice and various ingredients, including raw fish, vegetables, and seaweed. Customers can enjoy a variety of sushi types, such as nigiri, maki, and sashimi, often prepared right in front of them by skilled chefs. Many sushi bars offer a casual dining experience, where patrons can sit at a counter or table. Some establishments also provide a conveyor belt system, allowing diners to select dishes as they pass by. Sushi bars often emphasize fresh ingredients and artistic presentation.
