You don't need a three-weeks-out omakase booking to eat brilliant Tokyo sushi. Tachigui (standing sushi) bars let you walk in, point, eat piece-by-piece, and leave in 25 minutes — for ¥70 to ¥880 a piece. Here's exactly how it works and the named, tourist-friendly spots near Shibuya, Shinjuku, and Tokyo Station.
