Best Sushi in Tokyo - Sushi Dai 寿司大

This shop is super highly recommend by many travel blog, magazine and TripAdvisor.
The shop start operation from 5am end close at 2pm ( if i'm never read wrongly on the shop information paste on it). But i need to highlight, you may be disappointed if you come late, as they may end the Q earlier, due to long waiting time or running out of ingredients.
To get there from Shinjuku, take the Toei Oedo line (E27) and drop off the subway at (E18) Tsukijishijo Station and exit at Gate A1. This is the nearest subway station to Tsukiji Market .
We reached at around 6am and the que is already quite long. Everyone patiently wait for their turn. For us, we que almost 5hr... yes you never  hear wrongly.
You may check out the following website for the location:

Finally our que is outside the shop. The reason why the que is so long is due to the seating capacity. If not wrong, the max capacity is 15pax.

Since we que so long, we had chosen the Omasake Set which cost ¥4000 to enjoy 10pc sushi selected by the sushi chef +1pc of your choice. While waiting for our sushi to be serve, the set include yummy miso soup and piping hot tamagoyaki. 
Fatty Tuna
Sea Bass
Snapper
Sea Urchin
Yellow Tail from Hokkaido
The Scallop inside look super big and yummy
Yellow Jack
Skura
Not sure what type of hand roll. But taste like Maguro

Sea Eel
Clam ( Shell Fish)
It still moving when the chef give a hit on it
That the lovely chef who is preparing my last piece selected by myself. I like to have scallop and he prepared if fresh from the whole shell.
Here what we had. Left side scallop and right side abalone chose by Alan. Yum yum. 
After we finish our yummy sushi, out of curious we went to check how is the Que. It get shorter because a sign had been put up. And it was just coming to 11.30am. See that is why I highlight get there early to avoid disappointment.
