For sushi, I would seriously consider a few days Hokkaido trip to Sapporo and Otaru ( or Hakodate ). There are plenty of affordable HND - CTS flights and Hokkaido is very family friendly. Foodie tourism is popular and well catered for in Japan.

For tempura, how are Raku-Tei, Tenichi, and Hayashi?
And finally, Zagat's has rated Obana, and all unagi restaurant, as one of the best in Tokyo.
Thanks so much.
