The new era of Nishikicho store, which is expected to be active in the future by partnering with large companies on solar panels, is a large store with tightly packed tables in a row, so the spacing between customers is close and it is noisy, making it difficult to hear conversations with friends. It is a good location near Kinshicho Station, but it is not a calm place to drink. The skewers are delicious with a crispy texture even for someone like me who is not a fan of chicken skin, and they are cheap with great cost performance.

I was curious about this restaurant, so I decided to visit it in Kinshicho this time. When I arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, it was overflowing with people, and luckily I was able to get inside quickly. I ordered a beer first and was surprised that both the drinks and food were so cheap. The quality of the food was surprisingly high for the price, and I was very satisfied! The staff members were all very attentive and efficient, even though the restaurant was full. When it came time to pay, I was shocked at how cheap it was for all the food we had eaten. I definitely want to visit this restaurant again next time. Thank you for the delicious meal!

This lively izakaya in Kinshicho is known for its amazing prices. They offer draft beer for only 190 yen, which is Sapporo beer. Their signature dish is the "Densuki" skewer for only 50 yen each. Densuki is chicken skin dipped in a sweet and savory sauce, then grilled to perfection. It's the perfect snack to go with beer. Sprinkle some Densuki spice on top for an extra kick. Other menu items are also quite good, like the "Doruyaki" charcoal-grilled chicken, which is delicious. A favorite among customers is the "Nori 10x Isohenge-age" for 350 yen, which is deep-fried seaweed with a strong umami flavor. Highly recommended for those who love to drink a lot.

I visited this restaurant for the first time in the new era, and I was hooked on the delicious taste of the skewers so much that I went back the next day. The fried rice, chicken gizzards, and other menu items are tasty and reasonably priced. The drinks seem a bit weak, but overall, it's a recommended place for good food and value. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because there is quite a long wait for the skewers to arrive after ordering.

The 6th stop on our Nihonbashi-Ningyocho bar crawl is a familiar spot that you've probably seen around a lot lately. Their crispy chicken skin skewers are a steal at just 50 yen each, perfect for snacking. The large tsukune meatballs go great with drinks too. This place even has terrace seating, making it perfect for enjoying outdoor drinks in this season. The atmosphere alone is worth a visit. And don't forget, Sapporo Black Label is just 190 yen here, a great deal!

A Showa retro-style budget izakaya chain that is expanding nationwide with Aichi Prefecture as its base. The interior of the restaurant is filled with young people talking loudly, creating a lively atmosphere reminiscent of the Showa era. When two people entered at 5:30, the restaurant felt about 60% full. The surprising thing about the menu is the low prices of drinks. Draft beer and highballs are in the 100 yen range, while sours start from the 200 yen range. To start, we ordered a "draft beer" (150 yen), a "highball" (190 yen), the signature dish "tsutsumi" (50 yen for 4 skewers), and "salted cabbage" (250 yen). The drinks arrived quickly, along with an appetizer that is served as a seating fee (300 yen per person). The drinks were decent. The appetizer was a simple chicken and cucumber salad with a normal taste. The tsutsumi skewers were crispy on the outside and had a good texture. At 50 yen per skewer, they were very cheap, but lacked a sense of specialness. The salted cabbage was too salty, making it difficult to eat. While enjoying the cheap highballs, we decided to try another dish. We ordered the "doru-yaki" (480 yen), which was labeled as the "No. 1 popular dish" on the menu. The doru-yaki arrived lukewarm and the chicken was tough and hard to chew. The portion was also small. The low prices of the drinks were appealing, but the quality of the dishes did not always match the prices, making some items feel overpriced. Disappointed by the popular No. 1 dish, we soon left the restaurant. The total bill was 2,222 yen.

Kinshicho Shintai Kinshicho Station South Exit, less than 5 minutes walk, only open for lunch on weekends. The interior of the restaurant is spacious, and the staff are energetic. The grilled chicken skin skewers and chicken liver sashimi are delicious, and there are plenty of other menu options, all reasonably priced. The total cost is very reasonable. The fried rice was also delicious. The restaurant can accommodate large groups, so it's a fun place to enjoy. The TV in the restaurant shows horse racing broadcasts. Kinshicho is a must-visit izakaya on weekends. The only downside is that the delivery of the skewers is slightly delayed, so it's best to order early.

Located just a 1-minute walk from Kinshicho Station South Exit, this restaurant has an excellent location. It is always crowded with many customers. Their specialty is skewers for only 50 yen each. To be honest, they are a bit sweet so one or two skewers is enough. Their potato salad is the type you mix yourself, which makes it fun to enjoy with friends. While it is primarily an izakaya, it is perfect for when you want to have a good time at a low cost.

On a holiday around 5 pm, I visited the restaurant and it was almost full. I thought there were plenty of seats available as there were over 100 seats and many other restaurants nearby, but making a reservation was the right choice. In the beginning, there were customers of various ages, but from the middle onwards, it was mostly people in their 20s, just like before the pandemic. The draft beer was only 209 yen (tax included), cheaper than soft drinks! The appetizer was delicious. The skewer pyramid (large) with 21 skewers was tasty and had a nice balance of flavors. The next dish, "doroyaki," was not enjoyable as it had a bitter charcoal taste, tough meat, and a strong flavor that made it hard to eat. I wouldn't order it again. The seaweed tempura was flavorful with a generous amount of seaweed. The edamame was served in a large portion, almost like an appetizer. The mountain of french fries couldn't beat McDonald's. The plum liquor was a bit lacking in quantity, but it was enhanced with grated radish. The black plum wine was served with plenty of ice and disappeared quickly. The honey ginger sour was refreshing with a strong ginger flavor, making it seem good for the body. The price for five drinks was incredibly cheap!

A skewer for only 50 yen?! It's so sweet and goes really well with beer!! The alcohol is also too cheap!! I only stayed for about 30 minutes waiting for my friend to join, but I was surprised by the low prices and deliciousness. The seats were cramped, but I like that izakaya atmosphere.

Delicious Denkushi in Aichi, I went to a restaurant in the same chain for the first time and fell in love with Denkushi. I searched for it in Chiba (Kanto region) but found out that Kinshicho was the closest. I was really satisfied. The fried food is crispy and the flavorful sauce of Denkushi spice enhances the taste. It's a must-have from now on. Cheers with beer for 190 yen is unbelievable. The lemon sour is also delicious.

In the midst of a slump in izakaya business, "Shinjidai" is rapidly increasing its number of new stores. Their dominant style of opening stores in prime locations near train stations is impressive. The interior of the store has movable tables for 2-4 people with round chairs, making it suitable for both small and large groups. The clientele is relatively young and the atmosphere is lively. Their specialty, the secret spice on the skewers, is addictive. Beer is priced at 190 yen, which is cheaper compared to other stores, and their dishes like fried chicken, potato salad, and deep-fried chikuwa are delicious. This momentum seems to be continuing. #Truly a new era!

I was planning to eat ramen at Shinjuku Taketora, then head home... but I felt like I didn't drink enough. Driven by the desire to drink rather than eat, I ended up going to Shinjidai, famous for its skewers! Not Ado! Here, you can drink draft beer for 190 yen, which is cheaper than convenience stores! It's a great place for the common people. So, I ordered a draft beer and my companion ordered a highball with umeshu and Brazilian sausage. Well, I wasn't that hungry, so I focused on drinking. The umeshu had grated radish to bulk it up and the sausage was very thinly sliced. All of that cost 350 yen... a bit expensive, maybe. So, more drinks! Another draft beer, and my belly turned into a beer barrel... haha. I started to worry about my belly getting a bit chubby. But that's just who I am. Oh, by the way, I went to an esthetic salon earlier that day and when I stepped on the body composition scale, the results were not good. I can't help it. I'm eating and drinking so much... But I'll start paying more attention from now on. Will I be able to restrain myself? Oh no, I can't! I'll keep drinking like crazy! Haha. Thank you, Shinjidai, for making me feel this way. It was a delicious meal!

Recently, I've been seeing this restaurant's sign in various places. After finishing a meeting, I decided to have a drink at lunch. It's located about a 2-minute walk from Kinshicho Station South Exit, in a place where a similar type of restaurant used to be before. They are operating in a space that seems like it was previously used by another restaurant. The signature dish "Denkushi" is fried chicken skin with a sweet and savory seasoning, crispy and delicious. The red Denkushi is not as spicy as it looks. Another popular dish, "Doruyaki," is like charcoal-grilled local chicken. It uses a firm part with a lot of elasticity. The tendon stew and the finishing black soy sauce ramen were not really to my taste. There are many affordable dishes, and the service is quick, so it's good for a quick drink.

I stopped by in between meeting times! I was able to sit at the counter and ordered a draft beer, which came with a complimentary appetizer. I love the quail marinated in soy sauce. I also tried the recommended chicken skin, which was amazingly delicious. I want to come back and enjoy a meal here at a more leisurely pace next time. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

I really crave Denshoku and just have to have it regularly. Anyone else feel the same way? I usually have about 3 skewers and a beer and I'm satisfied ❤️ Denshoku skewers are only 50 yen each and a draft beer is 190 yen. It's the perfect place to start the night out. Thank you for reading the reviews. I hope they inspire you to enjoy some delicious meals. Your likes and comments are greatly appreciated!

I met up with a friend in the vicinity of Kinshicho Station and decided to have a casual drink. It was Saturday evening at 5 o'clock. I noticed a sign that said 50 yen per skewer and next to it, another sign that said 190 yen for draft beer. Intrigued, we entered the establishment. The place was about 60% full, mainly with people in their 20s, but it didn't feel unwelcoming to older patrons. They didn't have tablets for ordering, which was a relief. We ordered a draft beer and 10 pieces of chicken skin skewers (known as the "Pyramid 10"). The beer arrived promptly and we made a toast. Soon after, the chicken skin skewers arrived. The sweet and savory sauce paired well with the beer. We ended up ordering another round of beer. Wanting some variety, we also ordered edamame and cabbage salad. The edamame was as expected, and the cabbage salad was a perfect match with the chicken skin skewers, leaving a refreshing taste in our mouths. After spending two hours there, we asked for the bill. We had consumed a total of six beers between the two of us, and the total came to 3487 yen including tax. The cost performance was quite good.

Old and young alike gather at this restaurant, sharing nostalgic stories and hopeful dreams for the future. The atmosphere is filled with a gentle breeze, and vibrant conversations between men and women. It feels like the end of summer in middle school, with the sound of cicadas in the air. Today, I saw my teacher, Momoyo, playfully spraying water from a hose in an empty pool. Her smile was so bright, it was like a major event for me. As I reminisced while eating a plate of skewers, I couldn't help but shed a tear. Momoyo will always be my eternal idol!

Next to the Gindako Highball stand near Kinshicho Station, where the popular izakaya "Beetle" used to be, there is now a flashy sign for a new era of casual izakaya chain called "New Era." I was always curious about their sign advertising beer for 190 yen and skewers for 50 yen, but it was always too crowded whenever I passed by at night, so I couldn't go in. However, this time, on my way to Kinshicho Station after drinking elsewhere, I saw that the counter was empty and decided to give it a try. I sat at the counter and ordered two draft beers and one highball since it was my second stop of the night. The highball was also only 150 yen. The appetizer cost 300 yen and was very small, but it had some kind of gatsu (guts?) underneath cucumbers, which wasn't bad as a snack. The jock size was normal, and the best part was the quick service. There were many staff members, making ordering easy, and they had four automatic servers and a dedicated staff member for making alcohol, which was very efficient and systematic. This was impressive. Since I had already been drinking elsewhere and didn't plan on eating much, I wanted to keep it around 1,000 yen, so I ordered two skewers and some quail eggs in soy sauce for 250 yen. The skewers were crispy chicken skin with a seasoning reminiscent of the famous "Yamachan" with pepper, sugar, and umami boost. It was a magical spice blend that went well with beer and highballs. The quail eggs were the classic "donguri" type. I used to eat them a lot at a cheap izakaya back in my student days, but now they are quite expensive. Getting 6 eggs for 250 yen was a good deal. In total, I had 2 beers, 1 highball, an appetizer, 2 skewers, and quail eggs for about 1,300 yen. With some control, you could have 3 drinks for just around 1,000 yen. It's a good place, but as DEN mentioned, the tax-inclusive pricing was so small you could barely see it. They should just display it clearly instead of trying to hide something. Also, some of the skewers other than the chicken skin were a bit pricey, but if you're drinking alone, it's still affordable and the lively atmosphere is great. They didn't accept QR payments, but I appreciated the clear itemized receipt. If the counter is empty next time, I might drop by again. This cheap beer chain near the south exit might just surpass Teketeke and Torimero.

My sister in Tokyo said she wanted to eat 100 skewers, but she ended up being satisfied with just one! It had been a year since we last met, so I was grateful that she came all the way to Kinshicho. The skewers at the Kinshicho branch were delicious, and they went well with beer. Thank you for reading the review. I hope it can inspire you to enjoy some delicious food.
