I went without a reservation around 2 pm on Saturday. It was great that they allowed all-you-can-eat and drink even on the day of visit! (I added all-you-can-drink beer) I didn't have high expectations since it was all-you-can-eat, but it was surprisingly delicious! With this price and quality for all-you-can-eat and drink, I would definitely come back again. There are TVs, so the voices of old men talking about horse racing can be a bit distracting, but they are gone after 3 pm.

From a certain point, I stopped getting invited to drink with my senior colleagues from work. Apparently, there's a rumor going around that if you drink with me, you'll end up losing out on splitting the bill haha. I heard this through one of the junior members. On the second day of the new year, as I was about to leave after drinking alone, one of the juniors told me they found a cheap all-you-can-drink place. It turns out it's a place I've been to with other juniors before. When I drink with them, I always end up paying for everything, but it seems like they're considerate of me. 2,250 yen can easily be covered in just one hour, right? We were laughing about it. We're quite a group, huh. The junior who recently broke up with his partner seemed lonely but was smiling. The food is a bit pricey, but it's decent. The taste is just delicious. Plus, I've never seen it crowded, so I recommend it. The staff come around at least once every 5 minutes, pouring more drinks into our mega jugs. They serve a large portion of mapo tofu as a starter, which can be surprising at first. And at the end, with only 2 customers among 5 staff members, there's a sense of being out of place. But overall, it's a good experience! 😄

Visited on Friday at 7:30 PM. My junior colleague suggested going. It was 2 hours for 1,500 yen with all-you-can-drink. The appetizer was mapo tofu (lol), which I found amusing. It's a Chinese izakaya. The food was delicious. Prices for the food may be a bit high, but the drinks are a great deal with all-you-can-drink!

Located on the street behind Nishinippori Station known as Derby Street, this Chinese restaurant gives off a strong izakaya vibe from its name. I decided to try their lunch menu. The menu had poor color coordination making it hard to read, but I ordered the liver and leek stir-fry set meal. The dishes that were served were all quite large, from the rice bowl to the soup bowl, and even the liver pieces were big. The wood ear mushrooms in particular stood out with their large size. It was my first time trying wood ear mushrooms in their original large form, and the crunchy texture was quite enjoyable. The taste was decent as well, and with the free option for extra rice, it's definitely a great deal for young men.

I used this place for a casual drink in Kinshicho. It's located in a busy area, but there weren't many customers, probably because it was late. The name of the restaurant sounds like a chain, but apparently it's only in Kinshicho. When I ordered a draft beer, they served me mapo tofu. It was surprising because it was my first time at a Chinese izakaya. The gyoza I ordered later was also good for snacking, with a generous portion. I didn't try the ramen, but if you want to have drinks and food at a reasonable price, this place might be perfect. Thank you for the meal.

I had some free time after 3 PM, so I decided to have a late lunch. There weren't many options available, so I ended up going to a 24-hour restaurant called "Yotteba-san". I ordered my favorite ginger pork, and it was ready in about 15 minutes. The flavor was to my liking, but there was too much oil in the pork belly, so it felt like I was eating rice with oil rather than the flavor of the dish. I'm not sure if it was just that particular serving or not. The price was a bit high at 890 yen. Next time, I'll try a different menu item. Thank you for the meal.

After finishing work in the afternoon, I went out for drinks with my coworkers and decided to have a meal at this Chinese izakaya called Kameido Gyoza, located across from the strange ramen statue on Derby Street. They offer a 2-hour all-you-can-eat and drink option for 2980 yen, or a 2.5-hour option for 3480 yen, which is quite cheap. When I asked about the range of dishes included in the all-you-can-eat, they said it's pretty much everything on the menu. We ordered drinks first, followed by fried rice, gyoza, mousse, lettuce, stir-fried noodles, shrimp chili, shrimp mayo, chicken wings, and more. The staff were friendly and the dishes came out quickly. We also ordered dessert like ice cream and almond jelly before filling up our stomachs. My coworkers particularly enjoyed the fried rice. Being open 24 hours, this place is really convenient.

I passed by the front of the restaurant several times and was convinced it was a ramen shop, but when I actually went in, it turned out to be a Chinese restaurant. (So I didn't order ramen.) In my personal opinion, I think it would be better to make it clear from the outside that it is a Chinese restaurant. Some people might be disappointed if they came for ramen and it turned out to be something else. Also, it would be good to advertise that there is a spacious seating area and tatami rooms inside. The moving ramen bowl display outside the shop was very dirty and it killed my appetite. If it can't be kept clean, it's better not to have it. The overall atmosphere of the restaurant, including the customer seating and aisles, is a bit dirty, so it's a shame. I think it would be good to thoroughly clean everything once. The poster saying "We serve mapo tofu as a complimentary dish for customers who order alcohol" doesn't make sense. There is no mention of the complimentary dish charge, and shouldn't people just order mapo tofu if they want it? I thought it might be a specialty menu item, but I couldn't find it as a standalone dish on the menu. And it was strange that we didn't get the beer we ordered. Despite a few disappointments and mysteries, overall satisfied. I think the restaurant could become even better by focusing on clearly presenting itself as a Chinese restaurant and maintaining cleanliness.

I visited "Yotteba Daio Kinshicho Store" located within a 5-minute walk from JR Kinshicho Station with two friends for a morning drink. We arrived around 9:30. We were seated at a table near the entrance and ordered the all-you-can-eat and drink menu for 2980 yen + tax (2 hours). This all-you-can-eat menu includes everything on the menu, which feels very cost-effective. We ordered the following items: - Shrimp mayonnaise - Char siu and green onion salad - Spicy menma - Chinese cabbage kimchi - Wasabi-pickled clams - Legendary chicken wings - Shrimp and vegetable stir-fry - Garlic shrimp - Shrimp soba - And others. The value for money is really good. Thank you for the meal.

During my stay in Tokyo, I stopped by for breakfast. The place is located a little south of the south exit of Kinshicho Station, in a restaurant district. The restaurant has a traditional ramen shop atmosphere. I ordered the Daio Chahan (fried rice) and salted chicken wings. The chicken wings were juicy with a good amount of meat, and as someone from Nagoya, I found them delicious. The fried rice had a rich and slightly salty flavor, but was still tasty and fluffy. It's a convenient restaurant being close to the station and open 24 hours.

I went to the restaurant with a friend for lunch today. They had a TV, so we watched some horse racing while chatting and had a great time. The food was delicious too. I plan to visit again around noon. Thank you for the meal.

I was able to order individual dishes and enjoy a variety of food, which was great. However, despite the no smoking sign on the wall near the entrance, a previous customer was smoking. It seemed like either the customers had bad manners or the staff couldn't enforce the rules. It was a Friday night but there seemed to be a shortage of staff, resulting in slow service for drinks. Also, the time for the all-you-can-eat and all-you-can-drink deal was mistakenly cut short by 30 minutes. I noticed this later and reported it to the staff, who then gave us each another drink at the end. The food was delicious, but it's a shame about the service.

The complimentary dish is mapo tofu. The 24-hour service is convenient. You can easily go even when drunk.

We visited the restaurant on a Saturday afternoon with five people. The restaurant had a long layout, and we were seated in a sunken kotatsu-style seating area at the back. We were surprised by the complimentary mapo tofu, which was a bit spicy but went well with beer. We also shared dishes like dumplings, oil-drizzled chicken, and spring rolls, all of which had rich flavors and were delicious. The staff, including the friendly motherly figure, were attentive and made our dining experience enjoyable. Thank you for the delicious meal.

Mapo tofu set ===========

Mapo Tofu was delicious!

The complimentary mapo tofu was excellent, and all the Chinese dishes were to the liking of Japanese people!

Delicious food is the mapo tofu served as an appetizer. The oil is not tasty. It's over for a ramen shop if the oil is not good. I can't even bring myself to drink the soup of dishes like tantanmen because the oil is bad. The restaurant is dirty and the customer service is bad. The mapo tofu is delicious!

In September 2018, in Nishi-Kasai, Tokyo, I decided to have a meal at the ramen and sake bar called "Yotteba Daio" located diagonally behind Marui before heading home. I didn't realize that Yotteba is actually a chain restaurant. The interior of the restaurant is long and narrow, and I sat at a table for two. It's a bit tight for two people. I ordered the "Chicken Chili Stir-Fry" and the "Garlic Shrimp Stir-Fry" from the menu, which had a time service from 5-11 pm for ¥500 each (excluding tax). I also ordered a "Ulong Highball" for ¥420. The appetizer was mapo tofu for ¥300. Before serving, I was asked if I could handle spicy food, but it wasn't too spicy and made a good appetizer. The Ulong Highball was a bit weak. The dishes that arrived were unexpectedly shrimp chili and garlic shrimp. It seemed like a shrimp feast? However, I was told that's what I ordered, so I just went with it. The total bill was ¥1,703? When I checked the receipt, the Ulong Highball was not ¥420 but ¥277. I'm not sure why, but it might be a good place to drink cheaply.

After enjoying delicious horse sashimi at a horse sashimi izakaya in Kinshicho for the first drink, we visited this place for a quick drink for the second round. Located in the bustling area near the south exit, the place is a bit... but the cost performance is good! Basically, all the dishes are cheap. We ordered mapo tofu, chicken stir-fry, gyoza, two servings of shrimp chili, and two to four highballs, and the total came to 4,850 yen. If you want to drink casually and inexpensively, this place might be a good choice. Thank you for the meal.
