Yoshoku Daikichi @ Asakusabashi Famous Store has been serving the local neighborhood's stomachs for over half a century, hidden underground. I visited for the first time in a while, aiming for the Iwanaka pork steak, also known as Ton teki. It was a very hot day, so staying hydrated was essential. Of course, I had to order the Aji fry with a Heartland beer. You can specify the number of pieces for the Aji fry, which is convenient. "Oh, I brought rice, but is that okay?" The landlady's friendly tone was comforting to this born-and-raised downtown resident. The sizzling meat on the iron plate looked delicious, but I always start with the Aji fry first; otherwise, I can't appreciate the flavors properly. Borrowing some lemon from the meat, I took a big bite. Ah, so good! They say that fried food is the flower of Western cuisine, and it's true. The aroma and taste were delightful. Finally, the Ton teki arrived, and the thick cut of meat was a delight. Cutting into it revealed a perfect pinkish hue, and the rich taste of the pork paired wonderfully with the soy-based sauce. The crispy seared surface enhanced the sweetness of the fatty part, intensifying the meat's deliciousness. It was so delicious! It's the subtle presence of such self-sufficient restaurants that makes Yabukibashi wonderful. I could also see younger staff in the kitchen, which was reassuring. I look forward to visiting again in the future!

Arrived 15 minutes before the Sunday opening. There were 5 or 6 customers ahead of me. I had decided on the pork loin steak from the reviews. The restaurant opened on time and I was seated at the counter. I also wanted to have a beer, so I was thinking about what to order as a side dish. When I saw fried horse mackerel on the menu, I decided to order it without hesitation. After a while, the fried horse mackerel was served. It was 680 yen. The fried horse mackerel was delicious, as expected since I've never had a bad one. And then, the pork loin steak. It was really delicious. However, it was tough and hard to cut even with a knife. But, well, it was tasty. Next time, I want to try the hamburger and crab cream croquette.

When I requested to eat delicious cream croquettes, I was taken to Youshoku Ooyoshi in Asakusabashi. We made a detour, so we had to wait for about 10 minutes to enter the restaurant as there were 2 groups waiting after 13:00 on Sunday. Both of us had done our homework, so we immediately ordered the signature dishes, Iwanaka Tonteki (200g of shoulder loin) and Crab Cream Croquette & Hamburger. Despite being a very popular restaurant with a full house, the staff were all very friendly and provided great service. The Iwanaka Tonteki (200g of shoulder loin) was a fantastic dish with a thick cut of meat, seasoned simply with lemon butter soy sauce, bringing out the full flavor of the meat. It was surprisingly tender, juicy, and packed with rich flavor. It was served on a bed of glazed carrots, Chinese cabbage, and potatoes, with plenty of vegetables. The glazed carrots were a nice touch, and the generous portion of the dish was impressive. The classic-style hamburger was perfectly seared on the outside, with a slightly pink center, and had a nostalgic sauce-based seasoning. The cream croquette made with king crab was a luxurious treat, with a wave of flavor hitting you with each bite! The beautiful orange cream had a rich crab texture, and the homemade tartar sauce with salted cucumber added a refreshing touch. We enjoyed mixing the butter sauce with shredded cabbage, making canapés with the croquette on top of the potatoes, and indulged in a delightful meal. The firm rice that soaked up the sauce was a perfect match for the meal. The piping hot miso soup was also delicious and comforting. It was a satisfying meal, thank you for the feast.

Just a short walk from Asakusabashi Station. I had heard that Asakusa is known for delicious Western cuisine, so I asked my colleague for a recommendation and decided to try this place. I tried the beef stew, which I had heard was excellent, and it did not disappoint. I also heard that the hamburger steak is delicious, so I look forward to trying that next time.

I went around 7 o'clock on a regular evening. It was almost full, but I was able to get in without waiting. I ordered the extra large pork cutlet and curry, and tried the pork cutlet curry. It was very delicious. There are many other menu options that all look delicious and reasonably priced, so I want to visit multiple times to try different dishes. I will definitely visit again soon.

I had drinks with the manufacturer and they recommended this restaurant in Asakusabashi. I made a reservation and the place was almost full by 6 pm. Do they serve sashimi here? They have a variety of dishes from Japanese to Western cuisine, and everything is delicious. Especially the tonkatsu and omurice are incredibly tasty. The tonkatsu is better than other tonkatsu places in the area. There's always a long line for lunch and you need a reservation for dinner, so I think it's definitely worth it. I'll make a reservation again. Thank you for the meal.

I dropped my wife off at work and on the way back, I stopped at a coin parking lot at 11:00. I wandered around Asakusabashi for 30 minutes and arrived at the restaurant at 11:30. There were already 5-6 people waiting in line! I ordered the Special Set (2 shrimp fry & hamburger) for ¥1,800, which is a lunchtime special menu. The menu was so extensive that it was hard to decide what to order!

I visited the restaurant on Sunday for lunch. I arrived around 11:40, even though they open at 11:30, it was almost full. Luckily, I was able to get a seat just in time and ordered the hamburger & king crab lunch. The king crab was full of the delicious flavor of crab, rich and creamy! It was satisfying with a good portion size. I would love to go back again!

I visited this restaurant twice and everything I ate was delicious both times! The interior was much larger than I expected, and even on weekdays, it was almost full and lively. Watching the kitchen from the counter seats was exciting and boosted my mood. The menu was so diverse that I had a hard time deciding what to order. The fried horse mackerel was incredibly delicious and fresh, and the shrimp fry exceeded my expectations. The non-fried Western dishes were also of high quality. The staff were friendly, the alcohol selection was decent, and overall, it was a great place for both a casual meal or a drinking party. I highly recommend going there - you won't be disappointed!

I visited around 1 pm on a holiday for lunch. There were 2 groups ahead of me, but the wait was about 15 minutes. The restaurant was packed! I had the lunch set with hamburger and crab cream croquette. The hamburger was juicy and full of meat juices. The crab cream croquette was amazing! It seems like they use snow crab. I would love to eat it again when I come back.

Asakusabashi's Western-style restaurant "Daikichi". A historic Western-style restaurant located underground. I had only been there for lunch, but when I went at night, it was still packed just like during the day! I didn't know there was a tatami room in the back! I had a mixed grill dish, and my friend had crab cream croquettes and shrimp fry. Consistently delicious. There were many people using it for banquets. #Daikichi #WesternstyleDaikichi #Mariepp

At the east exit of Asakusabashi Station, I passed by a row of doll shops and arrived at Yoshikichi, a Western-style restaurant (*^_^*). It was almost full with customers, but I managed to get a seat with a red checkered tablecloth. I ordered the old-fashioned jumbo menchi-katsu for 980 yen, and it arrived in about 6 minutes. The menchi-katsu was thick with sauce, served with shredded cabbage, macaroni salad, tomato, rice, and miso soup. When I cut into the menchi-katsu, the meat juices oozed out, it was amazing (๑´ڡ`๑). By the time I finished eating, there was already a line forming inside the restaurant. It's not polite to start a business meeting with some kind of catalog after eating at this place (｡ŏ﹏ŏ). The payment is cash only.

When sitting at the counter, you can hear the kitchen staff occasionally yelling because there seems to be a lack of communication between the kitchen and servers. Orders don't always come through accurately, which can be nerve-wracking. It would be nice if they introduced a convenient tool to improve this. The food was delicious, but personally, I found it a bit too salty overall, especially the miso soup. The crab cream croquette was priced at 1600 yen.

I visited the restaurant "Yoshikichi" with a rating of 3.49 on Tabelog. It is located in Asakusabashi, a bit of a walk from the station. The exterior is marked by a large yellow sign, and the interior on the basement floor is filled with a retro atmosphere. This longstanding Western-style restaurant has been in business since 1970, making it 53 years old. I tried the classic dishes, such as the Hamburg Steak and Crab Cream Croquette set, which includes Hamburg Steak (with demi-glace sauce), Crab Cream Croquette, cabbage, cucumber, tomato, and macaroni salad. The Hamburg Steak had a traditional flavor with a rich demi-glace sauce, while the Crab Cream Croquette made with snow crab was delicious. The finely shredded cabbage and other side dishes were also well-prepared. Overall, this restaurant offers a taste of the past with its classic menu, and I believe it truly deserves to be recognized as a top-quality establishment. It's a great place to dine at.

I had been wanting to visit this restaurant for a while, and finally had the chance to go during lunchtime. The sun was shining so brightly that I thought the rainy season might be over. I needed a meal to prevent heat exhaustion, so I ordered the Tonkatsu (pork cutlet) 200g set for 1400 yen from the lunchtime special menu. It was a bit salty, but it was fine since I was sweating a lot. The miso soup with tofu had just the right amount of miso flavor. The restaurant was filled with office workers coming and going, showing that it is a well-loved place. Thank you for the delicious meal. I will definitely come back again.

I've been craving gratin for about a week now, so I consulted with a colleague at work and he took me to this restaurant! I don't often go to Western-style restaurants, so from the moment we arrived at the restaurant, I felt like I was invited to a spacious home and my excitement went up ◜~◝⸝⸝ Yay! We arrived just before 8 o'clock, and it was so crowded - full of adults and middle-aged men chatting and having fun! We were guided to a private room in the back, and it felt like I had come back to my parents' house. I still live with my parents, but anyway. The long-awaited gratin - it was so creamy and delicious...! The shrimp in the gratin was also amazing! The taste of the white sauce varies depending on the restaurant, and here it was surprisingly light ☻ Also, I don't usually eat out much, but the crab cream croquette was rich and delicious! The salmon carpaccio was also very tasty, not fishy at all, and it was refreshing among all the fried foods! I want to eat it again! (It was so delicious that I forgot to take pictures ߹ㅁ߹) There were so many things I wanted to try...! Western-style restaurants are fun...♪ I plan to visit for lunch next time!

Asakusabashi's popular Western-style restaurant with long queues. Established in 1970. It is said that the author Shitaro Ishinomori also frequented the restaurant. Open on Sundays. Arrived at 11:15 for the 11:30 opening on the weekend. Was 7th in line with plenty of time for the first round. The restaurant was full at opening time with a line extending up the stairs. There are counter seats which make it easy for solo diners. During lunchtime, there is a limited menu. Wanted to have omurice instead of rice, but omurice is not served during lunch. If you want to try various dishes, visiting during dinner time seems like a good idea. - Old-fashioned hamburger and crab cream croquette (1600 yen) with rice and miso soup. A very reasonable set where you can try the restaurant's specialties at once. Most people order this or the special set with shrimp fry. The hamburger is voluminous and when you cut it open, you can see the juicy meat inside, which is both meaty and juicy. It has a fluffy and airy texture when you eat it, with a wonderful meaty flavor. You can tell that they use good quality meat. The crab cream croquette uses king crab, and you can enjoy the texture of the crab meat, not just the cream. The tartar sauce is also delicious. If I had to nitpick, I would say that the miso soup could be a bit tastier to match the delicious hamburger. The restaurant's current rating on Tabelog is 3.48, which is underrated. This restaurant should be listed in the Tabelog Top 100.

It had been quite a while since I walked across Asakusabashi, and I found this shop here. As expected of Asakusabashi, there are many hidden gems here. The shop is located underground, so you go down the stairs. The interior is quite spacious with red and white checkered tablecloths giving off a Western-style diner vibe. I ordered the Iwanaka Tonkatsu Shoulder Roast for 1400 yen and the Crab Cream Croquette & Hamburger for 1600 yen. Iwanaka is a brand of pork produced by Iwate Chuo Livestock Co., Ltd. The flavor of the shoulder roast was delicious. I had to wait quite a while for the Crab Cream Croquette. It took about 30 minutes to fry. The croquette was surprisingly large and packed with delicious filling. The hamburger had the dignified taste of a long-established Western-style diner. I ate until I was full, thank you for the meal. At the checkout counter, there was a photo of the legendary Stan Hansen, but it was not taken when he visited the shop, it was a photo of him eating a bento. I think his wife was Japanese. Just a side note.

Chu-Cha Char Siu! [Western Food Daikichi] - Char Siu Egg Established in 1970, this popular Western-style restaurant always has a line during lunchtime. They offer dishes like hamburger, omurice, and crab cream croquette, which are all favorites of the black cat. The atmosphere is always lively and exciting! On this day, the black cat finally tried the Char Siu Egg that has been on their mind. The char siu made from Iwanaka pork is tender and full of flavor. When mixed with the fried egg, the taste is even more delicious. It's a must-try for any food lover! Location: 1-30-5 Yanagibashi, Taito-ku, Tokyo. 3 minutes walk from Asakusabashi Station. Business Hours: 11:30-15:00/17:00-21:30 (until 20:30 on weekends)

Established in 1970, the long-established Western-style restaurant Asakusabashi is a place I used to visit regularly, but unfortunately, I never knew of its existence until now. With its large yellow sign, it was easy to find my way there without getting lost. Even though it was still before 5:30 pm on a Sunday, there were already customers waiting in line on the stairs, so I prepared myself for a 30-40 minute wait. However, a family in front of me was waiting for a table, so I was able to get a counter seat sooner than expected. The restaurant offers a variety of appealing Western dishes such as hamburg steak, minced cutlet, crab cream croquette, Neapolitan spaghetti, and shrimp gratin. After much deliberation, I decided to order the mixed fry and tonkatsu after seeing the dishes being served. The mixed fry included a large shrimp fry, crab cream croquette, and scallop fry, all of which were delicious. The tonkatsu was made with high-quality "Iwachu pork," which was tender and flavorful, especially when paired with the lemon butter sauce. I also ordered the crab pilaf, which was seasoned with paprika powder and butter, giving it a nostalgic flavor. Although I initially ordered the crab pilaf, I couldn't help but be tempted by the delicious-looking omurice served at another table. Unfortunately, I was unable to change my order to omurice as the crab pilaf was already being prepared. The use of high-quality ingredients and the quick service contribute to the popularity of this restaurant.
