Last night's dinner was at Kyutaka in Roppongi! It was a company gathering after a training session right in front of TV Asahi (I couldn't find the name of the restaurant on Instagram, so I'm using TV Asahi, but it's actually on the 1st floor of the building across the street). It's a Japanese sake bar or a stylish izakaya, facing the street with large windows and lattice work, creating an open yet cozy atmosphere without worrying about outside views. The lucky charm sake barrel from Urun (Shizuoka sake) in front of the shop is a landmark. Dining establishments around Roppongi are often filled with a sense of luxury, with trendy or moody lighting, but this place has a nice and comfortable vibe. We had the chef's special course, including lotus root kinpira, bell pepper namul, bitter melon in black vinegar, sesame seasoned purple yam, hijiki seaweed, assorted simmered vegetables, stir-fried squid and vegetables, chilled tofu with homemade sesame sauce, fried mackerel, tsukune (chicken meatballs), tomato and okra kimchi, fried rice, miso soup, and a variety of sakes. Each dish was carefully prepared, giving off a homely feeling but also refined in taste. We enjoyed plenty of delicious vegetables and a variety of sakes, from refreshing to rich, sweet to savory. It was a fun drinking party. It was delicious!

This is a shop with a wide selection of Japanese sake. When you look at the menu, you might be surprised that there are not many options for drinks and food, but there are actually many types of sake not listed on the menu. If you ask for a small glass of beer, they will bring it to you. The food menu is limited, with some options written on a blackboard. The food takes a bit of time to arrive, and there is nothing particularly noteworthy about the taste. This place is more suitable for casual drinking and snacking rather than a full meal. We had 4 glasses of sake, 4 highballs, 1 beer, asparagus and seaweed stir-fry, squid and cabbage stir-fry, assorted sashimi, pickles, meat and potato croquettes, and fried rice, all for a total of around 12,000 yen for two people.

When I go to Tokyo, I always make sure to visit this restaurant! On this day, I had sushi beforehand so I kept the dishes light and just drank to my heart's content. They suggest unique types of sake that you don't often see elsewhere, so every visit brings a new joy. I'll definitely go back. The pricing at this location is also a pleasant surprise.

A Japanese restaurant located near Roppongi Hills! Ever since I discovered this place, I make sure to visit whenever I have errands in the city. I leave it up to the staff to choose the sake and enjoy the daily dishes. On this day, the fried mackerel was excellent. Also, the crispy lotus root that appears in winter is delicious. Of course, we finished off with the fried rice and udon made by the owner's mother! This restaurant has been featured multiple times on popular voice actress Ai Kayano's YouTube show. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

I drank a lot!! Whenever I have a business trip to Tokyo, I always make sure to visit this restaurant✨ On this day, I ordered gyoza and karaage for the first time in a while. Oh, it was delicious! And of course, we finished with the fried rice udon made by the mother. I can't believe I won't be able to eat this udon anymore (T . T) Thank you for the meal!

When you go to Tokyo, be sure to visit Kyutaka-san! When you go to this restaurant, let them know in advance how many cups of sake you want to drink, and then order from the daily side dishes, regular menu, and one dish. As always, delicious! Especially the hash potatoes with plenty of simmered pork and the fried rice with udon are irresistible. And on this day, the new potato kinpira was exceptionally excellent. I will definitely go there a few more times this year when I go to Tokyo. Thank you for the delicious meal!

One of the must-visit places in Tokyo! Located in Roppongi, this restaurant offers delicious food at a great value. The seasonal vegetable dishes are especially tasty. The regular menu is also delicious. The sake pairs well with the food. The staff creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere. If you have the chance to visit Tokyo, don't hesitate to check it out. When will I go to Tokyo next? Thank you for the wonderful meal.

Located right next to Roppongi Hills, this restaurant offers Japanese sake and home-cooked meals. During the state of emergency, they were closed for a year, but now they are back! I always make sure to visit when I have business in Tokyo. Leave the sake recommendations to the owner, who will keep suggesting great options. For food, I usually ask for recommendations and order from the regular menu. I like to finish with their amazing whole wheat udon and fried rice. Despite its prime location next to Roppongi Hills, the bill for drinking and eating here is quite reasonable, around 5,000 to 6,000 yen per person. On this particular day, I had lotus root mochi, stir-fried squid and vegetables, pickled mackerel, meat and potato croquettes, teriyaki meatballs, delicious broccoli, special fried rice from the owner's mother, and udon. And of course, quite a bit of sake! It's always a cozy and enjoyable experience here. I'll definitely be back. Thank you for the meal!

After half a year, I finally got to visit "Roppongi Kyutaka"! I'm super excited to be able to go there again! I always leave it up to the owner to choose the sake for me to drink, so it's always a blast (laughs). As usual, I let them know right away that I'll be having 4 glasses of sake. Every time, I enjoy drinking and eating while learning interesting facts about sake and food! The 4-year-old Mie no Kin sake really hit the spot! The dishes we had included miso eggplant, pork belly daikon, salmon miso butter, lotus root mochi-yaki, homemade gyoza, Oyama chicken thigh salt-grilled, meat and potato croquette, mom's fried rice, and Kyutaka's udon to finish off! The food was absolutely delicious as always. Especially the salmon miso butter was amazing! And the gyoza, which I had the first time I went to Kyutaka, was just as delicious as I remembered! Finally, the whole wheat udon with mom's fried rice and warm soup made with Oyama chicken was the perfect way to end the meal. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

A Japanese sake and traditional Japanese cuisine restaurant! Located in Roppongi, you can enjoy delicious dishes and sake at a reasonable price! The dishes prepared by the owner's mother are all perfect with sake, so be sure to try the hiyayakko (chilled tofu) and the daily recommended dish of the day here. If you tell them how many glasses of sake you plan to drink, they will pair it perfectly from start to finish! They also have options other than sake, so it's a great place to enjoy seasonal vegetables and fish based on your mood for the day.

Located just behind Roppongi Hills, this is a cozy Japanese sake and cuisine restaurant! The owner, affectionately known as "Aniki," and his mother run the restaurant together, creating a friendly atmosphere. They serve dishes made with seasonal vegetables, fresh sashimi, and other items that pair perfectly with Japanese sake. Even if you're not a fan of sake, just let Aniki know and he will find something you'll enjoy! I personally discovered the deliciousness of sake by being a bit picky here. On this visit, I tried a variety of sake I had never seen before. Despite it being about a year and a half since my last visit, they remembered me and I enjoyed the same warmth and deliciousness as before.

There is a shop in Roppongi that I really like, so I was taken there on a Saturday at 5:30 PM. The shop focuses on morning-picked vegetables, so we started with four small dishes (like appetizers). The cooking is done by the mother and the son takes care of the service. The dishes were like home-cooked meals but with a delicious touch that you wouldn't normally get at home. The vegetables were fresh and tasty, especially the string beans recommended that day. We had a variety of sake, and the sashimi platter was excellent. The dishes like simmered new onions, clams and daikon stir-fry, and grilled yellowtail were all delicious. We also tried unique flavored sake with jasmine, hibiscus, and rose scents. The fried chicken, asparagus stir-fry, homemade dumplings, and udon noodles were all top-notch. The shop is hidden in Roppongi but definitely worth a visit for its homely and delicious dishes. I would love to go back again.

While enjoying delicious snacks and drinks, the worry about calories creeps in. But fear not, there is a place in Roppongi that fulfills your wish for healthy snacks and a wide selection of sake. The restaurant is called "Kyutaka," offering fresh vegetables and a variety of Japanese sake. The dishes include crunchy udo kinpira, flavorful nanohana sesame salad, refreshing greens in broth, savory asparagus stir-fry, daikon chicken stew, and tofu croquettes. These guilt-free vegetable-based dishes are a delight. Of course, there are also non-vegetable dishes like pounded sardines, sea bream sashimi, and curry-flavored meatloaf. You can choose from set courses or a la carte, and the friendly staff can recommend the perfect sake to pair with your meal. The selection includes unique sakes like "Houken" from Hiroshima and "Joujin Kyuhei's nama usunigori." It's a joy to discover new flavors with each visit. Delicious vegetables, delicious sake - this place is a gem.

I went for dinner. I was comforted by the homely and soothing dishes. The vegetables and fish were delicious. I think I wouldn't have found this place on my own if it weren't for a friend's recommendation. It had a cozy atmosphere, like a hidden gem, and I felt relaxed.

A cozy restaurant. The food is also quite good.
