A new izakaya has opened on the backstreet of Komagome 1-chome, where a tempura shop used to be. It's conveniently located near the station and I hope it stands out! The owner used to work at another restaurant and has now opened their own place. The menu is a bit limited, but the master is working hard to run the place on their own. It's counter seating only, but it was bustling with acquaintances when I visited. Komagome is a tough area for restaurants to survive, so I hope they do well!
