The newly opened neon sign of the cute glowing charcoal-grilled pork and sake bar TONTON in Kabukicho is so lovely that you can't help but want to take photos. I made a reservation for 3 people and we were guided to the basement floor for our seats. The restroom was located on the same floor, which made us feel safe even while drinking. The variety of drinks, from Sapporo draft beer to shochu, wine, and sake, was pleasing. The salted cabbage appetizer was refillable once for free, and the portion was quite generous. The pork skewers were reasonably priced at 100 yen each, with a variety of options all beautifully arranged on the plate. The ham cutlet, also on the menu, was thickly cut and served in a way that seemed perfect for sharing. The menu also included rice dishes, and the TONTON fried rice with chunks of roasted pork was delicious. I tried ordering cream cheese as a snack, and it came with sauce on crackers, a new way of serving cream cheese that I had never seen before. The staff were mostly foreigners, giving the place an international vibe that made me feel like traveling abroad. This pop-style izakaya in Kabukicho is perfect for students or anyone looking for a stylish yet affordable place to drink. They accept PayPay payments.

◼️Previous Tabelog Rating: 3.14 (September 2023) Genre: Izakaya, Motsuyaki, Izakaya ◼️Overall Impression: Open 24 hours!!! Menu has everything!!! It's like the convenience store of izakayas!!! It's close to the station, and even though it's in Kabukicho, it doesn't feel intimidating to enter, so it's great for when young people can't go home! It could also be good for older guys who want to casually drink with their younger colleagues but are hesitant to take them to a deep place, like, "But it's tough to eat junk food like fried potatoes." The atmosphere of the restaurant is appealing to young people, and the older guys can enjoy dishes like Cobukuro sashimi! It's a neo-tavern! ◼️Food We Had: - Otooshi (cabbage with seasoned salted kelp) - Chilled tomatoes - Nagaimo pickles - Grilled liver - Grilled heart - Grilled pork belly - Various drinks ◆Otooshi: It was cabbage! It had flavor! It had salted kelp on it! ◆Chilled Tomatoes: Properly chilled, well done!!! Some places write "chilled tomatoes" but they're not really cold! ◆Nagaimo Pickles: I was happy to be able to eat a lot!!! It was generous in portion! I like this, so I order it every time. ◆Grilled Liver and Grilled Heart: I usually like liver, but I preferred the heart here! I couldn't really tell about the grilled fat, but too much fat is bad for your health, so this healthier option might be better. ◆Grilled Pork Belly: Fatty! I like that it's straightforward haha. A skewer of just fat! The sauce here is strong, so it really shines with cuts that repel sauce. ◼️Interior: Tables and such! It feels like a neo-tavern! ◼️Crowdedness: It was crowded! ◼️Service: They quickly cleared the plates, making it easy to order at that time. The girls working there were really nice and cute! ◼️Going Alone: It's not impossible to go alone, but it's better with multiple people, I think.

Having a quick lunch drink in Shinjuku! I had plans for the day so I opted for a non-alcoholic drink♪ It's rare to find Sapporo's Premium Free here (゚д゚)! I'm happy♪ ☝︎ Recommended points: - Cute neon decor - Open 24 hours - Private rooms available - Yakitori starting from 88 yen - Large menu selection - Variety of lemon sours Starting with summer recommendations: - Salmon and green onion salt yukhoe (580 yen): Fatty salmon with plenty of sliced onions and a refreshing sesame oil seasoning, delicious! - Yakitori platter (7 skewers, 649 yen): You can order in sets of 2 skewers, but the platter is recommended for those who want to try various types! Choose between sauce or salt, I recommend salt! The pork neck, pork cartilage, pork brain, liver, heart, and tongue skewers were all incredibly delicious (╹◡╹)♡ - Fresh squid innards sashimi (539 yen): Firm and fresh squid innards! Best eaten with sesame oil and garlic, the vinegar miso is also great. - Hormone fried chicken (495 yen): A soft and flavorful fried chicken, easy to eat a lot of due to the strong flavor! - Pork trotters with vinegar miso (495 yen): Served cold, but since I don't like cold pork trotters, they kindly warmed it up for me (*´ω`*) It's also a great spot for morning or lunch drinks, not just for nighttime visits, as it's open 24 hours! The variety of alcohol is also impressive, and there are few yakitori places as cute as this one, making it easy for young people to visit (╰(*´︶`*)╯♡).

A 24-hour izakaya located on Kabukicho Ichiban-gai. The otoshi is raw cabbage with salted kelp sprinkled on top. The draft beer is Black Label. A single glass of draft beer costs 390 yen excluding tax. All-you-can-drink with draft beer included costs 1,480 yen excluding tax. It's okay to stay even after the 2-hour all-you-can-drink period ends (maybe because it was daytime?). A bottle of Kuro Kirishima costs 2,280 yen excluding tax, and you can even keep the bottle. The food menu includes seafood in addition to grilled pork, but the hormone dishes were the best. One skewer of grilled pork costs 88 yen including tax. After enjoying all-you-can-drink and two bottles of alcohol, three people stayed for about 7 hours and spent just under 23,000 yen.

Tonight, I went to the charcoal-grilled yakitori and sake bar TONTON in Shinjuku. We decided to have a drink in Kabukicho for a change and chose this place without making a reservation. The interior of the restaurant was visible from outside, and the reasonable prices caught our attention, so we decided to give it a try. It's not uncommon in this area to have 24-hour service, so you can cheers anytime. They have both table and counter seats, and they can accommodate a 30-minute wait as well. I asked the staff if they had a semi-private room, and we were guided to the semi-private room on the second floor. They offer various courses, but since we decided to go without a reservation, we ordered a la carte. I like to call out to passing staff to place orders, like a Showa-era man, so I said, "Cheers, let's have a two-person cheers in Kabukicho tonight." Sapporo Black Label draft beer (medium) for 429 yen, I learned that the current market price for a medium draft beer is around 450 yen. The deliciousness that spreads throughout my body as soon as I take a sip, this is it, this is the first taste of draft beer. I wanted to choose sake, so I didn't opt for the all-you-can-drink plan but ordered a la carte. The appetizer was salted kombu cabbage. I prefer salt or miso on cabbage, so the salted kombu was perfect for me. The amount might be fine for young people, but a bit too much for us. I'll leave it aside and eat it slowly. Potato salad for 539 yen, a benchmark dish for izakayas, with different variations at each restaurant. It was served with a large spoon that seemed dedicated to this dish, packed tightly. The thinly sliced flight onion on top adds a subtle flavor. Lightly seasoned and delicious, we enjoyed it while waiting for the next dish. Octopus with ponzu sauce for 638 yen, recommended for summer, quite a large portion but we were pleased with the quick service. Ponzu sauce is common with chicken or pork, but not often seen with seafood (although I often have it at home). The ponzu sauce was more generous than I expected, and it was very tasty. Assorted sashimi for 1,089 yen, the sashimi varies depending on the day, tonight it was tuna, octopus, and salmon. I didn't expect octopus to be included, but it was delicious, so no problem. It's a bit too much for two people, but we managed to get a bit more by asking nicely, just between us. Masumi sake for 869 yen, I accidentally ordered another beer, but still, I chose sake to go with the sashimi. With various well-known breweries available, I chose a sake from Nagano tonight. The taste has improved even more since they switched to using only 7th-generation yeast for brewing, and Masumi is even more delicious now. We'll continue to enjoy it. Assorted raw meat for 1,078 yen, following the sashimi, the raw meat consisted of heart, pork liver, and tongue. Although it's cooked at low temperatures due to current circumstances, safety comes first. I'll enjoy the liver with sesame oil, which is a classic pairing. I don't usually put much green onion on it, but when I tried it, it was delicious. I've always wanted to try shaking salt on the tongue, so I did. Shake it lightly, and when you see the moisture rising to the surface, eat it quickly. Delicious, delicious. Yamazaki highball for 935 yen, I wanted to have a highball with the fried food, so I chose Yamazaki. I was happy with the low amount of ice, and it seems like I'll finish it in no time. Fried chicken cartilage for 575 yen, chicken cartilage is often grilled, so fried chicken cartilage is rare. I was expecting a few pieces, but the portion was substantial, I wonder if we can finish it. Squeezing plenty of lemon on it, it had a light curry flavor, which was delicious. The combination with the highball was unbelievably good. Skewer assortment (7 pieces) for 748 yen, I have a bad habit of only choosing my favorite cuts when ordering a la carte, so I went with the chef's choice this time. I don't know how the combinations are decided, but tonight it was tongue, kashira, pork belly, belly, teppo, liver, and beans. All the skewers were delicious, but the kashira and belly with mustard were exceptional. There are ashtrays at each table, so smoking is allowed throughout, but we didn't feel the purple smoke from the floor tonight. Delicious food, delicious sake, let's enjoy them together.

There is a prominent building on the main street of Kabukicho Ichibangai. The restaurant TONTON, specializing in grilled pork and sake, has two floors from B1 to 2F, and I was guided to the 2F as I had made a reservation. The 2F seats are almost like private rooms, with doors that can be closed, which is nice! The prices for grilled pork range from 80 yen to 120 yen, which is quite reasonable. We ordered the assorted grilled pork set with 7 skewers for 680 yen, and the staff recommended the salt flavor. They were all delicious! It's also nice to eat them with mustard. The potato salad for 390 yen was neatly arranged in a round shape, and the addition of smoked bacon was a nice touch. We also ordered the assorted raw meat platter for 980 yen, which included liver, heart, and tongue. Especially the liver was moist and had a great taste. The octopus vinegar for 580 yen was recommended as a summer menu item, and the crunchy octopus was delicious. The thick-cut ham cutlet for 390 yen had a crispy coating and was irresistible. The stewed tripe for 450 yen came in a bowl-like plate, not a small dish, and had a spicy and delicious flavor. We also ordered two skewers each of asparagus-wrapped meat for 180 yen and tomato-wrapped meat for 180 yen. You can order skewers in sets of two to get your vegetable intake. The lemon sour for 450 yen was generously filled with lemon. We also had a highball for 390 yen and Hoppy for 500 yen or 250 yen for a small size. The toilets were clean and separate for men and women. Smoking was allowed in the 2F private rooms. Whether it's your first or second stop, this restaurant offers good value for money and is easy to use.

Today, I went to the movies as usual and afterwards decided to have a drink before heading home. I wandered around the movie theater area, feeling the intense heat of the day. I wanted to get inside a shop quickly to escape the heat. I found a spacious and new shop to enter. I opted for the all-you-can-drink option since it was a good deal for two or more drinks. I ordered a platter of skewers and salmon with green onion yukhoe. The menu had a lot of meat skewer options and some dishes that seemed Korean-inspired. The staff were foreigners but very efficient. The place is called Neo Sakaba and apparently gets more lively with neon lights at night, but during the day it had a normal atmosphere. The food was delicious and reasonably priced for an izakaya in the area. It's open 24 hours and spans from the second floor to the basement. It's convenient for those who miss the last train around here. Also, smoking is allowed.

I visited TONTON Shinjuku, a charcoal-grilled yakitori and sake bar located about a 4-minute walk from Shinjuku Station! After finishing work as usual, my work colleagues and I decided to have a few drinks and stumbled upon this restaurant in the heart of Kabukicho. The neon lights of the sign drew us in to this large izakaya spanning from the basement to the second floor. Inside, we were surprised to find the place almost full of young customers, with smoking allowed, which was a paradise. We were seated at a table in the basement and checked out the extensive menu, which offered a wide variety of dishes from grilled skewers to seafood delicacies and meat dishes like meat sashimi. The drink selection was also diverse, ranging from sour cocktails to sake and shochu. We ordered some dishes including raw heart sashimi, squid tempura, salmon and green onion salt yukhoe, grilled liver, pickled long yam, addictive cucumbers, and liver yukhoe, which was highly praised by my colleagues. The atmosphere was lively with a constant flow of customers coming and going, and the restaurant seemed to be relatively new, having been open for about half a year. It was clean and spacious with 200 seats, and we found out that it operates 24 hours. Overall, it was a delicious and enjoyable experience!

On Friday night, four of us visited this restaurant for the second time. Despite many places being full, we were lucky to get a table here! The restaurant had a lively atmosphere, and the staff were foreigners. We were seated in a semi-private area. There were also completely private rooms with doors that could be closed.

Three bosses took me out for dinner and, surprisingly, I decided to join them for a second round of fun. I usually don't drink, so I usually just stick to dinner for the first round. As we entered Kabukicho, even though it was a weekday night, there were so many people bustling about. Ever since the Kabukicho Tower was built, the area has become lively again, returning to its former glory. As we strolled around, we came across a beautifully lit up shop with a cute pig illustration linked to its name. Yes, this was the "Charcoal Grilled Pork Tavern TONTON". It looked really crowded, so I thought we wouldn't be able to get in, but they let us in without any trouble. We were led downstairs, and it seemed like the whole building belonged to this shop. It was packed, and the success of this place was evident. We were seated at a table, and we ordered: ◆Addictive Cucumber - 418 yen ◆Long Potato Pickles - 418 yen ◆Octopus Kimchi - 418 yen ◆Pork Motsu Nabe - 990 yen They served salted cabbage as a starter, and it seemed like ordering one dish per person was a must. Since we were already full from the first round, we couldn't order their recommended dishes, but I would like to try them next time. The place was clean, and the staff, who were Chinese, spoke fluent Japanese and were fantastic.

Charcoal-grilled izakaya TONTON Shinjuku store is open until morning, so I used it for a second party after missing the last train and getting drunk. We hardly ordered any food, and mainly stayed for drinks only. The visual impact from the outside is quite impressive! It looks like a restaurant you would find in Korea or Macau. They have a wide variety of drinks at affordable prices, making it perfect for a second party. We did order some food, but the selection seemed somewhat limited. Thank you for the meal.

Tokyo, Shinjuku-ku. Kabukicho. I was invited for a nomihoudai (all-you-can-drink) and entered the establishment. I was guided to the second floor and ordered a nomihoudai with beer included. It cost 1,628 yen. I always try to get my money's worth. I toasted with a glass of draft beer. The otoshi (appetizer) cost 429 yen. I ordered a plate of 7 skewers for 748 yen with salt seasoning. I also had addictive cucumbers for 418 yen, skewered pork for 572 yen, stir-fried hormone meat for 649 yen, and pig trotters with vinegar miso for 495 yen. I didn't order that much. Thank you for the meal.

TONTON, a yakitori and sake bar spanning from the basement floor to the second floor with a total of 200 seats, is an amazing place for pork lovers to gather. While they offer non-pork items on the menu, the focus is definitely on pork dishes. Here is what was ordered: - Braised pig's feet - Seared chashu (pork belly slices) - Ton teki (pork steak) - Bacon and cheese wrapped skewers - Lettuce wrapped skewers - Tomato wrapped skewers - Asparagus wrapped skewers - Salmon yukhoe (Korean-style raw salmon) - Shizuoka strawberry sake - Daiyame (sweet potato shochu) The appetizer was fresh cabbage, a nice palate cleanser. The braised pig's feet were a must-try at a pork-centric restaurant, and they were deliciously tender with a collagen-rich broth. The seared chashu was a perfect drinking snack. The assorted skewers, especially the bacon and cheese wrapped skewers, were all tasty. The salmon yukhoe was a recommended special menu item and was a refreshing choice. The strawberry sake was a delightful fruity option, and the daiyame was a pleasant surprise for those who prefer shochu over sake. It's worth noting that the restaurant is open 24 hours, making it a convenient spot for those who miss the last train in Shinjuku. Smokers will appreciate the smoking-friendly environment.

I visited the new izakaya "TONTON" in Shinjuku with a friend on this day. Located in the middle of Kabukicho, this stylish izakaya offers a variety of reasonably priced dishes. The interior is decorated with colorful neon lights, creating a fun atmosphere to enjoy with friends. As the name suggests, the menu mainly focuses on pork dishes, along with other izakaya favorites. Some of the dishes we ordered were: Salmon Negi Salt Yukke (¥580), Tan Shichu (¥715), TONTON Gyoza (¥462), Sangen Pork Gyoza (¥495), Pork Foot Stew (¥539), and Homemade Nori Mentaiko Pizza (¥690). The gyoza was particularly delicious, with a chewy skin and juicy meat filling. The pork foot, rich in collagen, was melt-in-your-mouth tender and a rare find at an izakaya. The homemade nori mentaiko pizza was surprisingly voluminous for its price, with a perfect balance of cheese, mentaiko saltiness, and seaweed flavor. The selection of drinks was also Instagram-worthy, making our experience even more enjoyable. It's rare to find such affordable dining options in Shinjuku, especially in Kabukicho. I highly recommend visiting the "TONTON" neo-izakaya for a great time with friends.

Store Name: Sumiya Yakiton Sakaba Tonton Location: Shinjuku Yakiton Izakaya In the bustling streets of Shinjuku's Kabukicho, stands out a distinctive neon sign of Sumiya Yakiton Sakaba Tonton♪ A cute pink neon sign that is easy to spot in the street-front location. You won't get lost even if you have a meeting point here! The newly renovated interior is clean and comfortable, with a youthful and colorful atmosphere. I was looking for a place that serves food early, and this place caught my eye. The menu offers a variety of options from yakitori and grilled pork to sashimi and pasta. It's perfect for those who want to eat a lot without breaking the bank! I started with a lemon sour for a toast! The cabbage with sesame oil and salted kelp served as an appetizer. The recommended onion and salmon dish was delicious! For the yakitori, I tried the tomato-wrapped pork, asparagus-wrapped pork, shiitake mushrooms, and eringi mushrooms, all seasoned with salt. They were all delicious and reasonably priced! The yakiton gyoza was juicy, and the chicken karaage was also to my liking. The grilled liver skewers were surprisingly good for the price! The restaurant's interior is new, clean, cute, and all the dishes we ordered were a hit. However, the only downside was the smoke from the neighboring table, as it is a smoking-friendly establishment. For smokers, it's a great place, but for non-smokers, it might be a bit uncomfortable. Overall, I think it's a great spot for those who enjoy a smoke with their meal!

On a regular weekday afternoon, I went for day drinking with friends and stumbled upon a neon-lit restaurant. The place was bustling even in the daytime. Some might wonder why we were drinking on a weekday, but everyone has different days off, right? Luckily, my close friends had the day off. This restaurant is open 24 hours, which is convenient. And they serve my friend's favorite, yakitori! We toasted with beer and shochu with fresh lemon. I usually only have one lemon sour, but it was so good that I ended up having it throughout. The complimentary cabbage with salted kelp dressing was a nice touch. We ordered various yakitori skewers like liver, heart, chicken tail, and pork cartilage. The sizes were surprisingly generous for the price. We chose salt seasoning for all of them. The garlic skewer was a standout with its juicy and tender texture. The staff mentioned that the pork cartilage is particularly delicious compared to the chicken one, and they were right! We also ordered pork belly and tomato skewer, which had a nice balance of flavors. The TONTON gyoza was a pleasant surprise with its meaty filling and chewy skin. The homemade mentaiko cheese pizza was also a hit with its unique toppings. We usually have dessert, but today we were satisfied with the lemon sour and pizza. It was a fun two hours spent at the restaurant!

It's been a while since I visited Kabukicho. After watching a movie, I was drawn to a particularly eye-catching exterior and decided to go in for a drink. Despite the rain, they quickly took my umbrella and stored it in a plastic cover, which was a nice touch. The restaurant has 3 floors with 200 seats, from the basement to the 2nd floor. This time, they prepared a private room separated by a curtain on the basement floor for us. The neon lights and exotic atmosphere make it a great place to hang out with friends. The basement seats filled up quickly, indicating it's a popular spot. We toasted with a Hakushu highball, and I was pleased to see they had Hakushu, Yamazaki, Hibiki, and other whiskies available. The drink menu is extensive, including beer, sours, shochu, cocktails, sake, wine, and more. I stuck with my favorite Hakushu highball that day. The appetizer was cabbage with salted kelp and sesame oil, a perfect snack. They offer refills too. The TONTON salad is packed with leafy greens and veggies, with finely chopped chashu and tempura adding a nice touch. The sesame dressing pairs perfectly. The TONTON gyoza has a thick, chewy skin and a juicy, flavorful filling. The shiitake mushrooms are juicy and delicious. The asparagus and lettuce wraps are fresh and crispy, complementing the savory pork belly perfectly. The garlic chips are a must-try. The crispy pickled nagaimo is a great snack. The tender pork stew is served with baguette. The tonkatsu with cabbage and mayonnaise is a hit. I always crave white rice with it. The TONTON fried rice is slightly sweet, loaded with chashu, egg, and mixed vegetables. Perfect for a lively night out with friends. The skewers and gyoza are recommended. It's open 24 hours, perfect for the never-sleeping Kabukicho.

Ne-Yaki Buta Sakaba in Shinjuku Kabukicho. Open 24 hours with 200 seats, making it easy to visit even at night! They offer a wide range of dishes at a good cost performance, from their signature pork skewers to fried foods, seafood, kushikatsu, otsumami, and oden. Of course, they also have a wide variety of drinks. - Location: 6 minutes walk from Shinjuku Station - Business hours: Open 24 hours - Regular holiday: None - Crowdedness: Visited on a weekday night. Was able to enter immediately. Started with today's recommendations: Korean seaweed (¥280), assorted oden (¥490), salmon negi shio yukke (¥580). Received salted cabbage with salted kelp as an appetizer. The crispy and moist cabbage with salted kelp and sauce makes you crave for alcohol. For my first drink, I had Ginger Umeshu (¥500). This place has many interesting menu items like "Otsukare Sour," "Tower Lemon Sour," and "First Love Sour," which made it hard to choose. The Ginger Umeshu was a thick umeshu in a jug, rich and sweet. The assorted oden had radish, kelp, konjac, chikuwa, etc., with the egg being particularly delicious. A must-try here is the Yagen Nankotsu Karaage (¥520), thick-cut ham katsu (¥380), vegetable skewers: garlic (¥100), and negima (¥100). The Yagen Nankotsu Karaage has a curry flavor with crispy batter and crunchy cartilage like tempura. The ham katsu with sauce is crispy on the outside and packed with thick ham. Eat the skewers while they're hot. Especially the negima was good with the sweetness of the leeks in the sauce. The vegetable skewer with garlic has a salty taste followed by a refreshing garlic flavor that becomes addictive. For grilled fish, I had sake. They offer a wide range of sake prices from cost-effective options like "Gokai" to the izakaya classic "Dassai 45" and "Kubota Manju." Today, I had Kubota Manju (1 cup ¥1650). It was served in a large sake cup, equivalent to about 4 small cups. Enjoyed it with the plump Grilled Shishamo (¥450). Ended with Ume Ochazuke (¥320). The location attracts many Chinese staff, but they are attentive and responsive to customer calls, which was very impressive.

I went to a new yakitori restaurant in Kabukicho. As a fan of yakitori, I was very excited! The all-you-can-drink option was cheap (((o(*゚▽゚*)o))). I started with a watermelon sour. The salted cabbage appetizer and cheers! The food menu is also very extensive. The grilled liver and grilled heart are available, which is fantastic (。 >艸<). Not only yakitori, but also meat sashimi and sashimi are cheap and delicious! Private rooms are also appreciated. I want to make good use of this place. Thank you for the meal m(_ _)m.

The salted kombu cabbage appetizer was so addictive, and you could even get a refill. Amazing! It's been a while since I've been to Kabukicho. I almost forgot how to navigate the underground area of Shinjuku. The crowds are definitely back in Shinjuku. I was invited to a spacious and clean yakitori restaurant near the Shinjuku Toho Building. The first floor had a nice atmosphere with large windows, but we were seated in a private room on the second floor. They had a drink all-you-can plan for 2 hours at 980 yen, and skewers starting from 88 yen each. The prices were surprisingly cheap, especially compared to the small and dingy izakayas in Shinbashi that I'm used to. I was surprised to find such an izakaya in Kabukicho. We ordered salads, skewers, and fried foods to our heart's content. They had unique items like "Yagen Nankotsu Karaage" and "Hormone Karaage," which were delicious. I discovered that even hormone meat can be tasty when fried. We didn't opt for the all-you-can-drink option that day (I wanted to drink "Hibiki," and my companions weren't big drinkers), so we each ordered a couple of drinks. We ended the meal by leisurely sipping white wine and eating octopus. The octopus had a punchy spice, maybe it was wasabi powder? It was so spicy that it made me tear up a bit! The restroom was clean and there was nothing to complain about. It was a very cozy yakitori restaurant.

When going out for drinks in Kabukicho, there are many chain stores and interesting places (not cabarets), but this time I went to a cheap and delicious restaurant. Kabukicho is a convenient place to visit after work or while out and about, so I often stop by, but this may be my first time trying grilled pork. There are plenty of yakiniku restaurants around, so I've been to quite a few. The restaurant is located in a place that feels like Kabukicho, but the interior is newly renovated and sparkling clean. Old shops sometimes have sticky floors, so I choose carefully who to bring, but with a new shop, I have no worries about who to go with, so it gets high marks for that. Looking at the menu, skewers are around 100 yen each, and sours are in the 300 yen range, which is surprisingly cheap. In this type of situation, I thought the meat on the skewers would be very small, but they are actually a decent size. Even after eating about 10 skewers and drinking 3 sours, it only costs around 2000 yen, which is astonishingly cost-effective. By the way, the skewers are crispy and delicious, not like the microwaved style at izakayas. I also ordered potato salad, ham cutlet, and other favorites. As it is a meat-focused restaurant, the potato salad has bacon in it, and the ham cutlet is thick and meaty. The tonton salad also has grilled pork in it, making it very meaty. It goes perfectly with a matcha highball. I wish there was a restaurant like this nearby, as it is open 24 hours. Going for drinks on a Sunday afternoon is the best. In conclusion, I indulged in eating and drinking quite a bit, but it didn't even reach 3000 yen per person. I have found a restaurant with amazing cost-effectiveness in this era of rising prices.
