"Sugino" is a restaurant where you can enjoy a reasonable lunch with a daily special for 700 yen. They also offer a night menu item called "Uni Don with Sea Urchin and Saltwater Eel" for a reservation-only price of 15,000 yen. The lunch menu consists of two options: the daily special for 700 yen and Beef Curry. I visited this restaurant for the first time for lunch with my usual companion. The restaurant is located in the Sapporo Chuo Ward, in the basement of the Oak Sapporo Building. The place was not crowded when we arrived around 11:30 am on a weekday. We were seated at a table promptly and ordered the daily special for both of us. The food arrived within 2 minutes, impressively fast! The daily special included grilled horse mackerel with deliciously fatty meat, a side dish of tofu and minced meat in a gentle Japanese flavor, a salad, pickles, and miso soup. The meal was well-prepared and served hot, with warm seaweed rice. Overall, it was a satisfying and reasonably priced lunch. The highlight was the large grilled fish, perfectly seasoned and cooked. The quick service and quality of the food made it a convenient and enjoyable dining experience. I look forward to trying the daily special again next time. Thank you for the delicious meal.

Located right near the Sapporo Cultural Arts Theater. Many dishes that go well with sake. - Assorted sashimi: surf clam, Ezo abalone, scallop, tuna, octopus. The abalone was surprisingly crunchy, while the surf clam was softer. The scallop was a bit firm. There were more shellfish than fish, which was a bit disappointing for me since I prefer fish. - Grilled Okhotsk Atka mackerel: very Hokkaido-like and delicious. - Special crab dish: includes crab miso, very tasty. - Uni and salmon roe rice bowl: Uni is expensive now, but it was delicious. - Oysters (steamed, wine-steamed, grilled): the oysters were plump and large, and the best was the wine-steamed one.

Sea urchin was priced at 13,500 yen. It was about the size of my palm and I ate it all in one bite. When I asked the staff, they said it was from Rishiri. The color of the sea urchin was beautiful and the taste was rich and delicious.

The seating was in private rooms, providing a calm atmosphere. The course meal exceeded expectations, with a great selection of sake that complemented the dishes well. The uni was fresh and delicious, sourced from Rishiri, and the crab, uni, and oysters were all from Hokkaido and of high quality. The sashimi was excellent, and dishes like chawanmushi and simmered dishes were also enjoyable. I would definitely visit this restaurant again if I have the chance to go back to Hokkaido.

It was delicious. The sea urchin was fresh, sweet, and creamy. However, considering the price, there were some aspects that were a bit disappointing. The main dish was delicious, but the side dishes such as simmered dishes, pickles, soup, and vegetables were a bit underwhelming.

I was stood up a few times before, but today I arrived just in time for the opening. I was the first one in. I was seated and asked about the daily special right away. Without hesitation, I ordered the daily special set meal for 700 yen. After me, more people started coming in, and everyone ordered the daily special set meal as well. Today's special was salmon fry and minced cutlet. They warned me that it was hot when it arrived. It was indeed piping hot – the miso soup was the hottest I've ever had for lunch, and the salmon fry was also scorching. I had to be careful while eating, but it was delicious. The rice was cooked perfectly. I'm curious about the beef curry as well. If the taste is this good, I can understand why they only serve lunch until 1:00 pm. Thank you for the meal.

This day, there was only beef curry available with the option to add extra spice powder. I decided to go with the beef curry as it was only one coin, even though there was a hint of seafood being available. The curry was served quickly after ordering, and for 500 yen, it was a great option for lunch in the neighborhood. The curry had a medium level of spiciness, but adding extra spice would enhance the flavor. It came with pickled radish and salad, and the rice was delicious. The beef in the curry was tender and flavorful, making it a satisfying meal. The staff was friendly and provided good service. I am curious about the daily specials for lunch, and I would like to try the seafood dishes at night in the future at Suginoh.

It was just past 12 o'clock and I peeked in to see if there was still lunch available. Luckily, they were still serving. The fish lunch set was 700 yen, with a sweet vinegar sauce. The set included a salad, side dishes, and the main dish neatly arranged on a tray like a puzzle. I was happy to see so many dishes. The salad was always fresh and crunchy. The miso soup was piping hot, so be careful not to burn yourself. The main dish had a generous amount of vegetables in a sweet vinegar sauce. There were enough vegetables to fill a whole bowl of rice. The fish was tender and delicious. I also enjoyed the konjac and cod roe salad, which I like but rarely make at home because it's hard to finish. The stewed Chinese cabbage and glass noodles had a unique taste that I couldn't get enough of. I wish I knew the seasoning they used. In between bites, I enjoyed the pickles. The meal had a good balance of flavors.

I went out with my colleagues for the first time and it turns out I was the only one who had never been here before. I feel bad for not being able to review the food properly because I didn't eat much this time. But I did have a lot to drink - beer, shochu on the rocks, cold sake, and lemon sour. My colleagues seemed really impressed with the meal, looking at the photos it seems like everything was delicious. Oops, I should have paid more attention during the meal! This kind of thing happens during group dinners, so I need to be more careful next time. After this, I ended up feeling the worst I have in the past 10 years, but that's a secret! Thank you for the meal!

Anyway, everything was delicious. The chawanmushi was filled with crab meat, and the crab shell was packed with crab meat as well. I tried simmered cherry trout for the first time. The seasoning of each dish was just right, not too strong. I think you should also try the lemon sour. The service was good, and I had a pleasant time.

I usually decide what I want to eat before choosing a restaurant, so I don't often try the daily specials. The lunch options at this restaurant are daily specials and curry. Today's daily specials were A: Salted Chicken Karaage for 700 yen, B: Oyster Takikomi Gohan and Tonjiru set for 700 yen (only 6 servings left), and C: Curry Rice for 500 yen. I arrived just before the 11:30 opening time and managed to get the B set as one of the last customers. The food was served promptly. The oyster takikomi gohan had 4 oysters and included ingredients like shimeji mushrooms, carrots, wood ear mushrooms, konjac, and scrambled eggs. The flavor was a bit light, but still delicious. The tonjiru was hot and had a rich taste, with ingredients similar to those in the rice. It was tasty, although the soup portion was small. The side dish was tofu with nameko mushrooms, which was also very delicious. Overall, I enjoyed the meal and the restaurant had good COVID-19 precautions in place. (2022.02)

By chance, I was able to make a same-day reservation for a uni bowl due to a mistake in the chef's order, and I felt like it was fate. This season, uni has been hard to come by, so the price was higher than usual, but I was truly impressed by the deliciousness. The sweetness, richness, and creamy flavor were unforgettable. Honestly, you might not even need a side dish. The amount of rice is no joke, so don't let your guard down.

The set meals here sell out quickly. When that happens, go for the curry. It's quick to eat and easy. The curry has a slightly thin consistency. The fried onions are crispy. The spiciness kicks in afterwards. It's so easy to drink it down that you have to be conscious to chew. It's also nice that it's just one coin.

The taste was good, the service was good, so I want to go back when I come to Sapporo again. I deducted 0.5 points because some menu items were sold out. If you really want to eat items like sea urchin or oysters, I recommend checking in advance. It's a smoking-permitted restaurant, so it might be a minus point for those who dislike it, but as a smoker, I appreciated being able to smoke. The restaurant is divided into private rooms, and each table is separated by tall partitions, so they are taking thorough measures against COVID-19, which is reassuring.

Wandering new curry mania/rookie ramen mania, a solo middle-aged man. This is a memo-like review from the old man. If you want concise information about the restaurant and food, please move on to other people's reviews around here. A series of dining places used by acquaintances❔ I can't go frequently enough to make it a series. When it comes to the "center of the city", it's a bit far from my workplace, and if it's a popular and crowded place, I might not be able to make it back during my lunch break. It's also difficult if they're not open on weekends and holidays, so I've been giving up on it for a while. On a day when I had to take a day off, I suddenly thought, "I want to eat a fish-based set meal." So I made some adjustments and decided to visit. I double-checked the map and knew it was right next to "Sapporo Genesis Square," but I wasn't sure about the details. Maybe I'll figure it out when I get there❔ I arrived around 11:30. The signboard of the building (restaurant) caught my eye, making it easy to find. When I went down to the basement where the restaurant was located, a solo diner (male) also arrived at the same time. While the old man was checking the menu, the man quickly disinfected and took his temperature before entering. And he came at a time when he could definitely eat. He seems to be a regular customer. The temperature check device is a type that shades the palm, which is not often seen. As a solo diner, I was guided to a small counter seat in the back on the right side of the entrance, with two rows of three seats each. It's a layout where you face each other with your backs. It's nice to have partitions. It's a narrow area at the back, so it would be even better if ventilation was considered, but it's difficult to design. Therefore, an "air purifier" was installed, which is a nice consideration. The order was already placed when I entered, as they had asked, "Is the daily special okay?"▼Daily Lunch・Grilled horse mackerel・Boiled vegetables・Konjac/hijiki/tarako simmered dish・Mini salad・Pickles・Rice & miso soup, all for 700 yen including tax. Oh❗ The "price setting" is nice. There are "delicious Japanese restaurants" in the area around my workplace, but they cost around 1,000 yen including tax. Still, it's so delicious that there's always a line. This restaurant seems to have a lot of reviews for "uni bowls." There is a "daily price list" for seafood bowl dishes, including "uni bowls (baffun)" ranging from 3,000 yen to 9,800 yen at the entrance of the restaurant. Rare. The "uni bowl (baffun)" is said to be very delicious. But I wonder if there are people who eat it on JIMOTI❔ I'm not very interested in "sea urchin," and I get bored of it when I eat it in a bowl, so, well, "I hope those in a different world enjoy it." The previous customer was a solo diner (male), and the following customers were a solo diner (male and female) of three people. The meal was served in about five minutes after entering. Huh❔ So fast❗ In fact, I haven't been a big fan of "grilled horse mackerel" until now. I didn't have a habit of eating it at home in the first place. When I was working in Tokyo, a colleague recommended me to try "fried horse mackerel," and I thought, "This is delicious❗️" The flesh is fluffy, and the taste of the flesh is solid. It's delicious with soy sauce or sauce. It's not that expensive, and you can eat as many as you want. So when I saw "grilled horse mackerel" served at breakfast in a business trip destination (outside the prefecture)... The flesh was thin, the bones were thick and difficult to handle, there was little flesh, and almost no fat. At that time, it was common for the locals to set up a second party until the end of the trip (even though it wasn't billed, it was paid for by splitting the bill), and there was also a custom of bringing back souvenirs, so I kept going into the red by trying to save travel expenses and make up for the deficit. So, I always used "packaged hotels" to save a little on travel expenses. Anyway, there was a huge difference between the fried horse mackerel in Tokyo and the grilled horse mackerel. Is it because the fish species are different❔ The fried ones were smaller. In the midst of this, when I heard stories like "this is a Japanese breakfast," I was full of question marks. Everyone seems to be able to eat delicious "grilled horse mackerel." So, on that day, I looked at the menu and... Well, it was a bit ==========

I came here looking for a quick meal at a soba restaurant, but oh, Sugino still has set meals available. The curry is sold out. They sell out quickly here. I'll go with the set meal. As I sip on my tea and take a breather, the meal arrives soon after. It's quick, which is convenient. The surface is crispy, while the inside is juicy and delicious. It's nicely grilled and the rice is tasty. The salad is refreshing and the side dishes are also delicious. The octopus with vinegar miso sauce is a nice touch, and the well-grilled fish and elaborate side dishes make this a great deal for 700 yen. Thank you for the meal.

I visited multiple times in pursuit of the perfect sea urchin dish in Shakotan. Sea urchin bowl in Shakotan, purple, 2750 yen (limited service item). Today's sea urchin was very salty and disappointing. At this price, it's unavoidable to have a disappointing experience, but it's a shame because it was delicious last time. Looking forward to the sea urchin season in Shakotan next year!

Memo Service Limited Quantity Uni Donburi Shakotan Ezo Purple 2750 yen This was a very cost-effective sea urchin bowl. Compared to bafun uni, it may lack sweetness but it offers a satisfying taste and price. Thank you for the meal. I will definitely visit again.

Memo: Sea urchin bowl at Bafun (Shakotan) 110g for 6400 yen. Served in set meal style. Visited to try the rare Shakotan sea urchin. Although the fishing season wasn't great, the satisfaction level was high. Thank you for the meal.

I went out to the countryside in the morning and just got back, it's already lunch time. I still have work to do after this, so I shouldn't drink too much. I decided to revisit the basement of Sapporo Oakville where I had soba the other day. The Japanese restaurant I was aiming for had a sign saying "Today's daily lunch is not available, sorry," but next to it, there was a small note saying "Curry is available." So, I decided to go with the curry. The interior of the restaurant was intricate, with several small raised tatami tables and a counter seat for solo diners by the entrance. I sat at the counter seat facing the wall in a cozy room with 6 seats for solo diners. A waitress soon came over and I ordered the "regular size curry for 500 yen." The tray arrived in about 5 minutes, with curry, salad, tea, water, fukujinzuke, and a spoon. The salad consisted of lettuce with a dressing that had a tangy yuzu-like acidity. The curry had a rich flavor, although personally I felt it was a bit too salty. The rice was cooked firm and went well with the curry, but I felt like there wasn't enough rice. The curry had chunks of beef and a strong beef broth flavor, making it a good deal for the price. More customers started coming in, mainly local office workers. If you ever feel like having curry for lunch near Sapporo Station or Odori, I recommend giving this place a try. Next time, I'll try the daily lunch menu. Thank you for the meal.

This is a seafood restaurant located in the basement of a building in the city. There are multiple dining options in the same underground area, making it convenient. In addition to the regular menu, they offer daily specials and curry for lunch. The daily specials vary, sometimes offering cost-effective options like seafood bowls or sea urchin bowls. The grilled fish set meal is commonly available, featuring seasonal fish that are very delicious. They take thorough measures against COVID-19, such as partitions between tables and alcohol disinfection, which is also a great point.
