As I was browsing through Instagram, I came across a lovely restaurant and immediately made a reservation at "Kagurazaka Tintin"! It is located between Kagurazaka Station and Iidabashi Station, about a 10-minute walk from either station. The restaurant has a lively atmosphere with a traditional Japanese house style and a curtain with the name of the restaurant at the entrance. Inside, there are both counter and table seating on the first floor, and table seating and tatami rooms on the second floor. The recommended dishes include the "Tonkatsu Sandwich," "Edo-style Stew," and "Shrimp with Chili Mayonnaise," all of which are the restaurant's specialties. The Tonkatsu Sandwich is a must-try, with a thick cutlet that is simply amazing! The Edo-style Stew is cooked with beef tendons and offal in red wine and Haccho miso, served with garlic toast that complements the dish perfectly. The Shrimp with Chili Mayonnaise has a striking presentation with a large shrimp standing upright on mashed potatoes, and it is both delicious and satisfying. They also offer a variety of drinks, including shochu with dashi, which I highly recommend. If you plan to visit this popular restaurant around 7 pm, I suggest making a reservation in advance. I will definitely visit this restaurant again in the future! Thank you for the wonderful meal!

The food is cheap and delicious! It's easy to see why this place is popular. I especially love the katsu sandwich and the shrimp mayo dish. It's cool to finish off with a katsu sandwich. They have a variety of seasonal Japanese sake. I definitely want to go back.

Kagurazaka's hidden gem izakaya. The sashimi was fresh and delicious, and the top 4 popular dishes, katsu sandwich and stew, were excellent. They offer a variety of sake from all over Japan, I wanted to try more different kinds of sake. We sat at a table this time, but next time I want to try sitting at the counter.

I had been curious about this place for a while, so I visited with three other guys. Despite its quirky name, the atmosphere inside was stylish, and the food was very satisfying. Plus, we ate and drank to our hearts' content and the bill came out to just over 20,000 yen, making it great value for money! While the staff seemed a bit intimidating, we'll definitely be going back. Next time, we want to take our time and enjoy the experience a bit more.

It was a Sunday evening, and it took almost 10 minutes to get through on the phone from Kagurazaka Station. Even though it was late, they managed to fit us in for a same-day reservation. We ordered: Negitoro and avocado dip, assorted sashimi, stew, and garlic toast (additional). Everything was of high quality, and the atmosphere was nice. It's the kind of place that makes you want to try a variety of dishes.

I was extremely surprised by how wonderful this restaurant was. The service, the food, everything was beyond satisfying. Every dish paired perfectly with alcohol, and each one exceeded my expectations! The Ebi Mayo, in particular, was generously portioned and the combination of sauce, mashed potatoes, soft-boiled egg, and mayonnaise was just perfect! The large, plump shrimp standing tall in the dish was a great touch. The red eggplant steak looked almost like beef steak, but it had a unique flavor with the rich taste of eggplant and a melt-in-your-mouth texture. The sashimi platter had large, satisfying cuts of fresh fish, and each piece was delicious. There were also various types of garnishes. Lastly, the fillet cutlet sandwich was a bit overcooked, but it was still tender and tasty, even when full. It was truly impressive!

I finally got to visit this restaurant that always seems to be full. The atmosphere was great and as expected, it was packed again today. Everything I ate was delicious! I was also happy that the drinks were reasonably priced. I hope to sit at the counter next time.

Visited Tsubaki Tsubaki in Kagurazaka for the first time. I was lucky to be able to make a same-day reservation! The entrance is from a side street on the right. The interior has a spacious counter and table seats on both sides, as well as seating on the second floor. The inside of the restaurant is quite spacious. We had a combination of oden, assorted sashimi, water eggplant, and simmered eggplant, all of which were very delicious and satisfying. If I had room in my stomach, I would have liked to try their famous stew and katsu sandwich. I'll save that for next time. It was a delicious meal. Thank you very much!!

A cozy izakaya with a traditional Japanese house style located right in the middle between Kagurazaka Station and Iidabashi Station. The stylish exterior has a nostalgic charm! I was recommended by my colleagues and decided to visit. The entrance is not along the street, so I was a bit confused at first, but I found the entrance by walking along the cobblestones at the corner of the building. When you open the sliding door, you'll find a spacious and open interior. It's much more spacious inside than you would imagine from the exterior! There are both first and second floors, making it suitable for large groups. As you enter, you'll see counter seats right in front of you. The kitchen is located behind the counter, giving it a lively atmosphere. We had a reservation for multiple people on that day, so we sat at a table, but I definitely want to sit at the counter seats next time! - Salad appetizer: A salad of surprisingly high quality for an appetizer. The crispy texture and original dressing were delicious. - Sashimi platter with 4 types: Wait, it's supposed to be 4 types...? There are 6 pieces on the plate, but they were all fresh, thick, and chewy. The staff's recommended items were really delicious. - Shrimp chili mayo: Four large shrimp placed on the plate with mashed potatoes underneath. A dish full of things I like, it made me happy. The shrimp were large and chewy, and the batter was crispy! There was no disappointment of having small shrimp under the batter, which is often the case. - Fig pate: A pate made by combining figs and butter, served with crackers. A handy dish when you crave something sweet. Women would love it. - Tomato sesame salad: Completely different from what I imagined! One whole tomato covered with original sesame dressing. It had a strong and delicious sesame flavor. - Edo-style stew: A stew with a rich flavor that goes well with alcohol. It is made by simmering beef tendon, beef tripe, and honeycomb tripe in red wine and Hatcho miso. There seemed to be a whole onion in it! It had a generous portion, and it was incredibly delicious when eaten with the garlic toast that came with it. - Cheese tofu baguette: Another dish that women would love. Cheese tofu mixed with a syrup that is closer to maple than honey, served with a baguette. It felt like a dessert! Everything was delicious, and the cost performance was great! It was packed even though it was a weekday, showing that it's a popular spot. Reservations are a must! As I mentioned at the beginning, the interior is very spacious, so it seems suitable for large drinking parties as well. Highly recommended! I will visit again.

The restaurant is located about a 10-minute walk from Kaguraza Station or Iidabashi Station. It is a traditional Japanese style restaurant. The food is really, really delicious, especially the famous cutlet sandwich which exceeded my expectations. I definitely want to come back to eat here again. The fish is fresh and large, and the eggplant and Toriten (chicken tempura) were surprisingly delicious. There were stew and oden dishes that looked appetizing, but I was too full to try them. The restaurant is dimly lit but always bustling with customers. It is recommended to make a reservation in advance.

I had sashimi, shrimp mayo, and drooling chicken. The sashimi seemed to be sourced from Uoshin in Shibuya, and it was very fresh and delicious. When I tried to order sashimi individually, I was strongly recommended to try the assorted plate, which was a bit disappointing. The shrimp mayo had large shrimp and was very satisfying. The drooling chicken had cilantro in it, so it may not be for everyone.

It takes a little walk from Iidabashi Station or Kagurazaka Station. The entrance may be a bit hard to find as it is located in a side alley next to the road facing the seats. The restaurant is always full even on weekdays, so reservations are a must. Sitting at the counter allows you to interact with the staff while choosing your dishes, which is enjoyable. The food is all excellent, especially the assorted sashimi which is both generous in portion and high in quality, very satisfying. The fig and cream cheese appetizer was so delicious that you'll want to savor every bite. There is a wide variety of drinks available, and sake pairs well with the dishes. They also offer local sake selections, making it fun to choose. The quality of the food, speed of service, and atmosphere are all top-notch, making it a place worth revisiting for sure.

The restaurant's name is pronounced Chin Chin. I was able to secure a seat by calling on the same day, so I visited the restaurant. The first floor has a spacious counter and table seats, creating an open and pleasant atmosphere. It felt larger inside than it looked from the outside. On this day, the temperature exceeded 30 degrees, and the frozen oshibori was a nice touch. The sashimi assortment included fresh tuna and thick scallops, all very fresh and easy to eat. The potato salad with smoked bacon had a flavor reminiscent of carbonara. The tonkatsu sandwich was impressive, rivaling specialized tonkatsu shops. It had a great visual impact and was deliciously sandwiched. The corn tempura was truly amazing, with the perfect balance of sweetness, smokiness, and saltiness, leaving a caramel popcorn-like aftertaste. The shumai hamburger had the richness of ground meat and a flavorful broth, with a good aroma. The sauce also had a citrus fragrance. Great value for money, generous portions. I wish I had come here sooner...

An izakaya located right in the middle between Kagurazaka and Iidabashi. When you enter, you can see the staff preparing dishes at the counter. Ordered the recommended dishes on the menu - the katsu sandwich and beef tongue stew! The katsu sandwich was generous in portion, with tender meat that was gone in no time! The beef tongue stew was rich in flavor and absolutely addictive! Other dishes on the menu were also recommended. The assorted sashimi was outstanding. Although it was a 5-item assortment, today it came with a bonus of 7 varieties! Thank you very much! And of course, the bamboo sake was a must-try! For sake lovers, this place offers great value. I will definitely be back for more!

The gap between the appearance and the interior is great, all dishes are delicious and go well with alcohol. We were guided by a young employee from the company to enter. - Assorted sashimi - Stewed dish (with garlic toast) - Chicken tempura - Grilled eggplant in foil - Katsu sandwich - Highball - Bamboo sake - Japanese sake. It's a restaurant that leaves you completely satisfied in a good way. 😊

There were many specialty dishes and the food was very delicious. Each dish was eye-catching, and when I saw the person next to me eating something, I couldn't help but order the same thing. I ordered a sashimi platter, oden platter, beef stew, and shrimp mayonnaise as the main dishes. Personally, the shrimp mayonnaise was incredibly delicious. The presentation, taste, and portion of the dishes were all perfect.

Finally managed to visit a restaurant after several failed attempts to make a reservation. The entrance is not facing the main road, which is interesting. The restaurant has a surprisingly deep layout, with even a second floor. I tried a variety of dishes including sashimi, but got too excited by the deliciousness to remember to take photos. Managed to capture the oden and stew. The stew is amazing. Seriously amazing. This place is a no-smoking establishment.

You can enjoy a relaxed izakaya meal in an old folk house. The sashimi is fresh and full of flavor, and the vegetables are juicy and delicious. We didn't get to try many dishes because it was our second stop, but the shrimp ordered by the customer next to us looked delicious! I will come back next time when I'm really hungry.

It was my first time visiting this restaurant for a second party, and I immediately felt that the atmosphere was perfect for me, with a stylish feel in an old house. The sashimi was recommended, so I tried it and it was very delicious. Everything else was also delicious, so I would like to visit again. The staff were also bright and friendly.

Tuesday 18:30 reservation. When I came on the weekend, the second floor was full, but on Tuesday, there were no customers on the second floor and the first floor was crowded. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is good. They have a wide selection of alcohol. - Sashimi platter for 4 people: Thick slices, quite satisfying. - Daikon radish oden: Unexpectedly large size with chikuwa, chikuwa-bu, hanpen, and konnyaku. The daikon radish has a rich flavor. - Shrimp chili mayo: Not very spicy, more like shrimp mayo. This was the most delicious. Thank you for the meal. The private room on the second floor that I used on my first visit was nice, suitable for entertaining clients.

We visited with a group of 6 people and found that the restaurant was quite spacious with many groups of 5-6 people dining. We initially thought it was a Chinese restaurant, but there was a variety of dishes available. The Ebi Mayo was especially delicious. All the dishes were very tasty, and my friend mentioned that it's hard to get a reservation last minute, so it made sense. We will definitely be visiting again!!!
