I visited the restaurant on a weekday evening. At first, the atmosphere was quiet, but gradually the surrounding seats started to fill up. I could see businessmen and middle-aged men who seemed like regulars enjoying lively conversations. As I picked up the menu, I saw a variety of dishes featuring fresh seafood. I ordered the fresh mackerel sashimi, natural yellowtail sashimi, and fried squid. The fresh mackerel sashimi stood out with its freshness, served with a soy-based sauce. The natural yellowtail sashimi was thick yet tender, with a perfect amount of fat. The fried squid had a crispy exterior and a juicy interior with a savory saltiness. For drinks, I started with a draft beer and then enjoyed a sudachi sour with a refreshing citrus flavor. The bill for the day, despite ordering several dishes, was only 3500 yen, which surprised me with its great value. It was a satisfying restaurant experience, and I would definitely recommend stopping by when visiting Akihabara.

I visited Akihabara Gyoko Kaikai-san for lunch on a regular day. They open at 11:30 AM, and there was already a line of 9 people 5 minutes before opening. I joined the line as the 5th person. Kaikai-san is a popular izakaya lunch spot known for its affordable seafood dishes. I was able to enter as soon as they opened and quickly ordered the special seafood bowl for 1,000 yen, with a free upgrade to a large size. The bowl arrived in just 6 minutes, with around 12-13 types of seafood arranged in a circle. It also came with miso soup and a generous salad, making it a great value for the price. The sashimi was fresh and delicious, explaining its popularity. It's recommended to visit early during lunchtime as the place gets crowded with office workers. Thank you for the meal.

When I went to Tokyo for business, I visited this restaurant with a young friend who accompanied me. It was right after opening on a weekday (5 pm). The restaurant is located along Showa Street (National Route 4) to the northeast of Akihabara Station. It's about a 3-4 minute walk from the Showa Street exit of the station, making it a very convenient location. A white sign with the restaurant's name is displayed above the entrance. The restaurant is on the first floor of an 8-story building. The exterior looks very traditional Japanese, with white lanterns hanging by the entrance. Inside, the decor is clean and traditional Japanese. Surprisingly, it had a deep layout. There were about 8 tables for 2-4 people each. Several male staff members were efficient and quick. When we arrived, we were the only customers, but more people started coming in shortly after. It seems to be a popular place. The other customers were mostly groups of 2-4 salarymen or middle-aged men dining alone, indicating that it has a lot of regulars. The menu offers a variety of dishes such as sashimi, grilled dishes, fried dishes, simmered dishes, other izakaya-style dishes, and meal options. As the name suggests, seafood seems to be their specialty. The prices were reasonable. My friend and I ordered "Fresh mackerel sashimi for 1,000 yen," "Dashimaki with Kujo green onions for 720 yen," "Natural yellowtail sashimi for 950 yen," "Cucumber salted kelp salad for 400 yen," and "Deep-fried mego fish for 650 yen" (all prices include tax). I had a draft beer and a sudachi sour to drink. There was no appetizer. The food and drinks were served promptly. The dishes were all delicious, with simple cooking methods that allowed the ingredients to shine. The three standout dishes were the fresh mackerel sashimi, the natural yellowtail sashimi, and the deep-fried mego fish. The mackerel sashimi had a unique taste, with a good balance of flavors and textures. The natural yellowtail sashimi was fresh and had a delicate texture, while the deep-fried mego fish had a light saltiness and a rich umami flavor. It paired well with the sudachi sour. I also read that the seafood bowl for lunch is delicious, so I would love to try it if I have the chance.

I chose this restaurant based on good reviews I found online, and I was impressed by the variety of seafood dishes on the menu. The dishes I tried, such as the snow crab miso, yellowtail collar, ray fin, rolled omelette with Kujo green onions, and deep-fried Japanese butterbur, were all delicious. The yellowtail collar was much larger and meatier than I expected, and it was really tasty. I also enjoyed drinking plenty of alcohol and eating to my heart's content for just around 4000 yen, so it was great value for money. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

Today I had some business in Akihabara, so I looked it up and decided to stop by Kaikai for a meal. When I arrived, there was already a line forming, so I patiently waited my turn. The turnover was quite fast, and before I knew it, I was seated. I was glad I didn't have to wait in the heat for a long time. I had already placed my order while waiting in line, so I just sat and waited for my food. When my seafood bowl arrived, it was delicious. The cost performance was good too, so I've decided I'll definitely come back again.

I have been to Nihonbashi, but also visited Akihabara. This place is smaller. The drinks and food are served quickly, great service. The sashimi and Seki mackerel are delicious. I don't have a photo, but the corn tempura recommended for the season was just perfect! It was sweet and amazing, I ended up ordering more. On Fridays, it's fully booked with reservations. Considering the service, quality, and cost performance, it's worth it!

Lunchtime is ending earlier now~ Today's lunch was the seafood bowl at Kaikai in Akihabara❣️ It was fresh and delicious as always~! From red shrimp to white fish, fatty tuna, scallops, yellowtail, sardines, squid, and more, you can enjoy a variety of fish on vinegar rice for only 1000 yen, which is an amazing deal❗️ I lined up around 12:30 today, and they sold out after the person behind me, so it's becoming a popular spot❗️ #AkihabaraLunchClub #AkihabaraKaikai #SeafoodBowl

Today's lunch was at "Akihabara Gyokou Kaikai" located near Akihabara Station along Showa Street (photo 1). The restaurant specializes in seafood dishes. The photo 2 shows the lunch menu displayed in front of the restaurant. I arrived at around 11:20 AM, earlier than the opening time of 11:30 AM. I thought I came too early, but a line started forming about 5 minutes before the opening time, so I realized it was the right decision. At 11:30 AM, I was invited inside and seated at a table for two near the entrance. The table in front of me remained empty until I finished my meal, which was a nice gesture. I ordered the "Grilled Atka Mackerel Set Meal (¥1,000)" with extra rice (free). In about 4 minutes, my meal arrived (photo 3). The meal included a large grilled Atka mackerel with a side of sashimi (tuna and negitoro without green onions). The miso soup was clam miso soup, which had a rich and comforting flavor. The portion size was satisfying, and with the free extra rice and salad, the cost performance was excellent. This restaurant is a great choice for seafood lovers looking for delicious meals at a reasonable price. When I left, the line was still there. Additionally, I was able to pay using PayPay.

When I went out for drinks at night, I found that the seafood was delicious, so I checked on Tabelog and realized they also serve lunch. I visited and tried the 1000 yen lunch, which included a seafood bowl as well as grilled fish and simmered dishes. I arrived around noon and there were about 10 people ahead of me, but the turnover was fast and I was able to get in quickly. The seafood bowl had great value for money and was delicious. The shrimp was particularly fresh.

A seafood restaurant located along Showa Street. The interior has about six small tables, so seating is limited. By 1 o'clock, the grilled dishes were already sold out, so I ordered the seafood bowl. After a short wait, a seafood bowl with plenty of ingredients arrived. Although I felt a bit uneasy since it's not a sushi restaurant, overall it was just as good as eating at a regular sushi restaurant. Only one piece of the toppings was a bit watery. The sweet shrimp and octopus were especially delicious. Also, the miso soup had clams in it, which was a nice touch. The evening menu seems reasonably priced, so it seems like a convenient place to use as a seafood izakaya as well.

I arrived at the restaurant just before opening time in the late morning and found a line of 3 people waiting outside. The restaurant was a bit delayed in opening, but once it did, we were seated promptly with menus and water. I ordered the special seafood bowl for ¥1000, which many other customers also seemed to be ordering. The kitchen had 2 chefs, one of whom was a foreigner, and there were 2 staff members serving tables. After a short wait, my special seafood bowl arrived, with a generous amount of toppings but a small portion of rice. The miso soup was made with clams and the mini salad was tasty. I enjoyed adding wasabi soy sauce to the toppings and dipping them in soy sauce with wasabi for extra flavor. When I left, I saw a long line of people waiting outside the restaurant.

Closed on weekends and holidays, Akihabara fishing port Kaimi has a slightly high hurdle to reach. On the way there, I was tempted by the Thursday-only queue for beef tongue stew, but I stayed true to my original plan and arrived as the first customer at the opening. I ordered the special seafood bowl for 1000 yen with extra large serving. The dish featured 15 types of seafood, with botan shrimp as the centerpiece. The yellowtail tuna was so fresh that the soy sauce bounced off it, and had a crunchy texture. The botan shrimp was also firm and juicy, and the negitoro with shiso leaf was a delightful combination. I enjoyed the remaining seafood with wasabi soy sauce, and finished off with clam miso soup and salad as a palate cleanser. I left feeling full and satisfied. d(´ڡ`๑)

Seafood bowl for lunch! More than 10 types of fresh seafood neatly arranged in a circle, served with salad and miso soup with clams for 1100 yen. The fish is so fresh and delicious! It's busy during lunchtime with customers coming in one after another, but the service is quick so the turnover is not bad and it's easy to get a seat.

Today's lunch was at Akihabara! Had the special seafood bowl at Kaikai-san, with 14 slices of sashimi! Everything was delicious. Especially loved the red shrimp, thick-cut yellowtail, and white fish today. The miso soup with clams was also so tasty. And all of this for just 1000 yen is such a great deal! #AkihabaraKaikaiFishMarket #AkihabaraLunch #AsakusabashiLunch #DeliciousSeafoodBowl

Yesterday's lunch was a bit early at Akihabara, but I couldn't resist lining up for this buri (yellowtail) set meal! Even though it was before 12 o'clock, there was a bit of a line, but the buri set meal was worth it! It came with a small but generous portion of teriyaki buri and thick slices of sashimi. The maguro toro, tai, and negitoro sashimi were also delicious. And the piping hot clam soup was a pleasant surprise! All of this for only a thousand yen! #AkihabaraLunch #AsakusabashiLunch #AkihabaraGyokoKaikai #BuriSetMeal

I'm sorry for the consecutive posts. For lunch in Akihabara the other day, I had the Buri (yellowtail) set meal at Akihabara Gyoko. It included delicious Buri teriyaki and plenty of fatty Kan Buri sashimi that melts in your mouth! The sashimi also had tender salmon, sea bream, and chu-toro (medium fatty tuna), along with a generous serving of clam soup. All of this for only 1000 yen! So happy and satisfied with the delicious meal at Akihabara Gyoko! #AkihabaraLunchClub #AsakusabashiLunchClub #AkihabaraGyoko

There were about 5 or 6 people waiting outside, so I decided to wait in line as well. The restaurant is small, but many office workers nearby come here so the turnover is quick. Even though I was alone, I was seated at a table for 4 in the back. I placed my order while waiting in line, so my food was served quickly. They had about 15 different dishes, all with plenty of fresh seafood. The clam soup had a rich broth and was delicious.

#Akihabara #Kaikai I went there ( •̀ •́ゞ)ﾋﾞｼｯ!! 5 minutes walk from Akihabara Station🚶‍♀️ Seafood-focused izakaya #CostPerformanceStrongLunch 1st picture 15-16 kinds of sashimi for only 1,000 yen, it's amazing❣️And the freshness is good, so it's quite a deal. #SeafoodBowl Lunch set with new Pacific saury also comes with sashimi side dish, feeling like a great deal. Arrive at the restaurant around 11:30 on weekdays and 15 minutes later it's full. The service is fast and the turnover is quick, so even if you line up, you may not have to wait that long. I envy the nearby office workers. It's definitely something that can energize you from lunch onwards, isn't it? If you have the chance, try going at night too. *ﾟ #Akihabara Fish Market Kaikai #AkihabaraGourmet #AkihabaraLunch #AkihabaraIzakaya #SeafoodBowlLunch #SeafoodDishes #SeafoodIzakaya

Today's lunch was grilled and fried horse mackerel. If you arrive at the restaurant at 11:50, you might not make it in the first group and have to wait in line under the scorching sun. But as I have an umbrella, I'm safe. The grilled horse mackerel was surprisingly based on sesame, not miso, and it was delicious. I wish I could have enjoyed it with some sake. The minced tuna with green onions had a refreshing taste with wasabi on the side. The horse mackerel fry was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, perfectly cooked. Although it would have been even better with homemade sauce, I left the restaurant satisfied.

Delicious grilled fish lunch❣️ Today, I had the seasonal sanma (Pacific saury) at Kaikai in Akihabara❗️ The fish here is always fresh and tasty❗️ The sanma was delicious, and the salmon, sea bream, and negitoro sashimi that came with the set were also really good! I was also happy with the generous amount of clam soup that came with it. This satisfying lunch for 1000 yen was definitely worth it!
