I felt like eating tempura, so I searched and found a place to try. I arrived in the early afternoon and the restaurant was quite empty. I ordered the tempura set meal. The tempura was a deep golden color and fried quite crisply. It was more crispy than crunchy. It's a good choice for those who like crispy tempura. It's served with tempura dipping sauce. I thought it was a good value for Akihabara.

That crispy texture... However!! The tempura rice bowl here is delicious even when coated in sauce, and the tempura is crispy and tasty♫ It includes 2 shrimp tempura, fish, eggplant, green pepper (maybe shishito pepper?), and pumpkin, all for 900 yen, which is great value!! Miso Soup: It has a flavorful broth and is delicious!! "A comforting taste♫" Next time, I want to try the Tempura Set Meal (1250 yen). When I come back, I'll go for the Tempura Set Meal!!

I visited for lunch and ordered the special tempura rice bowl. It had hot tempura on top of warm rice, coated with a sweet and savory sauce that made it delicious. I enjoyed shrimp, pumpkin, eggplant, shishito pepper, and mackerel tempura, allowing me to savor a variety of ingredients in one meal.

I've been wanting to come and eat here for a long time but never seemed to find a time when it was not busy. Finally, today my son and I made it for lunch. When we entered the restaurant, there weren't many customers, but it quickly filled up. I had the special tempura bowl and my son had the overflowing tempura bowl. The amount of rice was just right and the shrimp was deliciously plump. My son is quite picky but he was smiling the whole time and very satisfied. Thank you very much. Since my workplace is nearby, I would like to visit often. Thank you for the meal.

I tried several times but the timing was always bad, either it was fully booked or closed. I finally managed to get in by going a bit early in the evening. This building has many izakaya-style restaurants, and it seemed like there were a lot of people at night. The tempura bowl costs 900 yen, which I think is cheap. The tempura was a light tan color, quite oily in the Edo style, but it didn't feel heavy at all. The miso soup that came with it had a rich broth, which contrasted nicely with the oiliness of the tempura and made it even more delicious.

Located near Akihabara Station, on the first floor of the Fujisoft building, is a tempura restaurant. The interior has 8 counter seats, 2 four-person tables, and limited space. When I arrived at 1:30, about half of the seats were already taken. If I had come earlier, it would have been more crowded. As a fan of shrimp, I ordered the shrimp tempura donburi, which comes with 3 shrimp sticking out, along with 3 vegetables (sweet potato, eggplant, green pepper), miso soup, and pickles. The tempura was fried in about five minutes, and I received the shrimp tempura donburi over the counter. I started by trying the shrimp, and the crispy batter was well-fried and crunchy. The shrimp inside was steamed perfectly, allowing me to enjoy its delicious flavor. The sauce was lightly drizzled, so you can adjust it to your liking. The sweet potato had a nice crispy texture, but the eggplant and green pepper had small portions of filling, which left me wanting more. The miso soup was also delicious, and aside from the small vegetable portions, it was a satisfying meal. There aren't many options for tempura in Akihabara, so I think this place is a good choice.

Today, I had lunch in Akihabara. I met up with a colleague at a building where I used to work about 10 years ago, but surprisingly, I had never been to this restaurant on the first floor before. We arrived at 11:43 with 3 people, and there were already 5 customers inside with 9 more coming in after us. We ordered the signature tempura rice bowl, which was served in about 6 minutes. The tempura included pumpkin, green pepper, eggplant, shiso leaf, and 2 shrimp, all beautifully arranged. The red miso soup that came with it complemented the tempura well. It was just the right amount for me, as I have a small appetite. They only accept cash for payment. By the time we left, there was already a line forming outside. It was a delicious meal!

Today, from morning, with the return of God Murakami in WBC, we secured a spot in the finals with a come-from-behind victory. Even when we were losing, I believed that it wouldn't end like this, and I haven't been this excited in a long time. So, I want to celebrate with everyone, but it's still daytime. When it's a joyous occasion, it has to be tempura donburi. That's why I came to eat tempura donburi in Akihabara. It's in a new building, but it seems like a well-established shop. The tempura donburi here is overflowing with shrimp tempura. The menu name is "Overflowing Shrimp Tempura Donburi," so there you go. Three shrimp, both vertically and horizontally. Shrimp must be prawns, and I just want to eat a lot of shrimp. On a day like this, the shrimp tempura donburi is a must-eat. I don't really understand what's going on, but it's a joyous occasion. Let's defeat the US and celebrate becoming world champions with shrimp tempura. The TV in the restaurant is also showing God Murakami. Some people might have been watching it here. It's a joyous occasion. Today's tempura donburi is delicious.

I arrived at around 12:30 and sat at the counter. Since other customers were already eating, my order was quickly prepared. I ordered the special tempura bowl (900 yen) with an egg topping (150 yen). The special tempura bowl came with 2 shrimp, a fish called "kiss", and 3 types of vegetables (bell pepper, eggplant, pumpkin today). It only took 5 minutes for my order to arrive. I had to leave quickly so I was grateful for the fast service. The presentation was great, the tempura batter was crispy, and the sauce was just right. This quality is not something you can find at chain stores. The shrimp was plump and the egg was runny. The vegetables were a bit small but I was very satisfied. I will definitely go back. Thank you for the meal.

I visited "Tempura Tenho" on the first floor of the Fuji Soft Building, a 2-3 minute walk from Akihabara Station, around 11 am on a certain day in February 2023. The small restaurant had only one other customer when I arrived. I sat at the counter and ordered the "Special Tempura Bowl" for ¥900. After about 10 minutes, my meal was served. The special tempura bowl consisted of 2 prawns, whiting fish, green pepper, eggplant, and pumpkin tempura. I started with the prawn tempura, which had a nice balance of sesame oil aroma and a pleasant texture. The tempura sauce was not too strong, but had a good blend of saltiness and sweetness. The tempura had a strong sesame fragrance but left a refreshing aftertaste, making it easy to eat. The whiting fish was also a good size and allowed me to enjoy the delicious white meat. The vegetable tempura of green pepper, eggplant, and pumpkin were easy to eat sizes and complemented the rice well alongside the prawn tempura. Personally, I was pleased to have green pepper tempura in my tempura bowl. The miso soup had a rich dashi flavor and was served with a good amount of seaweed and green onions. The combination of hot miso soup and tempura bowl was excellent. Eating the tempura with the yellow pickled radish also added to the joy of the meal. I felt a satisfying sense of contentment after finishing my meal. It was great to enjoy this taste for only ¥900. The restaurant quickly filled up with more customers as I ate, showing its popularity among the office building occupants. I look forward to coming back to "Tempura Tenho" next time to enjoy tempura with some drinks.

I had the special tendon for 900 yen, followed by the overflowing tendon for 1200 yen at the 3.47 Tempura restaurant located on the 1st floor of the Akihabara Fuji Soft Building. In conclusion, this experience has become a milestone in my tendon history, marking a new era. I usually eat tendon where the shrimp tempura is large enough to finish in two bites, with the second bite being the tail end. The tail end is a bit thinner and I feel a little reluctant to finish it, but I still eat it, savoring the crispy shrimp tempura. The first bite is crucial, as it sets the tone for the whole experience. However, at this restaurant, the tendon came with two large shrimp tempura, bigger than what I usually eat. This means I can enjoy the shrimp tempura six times (3 bites per shrimp). This changes the dynamic of how I enjoy my tendon, allowing me to savor the shrimp tempura multiple times in between other ingredients. The pumpkin, which used to be a sidekick, now becomes a main player. It's a luxurious experience, all for just 900 yen. I later tried the overflowing tendon with three shrimp tempura, but it didn't have the same impact as the two shrimp tempura version. This made me realize that I still have a lot to learn about enjoying three shrimp tempura in one dish. If you are someone who enjoys tendon like I used to, I recommend experiencing it at the restaurant rather than just reading this post.

The social situation is a bit delicate, but at least we are free to go out. I don't really feel like going far. There are only a few places I revisit, such as "Tempura Tempoyo," which I really like. However, I've only been getting takeout bento from there this past year, so it's time to dine in the restaurant. The closest tempura place from where I am is probably "Tempura Makotoya." There are plenty of tonkatsu restaurants around, but it seems like tempura is becoming more Westernized. I was surprised to hear that traditional Japanese sweets are facing a decline, as the world seems to be more Western-influenced. Personally, I appreciate tempura with a light coating as I am on a diet. In Akihabara, there is a new tempura restaurant in a high-tech looking building, but it doesn't give off a new vibe. I am happy to see that it's not crowded at 2 o'clock. I like sitting at the counter in front of the tempura fryer. I always order the same menu items, and at Tempoyo, I can't resist the "Overflowing Shrimp Tempura Donburi." The lunch menu includes special tempura donburi, premium tempura donburi, overflowing shrimp tempura donburi, tempura set meal, and premium tempura set meal. I decided on the overflowing shrimp tempura donburi and the special tempura donburi. The egg tempura was a nice addition. The shrimp tempura looked great with plenty of shrimp. The special tempura and overflowing tempura didn't seem that different, especially considering the current price of shrimp. I enjoyed biting into the shrimp. The tempura coating felt sturdier than before. The egg tempura made with raw egg was delicious, allowing me to savor the runny yolk. I almost forgot about the rice, which I prefer to be cooked perfectly. Unfortunately, it's often too soft. I took a few bites of the soup-soaked rice and left the rest, which may contradict my diet goals. I believe in finishing all the food to avoid food waste, even if it goes against my diet. Oh well, that's just how I am. Well, that's it. Thank you for the meal!

On this day, I went to Akihabara. I came to have lunch at Tenpura Tenpou, which I found out about from the reviews on MyRebi. I got off at JR Akihabara Station, went out of the central ticket gate to the central north exit, and walked along the JR viaduct on the left hand side. Passing through the passage between Akihabara Center Place Building and the viaduct in front of it, you will see Fujisoft Building in the back. The restaurant is located on the first floor of the building, towards the left side of the restaurant area. I entered the building at exactly 11 o'clock. The English pub HUB on the right side and the Akihabara Nikuzushi at the far left side will open at 11:30 and noon, respectively, so the shops are still closed and quiet. Now, when I approached Tenpou, even though it was supposed to open at 11 o'clock, it was still in preparation. I had no choice but to go to the FamilyMart in front of the shop and wait for the shop to open. After about 2 minutes, the blinds inside the glass that had been halfway down finally went up, and the lady came out from the store and changed the sign from "preparation" to "open for business". I entered the store as I had been waiting for this moment. Then, I was welcomed by the lady and the man in the kitchen with a "welcome", and I sat down in the middle of the counter with 8 seats in front of the kitchen. I ordered the Special Tendon for 900 yen (tax included). I had been debating whether to choose the Upper Tendon for 1,100 yen (tax included) before coming, but according to other reviews, the squid, which was the difference of 200 yen, was small and received negative feedback, so I decided not to go for the Upper Tendon. Also, although it was not mentioned on the menu, according to the reviews on MyRebi, there was a service for extra rice for the Tendon, so I asked the lady, "Can I have extra rice?" She replied, "Yes," so I asked for it. However, she hesitated for a moment when I asked, so maybe she didn't want to be known too much in advance. After waiting for about 10 minutes, the Special Tendon was brought to me with miso soup and pickles (pickled radish). The large portion of rice was completely covered with tempura toppings of 2 shrimp, small fish, eggplant, pumpkin, and green pepper, with a sweet sauce drizzled on top. The tempura was lightly fried to a crispy texture and hot, and tasted quite good. I enjoyed it until the end while adding extra sauce from the condiments on the table. The miso soup was a red miso with seaweed and chopped green onions, and it was on the salty side with a good dashi flavor, which suited my taste. If I get change back from a 1,000 yen bill, I would be satisfied. I finished eating in about 10 minutes and left the store, but no lunch customers visited while I was there. However, the phone rang shortly after opening, and the lady who answered it reported to the man in the kitchen that there were 13 reservations for the evening. Listening to the conversation between the lady and the caller, it seems that they are regular customers. The location of the building is not exactly ideal for passing by, and it may not be particularly convenient, but around noon, many people working in the building or nearby may visit, and in the evening, customers may gather to enjoy tempura and drinks.

Special Tendon for 900 yen. Tempura: 2 prawns, white fish, eggplant, green pepper, pumpkin. The tempura tastes delicious. It's impressive that it includes 2 prawns. It's a bit tough to compare with Tenya in terms of price, but I still think this place offers value. The interior of the restaurant has the scent of sesame oil. I wish the counter seats had a bit more space between them.

Despite being close to the station, this building-type store, Tenho, is located on the opposite side of the anime holy land and electric town, so you don't see many foreign tourists and it has a calm atmosphere unlike Akihabara. I visited Tenho and ordered the special tempura bowl for 900 yen, with a free extra serving of rice. The tempura, starting to fry only after the order was placed, had a crispy coating and a juicy inside, with perfect cooking. The dish included two shrimp tempura, as well as fish, eggplant, sweet potato, and green pepper tempura, all with a subtly sweet sauce that made the rice go down smoothly. I enjoyed the miso soup and pickles as a palate cleanser. After finishing the meal, I moved on to the next restaurant for more food.

The average rating is 3.0 points, with ratings given in increments of 0.5. The overall score is calculated by multiplying food/taste by 4, service by 2, atmosphere by 2, and cost performance by 2, then dividing the total by 10 (alcohol/drinks are not included). The review states "delicious" but does not provide any other information.

I visited Tempura Tenpou for a solo lunch on a regular day. It is located about a 2-minute walk from Akihabara Station. Tempura Tenpou has a calm atmosphere that is not typical of Akihabara, making it a relatively hidden gem for lunch in the area. I arrived around 11:15 and found a casual and cozy izakaya-style interior with seating for 17 at the counter and tables. There were 2 groups of 2 customers already seated. I chose a seat at the counter. The table was set with tempura dipping sauce, soy sauce, salt, chopsticks, toothpicks, paper towels, a pitcher of cold tea, and hand sanitizer. After being seated, I was served cold tea. The menu offers rice bowls and set meals, as well as a wide selection of a la carte items since it is a place where you can drink alcohol. For this visit, I ordered the Overflowing Ebi Tempura Donburi for 1,100 yen, an additional egg for 150 yen, and squid tempura for 350 yen, totaling 1,600 yen. In about 8 minutes, the tempura donburi, miso soup, and pickles arrived. The Overflowing Ebi Tempura Donburi included three large prawns, three types of vegetables (eggplant, pumpkin, bell pepper), as well as the added egg and squid toppings, creating a substantial and visually appealing dish. The tempura was crispy and the sauce was slightly sweet, though not overly generous. The squid topping was small in size and a bit pricey. However, considering the overall meal for 1,600 yen, I was very satisfied with the lunch. The service at Tempura Tenpou was also excellent. It's a great place to have lunch near Yodobashi. I recommend giving it a try.

I came for lunch. I ordered a tempura rice bowl and a set meal. It was more like a tempura rice bowl with tempura scraps, I should have paid a bit more for a proper tempura rice bowl! The tempura scraps bowl was not bad though (lol). I would prefer to enjoy more vegetables and flavors in my meal.
