The Chashu Set Meal (900 yen) at Morino Chaya caught my attention as I passed by during lunchtime. I had always seen a line forming outside the restaurant but never knew what kind of place it was, so I continued on my way. On this particular day, as I approached the restaurant during lunchtime, I noticed that customers were coming out and new ones were going in. I took a peek at the menu displayed outside and saw items like fried dishes, hamburg steak, and ginger pork. It was then that I realized it was a set meal restaurant, and that's when I spotted the Chashu Set Meal. I had been curious about it since last year and had been planning to try it someday, so stumbling upon it at this restaurant was a rare opportunity. Upon entering, I found that the restaurant was full, but luckily a seat opened up at the counter just as I arrived. The walls were covered with a vast number of menu items, which made it tempting to change my order, but I reminded myself of my initial choice. The Chashu Set Meal arrived shortly after I ordered. The Chashu had a glistening appearance, accompanied by a sunny-side-up egg and some cabbage on the side. Of course, there was also mustard provided. The rice portion was already quite generous, so I decided against getting a large serving. The Chashu slices were of decent thickness, coated in a sweet and savory sauce. The meat was tender and delicious, just as I had imagined. The meal was so satisfying that I couldn't help but devour it quickly. While hamburg steak and fried dishes are nice, the satisfaction of indulging in meat is incomparable. Before I knew it, I had finished every last bite. It had been a while since I had enjoyed a meaty meal. Despite the restaurant always being full, the attentive service of the female staff ensured a quick turnover of customers.

I arrived at the restaurant around 11:10 am on a weekday. The first floor was already full, so I was seated on the second floor where only one table for four was available. Shortly after, it also filled up and became full. It seemed like half of the customers were foreign tourists. I ordered the Char Siu set meal for 900 yen. The Char Siu was well cooked and tender, with a sweet and savory soy sauce flavor. It came with a side of rice, miso soup with fried tofu, a fried egg, and shredded cabbage. The seasoning was on the stronger side, making it taste even better when paired with rice, cabbage, or other items. The Char Siu alone was delicious, but combining it with rice, cabbage, and the egg yolk provided a variety of flavors. I found myself finishing the rice quickly, as it was so tasty. The Char Siu set meal was truly impressive. Thank you for the meal.

Lunch was enjoyed in Ueno. Soba or Western food: Decided on Morino Chaya. 12:15, 8 people waiting, 15 minutes until seated. Ordered: Ginger Pork and Chicken Fillet Fry for 850 yen. Taste: Overall tasty but the portion of the Ginger Pork was unusually large... it was super-sized. Morino Chaya tends to serve large portions. I doubted if I could finish it from the beginning to the end... I was unsure. The occasional Chicken Fillet Fry and cabbage provided a nice change in flavor. I managed to eat about 80% but left a little bit. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal.

Visited around 3:00 PM on Sunday. Waited for about 2 people and soon entered. Many people ordered the Char Siu set meal, but I chose the Meat and Vegetable Stir-Fry set meal for 850 yen because it lacked vegetables. No photos allowed inside the restaurant, so no pictures of the food. The Meat and Vegetable Stir-Fry and rice were both generous portions. It's a popular and satisfying set meal restaurant.

I went there before and had the thick-sliced chashu set meal with mustard, which was very delicious, so I wanted to introduce it to my family and came back again. It takes about 40 minutes to line up during lunch hours on weekends. My family ordered the chashu set meal, so I chose the yakiniku set meal. The yakiniku set meal was also very tasty, but the chashu set meal is really delicious, so next time I go, I plan to order the chashu set meal. It's a very good restaurant.

I love this restaurant! I always plan to order something other than the BBQ pork rice set, but when I sit down and place my order, I end up asking for the BBQ pork rice set with extra rice. It's just so delicious!!! The shiny sauce on the BBQ pork, topped with a fried egg on rice, is the ultimate happiness for me.

Just before 11 am on the weekend, there were 7 or 8 people waiting in line. The restaurant opened at 11 am and we were seated at a table with strangers 5 minutes later. The staff seemed efficient, checking with the kitchen before seating us. I ordered the popular Char Siu rice bowl for 900 yen. It was served in just 10 minutes. The portion of cabbage was a bit less than expected, but everything else met my expectations. The thick slices of Char Siu were slightly firm but delicious without any strong flavors. I found that mustard from the table condiments went better with it than mayonnaise. The rice was tasty and the addition of a fried egg was a nice touch. Even without getting the large portion, I left feeling satisfied. The staff was friendly and attentive. Towards the end of the meal, I started to get a bit tired of the Char Siu rice bowl. Next time, I think I'll try the Katsudon (large portion) for 900 yen or the Hamburger and Croquette set meal.

Ueno Station and Okachimachi are popular for their Mori no Chaya restaurant under the elevated tracks. I visited the restaurant at 13:30 on a weekday after a few years. The place was full, so I had to wait for 3 minutes before sitting at the counter. I ordered the Chashu (roast pork) set meal out of the 28 options available, priced at 900 yen. The table was equipped with various condiments like sauce, mayonnaise, shichimi (seven-spice blend), salt, soy sauce, disposable chopsticks, and toothpicks. It took about 10 minutes for the food to be served. The Chashu set meal came with a bowl of rice and miso soup. The main dish was thickly sliced Chashu with 6 pieces, a fried egg, and cabbage. The miso soup had fried tofu and seaweed as ingredients. I started by putting mayonnaise on the cabbage and dipping the Chashu in Japanese mustard. The sweet and spicy Chashu was tender and delicious! The rice disappeared quickly along with the Chashu. The fried egg was also tasty when eaten with the Chashu. The cabbage, soaked in the Chashu sauce, was also very flavorful. The generous portion of Chashu and rice was devoured in no time. It was a delicious meal, thank you! I will definitely come back again.

Today's lunch at Ueno, solo dining ❤️ #Char Siu Set Meal. I had some errands near Morinochaya, so I decided to have lunch at this place that caught my eye on Instagram. They open at 11:00, and I arrived a bit before 12:00, luckily there was no line at that time. Right after I entered, there were 2 groups waiting. Customers kept coming in one after another, and the restaurant was always full. I really had perfect timing ❤️ The interior was mostly filled with men. I had already decided on the menu from Instagram. I was torn between the Cheese Hamburg and the Char Siu, but I chose the Char Siu. The Char Siu tasted exactly as I had imagined, so delicious ❤️ It wasn't too sweet or too spicy, just the right balance of sweet and savory. It went well with mustard, but it was also delicious when dipped in the mayo and shichimi (seven-spice blend) on the table (,,•﹏•,,)❤️ The fried egg soaked in the Char Siu sauce was irresistible (*ˊᗜˋ*)♡ It was a filling meal for only 900 yen ❤️ Great value for money ✨ Highly recommended ❤️ #lunch #solodining #UenoLunch #UenoGourmet #TokyoGourmet #Teishokuya #GreatValue #Tokyo #Ueno #KeiseiUeno #Morinochaya #foodporn #instafood #foodgasm #foodie #foodstagram #eatstagram #Japan #Tokyo

Arrived 10 minutes before opening on Sunday. There was no line yet. I asked a regular customer who arrived later, and they said it's best to line up on the right side of the entrance. There were about 5 people when they opened. It seems like it's not too crowded today. When they opened, I was seated at the counter. The place quickly filled up from somewhere. I held back my desire to order and waited for the waitress to finish serving water. Once she finished, she took orders one by one. I was tempted by the delicious-looking ginger pork while waiting in line, but I stuck to my original plan and ordered the chashu rice bowl that I had been curious about. Many people were ordering the barbecue rice bowl, so it must be delicious too. The kitchen seemed like a battlefield with just two people working. Since they were preparing orders in order, there was some variation in the timing of serving the dishes. I was the first in line, so my order was served in about 7 minutes. The chashu was more generous than I expected. The richly flavored chashu was tender, and the rice disappeared quickly. It's especially delicious when eaten with the soft-boiled egg yolk. It's also amazing when dipped in the mustard provided. Thank you for the meal. It was delicious.

I entered the restaurant as soon as it opened at 11:00 am on a regular Wednesday, and it was immediately full. There is also a second floor. It seems to be a popular spot for people working in Ueno to have lunch. There are counter seats, so even if you are dining alone, you can feel at ease. I ordered the Char Siu set meal. It came with plenty of Char Siu! It looked delicious from the start! The meal also included rolled omelette, which was a perfect match with the rice when dipped in the yolk or mustard. It was delicious! It's no wonder it's so popular. Many people were enjoying the set meal with hamburger steak and something else. The hamburger steak also looked delicious, so I will try that next time. I am satisfied!

I had been curious about this place since I saw the photos of their affordable, voluminous, and delicious-looking dishes on reviews. I tried the Char Siu set meal, which came with about 8 thick and tender slices of Char Siu in a slightly sweet sauce. The sauce was a bit strong for my taste, but it went well with the rice. I also tried a bite of the ginger pork, which was spicy. Thank you for the meal.

It's a restaurant where you can order a set meal. I arrived a little after 12 and there were 7 people waiting. I got seated in about 5 minutes. Whenever I come to this place, I always end up ordering the fried horse mackerel. I had the fried horse mackerel and omelette (900 yen) and the fried horse mackerel set meal (800 yen). I wonder why they don't have shrimp fry set meal? I might try ordering the shrimp fry as a side dish next time with rice and miso soup.

I arrived a little before 12 o'clock on Saturday! When I entered, I was able to sit right away at the counter. It was perfect timing as it became full and there was a wait after me. I ordered the chashu egg! I really wanted to try it! While waiting and drinking beer, it arrived quickly! It was a generous portion, so I started with beer and chashu! It was amazing! Next, I had rice and chashu egg, which was also fantastic. I am very satisfied with the food. I will definitely go again.

There is a restaurant in the drinking district under the Ueno overpass where you can eat set meals. The clientele is mostly men, so as an older woman, I found it easy to dine alone. The flavors were slightly rich and the food was delicious, perfect for my taste buds. There were many other menu items that caught my eye, so I would like to visit again when I go to Ueno.

If you want to grab a quick meal in Ueno, this is the place to go! You can enjoy affordable and high-quality set meals here. This time, I had the chashu (roast pork) set meal, and it was delicious! I would love to come back and try other dishes. Mori no Chaya, 6-11-19 Ueno, Taito-ku, Tokyo.

At 12:30, I went to Ueno and had lunch at Mori no Chaya. The first floor was full, but there was one table available on the second floor, so I entered immediately. I ordered the usual hamburger set meal. It was a bit crowded, so it took about 15 minutes for the food to be served. As always, it was delicious with a generous amount of rice and hamburger. My stomach was full to the brim. Thank you for the meal!

I visited a shop during a walk around Ueno Station that caught my attention. When I arrived around 12 o'clock, there were several people lined up outside the shop. I waited for about 15 minutes and then entered. This time, I ordered the ginger pork set meal. It was so delicious! The meat was tender and juicy, and the extra large portion of rice was very satisfying! It was also nice to have a fried egg on top.

I went to my sister's house in Asakusa for some errands. From there, I walked for about 20-30 minutes to Ueno, Ameyoko area for lunch. I had a previous unsuccessful attempt due to a holiday, so I was determined to try again this time. I arrived around 11:40 AM and there was a line with a few people waiting. The surrounding restaurants were also busy with mostly business lunch customers. The turnover was very fast, which was a benefit for me as a solo diner. I was seated at the counter quickly and ordered the Char Siu Set Meal for 900 yen. The Char Siu was amazing, tender and flavorful, and the rice was perfect. The miso soup with tofu and green onions was a nice complement. The staff were all very friendly and provided excellent service. Overall, it was a pleasant experience with delicious food. I will definitely visit again.

A while ago, I was drawn to the display of a large portion Katsudon at the storefront and quickly entered the restaurant, eating it eagerly. Upon revisiting the reviews of my followers, I noticed the Chashu Teishoku looked delicious! So, I registered and headed to Ueno. I arrived at 11:03 am, just before the opening, with a line of 3 people. The restaurant opened, and I sat at the counter and ordered the Chashu Teishoku (900 yen). I debated about getting a large portion of rice, but decided against it as the regular portion seemed quite substantial according to everyone's reviews, and I wanted to watch my weight. Other customers were ordering Han-koro, which I assumed was a combination of hamburger and croquette. The customer next to me ordered the Ginger Pork Teishoku. The aroma was enticing. After a 10-minute wait, my meal arrived. The rice portion was good, quite generous. The miso soup was piping hot. And then, the Chashu arrived. It looked just as I imagined, and it tasted great. The pork was incredibly tender and paired well with the sweet sauce. Of course, it went perfectly with the rice. The meat was plentiful and satisfying. I added some mustard halfway through, which enhanced the flavor without being overwhelming. I tried dipping the shredded cabbage in mayonnaise and the meat sauce, creating a slight variation in taste that was delicious. Adding a fried egg had a similar effect. The balance of lean meat and fatty meat was just right, making it enjoyable without becoming monotonous. Using the soy sauce and sauce on the table was also a good option. It was really delicious and filled me up. I started thinking about what to order next time as I was already curious about the menu. That's the kind of restaurant it is. Thank you for the meal.

【Point】①A nostalgic and good old-fashioned teishoku restaurant near Ueno Station. ②The menu is mostly under 1,000 yen, all of which are appetizing teishoku dishes that are very attractive. ③The sound of the train is noisy, the atmosphere of the restaurant is not great, but it is always full of customers. 【Trigger/Purpose】I was looking for lunch before going to the museums in Ueno. I searched based on the number of reviews on Tabelog. There were many other restaurants I wanted to go to, but they were all too small to accommodate a stroller, so I ended up at this restaurant. 【Location】About a 10-minute walk from Ueno Station. It is a slightly crowded area near the guard. 【Atmosphere/Seating/Customer base/Wi-Fi/Toilet/Smoking/Baby stroller, etc.】The restaurant is two stories high, and I was seated on the second floor. If you have a stroller, you need to fold it in front of the restaurant and only go upstairs with the person. The atmosphere of the restaurant may not be great, but personally, I like it because the taste is good. It is kind and appreciated that the menu is displayed with photos on one wall. It is noisy every time a train passes by because there are trains running nearby. I thought that there might not be many young people because the atmosphere is not great, but there were also many young couples and female customers. 【Food】(Reason for ordering, taste, portion size, waiting time, orders of other people, etc.) - Yakiniku Teishoku (¥900): I chose the yakiniku teishoku that made me feel hungry. And considering the current situation, all the teishoku dishes are reasonably priced. The taste was rich and delicious as expected. The portion was generous, and I was full. 【Rating at the time of posting】 ★: 3.49 Reviews: 231 people
