The main dish seems to be oysters, which is normal. The cheap oysters were not very good! It made me a little worried about the taste... but it was okay (laughs). The most delicious dish was the macaroni salad! I thought it was a lot, but ended up finishing it all. The all-you-can-drink option was great, and I ended up getting full on alcohol.

It was disappointing to be told that last order was already approaching only 1.5 hours after entering the restaurant at 5:00 PM. It wasn't a course meal or all-you-can-drink, but I couldn't enjoy my meal slowly and ended up not being able to finish the drinks I ordered. Maybe they mentioned the time limit when I made the reservation... The oysters (raw and steamed) were delicious. The sashimi was okay, but the salad had too much dressing and the flavor was too strong, so I couldn't taste the vegetables or salmon.

Before 5 pm on Sunday. No waiting. Got in smoothly. Is the mention of Hokkaido on the menu intentional? lol Fresh oysters from Lake Saroma in Hokkaido for ¥218 each. The size is decent. It's better to eat as much as you want here than going for all-you-can-eat. Beer pitchers are also recommended.

I visited Akabane where I used to live 10 years ago. Many shops had changed, but among them, the "Yamazakiya," "Zakiya," and "Zakiyama" series stood out for their low prices and high-quality oysters and shrimp. The variety of cooking methods cater to those who may not like oysters or seafood. Today, I ordered fresh oysters, a huge shrimp fry, chicken tataki, fried oysters, and a shrimp and avocado pizza. Everything was delicious and satisfying. If I still lived here, I would definitely bring my friends. We had a few drinks and the bill came to just over 6000 yen for the two of us.

I casually stopped by a stylish izakaya and ordered a set of three different types of oysters and a bucket of assorted fresh shrimp. The freshness of the seafood was great and we enjoyed drinking and eating for less than 20,000 yen. The staff's customer service was also good. It was a great experience at this restaurant that I randomly walked into. ☺️

After a long time, I had a meal in Akabane. Today, I went to have dinner with two work colleagues, flowing from Omiya to Akabane. I really like the atmosphere of this 1st street after coming out of the east exit. My companions mentioned that there is a certain shop here, so we decided to drink there. The Hokkaido raw oysters for 199 yen, let's see how they are. Appetizer, beer, white beer that goes well with oysters, raw oysters, sparkling wine, bonito, assorted sashimi, white wine, french fries, chicken tartare, squid with butter, baguette beer, sparkling wine, white wine, and various other drinks. We drank quite a lot. The oysters are quite large and delicious for this time of year. The appetizer tsukudani is surprisingly good with a refined dashi flavor. The dishes are mainly fish-based, but they are all quite delicious, and there is a variety of menu items that can be ordered to go with various drinks. I like this restaurant, I will visit again when I come to Akabane. Thank you for the meal☆

Today I visited Akabane to try out Zakiya's oysters, which I heard are delicious and reasonably priced. The main store was full, so I went to their annex where there was one seat available. The place was almost full, showing how popular it is. I started with a Soraichi beer. The oysters were priced at 199 yen + tax each, with various types available. Some of the side dishes included liver and angel prawns. It was nice to have a warm soup as an appetizer too! Thank you for the meal!

Akabane no Zakiya Hana no Sato @ Akabane (@akabane_no_zakiya) Ordered items: "Shrimp Bucket Assortment", "Fresh Oyster Tasting", "Grilled Oysters with Shrimp Miso", "Chicken Breast Tataki Skewers", "Salmon Carpaccio", "Camembert Cheese Fries", "Yuzu Honey Sour", etc. I was looking for a restaurant where I could enjoy shrimp dishes and stumbled upon this place! My friend who visited with me loves oysters, so we were both thrilled with this restaurant. There are plenty of shrimp and oyster dishes to choose from, ranging from classic to unique options. Of course, there are also regular izakaya menu items, so if you get tired of seafood, you can enjoy fried foods as well. The "Shrimp Bucket Assortment" included four types of shrimp: Amaebi, Akiami Ebi, Car Ebi, and Botan Ebi, each with 2 pieces in a bucket. Every shrimp was large, fresh, and delicious. My favorite was the Amaebi, with its soft and fluffy texture. The Car Ebi stood out for its incredible springiness. The "Fresh Oyster Tasting" featured oysters of different sizes, with the largest one being twice the size of a regular oyster. They were all juicy and had a refreshing aftertaste. Although I forgot the specific types, they were all delicious, with the largest one being my favorite. The "Grilled Oysters with Shrimp Miso" was a delightful combination of shrimp and oysters, enhancing the umami flavor of the oysters. It was a taste I truly enjoyed. The restaurant seemed to have recently been renovated, and the interior was very clean. It was surprisingly calm for a restaurant in Akabane's drinking district, making it a great choice for a girls' night out or a date. They seemed to have spaced out the tables for COVID-19 safety measures. The atmosphere was very pleasant, so I highly recommend it! Thank you for the delicious meal.

I wanted to eat fresh and safe oysters in Akabane, so I visited this restaurant. There was a pile of shells in front of the store! The oysters were reasonably priced and very fresh and juicy! ❤️ I usually find it hard to eat raw oysters because it can be scary, but here I could eat them without worry. The fried oysters were crispy and juicy too. They also recommend shrimp dishes, and I tried the garlic shrimp with lots of garlic chips on top. It was a taste that went well with alcohol. If you feel like eating raw oysters in Akabane, definitely go here! 🍴 Thank you for the delicious meal!

Colleague drinking party at a company. The place was in Akabane, and there was a request for seafood, so I did some research and made a reservation at this restaurant. Exit the north ticket gate at Akabane Station and head to the east exit. From there, go left and enter OK Yokocho. The entrance is about halfway down the alley, go up the stairs to the second floor where the restaurant is located. The restaurant is of moderate size. There are counter seats and table seats. We were seated at a table with 3 people. First, we toasted with draft beer. Then, we ordered some side dishes. The menu had a lot of oyster dishes. Grilled oysters, raw oysters, steamed oysters, oyster fry, and various other oyster dishes were lined up. We started with oyster fry, then ordered grilled oysters. Grilled oysters come in their shells and you can choose from a variety of sauces. This time, I chose the uni sauce. The grilled oysters are juicy with a rare cooking style. The aroma of the sea is strong. The addition of uni flavor makes it delicious. The oyster fry is also juicy and crispy. It goes without saying that it goes well with tartar sauce. We switched to white wine around this time. The decanter has a considerable amount. I tried salmon salted for the first time. It retains the flavor of salmon and is a rare delicacy that goes well with sake. The oyster gratin has a nice combination of cream and oyster flavor. It's also great when eaten on a baguette. It goes well with white wine. The food is good, the variety of alcohol menu is rich, and the cost performance is good. It seems like a versatile restaurant that is suitable for both casual drinking alone and drinking parties.

If you want to eat delicious oysters at a reasonable price, I have good news for you. Go to Zakiya in Akabane. Eat as much as you want, whether raw, grilled, or fried. Oysters are cheap in Akabane! It's an amazing town. Thank you for the meal!

Visited Akabane on December 22, 2018 (Saturday) - 431st visit. It is well known among those wandering around Akabane that there is a narrow alley called OK Yokocho just one street further from Akabane Ichiban-gai, but the reason behind the name "OK Yokocho" is unknown. I used this place as the second stop for a drinking night with friends in Akabane. The restaurant was quite crowded, probably due to the year-end season, but we were lucky to find two seats available near the entrance and were seated without much waiting. The staff here are all young, giving off a vibe of a gathering of university students. We ordered the following dishes and drinks for two people (prices excluding tax): - Appetizer (Tsukune soup style - 300 yen) - Fresh oysters (199 yen each x 4 - 796 yen) - Thick fried tofu with ponzu sauce (450 yen) - Corn tempura (500 yen) - Homemade cheese (450 yen) Drinks: - Draft Hoppy x 4 (480 yen each x 4 - 1920 yen) Across the street is the main branch of Akabane's Zakoya, which has a separate section called Hanare. It is located next to Bar Bandaberg, which is an excellent bar in Akabane. Upon being seated, we noticed the types of oysters being used that day written on a blackboard, with oysters from Aioi, Hyogo Prefecture being featured on that day. It seems they focus on oysters from a specific region rather than offering a variety from different places. Also, they have draft Hoppy available, which seems to be unique to this place in Akabane. This was news to us. With draft Hoppy available, we both decided to have that for our drinks. The draft Hoppy served was chilled, even the glass, making it a perfect "three cold" experience. The appetizer was a surprise - Tsukune soup style. The Tsukune had a taste that seemed different from just chicken, almost like duck (maybe a mix of duck?). The hot soup was perfect for our cold bodies. The oil floating on top also had a natural feel to it, not just regular chicken fat. Next, we tried the fresh oysters (in shells), which were small but thick and delicious, our first of the season. We then ordered the thick fried tofu with ponzu sauce and corn tempura, both of which had safe and enjoyable flavors. The corn tempura, in particular, had a rich taste due to the use of corn as an ingredient. As we moved on to our second round of draft Hoppy, we decided to order the homemade cheese. This cheese was a type of cottage cheese with a significant amount of fat removed and mixed with honey, giving it a noticeable sweetness. While this may suit some people's preferences, we personally preferred the other cheese option, cream cheese with smoked radish, which we found more to our liking. The smoked radish, a specialty of Akita, is pickled radish that has been smoked, and its fermented nature pairs well with both cheese and pickles. After finishing our second round of draft Hoppy, we decided to head to Sanju Shokudo for our third stop.

I learned 1-3 dishes from a coworker who loves drinking and often visited Akabane. We always end up at Hanare, a separate establishment from the crowded Zakiya. The meatball soup served as the appetizer at Hanare was perfect for us, with its peppery flavor. I highly recommend the oysters, which are priced affordably compared to an oyster bar. You can choose between raw or grilled oysters with different flavors, and enjoy them with a lemon sour. The corn tempura is also delicious when seasoned with salt. Even if we only stay for 30 minutes, they always have a table available for another hour. I definitely want to go back!

Oysters were delicious whether raw, grilled, in oyster fry, or oyster rice. I ordered white wine, expecting it to be chilled in a wine cooler, but it was served at room temperature. I wish there had been an explanation beforehand.

There is a sign that gives the impression of cheap oysters, but there is only one oyster on the menu that is priced below 600 yen. If you purely want to eat oysters cheaply, the best option is to go to a stall run by Chinese people in Ameyoko, Ueno. Also, there is an oyster bar near Monzen-Nakacho Station where oysters are around 300 yen each. I think a set of 3 different oysters for comparison was around 1600 yen. Payment can be made with Suica.

You can enjoy oysters and shrimp at a reasonable price. The garlic shrimp was delicious. The pork meatballs were quite flavorful, but too salty.

I love raw oysters so I should have ordered more of those... The garlic shrimp and shrimp mayo were delicious, but I got a bit tired of them. The sake was average, with mostly no wine available. The food was okay, the sake was okay, the staff were young and energetic, creating a good atmosphere. The prices seemed a bit high.

It was a restaurant that oyster lovers would absolutely adore. It was fully booked when we went, so I'm glad we made a reservation. The menu is very extensive and appealing. They had something like an aioli dish that was delicious. I would love to visit again after the state of emergency is lifted.

A few years ago when I visited, I had a delicious and enjoyable experience. However, when I visited again after a long time, there were no chopsticks, and the oyster shells from the previous customers were left on the table. The soup also seemed too salty. It was disappointing. But, the oysters were still delicious.

I think this oyster restaurant in Tokyo offers the best value for money. The seating is a bit more spacious than the main store across the street, making it a comfortable place to dine. It's recommended for when you want to fill up on oysters.
