Neo izakaya chain restaurant. They have nostalgic menu items like Napolitan, Chinese soba, and fried rice. The drink menu is also extensive and fun. They open from lunchtime, so it's perfect for day drinking on days off. The cost performance is also great! Thank you for the meal.

A gathering of friends from the same generation! Today, we tried ordering a variety of things we don't usually order. There were non-alcoholic drinkers, guys who love sweet things, and a fun group of friends. This place will definitely become a favorite hangout spot like in the old days. We ordered a lot of food like napoletana pasta, pickled cucumbers, corn tempura, fried potatoes, thick fried tofu, and mapo tofu. And for drinks, we had a liter of iced tea, white wine, sparkling wine, and apple sours. The apple sours were interesting, and we also tried the red ginger sours which had a lot of red ginger in it. Oh, we also ordered some yakisoba! We made yakisoba topped with lots of red ginger, and it was salty and delicious. For dessert, we had coffee jelly with plenty of whipped cream. The guys who love sweets were all smiles. We never run out of things to talk about whenever we meet up! Childhood friends will always be close because it's a place where you can be yourself. I love going back to those days with everyone.

This is a casual and welcoming restaurant with a nice atmosphere. They have trendy drinks like photogenic sours and creamy tiramisu that young people would enjoy, as well as skewered chicken and simmered offal that pair well with beer. They have a counter for solo drinking and also offer set meals, making it a great place for a quick drink alone or to stop by for a non-alcoholic drink after work. ☺️✨

An acquaintance of mine fractured her left leg and was forced into a wheelchair. She used to be very active, going out for drinks and meals with many friends. However, after the accident, she couldn't go anywhere because she couldn't use public transportation with a wheelchair. As a result, friends started visiting her in her town one after another. She is a very bright and popular person, so it was natural for people to gather around her. Recently, we also visited her town to pay our respects. The restaurant we went to is called "Tenku Dai Hall" in front of the Gakugeidaigaku Station, operated by the Tenarai-do chain. It is a large restaurant where you can dine or use it as an izakaya, with wide aisles that can easily accommodate wheelchairs. We ordered the most cost-effective "kettle" Hoppy drink, where you can adjust the alcohol content yourself. She happily talked about the people who had visited her recently, mentioning the names of each person. The restaurant was wheelchair accessible, and we had previously visited with a few people. We enjoyed dishes such as seaweed-wrapped torotaku tower, fried corn, fried eggplant with ginger, cheese spring rolls, anchovy mayo potato fries, hearty grilled chicken thighs with rock salt, thick fried tofu, grilled dumplings, edamame, stick chikuwa tempura, gizzard tempura, green pepper and soft egg stir-fry, rolling shrimp tempura with tartar sauce, rolling shrimp tempura, sauce yakisoba, omelette rice, and hearty char siu fried rice with extra char siu. The food, known for its quality, was delicious overall. The only downside was that the "hearty grilled chicken thighs with rock salt" wasn't as hearty as expected, and the extra char siu in the fried rice was a bit lacking. The total bill for 6 people on that day was 20,800 yen. Thanks to her leg injury, the sales of wheelchair-accessible dining establishments around Gakugeidaigaku Station have been booming. The staff may even be saying, "It seems like we've been busier lately." As we left the restaurant and headed towards the station with her wheelchair, I pushed it for the first time in my life. I know that someday, someone will push me in a wheelchair too. We made a promise to meet again next month at Gakugeidaigaku Station for drinks. The area around Gakugeidaigaku Station will be safe until she gets out of the wheelchair.

We couldn't move for the monthly gathering on the 1st, so everyone came to Gakudai. I'm grateful. The menu has changed slightly since last time, and P-chan's favorite fried egg is gone... that was really good, so disappointing... Cheers with everyone♪ The fun time begins. Today, in addition to the usual members, my classmate also joined. It's the usual routine, but the alcohol flows freely with this many people, so we can order a lot. The dishes we ordered this time: Seaweed-wrapped torotaku tower x2, Fried corn x2, Fried eggplant with ginger x2, Cheese spring rolls x2, Anchovy mayo potato fries x2, Hearty! Grilled chicken thigh with rock salt x2, Thick fried tofu x2, Grilled dumplings (12 pieces), Edamame x2, Stick chikuwa tempura x1, Gizzard tempura x2, Soft scrambled eggs with green peppers x1, Rolling shrimp tempura with tartar sauce skewers x1, Rolling shrimp tempura skewers x1, Sauce yakisoba x1, Omelette rice x1, Solid chashu fried rice with extra chashu x1. It was all delicious and fun. P-chan ordered the Rolling shrimp tempura with tartar sauce skewers and absolutely wanted to eat them! Lein-chan and I ordered the Omelette rice and it was like a children's lunch with the flag on top. It was all enjoyable and happy. P-chan pushed the wheelchair for the first time today and did it well. Thank you! Fun!! Fun!! Fun!! Happy time flew by in just 2 and a half hours. It's too early! Looking forward to the next one!! Next time, I'll be using crutches instead of a wheelchair, so I can go anywhere!

This place used to be a Japanese restaurant called Tengu, but it underwent a change in concept and now operates as a hybrid restaurant combining Tengu Oohall and Isokichi Shokudo. Similar to Matsuya Food, this chain seems to be focusing on this hybrid format. Tengu offers a mix of traditional Tengu menu items along with new additions, while Isokichi Shokudo focuses on grilled fish and eel dishes. For lunch, I tried the daily special set which consisted of fried chicken and another dish, with the special being one night-dried mackerel on that day. The meal also included extras like tofu, okra salad, and pickles, making it quite a luxurious deal for 880 yen. With the option to get extra rice for free, the value for money is quite good. I would like to try other items on the menu as well, but there are so many choices that it might be a challenge to try them all.

I visited the restaurant at 1 pm on a regular weekday. The place was not too crowded, so I was able to get a spacious seat. I was debating on what to order, but I really wanted to try the grilled fish, so I chose the mackerel with overnight drying, with extra rice. When the dish arrived, I thought the extra rice portion was a bit small, so I asked the waiter. They took it back to measure again and brought it back with a slightly larger portion. The set meal had a good variety of dishes and the fish was quite large. I later found out that I could make a soup with the remaining fish bones and they would provide a small portion of rice for free. The fish was delicious, although a bit difficult to eat due to the bones. The set meal was quite filling, so I didn't end up with leftover rice. The soup with rice and toppings was also very tasty. I used to have lunch at this place for under 1000 yen, but they raised the prices after the renovation. However, for 1089 yen, this meal was worth it. I hope they don't try to cut corners on portion sizes in the future. I'm curious to try their new menu items like ramen, fried rice, or Napolitan pasta.

I went for lunch with my golf buddy, Shizu-chan!! The thick fried tofu was piping hot and delicious, and surprisingly, the okra curry fry was good too. The chorizo and potatoes were also tasty, especially the thin crispy potatoes that were so addictive. We ordered the fatty tuna, but were surprised to find only one piece of seaweed. We had to split it in half to share. The highball at the restaurant was a good deal and Shizu-chan, who loves to drink, ended up ordering another one. We got all excited talking about golf, saying "I can't wait to go golfing again!"

I visited the restaurant around 1 pm on a weekday, well past the lunch rush. I was seated at a very small table in the corner, barely enough space for one person. It was clear that the restaurant was not customer-oriented. They had recently renovated and introduced a new menu item, ginger pork set meal, which I decided to try. When the dish arrived, I was surprised to see raw ginger on top of the pork. It was the first time I had seen something like that. I started with the miso soup and cabbage, then moved on to the ginger pork. However, I couldn't taste any ginger flavor at all. It just tasted like regular pork stir-fried in salt sauce. I had to add extra ginger on top of the pork to actually taste the ginger. It was not what I expected. I think they might be using the same pork for other dishes as well. It wasn't bad, but it was a bit disappointing. On the bright side, the portion size was good, so I didn't end up with leftover rice. I didn't leave feeling overly full, but I'm not sure if I would risk visiting again. The thought of getting less food for a higher price and being seated at a small table in the corner is not appealing.

In the past few months, a small izakaya boom has been happening around Gakugeidaigaku Station, attracting a large number of food reviewers on Tabelog. Feeling a bit late to the trend, I decided to join in and headed to Gakugeidaigaku. We started with a toast with the recommended Beer Brown for 385 yen, which was indeed a delicious beer. The dishes we ordered were: - Ham and Eggs for 429 yen - Young Corn Salt-fried for 319 yen - Char Siu Fried Rice for 869 yen with extra char siu for 440 yen - Tonpei Salad for 539 yen - Spicy Sichuan-style Mapo Tofu for 429 yen - Okra Curry-fried for 319 yen (no photo) - Grilled Chicken Thigh for 396 yen - Anchovy Potato for 385 yen (no photo) - Crispy Green Pepper for 319 yen - Burdock Tempura for 429 yen - Cream Cheese Wasabi for 319 yen For drinks, we chose some interesting options: - Hoppy Set for 462 yen with a large pitcher for 825 yen x2, providing about 5 cups each - 1 Liter of Highball for 979 yen, equivalent to about 5 cups in a giant measuring cylinder - Tower Lemon Sour for 429 yen, served with a frozen lemon slice, which is a unique touch. The presentation is quite impressive.

The restaurant Tengu has recently been renovated and reopened as Tengu Dai Hall. One of the four members of the Billiards Club has injured their leg and is now in a wheelchair. The restaurant is on the second floor, but there is an elevator and the interior is flat with wide aisles, so it should be fine. Upon arriving at the entrance, there were cones blocking the wheelchair's path, but they were able to navigate through. The table height was suitable for the wheelchair, and the group was able to order using a tablet provided by the restaurant. They enjoyed various dishes and drinks, including the original beer, ham and eggs, corn, and fried rice. The group also ordered a tower of lemon sour and a liter of oolong highball to share. Overall, they had a good experience and ended the meal with tiramisu and coffee jelly. The restaurant is wheelchair-accessible, with handrails in the restroom and adjustable seating at the counter. The spacing between the counter seats is also wide, and children are welcome at the restaurant. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience.

Today was a billiards club drinking party! Originally, we had plans at a different location, but they came to me at the last minute because of my injury. I'm so happy!! Since I'm in a wheelchair, my options for restaurants are limited. We checked if we could enter the restaurant for lunch. The poles on the way to the elevator were a bit of a hindrance, and since my right foot is still injured, even a small step of 2 levels can be tough if both feet are not working. The restroom is also narrow with steps, so even with assistance, it might be difficult. So, I decided not to go in and not to drink any beverages. We ordered using a QR code, and my friend brought a tablet for ordering. They also had WiFi, which was helpful. We started with drinks: Beer Brown - highly recommended, Young Corn Salt Fry - salty but delicious, Char Siu Fried Rice with extra meat - surprisingly tasty, Tonpeiyaki Salad - cabbage and egg wrapped tonpeiyaki salad, Burdock Tempura - crispy burdock, Fried Eggs - you can order up to 4 eggs for the same price, Mapo Tofu - a bit too spicy for me, Okra Curry Fry - okra fried with curry powder, Yakitori - grilled chicken skewers with a strong charred flavor, Anchovy Potato - potato with anchovy sauce, Flat Green Pepper Cheese - flat cheese with a crispy texture, Cream Cheese Wasabi, Coffee Royale - coffee jelly with strong bitterness, Tower Lemon Sour - sweet lemon sour in a tower glass. The atmosphere was spacious and relaxing, with no cover charge and a fun menu. Even though some items overlapped with the previous menu, the increased variety of food was welcomed. The conversation with my friends was enjoyable, and the 2.5 hours flew by. I hope Men-chan, who lives the farthest, is doing okay. It's good that the workplace is along the Toyoko Line now! It's convenient for commuting. It cost around 12,000 yen for 4 people, which is about 3,000 yen per person, and it was worth it. They might come to Gakugei again next month! I'm looking forward to it. I'm grateful to my friends. Thank you! (´▽｀)

I used to visit Tengu often for the Gakudai lunch before their renovation. After the renovation and change in name, it seems like all the previous reviews of the restaurant disappeared. The interior has changed slightly but remains mostly the same. The staff, including the part-timers, are still the same. Some menu items have changed while others remain the same. There are some noticeable new additions. However, the prices have gone up. The portion sizes have decreased or the prices have increased. The weekly lunch specials are no longer available. The taste remains unchanged from before. I was surprised to see items like fried rice and ramen on the menu. While it's nice that you can add various side dishes, the prices seem a bit high. Rice refills are now charged extra, but ordering a large or extra-large portion initially is free. I tried the extra-large portion this time, and it was quite filling. However, if you order a regular portion and then ask for a refill, it's less than the extra-large portion. I will continue to visit for the convenient Gakudai lunch, but I don't think I will be going more often after the renovation. The main reason is the increase in prices, especially considering the decrease in portion sizes. The small size of the dice steak this time was particularly notable.

I am currently in the midst of a bone fracture and living in a wheelchair. My days consist of the same routine of commuting between home and work. Yesterday, I heard about a new pasta restaurant called Tengu, which I love. I found myself wishing to bask in the sunlight and go out for lunch. I murmured these thoughts out loud, and someone suggested, "Want to go?" With a smile, I agreed. I am skilled at maneuvering the wheelchair myself, but sometimes it's faster to have someone push me. As we headed towards the restaurant, the bustling shopping street was crowded, but manageable for a wheelchair. However, when we reached the restaurant, there was a small step of about 5 centimeters that I couldn't overcome on my own. With assistance, I was able to easily get inside where the floor was spacious and accommodating. We settled at a table, and I ordered from the lunch menu. We decided to share the Napoletana, a standard pasta dish, and I asked for it without powdered cheese as my companion doesn't like it. I also ordered the Tempura Soba, which is always a favorite of mine. The tempura was crispy and delicious, with a variety of ingredients. Lastly, we tried the Seasonal Bento, which consisted of mackerel, tempura, small dishes, rice, and miso soup. The food was good, but nothing out of the ordinary. The restaurant is newly opened, and they are offering gyoza for 100 yen until they sell 100 servings from 3 pm to 9 pm. They also have lemon sour and highball for 90 yen. The lunch service was quick, which was convenient for us. I noticed some interesting dessert and cocktail options on the menu, so I decided to make a reservation for dinner next week. Although the closing time is a bit early, I am looking forward to returning and possibly enjoying some drinks with friends.
