After exiting the ticket gate at Futamata-Gawara Station on the Keio Line, go straight ahead on the left-hand side of the road and you will see it on your right. It was past 1 pm, so the lunch peak time was over and the inside of the restaurant was almost empty. There are about 6 counter seats and 7 tables for 4 people each inside. Smoking is not allowed at the seats, but there is a smoking room inside. I sat at the counter and ordered. [Gyoza set meal including tax: 700 yen] [Negi liver including tax: 429 yen] [Premium beer including tax: 528 yen] It's lunchtime, but since it's after work, they allowed me to have a draft beer. I started with the Negi liver as a snack. The crunchy texture and the taste of the green onions mixed with the liver were great when eaten raw. It's a great gout combo! (I'm praising it) The gyoza set meal also arrived. The gyoza itself is already flavorful, so you don't really need soy sauce. What's even better is that it comes with a hot spring egg. I made it into a TKG (tamago kake gohan) and ate it with the gyoza. The gyoza is delicious, and while it's great on its own, there are soy sauce, vinegar, and chili oil on the table for customizing to your liking. Gyoza and beer are a perfect combination. Thank you for the meal.

In the world, it still maintains a position as a side dish for rice, but for me, it seems like it can only be an accompaniment to beer, hoppy, or Shaoxing wine (any alcohol will do). Personally, I tend to think of it more as an accompaniment to beer, hoppy, or Shaoxing wine (any alcohol will do). I'm actually a "gyoza set meal denier" (laughs).

After work, I met my wife at a movie in Tachikawa, and we met at Bunbai station. It was a somewhat rainy Saturday, and we arrived at the restaurant around 9 pm. The spacious restaurant had 4 groups of 8 customers in a natural SD state. However, it seemed to be a one-person operation on break, and the waiter seemed busy. We secured a 4-person seat with uncomfortable chairs not far from the entrance. As soon as we sat down, we were asked, "How many gyoza would you like?" It wasn't the most pleasant feeling, but since we were going to order anyway, we didn't mind. My wife ordered a draft beer, and I ordered white hoppy. While waiting for the gyoza to be cooked, we enjoyed the usual accompaniments, "Yuzu Cabbage" and "Special Appetizer Chinatake." Both are excellent in terms of taste and quantity. After a while, the gyoza was ready. I put the piping hot gyoza in my mouth without adding anything. The slightly salty filling and chewy whole wheat skin. I feel like the filling used to be juicier, but it still has a good amount of juice. It can still be delicious even when it cools down. My wife switched to sake, and I continued with hoppy refills from the pot. If I don't stop, it will reach the shochu critical point, but I wonder if it's adjusted to a slightly lower alcohol content? The first visit to this chain was at the now-closed Seiseki Sakuragaoka Meat Center store. It was before I moved to this area. I was shocked by the scalding meat juice and the continuous refills of hoppy from the pot (laughs). I used to visit the store in Bunbaihara and Hachioji, where the spacious interior made me feel at ease. Despite the uncomfortable chairs (laughs), thank you for the meal.

Day 12 of telecommuting. For lunch, I walked to this nearby restaurant. The first store was in Chofu, and it has been quite a while since they expanded to Minamisenju. I found out that they already have around 60 stores. The restaurant has catchy phrases like "Gyoza and beer are culture" and "Gyozas are our passion." When I arrived at noon, there were only 2 groups of customers, with one group waiting for takeout. The staff seemed to be handling both the kitchen and the dining area alone, which seemed tough even under the state of emergency. The lunch set only had "Gyoza Rice" for 700 yen. The interior had a nice atmosphere with concrete ceilings, wooden pillars and tables, and white walls with catchy phrases written all over. One of the phrases read, "We love gyoza and Minamisenju, that's our spirit." The menu also indicated that they serve lunch drinks, but no one was drinking at that time. One unique feature of this restaurant is that you can watch them make gyoza by hand through a glass window. Around 4-5 staff members were wearing white coats and working on making gyoza. The Gyoza Rice came with rice, soup, and a soft-boiled egg. The staff mentioned, "Our gyoza can be enjoyed as is, without any condiments," but they still provided soy sauce, chili oil, and vinegar on the table. The gyoza was juicy, as expected from the "Meat Juice Gyoza Research Institute," but the sear was light. I poured the soft-boiled egg over the rice and broke it up. The soup was a light Chinese-style soup. Although you can dip the gyoza in sauce for a different flavor, I enjoyed it without soy sauce this time. It's rare to find satisfying gyoza that doesn't need soy sauce. I would love to come back for some gyoza and drinks when things settle down. Thank you for the meal.

The gyoza here is consistently delicious and worth the 2500 yen per person. Both the pan-fried and boiled gyoza were tasty. The drink menu offers all-you-can-drink options, which was great for someone like me who enjoys a good drink. Other appetizers were also delicious. I tried the cod and salad after a long time, and they were quite satisfying. I'm thinking of coming back for lunch next time.

Gyoza and drinks were not enough, so I came here! I had lunch here last time and confirmed how delicious it was. I chose the all-you-can-drink course with gyoza and ordered both grilled and boiled ones. I like gyoza with thick and juicy skin. It was a very satisfying dining and drinking experience. I wish they would open a branch in Naha too.

Juicy Dumplings Lunch Set (700 yen including tax) includes 6 dumplings, onsen tamago (hot spring egg), soup, and rice (extra large portion available for 50 yen more). These dumplings are best enjoyed as they are, without the need for soy sauce or dipping sauce. They are delicious with their hot and juicy filling. It reminds me of the time when I could eat a bowl of rice with just one dumpling. While a highball is nice, rice is good too. However, I hope they can improve on the cost-performance ratio. A set of 6 dumplings should be priced in the 600 yen range. It would be great if they could be more competitive with other nearby restaurants.

I had a sudden craving for dumplings and stopped by for takeout. It was crowded and I had to wait for quite a while, but they let me sit down and even served me tea while I waited. The atmosphere inside was lively, with lots of groups drinking and having a good time. The dumplings were big, packed with ingredients, and delicious. I was satisfied with everything!

Cheap and delicious!

The meat dumplings are delicious but the soup is thin.

On Friday night, just after 10 PM, I managed to get a table. I ordered grilled dumplings, boiled dumplings, and cabbage with yuzu - all classic dishes. The moment when the juicy meat juices overflowed from both the grilled and boiled dumplings was a blissful and happy time.

The chewy dumpling skin stimulates the appetite. Dumplings go perfectly with beer or highball. Ordering cold tofu as a side dish, you can eat to your heart's content for 2,500 yen. Good value for money.

I had some gyoza and highballs at the second party. The extra-large highball was a good deal. The highball was poured into a stainless steel tumbler and stayed cold for a long time, which I really liked. ❤

Dumplings and stir-fried meat and bean sprouts were excellent. The meat dumplings were also delicious. While some dishes like yuzu cabbage may not be great, the overall cost performance is good and worth coming back for.

Delicious.

Visit date: September 15, 2018 (Saturday) 12:40-16:00 After drinking plenty of Premium Malt at "Suntory," we had a second party with four friends. We chose "Gyoza" as our friend's pick from the famous lunch drinking spots such as Chinese restaurant "Manryuki," Italian restaurant "Saizeriya," kushikatsu restaurant "Dengana," and seafood restaurant "Isomaru Suisan." So, we visited Dandadan Sakaba for the first time. When we entered the restaurant, there were only a few customers, possibly due to the rainy weather. We were seated at a table near the entrance and discussed what to drink. Eventually, we decided to go for the 2-hour all-you-can-drink option for 1,620 yen (including tax) since we were planning to drink a lot. I ordered the White Hoppy Set as I decided to avoid beer. I was served a glass with about one-third of shochu and hoppy. We toasted with it and then left the food selection to my friends. - Gyoza 460 yen (6 pieces x 4 servings) - Special appetizer Shina bamboo 380 yen - Quail with seasoned egg 380 yen - Piled-up cabbage 450 yen - Century egg tofu 480 yen - Salted fish roe with buttered potatoes 460 yen - Crispy oil-drenched chicken 690 yen All the dishes were perfect as accompaniments to hoppy. Especially the famous gyoza, as warned in the restaurant with "be careful of the meat juice," was full of meat juice. I stuffed one piece directly into my mouth and enjoyed it while savoring the flavor, but my friend decided to take a bite and was surprised when the meat juice squirted out. The hoppy system was trendy, with the stop system. The staff brought a kettle of shochu and poured it into the glass until they said "stop." I poured about 7 glasses, enjoying a stronger hoppy. In the end, I must have had about 7-8 glasses of hoppy in total. We had a great time, continued ordering drinks at an additional cost even after the all-you-can-drink ended, and before we knew it, more than 3 hours had passed since we toasted. In my opinion, both the alcohol and food prices at this restaurant are on the higher side. If the prices were just 50 yen cheaper, I would want to visit many times, but leaving that aside, when drinking all-you-can-drink with a few people, you can enjoy a variety of drinks and dishes, making it a great deal. Despite feeling like we had eaten and drunk a lot, the bill was surprisingly around 3,000 yen per person. The staff's smiles and service were pleasant, and I would love to visit again if I have the chance. Thank you for the meal! (Approximately 3,000 yen per person)

An elderly man came alone for lunch on a weekday. The menu for the day seemed to be only Gyoza Rice for 680 yen, but since he came to eat gyoza, he naturally ordered that. This place seems to be popular as a gyoza bar at night. During this time, customers (including myself) come in one by one to eat the gyoza lunch set, while in the back, many employees are busy making gyoza for the night, it seems. After ordering, in about 3-4 minutes, I was served 6 pieces of gyoza, rice, soup, and a tray with a hot spring egg on top. The gyoza was quite juicy and delicious, emphasizing the meat juices. At first, I was recommended by the staff to eat it as is without any toppings, so I ate it like that and enjoyed it with the rice. I was a bit puzzled about how to eat the hot spring egg, but in the end, I tried putting it on the rice, crushing it, mixing it with the gyoza, but it didn't quite work. Eventually, I found it better to dip the gyoza in sauce, eat it, and then enjoy the rice with the yolk mixed in. I finished the meal shortly after. I wish I had a beer. Thank you for the meal.

I got off at Bunbukuwara Station on the Keio Line and Nanbu Line and found a gyoza izakaya nearby after coming back from Mt. Takao. I ordered the "Hoppy Black Set" and also ordered 2 pieces of "Juicy Pan-Fried Gyoza." The gyoza takes some time to cook, so they ask for the quantity when you order, be careful not to get flustered! Other dishes that came out quickly were "Cold Tofu," "Squid Shioyaki," "Water Gyoza," and "Slightly Spicy Meat Miso Bean Sprouts." The Juicy Pan-Fried Gyoza is packed with juice, so be careful when eating! You can probably eat about 2 pieces easily, but it's quite filling. The food is overall delicious, but the portions are not that large (except for the gyoza). It's convenient for a light meal while drinking rather than for a heavy drinking session!
