Ratings and Comments
Exterior – 3/5
Nothing special here.
Interior – 3/5
There’s nothing particularly bad about the interior, and most of the seating consists of booths, with only a few counter stools available. I appreciate the abundance of booths since they create a more private atmosphere, which is ideal for conversations with friends. Plus, it helps prevent feeling cramped against other guests.
Menu/Price – 3.5/5
This restaurant offers a nice variety of drinks, skewers, and soups—there’s a little something for everyone, which I really appreciate. Also, everything is priced at 370 yen (~$2.40 USD), which is a steal for most items!
Drinks – 3.5/5
There’s a wide selection of drinks, but the standout factor here is the price. My go-to is the Mega Beer, which, as you can see in my photos, is truly massive. Fantastic value, which is what I love!
Food – 3/5
The food isn’t anything to rave about, but it’s enjoyable. Given the price, you really can’t complain. I’ve tried a few different skewers, the French fries, and edamame—everything was decent. When paired with drinks, it made for a pleasant meal over good conversation.
Staff – 3/5
I’ve been here twice, and both times, the staff provided exactly what was needed, but nothing beyond that. I wouldn’t describe them as particularly warm or attentive, but there was nothing negative about my interactions with them either—just neutral service.
Restroom – 3.5/5
The restroom was clean, and the hand sink is located outside the actual toilet rooms, which is convenient.Conclusion – 3.5/5
I don’t come here because I love the food or because of exceptional service—I come here because it’s the perfect spot to get really cheap, decent food and drinks, while having a conversation with friends. That combination alone will keep me coming back time and again.
