Great sake bar with delicious yakitori!

I visited around 7pm on a weekday in July. Both the owner and the floor staff were very courteous, so I could enjoy my meal comfortably. I was really craving yakitori, and that's why I went in. All the yakitori was delicious, and the side dishes like the 3-kind delicacy platter, pickles, and fried chicken neck were all very satisfying. What stood out most was the draft beer! Of all the places I've eaten out recently, it was the most beautifully poured. The foam was fine and creamy like draft beer at a bar, and both the look and the mouthfeel were great. Having two kinds of draft is a quietly nice touch too. The way the woman on the floor served the glass with the logo facing me was wonderful. I was too full this time, but there were still several things I was curious about, like motsunabe and soba, so I'll definitely be back. Very satisfied with both the food and service.

It's on the 1st floor of a building, with a ramp up to the entrance. When we went in and gave our party size, they said counter seats were available and showed us there. Seating includes the counter, tables, and a raised tatami area. Lots of people came after us and were turned away, which shows how popular it is. ◯Menu The drinks include a wide range of sake, shochu, and umeshu, so there's lots to enjoy. Beer comes on draft (Black Label, Yebisu Amber) and in bottles (Lager). Also, some shochu can be bottle-kept, and they'll hold it for 6 months. For food, I expected it to be yakitori-focused, but there's also sashimi, fried dishes, and closing dishes, so you can enjoy a whole evening start to finish in one place. To start, imo shochu with water ヽ(*･ω･)o□☆□o(･ω･*)ﾉ Cheers♪ For food, I just ordered what's in the photos. ■Hon-maguro sashimi Very delicious tuna. It was properly fresh (not frozen), and nicely marbled. It was 1500 yen, but this one's a winner. ■Homemade tsukune The menu said 2 pieces, but the staff made it 3. The firmness was just right — crispy yet fluffy, perfect. The sauce was delicious too. ■Liver negi-shio The liver is delicious of course, but the cooking is spot on. ■Negima The chicken is delicious. Negima is hard to grill well, but this was cooked properly. The saltiness was just right too. ■Kawa Grilled crispy, and it goes perfectly with the sauce. — Overall — This place was run by the owner of a certain sushi restaurant. The yakitori is indeed similar. And as you'd expect, the place is set up with every little detail taken care of. It's a really great place, so next time I'm thinking of trying their Kokubunji shop too♪

It was late on a Saturday, so there were no other guests and we got in right away! The yakitori was delicious! There's a wide selection of drinks, the food is tasty too, and judging by the price range, it's probably not a place the many students in Hachioji tend to go. The interior had a calm atmosphere!

A completely ordinary izakaya. The sashimi was ordinary too. The tsukune with grated daikon and ponzu was delicious. The staff's attitude was unpleasant too — like slamming the glasses down.
