Near 阿佐ヶ谷駅, this restaurant offers exceptional やきとん and sashimi in a lively atmosphere. The owner’s attention to detail is evident throughout, with quality that satisfies both meat and fish lovers. Nothing you order misses the mark, and every order brings a sense of excitement. ◎Access About a 2-minute walk from 「阿佐ヶ谷駅」 on the JR中央線. Just steps from the station bustle, the access is excellent. ◎Entry route The restaurant is a street-facing space on the 1st floor. There is no large step at the entrance, but the doorway frame is about 15 centimeters high, so you have to step over it. There is a simple step provided, presumably to help with the height difference. 。 ◎Seating There are counter seats where the fragrant aroma of grilling drifts by, and table seats for relaxed conversation. The layout works for a wide range of occasions, from solo visits to drinks with friends. ◎Menu Alongside the signature 「やきとん」, the 「おまかせ刺し盛り」, boasting fresh seafood delivered directly from 豊洲, is the restaurant’s other main attraction. Drinks range widely from sours based on キンミヤ焼酎 to sake favored by connoisseurs. This time, I mainly enjoyed ホッピー. 【What I had】 ◎Alcohol ホッピー（白） set（480円） This really is the pairing for やきとん. With additional ナカ（250円）, it was an excellent companion to the food right to the end. ◎Food ■ポテ＆マカ合い盛り（580円） A pairing of potato salad and macaroni salad that seems obvious, yet I had not encountered it before. Both are rich and keep the ホッピー flowing. ■おまかせ刺し盛り（1,380円） That day it included ヒラマサ, ヒラメ, 本マグロ, and 生サバ. The sharply defined cuts showed freshness beyond what you would expect from a やきとん restaurant. The fatty richness of the 生サバ was especially outstanding. ■レバー（140円） Exactly as described: “meltingly soft and rich.” Perfectly cooked, it melts in your mouth. ■カシラ（140円） A moist, intensely savory skewer that really delivers the satisfaction of eating meat. ■なめろうの天ぷら（480円） Worthy of its signature-dish status, it packs concentrated flavor inside a crisp coating. Refreshing shiso and the tartness of ume paste provide a lovely accent. ■アンチョビポテト（480円） The saltiness and flavor are perfectly balanced, making it addictively hard to stop reaching for more. ■自家製浅漬け（300円） Crisp in texture and refreshing for the palate. ■とりから（480円） Big and juicy! The double accompaniment of mayonnaise and mustard is a delightful touch. 【—Overall assessment—】 If you are in 阿佐ヶ谷 thinking, “I want a drink with something delicious today,” you cannot go wrong here. Gulping down cold ホッピー while enjoying exceptionally fresh sashimi and carefully grilled skewers is pure bliss. It is not just a particular menu item: everything we ordered had quality that made us say “oh!” in surprise, and simply looking at the menu to decide what to order next was exciting. A place where delicious food and energetic staff can make anyone smile. This was a bar that leaves you feeling happy and energized just by visiting. I will be back. Thank you for the meal!

You order drinks verbally and write food orders on paper. There is a 2-hour time limit. I like how you can get here just a little way off the shopping arcade. All the 焼きとん was cheap and delicious. I will be back.

A popular izakaya in 阿佐ヶ谷. I appreciate that they welcome solo customers without making them feel awkward. Since the move, the interior is clean, and the staff’s lively atmosphere makes it a comfortable place to drink. Every skewer is delicious, whatever you order! The recommended dishes are thoughtfully prepared and something I look forward to on each visit. Drinks range from standard sours to sake. You can sometimes try some unique sake. I will keep coming here 🙏

A やきとん restaurant on the left a little way after turning at the corner of 蒲重かまぼこ店 in パールセンター. It moved here from かわばた通り last October, but it is as popular and lively as ever. I went at 19:00, and やきとん orders were coming in one after another, so you need to order quickly before things sell out. The ネギレバー, ハラミステーキ, and 焼きラーメン were good.

A little way off 阿佐ヶ谷パール商店街. You would not find this place unless someone told you about it. やきとん 瑞貴 You can see inside clearly from outside. It is packed with customers, and the energy comes right through. It already feels delicious before eating (lol). The restaurant’s recommendations, probably,, ネギレバー ネギタン An acquaintance’s recommendations ハラミステーキ チーズつくね Everything is delicious. Especially the ハラミステーキ at 480円—possibly a must. This was our second stop today, so we only had a quick drink, but with this quality and value, I want to come for a meal. Thank you for the meal!
