We visited on a Saturday. The place starts taking order from 3pm and we were seated before 3pm - in fact, if you arrive at 3pm, be prepared you’d have to start queuing already as most seats were already taken by then. It’s the biggest and freshest oyster I’ve ever tried and this place is very popular amongst local Japanese. You can have the oyster fresh or grilled, and we had one set for each. Oysters offered on the day depends on the daily catch and all oysters were caught in the northern coast in Japan (Hokkaido and northern Honshu) when we visited in mid Nov 23.

The side dishes are also very delicious and reasonably priced. It’s not a huge place and be prepared your food may take time to arrive - we got offered free crackers to make up for the extended waiting time.

This place will be high on my list when I think about having oyster next time.

This oyster bar is located in the basement of the tea shop. Walk downstairs and around the corner of the fancy restaurant and literally it’s in a corner with 3 tables and counter seating. There’s an English menu and it’s best to get a set because it’s cheaper than buying individually. There’s 3 set and I just asked which one tastes better and the main guy recommended set B. After he served it he also recommended the order to eat it so you eat the best last. I can say these oysters were the cleanest I’ve ever had with very little aftertaste. After that we ordered a giant rock oyster each that was at least 10years old. These things were the size of my son’s head. They were huge. It took 3 bites to finish and I was surprised at how clean they were. Usually bigger doesn’t mean better but in this case it was good. Finally I had a sweet miso butter and a cheese grilled oyster and they were both good as well.
This establishment is an excellent place to relax, drink some beers and drop a few oysters. The staff was helpful and very friendly. The oysters were outstanding as well. Definitely worth a stop.
