Gion Endo-san

It's one of my favorite shops.
I've noticed some harsh reviews calling it izakaya quality rather than kappo, but I don't think you would be able to find this type of food in an ordinary izakaya.
Not all chefs have access to the quality ingredients they want to work with.
I think it's natural for food wholesalers to give priority to selling high-quality ingredients to trusted stores.

It is true that there may not be many elaborate and flashy dishes like kaiseki or kappo, but it is hard to be fooled by the simplicity of the seasoning, which takes full advantage of the quality of the ingredients, and the degree of cooking. You can enjoy your meal.

The quality of the fish is really great.
In addition to the freshness, they are also careful about the type of fish, as well as the fat and texture of the fish.The Spanish mackerel I received the other day had a good amount of fat, which was the best thing I could say.

My recommendation is fried horse mackerel
It's delicious anyway.
You can enjoy the meaty horse mackerel fried to an exquisitely rare quality.
This is "real fried horse mackerel". It's no exaggeration to say so.

The word ``high-class izakaya'' that is loved by locals fits perfectly here.

Enjoy delicious Japanese sake with a few snacks. I want to feel free to enjoy what I like as much as I want. I want to eat something fresh and delicious.

This is a wonderful shop that fulfills that at a high level.

The owner was very friendly. (after 8pm)
There was an abundance of seasonal ingredients and it was very delicious.
I was very satisfied because I was able to order what I wanted a la carte. I'll come back later.
