I made a reservation in advance and came alone on a weekday night.
It was so successful that many people had to leave in tears because the seats were full and the people who came later couldn't get in.
It's a small shop, and an efficient and hard-working lady serves the food and takes orders all by herself, so it takes quite a while for your cup to arrive...
However, since I could see the aunt working very hard right in front of me, I didn't feel bad about it.
Since there are only two people in the kitchen, the food comes out quite slowly. .
(Does it come out quickly? It's also slow.)
All the food is delicious
It's a good place to go if you have some free time and want to relax and enjoy some drinks.

This is an excellent izakaya located in Tanukikoji.
The atmosphere is good, and you can enjoy delicious fish, special dishes, and Japanese sake.
From the appetizer to the appetizer, the food is delicious, carefully prepared, goes well with sake, and is reasonably priced but authentic.
