This is my favorite restaurant in Gotanda,
It's delicious, so you should try it, too.

Great Chinese food with a hint of Japanese influence. Location is great and pretty near JR Gotanda. Service? Superb. Attentive and friendly staff who served us quickly and even sent us off to the door step when we left.

Anyway, it was so filling and delicious that I could eat it all in one go.
The menu has a wide range of options, and I'm not sure whether to order ramen or shrimp fried rice next time. The staff at the restaurant were very pleasant, and when I left, the kitchen staff thanked me! I was happy to hear that voice.

I had a chat with a former colleague. It was close to my workplace, so I used it often about 35 years ago. It's been a long time. This is the so-called town Chinese food. The store isn't big. There is a table on the first floor and a tatami room on the second floor. I live in China now, but authentic Chinese food is different. I think the people at the restaurant had a hard time handling orders because they were drinking and eating so fast. I like the taste. Everything was delicious. I should have ordered the sauce yakisoba as well.

I had the Niku Shanghai Yakisoba that everyone recommended!

It's soy sauce-based yakisoba, but it's full of chewy noodles, vegetables, and meat.

It was a delicious Yakisoba that was easy to eat and full of flavor, different from the sauce!

Also, the customer service from the store staff was very polite and wonderful.

Locals were also eating together, and it was a Showa-era town Chinese restaurant that I don't want to disappear forever.
