Ran-man Review Summary

This place blowed my mind away completely…first of all, this cozy Izakaya has a history of more than 100 years, with very well maintained facade and inside too. (Don’t think it just looks old!)

And the food, especially Sashimi, thinly sliced fish placed as if a piece of artwork, does not only look great but also taste amazing.

Everything professionally made and served with affordable price considering the quality of food. Pride of this city, Nakano, it must be.

Very classic yet simple Japanese restaurant. Japanese cultural beauty is here as well as quality of food. Splendid!

I had high hopes for this place after seeing the comments such as ``The freshness of the sashimi'' and ``If you want to eat fish in Tokyo, this is the place to go,'' but to be honest, I was disappointed.
The freshness of the sashimi wasn't particularly good either.
Maybe my expectations were too high because I often eat delicious sashimi, but I think 9,000 yen per person is a bit high considering we only drank one alcoholic drink each.

Good store. I think their commitment to honestly serving delicious fish and sake is wonderful.
Although the store has an old-fashioned appearance and is small, it feels clean and has a calm atmosphere that doesn't feel like a ``regulars' store.'' It's also good that there's no BGM playing. It feels like it's clearly different from an izakaya.

All the fish are absolutely delicious. The people at the store are also nice. I want to come again.

An izakaya in Nakano with a Showa feel.
The fish is delicious and the oden is also delicious.
A cool and nice restaurant that makes you feel like you've grown up.
