It's warm because it's packed after you order.
The bento comes with salad and miso soup, and the side dishes made with various ingredients are colorful and very delicious. There aren't many restaurants around here where you can get such a hearty lunch box at this price.

Since it was my first time at the restaurant, I ordered this week's recommended lunch: Pork Saute Chaliapin, salad, and coffee for 950 yen. When you order, your meat will be grilled on a teppanyaki iron plate attached to the counter. I feel like I've come to eat at a high-end Yakiniku restaurant.
Everything arrived in about five minutes, so I asked for it and started eating. First of all, the sautéed pork was piping hot as it was grilled right in front of me, and to my delight, the portion was quite large. Also, the mysterious spring rolls that came out along with it? There was a fried egg inside, which seemed strange, but it was delicious.
You can refill the rice, but the first bowl was hard, but the second one was soft. The salad was quite filling for lunch.
It's an overall satisfying restaurant, and you can take a break with a cup of coffee (or tea) after your meal. It seems to be run by an elderly couple, and it's rare to find a restaurant like this around here, so I'd like to go there again. I think I'll have a bowl next time.

There are always 4 to 5 bento items, and 2 items change every month. Miso soup is always included. The salad comes with the monthly lunch box and is voluminous! Delicious, cheap and recommended!
There is a point card.
Once your tank is full, you can enjoy a recommended lunch for free!

What is the difference between Teppanyaki and Hibachi?
3 May 2024Teppanyaki and Hibachi are two Japanese cooking styles that involve grilling on a hot iron plate. While often used interchangeably, they have distinct differences. Teppanyaki refers to cooking on a flat griddle, where chefs skillfully prepare dishes like steak, seafood, and vegetables in front of diners. Hibachi, on the other hand, uses a round, open-grate grill heated by charcoal or gas, imparting a smoky flavor to the food. Discover the nuances and theatrical flair of these two captivating Japanese culinary arts.
