ISHOKUYA Watami — Restaurant in Tokyo

This is absolutely one of the best izakayas we've had in Tokyo and it's in a non tourist area. The crowd is mostly locals and very nice people. No Frills working people, students, young people a few foreigners but the food is absolutely excellent. The Yakitori and sashimi were excellent you must try it if you're in this area. Not a food destination but real good food for real people.

This is not a fancy place. Very humble but clean with real binchotan charcoal yakitori and fresh seafood. We had sashimi, fried chicken and yakitori. You can spend very little and be full.

Close to the hotel we stayed. We passed by and looked nice so we stopped over for dinner. The owner is super charismatic. We ate the robatas/skewers. They were very nice. Chicken wings was my favorite. Had sake, beer and ginger Ale. Also tried the ice cream he was promoting from his farm, a little bit too sweet for my taste, but texture wise very smooth. The 3,8 stars i think is too low for the food quality and price. The only point I make is that they should organize better the delivery system to the table. Our second order of skewers took a long time but seems to me it was ready they just forgot to bring to the table. But that did not ruined our great nite experience!...

We ended up at this Japanese restaurant by chance because the Italian place we planned to visit wasn’t open yet — and we’re so glad we did! From the moment we walked in, the host greeted us warmly and made us feel very welcome. He explained parts of the menu in his best English and gave us some great recommendations for both food and drinks. The service was truly attentive and friendly throughout the meal. The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and definitely worth it. Sometimes the best meals happen by surprise! Highly...
