Ootoya — Restaurant in Tokyo

Ok folks, if you’re a parent with a little one, in a stroller with your shopping bags/cooler/backpacks/etc and you come here on a Friday during lunch rush. . . You might be waiting a little bit. BUT, it’s well worth it. We had a little time to spare before our Airbnb check in, and little did we know this place was going to be jammed packed! The booth in the back corner was nice and comfy! Vibes were cozy! Food was excellent! We will be coming back to try the rest of the menu! Came here on a recommendation from the YouTuber Abroad in Japan....

外苑前駅から徒歩2～3分程度のところにある大戸屋です。 やや古びたビルの2階にあるからかもしれませんが、店内は清潔に保たれているものの、床や壁など、やや古い印象を受けます。ビル自体にエレベーターがありますが、このレストランへ行くのには利用できず、昇降は階段のみです。そのため、車椅子等の障碍を持つ方の利用はお勧めしません。店内は狭く、それ以上に混雑している時の店外の待合スペースは全く無いと言えるほどの狭さであるため、混雑時の利用も同時にお勧めしません。 給仕される料理の質、スタッフの接客対応の質は、他の大戸屋と遜色ありません。各テーブルの間隔も狭く、隣の客の話し声が響きやすい構造となっているため、ゆったりとした気持ちでの利用には向かないでしょう。

The quality of the dishes served and the customer service of the staff are comparable to other Ootoya restaurants. The space between each table is also narrow, and the structure makes it easy to hear the conversations of neighboring customers, so it is not suitable for use in a...

Yummy Japanese food for $15 or less. Went around 5 pm on a weekday and there was about a 10 min wait.

You order off of an I-pad that has an English/Japanese/Korean menu. The menu also has an allergy setting so you can avoid the things that might kill you.

There are tables for single customers and also setting that can accommodate probably up to 5 people.

Loved the food that I got and...
