Order the signature shrimp-only kakiage bowl, fried in Edo-style tempura tradition with a secret sauce and charcoal-cooked rice.

In their own words: “First, a restaurant which got the Bib Gourmand! A small restaurant known for its kakiage-don. Kakiage is made entirely with shrimp, topped with a secret sauce. What makes this place even more special is that they stick to the Edo-style tempura tradition, frying everything in sesame oil. This spot earned a Bib Gourmand in the Michelin Guide for offering incredible value without compromising on quality. I got a seat at the counter, right in front of me, the chef was frying tempura, honestly, I could’ve watched him work all day. I went for their signature shrimp-only kakiage bowl. The kakiage itself? Light and crispy from the first bite. And the shrimp inside, so juicy. The sauce had this amazing depth. The rice, it’s not just any rice. They actually cook it with charcoal and ice in the pot. You can definitely taste the difference. It’s a great place to come solo or with friends.”
