This is my favorite standing bar. It's not very spacious, so it's lucky if you can just drop in, but you can also reserve a spot by phone. The menu is cheap and extensive, and everything is delicious. The sashimi is fresh. There's a wide variety of sake, and there are also some items not on the menu, so it's a good idea to ask the staff. The staff are friendly, easygoing, and easy to talk to. The clientele is mostly regulars, but it's not intimidating at all. I'll definitely be back.

A cozy, well-sized standing bar. There seems to be a small table in the back (I didn't look closely, so I'm guessing it's a table for four?). The counter has standing room for about 10 people, and there's one standing table for three. That's the layout. The lighting is dim, creating a relaxed atmosphere. The person who seemed to be the manager was friendly and welcoming with a warm smile. High likeability. The appetizers are around ¥500 and are just the right size for one person. It would be great to have a place like this near home or work.

The sake, sashimi, and appetizers were all delicious, and the atmosphere of this standing bar was fantastic. The burdock tempura was absolutely amazing, and I definitely want to go back.

The selection of drinks is extensive, with sake ranging from affordable to rare varieties. The food menu is also diverse, with all dishes priced reasonably. The flavors were perfect for enjoying with drinks. We arrived shortly after opening, but the place quickly filled up with customers. It's probably best to make a reservation. The atmosphere is very comfortable and welcoming. For groups of three or more, a table in the back is available.
