What to Order

The Ginger Pork Set (Shogayaki Teishoku) is a crowd favorite—tender pork with a sweet-savory ginger glaze, served with rice, miso soup, and sides. Portions are generous, so come hungry.

Other good picks: Tonkatsu (crispy pork cutlet), Karaage (fried chicken), and grilled fish for something lighter.

Tip: It’s cash only. Bring yen and try to avoid peak lunchtime to skip the line.
