Appearance

“Outside view”

The estimated travel time on foot is 2 minutes from Shinjuku Sanchome Station (Tokyo Marunouchi Line and Fukutoshin Line) and 3 minutes from Shinjuku Station (JR Chuo Line) – South Exit.

The exterior of the building has a black and white theme which adds up to a neat-looking style. As for the foreign travelers like me, it’s best to check the Kanji name of the resto first so as not to waste time upon your visit.

Since this restaurant is indeed famous, expect it to be overcrowded most of the time and long lines can be really a burden but if you wish to have a secure spot faster, it’s best to come in early like 30 minutes before the shop opens.

Ambiance

“The Counter Seating”

“The Table Seating”

The interior of the restaurant is so simple and it is really a very limited space having only 22 available seats to accommodate the customers but it is without a doubt, a well-maintained place. The lighting is just average, not too bright and not to dim which is good and a mood booster.

If you are dining alone, counter seats will be the best spot. This place is also recommended if you’re with a friend or co-worker, and even for dating. Most of their customers are locals and foreign travelers like Koreans and Chinese people.

Recommended Menu

Beef Cutlet & Barley Rice Set”

This place is best known for its deep fried beef cutlet or commonly known here in Japan as “Gyukatsu”. Their beef cutlet is described as tender and juicy. It gives that satisfying taste to the customers!

It comes with a mini stone grill just for customers who wish to grill the inner part of gyukatsu longer than necessary. This setup mostly applies to foreign customers.
