It is a lively gathering place where locals and tourists alike shout orders and share plates of grilled vegetables.
💡 Tips before you go
- Ask for charcoal grills rather than gas burners to get an authentic smoky char on your meat.
- Order the 'yaki' (grilled) skewers first as they cook faster, then move to the simmered dishes like 'nimono'.
- Bring a small cash tip or round up your bill, as tipping is customary for table service in this style of dining.
