What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Established in 2004, a yakiton (grilled offal skewers) casual bar 1 minute walk from Nogata Station South Exit. Called 'the Eastern Akimotoya,' it is a representative yakiton restaurant of western Tokyo. Fresh offal arriving daily from Shibaura meat market starting at 120 yen per skewer. Hoppy and yakiton set for around 3,000 yen. Tabelog 3.65/666 reviews. Yahoo Maps 4.1. Order by writing on paper. Lines form before opening on weekends. Many apprentice-style restaurants opened independently across Tokyo.

"This quality for 120 yen per skewer is insane" "A place to find happiness with Hoppy and yakiton" "Lines form an hour before opening on weekends" "This restaurant is why I moved to Nogata" "Can't imagine Tokyo without Akimotoya"
