What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Founded in 1946, this izakaya landmark sits on Asahikawa's 2-jo-dori. One of the rare spots serving both Shinko-yaki and eel, it was featured in the Michelin Guide Hokkaido 2012 and gained nationwide fame when it appeared in the 2016 drama 'Solitary Gourmet (Asahikawa episode).' Consistently selected for the Izakaya EAST 100 Best Restaurants (2021, 2024, 2025). Excellent sake, excellent food, excellent atmosphere — local regulars and fans from afar never stop coming.

Praised as 'a genuine izakaya where sake, food, and atmosphere are all exceptional.' TripAdvisor 4.2 (65 reviews), Tabelog 3.55 (508 reviews). Reservations are essential; many regulars comment 'I always come here on my last night in Asahikawa.' Consecutive 100 Best selection (2021, 2024, 2025) proves consistent quality.
