WHY IT'S A MESHI MAP PICK
Locals keep coming back. That is the real proof.
地元の人が、通い続ける。それが何よりの証明。
A rare find in Tokyo — a proper irori-hearth robatayaki restaurant housed in a building crafted from Meiji-era farmhouse timbers, with a striking exterior designed to evoke Aomori Station.
明治時代の古民家材を用いた建物に都内でも希少な本格囲炉裏を構え、旬の魚介を炭火で焼く滋味深い料理が長年にわたり中野のシンボルとして愛され続ける炉端焼きの名店。
Seasonal seafood grilled over charcoal here carries the kind of depth that has made it a neighborhood landmark in Nakano for generations, earning a spot in the Tabelog Izakaya EAST Top 100 for 2025.
青森駅をイメージした唯一無二の外観も相まって、食べログ居酒屋EAST百名店2025に選出されるほどの存在感を放つ。
Lunch starts from around 1,200 yen; dinner reservations are strongly recommended.
ランチは1,200円から本格炉端焼きを楽しめ、ディナーは予約なしでは入れないことも多い。

Robatayaki restaurant using Meiji-era house materials with a traditional hearth. 2 min from Nakano Station north exit. Charcoal-grilled fresh seafood. Tabelog Izakaya EAST Top 100 2025.

"Fish grilled over a real irori hearth is exceptional. It's rare to find robata-yaki this authentic in Tokyo. Lunch is especially great value." "Nakano's premier izakaya. Lines form before opening. Evenings may turn away solo diners, but lunch is easy to enter."
