NAKAMURABASHI: Cozy Torikizoku in near my neighborhood... small counter seating area with attentive service. (Sony RX100)

I had ventured into this branch of Torikizoku once but the counter seating was a bit too much of a squeeze and those customers were smoking... so I walked out.  

But this night around 9:30pm it was a younger non-smoking crowd and I had the counter all to myself.


There were no touch panel ordering tablets or buttons to alert the staff if you wanted to order but just above the counter was the drink bartender area and super easy to order anything quickly.  Started with the Mega Beer 298 yen...  The staff here was young Japanese folks.

Everything is nicely pictured and all items are 298 yen even the entire drink menu.


All you can eat cabbage!  A must!!




Seemed to be a regular diner at the counter... he was chatting up the staff.

Of course had to go for the fried chicken with ume (plum) dip but since its a limited time menu not sure when it will go away. https://www.torikizoku.co.jp/menu/fair


If you can go for this rice pot!  Takes about 30 minutes to make and there is some chicken and veggies inside.   I think it was called Nikomi-Gohan

Let it sit for a bit if you like the rice slightly brown.




Free refills on the cabbage with ponzu sauce and sesame seed oil topping (by request)

Overall I had 1 mega beer, fried chicken, all you can eat cabbage and a big pot of rice for only 1,284 yen.  This place doesn't provide a otoshi (automatic appetizer / table charge) thats normally 400 yen at most Izakaya's which is so nice.... sometimes this can be a bit of potato salad or mayo macaroni.  Will definitely be back if I'm alone and need to dine on a budget. GOGOGO!!!
