We made a reservation at this sushi restaurant by accident, but it turned out to be a wonderful surprise. The chef was kind and welcoming, making us feel right at home. Every type of sushi we tried was absolutely delicious. He also recommended some Japanese wine for dinner— we tried two of them, and they were both excellent. We would definitely love to visit again!

I went to several yakitori restaurants in Asakusa, and this one was the most delicious, surpassing the others. It was truly the best. Thank you for the meal.
The menu is extensive; I think there were quite a few options. In particular, the recommended dishes and seasonal menu items listed on the whiteboard were delicious.
The meat was just right and the sauce was delicious. It was nice and homey! The grill plate exchange cycle was also quick and efficient. I will visit again.
A long-established sukiyaki restaurant in Asakusa that has perfected tradition and flavor
At Chinya, you can enjoy sukiyaki made with marbled wagyu beef. The refined savory flavor unfolds with the aroma of the warishita sauce, and the meat’s sweetness and richness combine exquisitely so you won’t tire of it until the last bite. In a calm Japanese-style setting, this is an establishment where you can spend a luxurious moment accompanied by attentive service.
The cozy interior has seating on the second floor as well, but when I arrived around 6 PM, it was already bustling with many customers. I ordered the unaju (grilled eel over rice) and the recommended shio hitsumabushi (salted grilled eel over rice) from the owner. The large, fluffy eel highlighted its natural umami rather than the flavor of the sauce, making it a refined delicacy. The shio hitsumabushi was light and mild, and I enjoyed changing the flavor with condiments like wasabi, shiso leaves, and yuzu peel. The smoked ham served as an appetizer was a unique dish wrapped in eel skin and ham, lightly smoked and delicious.

I used it because there was an event at Hanayashiki, and a friend recommended it. It seemed that someone had asked the staff, and the inside of the shop was filled with BGM and decorations that matched the event, which was very soothing. Thank you for the decorations.
I ordered an omelette rice and a pudding. Both were very delicious. The cake also looked delicious, so I would like to use it again if I have the opportunity.
