The tatami floor felt so nice under my socks. It was a quiet, sunlit space, not like the usual bustling izakayas. Just taking my shoes off at the entrance made the whole lunch feel different.

The portions are huge for the price! Came here with a couple friends, we split a few dishes and it was more than enough. Perfect for a chill, budget-friendly hangout.

The staff were really nice and efficient. We got seated quickly even with a line outside. The service was good, but honestly, the portion sizes felt a bit small for the price. I left still a little hungry.

Came for the lake view, and the glass walls really deliver. You&#39;re right there on the water. The lunch set was a bit pricier than I expected, but I guess you&#39;re paying for the scenery too.

This place is right by Mito Station, super handy. Grabbed a coffee while waiting for my train. The large size is pretty big for the price, felt like a good deal. Just what I needed.

First time at a Jiro-style spot! The broth was super rich and umami. My friends and I shared the thick pork slices &mdash; so tender. The bean sprouts are plain on their own, but perfect for dipping. A fun spot for a casual group meal.

The Mont Blanc is a must for chestnut fans. The flavor is so pure and natural, and the texture is wonderfully fluffy. It&#39;s definitely a bit pricey, but the quality is there.

Stopped in on a whim. The simple, calm space was just right. A nice touch&mdash;they brought us an extra portion of one dish.

The oyakodon set was a nice surprise. The eggs were so creamy, just the right texture. Rice had a good flavor too. Simple but really hit the spot.

I love the high ceilings and big windows here. It feels so calm and spacious. A nice quiet spot to sit with a coffee after walking around town.

The chef&#39;s cuisine is of high quality and reasonably priced, making it a great place to enjoy a meal alone or with friends.

The cream puffs were definitely a treat. A bit pricey, but you can taste the quality in every bite. The seating was quite comfortable too, which made it easy to relax and enjoy my coffee.

Came here after a big exam. The food was pretty good and the atmosphere was decent, a nice way to relax. The pasta was cooked just right. It was a bit on the pricey side, but overall a fine experience.

The eel dish was fragrant and fluffy, making it one of the most delicious meals I&#39;ve had. I would definitely order it again!

The all-you-can-drink deal is solid. I added it via their LINE promo for a discount, easy enough. They take a bunch of e-payments too, which is handy. Just wish the beer selection was a bit wider.

The warm lettuce and mushroom salad was a huge, generous bowl! Really enjoyed it with a draft beer.
