Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan｜港町のモンキチ

Good vibes, fresh, young, tasty! We really enjoyed this Izakaya restaurant. The quality of food was really good despite only young chefs are there. It’s on a basement but we felt good vibes.

We arrived here at 11pm on our first night in Sapporo. Exhausted and hungry. We ordered pretty much everything seafood and a few skewers to top up the much needed protein intake . Service was prompt and efficient. Within 10 minutes our order was ready. The food was reasonably priced and delicious. Highly recommended. Staff speak little English but thanks to Google Translate, everything was relatively easy.

I used it for dinner on my trip to Hokkaido. It's a wonderful shop! The crab cream croquette was especially good. The crab meat and miso are so thick that you can't even see the croquette! It was my first time to eat a fish called star anise, and it was so delicious that I would definitely like to eat it again. The dessert of Marusei butter sandwich mixed with vanilla ice cream is also good! There are many young employees, all of whom are smiling and provide good customer service. There aren't many seats, so I think it's best to make a reservation.
