Shinjuku City, Tokyo, Japan｜Uoshin Shinjuku

This is definitely a hard to find/figure out local izakaya, almost no English but with the help of our wonderful waitress we made it work. This is a place that might be impossible to wander into, especially because it gets crazy busy in the evenings. Order some of their food and relax with several beers and sake. Decompress from the day like all the other patrons in boisterous conversation. Super enjoyable.

Non-smoking, amazingly fresh seafood fairly priced. Usually the only gaijin there, but they do have a smaller English menu now. My go -to kaisen izakaya.

The taste is good, need to queue. Four dishes plus a small Japanese sake 6600yen, meal for 2 people
