More Comments at Google MapWe ended up stumbling upon this restaurant while walking around Shinjuku, and while we had to wait about 20-30 minutes for a table, it definitely didn't disappoint! I had the Tendon meal (bowl of rice with 2 prawns, 1 fish, and 3 veggies). As expected, they know how to make tempura perfectly! The batter was perfectly crispy and piping hot while still leaving the inside soft and tender. Although there was an English barrier between us and the wait staff, they were still very friendly and tried their best to accommodate us. Would recommend!
All tempura are cut right after you order, and deep fried in front of you, serve one after one as they just deep fried. It tastes really good and fresh.
A good dining experience in the heart of Shinjuku that offers high quality tempura dishes in a Japanese setting. Counter seating is available first floor and chairs/ tables on the second floor (both western style and tatami mat). On entering I was dealt with quickly. Service was excellent and the food is cooked at the counter and brought to you. The wait staff were friendly and accommodating, and although no English was spoken they offered me an English menu. I had the 7 piece "Hana" set, which included about 7 pieces of tempura, miso soup, rice (refills of soup and rice available). This was a bit on the pricey side at 2,650 yen but "tendon sets" were also available. At just under 2000 yen with miso soup (refills ok) and a small plate of vegetables this was the most reasonably-priced set. My party found it filling! (It is worth pointing out that you will find cheaper tempura, but these prices are quite normal at the better tempura restaurants in Shinjuku.) Each dish was served immediately after it was cooked and tasted good -light and not too oily. Clientele were a mix of locals and tourists, and both looked to be enjoying the food. Credit cards are accepted. If you prefer not to have a "set" then tempura can also be ordered individually too. Alcoholic and soft drinks are available.
