Hakone, Kanagawa, Japan｜鶏とハイボール フライングチキン

I would rate this izakaya more than 5 stars if possible. If you're wondering whether it's worth the walk over, it is! We were struggling to find a restaurant that wasn't full or closed at 9pm on a Monday night but this place had seats. There is an English food menu. Use Google lens for the recommendations menu and drinks menu. The one staff member was amazing. Drinks came out incredibly fast. He made food to order including battering things for deep frying. Everything was delicious. Some favourites were the chicken thigh karaage, stir fried Enoki, stir fried pork tongue, and chicken neck karaage. Thanks for an incredible dinner! We (4 adults) stuffed ourselves with almost the whole menu for dinner and had 2-3 drinks each for around 17500 yen total.

Great experience at this restaurant. We stopped here midweek and the area has a limited number of restaurants in operation in the evenings. The fried chicken was great and the price point was agreeable. Great service. They also have a karaoke machine if you get the urge to sing (200 yen a song). Highly recommended!!

Came here for dinner. Very welcoming and friendly. I feel like I am one of the locals here. A small and cozy izakaya that opens late night (1am). It is located under a high-rise. A 15 to 20 mins walk from the station. English menu is available upon request. Food are excellent. They are famous of their fried chicken. I was not disappointed. They are indeed delicious. Light, juicy and crispy! Reasonable price. Each person has to order 1 drink. Recommended!
