Hanno, Saitama, Japan｜Pota-tei

Cosy izakaya with delicious food! Pricing was very reasonable. The yakiniku salad costs only 550 yen but the serving was very generous. Seem like a place that the locals frequent. It is a 5 min walk from the Hanno train station. Not sure if they have an English menu or if the service staff speaks English. The restaurant is run by three ladies. Highly recommend if you are in the area.

The restaurant had a nice atmosphere and the food was delicious. I’m addicted to Potatei’s salted pickled rakkyo 🤤 Was it grilled tomatoes with cheese? Simple, delicious and served hot on an iron plate ✨ After drinking beer, I had a delicious rice ball. Even if I just plan to stop by for a drink, I end up getting addicted to the food and end up drinking a lot 😊🙏

The atmosphere of the shop is good, and the regular customers talk to me kindly, so it's okay to go alone. Since it is based on Kyushu cuisine, there are menu items that cannot be eaten at other izakayas, and the amount of salads is enough for two people, so be careful. They also have a wide variety of alcoholic beverages, especially the Tamashii no Shikon, which is a limited-brewed sweet potato shochu that goes well with horse sashimi, and you can't help but drink too much. Since it corresponds to birthday parties and girls' associations, it is a good idea to ask when you have a large number of people.
