Mito, Ibaraki, Japan｜Tommy Bird 水戸

Free choice of large serving of mapo fried rice for lunch. It was a little spicy for me, but it was delicious. The spoon was so round that I had to open my mouth wide to put it in my mouth.I was hot, spicy, sweaty, and full.

It was always takeout, but it was my first visit. It's delicious to take out, but it's different when it's freshly baked! Moreover, I was able to get the long-awaited lamb because it happened to overlap with the banquet! Visited the new store for the first time for lunch. Fried rice with shrimp sauce was fluffy and delicious. The kitchen seemed to be busy with the sound of the frying pan being turned all the time. There are high chairs for children, so it is safe for children. The child seemed to like the soup and repeatedly called it 1000 points. I want it for takeout.

This is my favorite izakaya in Mito. First of all, the rice is very delicious. No matter what you order, you'll be satisfied with the quality of the yakitori, fried rice, ajillo, and fried octopus. Drinks include soft drinks, non-alcoholic cocktails, and alcoholic drinks. You can compare the sakes, and there are rare sakes available, so it's fun to choose! The atmosphere of the restaurant is more like a cafe than an izakaya, with table seats and a counter. The counter is located in a gap in the wall, and I love it because it feels like a secret base. The interior, accessories, and food plates have a stylish atmosphere. The staff was very courteous and made me feel relaxed from the first time I went there. Of course, some of the staff are new, so there may be times when things don't go well, but I'm thinking about the future of the store and supporting them (^^) The manager politely saw us off in between dishes. It's a popular restaurant and quite crowded on Saturdays and Sundays, so I think it's better to call to check availability and make a reservation! However, the staff do their best and serve the food in a hurry, so I don't think it's slow at all. Some people might be interested, so I think this restaurant is suitable for small groups and people who can talk while waiting. I think the prices for both food and drinks are reasonable. However, I feel very satisfied!
