Sumida City, Tokyo, Japan｜ホルモン武蔵

Very nice hormon restaurant! The quality Is High and the prices very nice! Good Place to go After the Tokyo Sky Tree!

Great late night option for adventurous eaters near the Sky Tree. For Americans unfamiliar with "horumon", it is similar to Korean BBQ but with offal. It is delicious and affordable, but you do need to leave your comfort zone a little. There is an English menu available. If you don't know where to start, go with the 3-type or 5-type sampler. The heart ("hatsu") was extremely good and could have passed for a super tender steak. I liked the open seating layout a lot. Tiny single-counter restaurants can feel intimidating since every other diner has to wait and listen while you get lost in interpretation with the cook. Here, though, the waitress can patiently answer your questions at your own table, and that is very nice. Credit cards are accepted. The staff don't speak English but are friendly and will try to help. I visited on a Tuesday around 7:30PM and did not need a reservation. Spent about 3,000 yen for dinner and drinks and left very full.

Enjoy fresh offal grilled over charcoal in a beautiful shop. The chewy and fragrant offal is extremely delicious, and the sake goes on and on.
