Taito City, Tokyo, Japan｜四川本格火鍋専門店 HINABE VON SATOMI 上野店

My favorite hot pot place in Tokyo! The food is delicious and the staff is so kind. They don’t have a printed English menu however both times we went the staff was kind enough to read it out to us in English. Which shows just how amazing their service is. We really appreciated all the options we had for vegetables and meat as other places we tried were very limited. In fact we tried another well rated hot pot restaurant in the area, it was so bad we left and returned to this one. I will return here the next time I’m in Tokyo no question ! Pro tip: It can be a little difficult to find this restaurant, it helps to know it’s on the second floor.

A very delicious hot pot restaurant. The service attitude is super super good, I ordered a glass of white wine, because there is not enough ice, the proprietress took the initiative to prepare an ice bucket, super considerate and super nice. Of course, the taste of hot pot is somewhat different from that in China, but the experience is very good.

Great spot in the nearby of Ueno park to try out some Chinese hot pot. - Atmosphere is really good, with some jazzy vibes going on, good illumination and new furniture. - Staff is friendly and predisposed to help newcomers to the hot pot world. - Food is just great. Mouth-watering lamb and black pork, beef, seafood and fish. The price per piece is very appropriate and you have several sauces to choose from that will make your evening as delicious as it can be. Overall, I’d definitely come back and encourage anyone to try it out. For tourists: it might not be fully Japanese, but very recommended regardless.
