Tama, Tokyo, Japan｜Tsunahachi - Seiseki-sakuragaoka

When I stopped by Seiseki Sakuragaoka, I visited Shinjuku Tsunahachi! [Visit scene] Visited around 6pm. There were a moderate number of customers, but I felt safe because the distance was tight. 【order】 I ordered the cherry blossom course. [Food taste and volume] The crispy tempura is delicious! In particular, the Shimonita green onion tempura had a wonderful sweetness and was so delicious that it was called my best green onion. I had the kakiage served in a tempura bowl and it was delicious too! You can hear the sound of frying from the kitchen and it whets your appetite 😋 [Value] It costs about 4000 yen including drinks. I feel that the quality is cheap since it comes from a long-established tempura restaurant. 【atmosphere】 The inside of the store is calm and has a very nice atmosphere. It's surprisingly spacious with a room in the back. 【place】 It is located on the 8th floor of Keio Seiseki Sakuragaoka Shopping Center Building B. It seems that they also serve lunch, so I would like to try some tempura bowls! This is a store I want to visit again!

Tempura is generally only eaten at restaurants (specialty restaurants). I had a relaxing time at the counter today as well. The time is 16:00, right after dinner time starts, and this is the best time to go if you want to avoid the crowds. When I entered the store, there was only one other customer. I thought it was because of the coronavirus that no one was coming in, but I was surprised to hear from the staff that this store is even busier than it was before the coronavirus. You'll be surprised! It's true that it's a weekday at this time, but when I started eating, there was a steady stream of other customers, including solo customers, elderly couples, and families with cute grandchildren. As expected, this is a restaurant area in a shopping center directly connected to Seiseki Sakuragaoka Station! A good location that is not affected by the weather. What's more, even though it's a specialty store, it's located inside a shopping center, so families can feel free to bring their children along. In addition to the counter, there are table seats, private rooms, and semi-private rooms that are convenient to use depending on the number of people and purpose. Personally, I recommend seating at the counter for foodies who want to eat freshly fried food as quickly as possible. There are a wide variety of individual items on the menu, but this time we had the "Yoshino" course, which is the restaurant's most popular. The drink that went with it was Japanese sake. They say they have fresh sake from the brewery, so I chose Shirika, which has a nice original Tsunahachi label. I think it's perfect for having a quick drink while having a course. [Yoshino course] ・The scent of truffles spreads gently. The potatoes are seasoned, so don't add anything to them. ・Sashimi Amberjack It has a crunchy elasticity. ・Shrimp with salt is recommended. But I also like tempura sauce, so I enjoy each half. Fresh shrimp that is twitching and crispy right before your eyes! It crumbles in your mouth and is crispy, and thanks to the delicate preparation and deep frying, it doesn't stick in your mouth, which is to be expected. ・Kisu Salt and tempura sauce go well together, and the flavor oozes out as the meat falls apart in your mouth. ・Black Maitake mushrooms from Niigata, softer than regular Maitake mushrooms In a good way, it doesn't have the distinctive odor of Maitake mushrooms. With Tentsuyu. ・Poirot green onion (Western green onion) In winter, Shimonita green onions are used. Enjoy the fiery heat with the delicate bonito flakes in the tempura soup. so sweet! Melting taste. Just be careful not to get really cold. ・Mongo squid wasabi salt Thick, elastic, and soft. Wasabi salt brings out the sweetness of the squid. ・Conger conger with the promised plum meat. Personally, I enjoyed the last conger conger of the year. Experience how good your preparation skills are! As we taste the end of summer...the next dish... ・Large Mie clams and matsutake mushrooms inside the shellfish. A luxurious dish made with sudachi and dashi soy sauce. Ginkgo nuts that shine in emerald green are seasoned with salt. This dish is full of autumn flavors! ・Salad with flavor to cleanse your palate ・Small Tendon is kakiage fried with special Tsunahachi sauce. My favorite tempura bowl! My favorite shrimp! My favorite kakiage! Even after eating this much tempura, I was able to finish the whole meal deliciously without feeling hungry at all. Pickles, miso soup with clams, tea ・The final dessert was yuzu sorbet and a demi-cup size coffee. As expected, it was the most popular course and I was very satisfied. There are two other night courses available. [Yoshino] is in the middle of the three in terms of price and volume, and I think it's perfect for women and men who aren't big eaters. The tempura is really delicious, so it's worth ordering a few more!

I love tempura and go to many different tempura restaurants. There is no other shop that is as ``fun'' and ``cozy'' as this one. This is my favorite shop! Tempura has a crispy coating, The contents are rare but well cooked. It has a deep texture, texture, and flavor. When it comes to taste, everyone has their own preferences, so there are probably many different opinions. I like this flavor. It's not just the taste that makes it a favorite. The interior of the shop is clean, as well as the clothes of the craftsmen and staff. I also use tasteful utensils. And not only the tempura but also the rice is delicious! Another thing worth mentioning is the warm hospitality of the staff. With an exquisite sense of distance from customers, They will greet you with a smile and make you feel comfortable. I went to a wedding anniversary meal the other day. They served us some fun tempura as a surprise! There are other restaurants that only serve delicious food. But, there aren't that many shops where you can have a good time. That's why I love this store.
