Nagoya, Aichi, Japan｜Tempura Yajima

Great tempura offerings with fine sake selection.

A friend recommended it to me, so I went there at 12pm on a Saturday with two people without a reservation, and luckily I was able to find a seat at the counter in less than 10 minutes. The next person who came to the store without a reservation was not able to enter even after an hour, so reservations are essential. I'm at the age where I'm starting to not eat greasy foods anymore, but the tempura here is so light and light that I feel like I can eat as much as I want. Of course, all the ingredients are delicious, and even though the lunch set is cheap, it's filling and satisfying. I don't think the maburushi will take away the goodness of the tempura. I thought so, but it's also quite easy to enjoy with wasabi seasoning or dashi soup. The sauce is light but delicious. The manager is the only one frying the tempura. He seemed to be a very attentive and attentive person, and while eating, I watched him frying tempura from the counter, skipping instructions to the hall and answering the phone. Of course, the people serving the food were polite and attentive. I can't believe that I was able to get such delicious food with such polite customer service for such a reasonable price. It took me about 30 minutes to come eat, but I think I'll have to come back many times.

I had the tempura glaze. It was my first time to eat tempura mawashi. There are 6 different ways to eat it and it was so much fun! It's crispy and not too boring, so you can eat it all! The homemade tofu, pickles, and soba that came with the set were also delicious.
