Great atmosphere, original and traditional Japanese food from the Shikoku region. The chef will grill fish and meat with straw in front of you! Try out the bonito, it's worth the trip.

A well known place from the locals and expats alike to enjoy fresh seafood. Andy's is located under the rails of the JR lines, if you are not claustrophobic it's quite an experience! The quality of the food is at it's best, Andy buy all the fish himself at Tsukiji each morning so the selection of food will depend on what was available on that day ;)

Good food (mostly seafood), good prices and nice atmosphere. It's packed with local and their menu is handwritten and hardly readable even if you know Japanese but fortunately they also have a menu with pictures and you can still ask for their recommendation ;)
