We loved this place so much that we came twice during our short stay in Tokyo. Everything was so good and the chef posts a lot of recipes here and on Instagram and you can tell that he is really enthusiastic about cooking. There’s no English menu as I think a lot of the ingredients would be hard to translate, but google translate helps and chef also tries his best to communicate in English with you. Highly recommended! Also best to make a reservation as it is a smaller place.

帰省の新幹線を降り新橋駅で下車。
美味しい夕飯が食べたくて神社の鳥居をくぐり、左折した路地にあったお店で、お席が空いていて入れたお店
【おだしと、おさけ。すずめ】

日本酒のすっきりとした飲み口の岩手『酔右衛門』と『お出汁のトマト』で始まり『白海老の天ぷら(青のり)』からの『角ハイボール』、で隣の方に便乗して『なめろう』も。
どれも素材の味ありきで旨く時間があればまだまだ食べていたかったです。

☆追記
川崎の先輩と急遽食事をする事になり、再訪問。
彼女は下戸ですが食べるのが好きな方で2年半ぶり😢
コロナと介護でなかなか逢えなくて。
彼女は仕事柄、烏森神社付近は土地勘がありました。

下戸なのでなかなか１人で居酒屋は入れないから‼️と期待も大きく、食事後も『美味しかった‼️』と喜んで貰えよかったです。

ここのメニューは種類が多いだけでなくアイディアも素敵でそのうえ美味しい。
お一人の方(男女とも)や常連さんが多いみたいでした。
15席くらい？の席も、18時くらいにはいっぱいでした。

今回飲んだ宮城『綿屋』は旨味もあってすっきりなので最初に、秋田『田人(ひとは人人と書く)』は甘めで濃厚なので、後半にいただきました。

日曜で『なめろう』が無かったので、次を楽しみに‼️

2022/5
I got off the Shinkansen on my way home and got off at Shinbashi Station.
I wanted to eat a delicious dinner, so I passed through the shrine's torii gate, turned left, and found this restaurant in an alley.There were seats available, so I went in.
[Dashi and salmon. Sparrow]

Starting with Iwate's ``Suueemon'', which has a refreshing taste of Japanese sake, and ``Dashi Tomato'', we started with ``White Shrimp Tempura (Aonori)'' and then ``Kaku Highball'', then we took advantage of the person next to us and decided on ``Namero''. "too.
Everything was delicious based on the taste of the ingredients, and if I had time, I would have eaten more.

☆P.S.
I decided to have a quick meal with my senior from Kawasaki, so I visited again.
She is underage, but she likes to eat and it's been 2 and a half years since she left😢
Due to the coronavirus and nursing care, we haven't been able to meet up often.
Because of her job, she was familiar with the area around Karasumori Shrine.

Since I'm in Shimoto, I can't go to an izakaya by myself! ️ I had high expectations, and after the meal I said, ``It was delicious! ️' I'm glad that you were happy with it.

The menu here is not only diverse, but also has great ideas and is delicious.
There seemed to be a lot of solo customers (both men and women) and regular customers.
About 15 seats? The seats were full by 6pm.

The Miyagi ``Wataya'' that I drank this time was delicious and refreshing, so I had it first, and the Akita ``Tajin (Hito is written as Hitto)'' was sweet and rich, so I had it in the second half.

There was no ``Namero'' on Sunday, so I'm looking forward to the next one!! ️

いつもおいしいです。
お任せ5品を注文すると名物の料理をお出ししてくれます。タコの天ぷらのたこ焼き風はすり身とたこがぷりぷりで、それがソースとマヨネーズによく合ってとてもおいしかったです。また、最後の方にはごぼうと鶏肉の炊き込みご飯いかがですか？と土鍋ごと見せながら席を回ってくれるのですが、あまりにもおいしそうで山椒とおじゃこの卵かけご飯をなかなか頼めてないのが実情です。
実はデザートもおいしく、今回はほうじ茶プリンをいただきました。ほうじ茶の風味もしっかりしており、固めのプリンでおすすめです。

It's always delicious.
If you order 5 omakase dishes, they will serve you a specialty dish. The takoyaki-style octopus tempura had plump minced meat and octopus, which went well with the sauce and mayonnaise and was very delicious. Also, how about some rice cooked with burdock and chicken towards the end? He goes around showing me the clay pot, but the truth is that it looks so delicious that I have a hard time ordering the egg-cooked rice with sansho and ojako.
In fact, the desserts were also delicious, and this time I had the hojicha pudding. It has a strong roasted green tea flavor and is recommended as a firm pudding.

勝手に認定一人飲み聖地。お一人さまWeb予約OK、お一人さまコース3500円、お一人さま日本酒セット40ml×おまかせ5杯2200円。この時点で★5確定。ただただ至福。名残惜しさに〆注文、ジャコ山椒たまごかけご飯に味噌汁代わりのお出汁、よくぞ日以下略。追加のつもりが込価格になってた。烏森神社前の細路地には居酒屋の神が迷いこんだ店がある。

A certified solo drinking holy place. Web reservations available for one person, course price per person 3500 yen, sake set 40ml x 5 glasses 2200 yen per person. ★5 confirmed at this point. Just bliss. I ended up ordering the rice with Jaco Sansho and egg, and a dashi soup instead of miso soup. The price included the addition. In the narrow alley in front of Karasumori Shrine, there is a shop where the izakaya god wandered into.
