About this place
Once you have taken a seat, look out for the day's specials written on the board. Alongside the regular menu, it lists recommended seafood dishes and sashimi assortments, with the chance to try different fish from day to day. The easygoing izakaya style suits an evening of drinks and assorted kushikatsu, followed by chicken rice porridge in a flavourful broth.
Ichichu is also a reassuring choice when you want a proper meal, not just snacks to accompany drinks. The menu includes a pork ginger stir-fry set meal, vegetable stir-fry and grilled fish set meals, as well as fried rice. Drinks range from draft and bottled beer to lemon and pickled-plum sours, highballs, large-carafe sake and chilled sake. A bottle shared among friends makes for an unhurried evening.
The welcoming atmosphere and relaxed pace make this a comfortable spot for families as well as a place popular with people from the neighbourhood. It is open from 17 until 24 late in the evening and closed on Tuesdays. Reservations are accepted, making it an easy option after work or for a weekend drink and a simple, satisfying meal.
