Yataiya Hakata Theater Kinshicho Store August 23, 2023 Yataiya Hakata Theater Kinshicho Store Location: 2-13-6 Edogashi, Sumida-ku, Tokyo, Miyagawa Building 1-2F Phone: 03-6659-9400 Business hours: Dinner 16:00-24:00 Regular holiday: Irregular holiday On this day, I missed the timing for breakfast and lunch, so I decided to have dinner before the Kinshicho drinking party in the evening haha. I was able to visit Hakata Theater without a reservation this time. It was early in the evening, so it was not crowded, lucky me! The recommended dish of the day was stuffed bell peppers with spicy miso? I decided to order two just to try. Lately, these kinds of dishes have been increasing. Ordering with my own smartphone, but my phone is usually in low-speed mode, so I often can't place orders; I should have asked about the shop's Wi-Fi. The appetizer was salted kombu cabbage, and I upgraded to a large portion for the same price. Hakata Theater is really a great deal! The spicy bell peppers have arrived! It was spicier than I expected, delicious but spicy. One would have been enough for me (I'm not good with spicy food). Next is the refreshing vinegar motsu with yuzu pepper, which adds a nice accent. Mixing a bit of the spicy bell pepper filling makes it just the right flavor. Delicious! The cola highball was also delicious, but the cola portion was too much, so I ended up drinking it without ordering a refill. That concludes my "breakfast" (in the evening)! I was a bit tipsy before the drinking party. Thank you for the meal!

I felt like eating iron pot dumplings, so I went to have some. When you come here, the first thing to do is to order the iron pot dumplings. They serve you freshly grilled hot dumplings along with yuzu pepper, which is the standard at this restaurant. The crispy texture and juicy deliciousness of the filling are outstanding here. The restaurant offers a challenge where if you eat 100 iron pot dumplings, you get them for free! I think I can handle 100 dumplings, but I'm hesitant to try it. To finish off the day, I chose Hakata ramen. The creamy and mild pork bone soup has a very smooth mouthfeel, and the red ginger and garlic oil add depth to the flavor. Since actual Hakata pork bone ramen can be quite strong, they have probably adjusted the flavor here.

When it comes to Hakata Gekijo, the iron pot gyoza is a must-try. Lately, I've had more opportunities to eat their gyoza, and the sign does not lie - the gyoza here is always delicious. The skin is crispy, the filling is juicy, and it's hot and flavorful from being cooked in the iron pot. Enjoy the gyoza with yuzu pepper or sauce. Whenever I see the shop, I crave their iron pot gyoza. I ordered 3 servings, and it disappeared in no time. The crispy skin and the spiciness of the yuzu pepper make for an amazing combination. Since it takes time to cook, it's best to order extra as soon as you sit down. Hakata Gekijo is always bustling no matter which shop you go to. It's amazing how they can create such a lively atmosphere everywhere. I'd like to try the challenge of eating 100 gyoza there someday.

I visited a restaurant in Tokyo that serves Hakata gourmet dishes during weekday dinner time. They have table seats, counter seats, and even a second floor for seating options. The fried gyoza skin topped with seared mentaiko is amazing. From the classic sesame mackerel to grilled skewers, they also offer a huge 1L highball drink which is very satisfying. In October, the staff will be dressed in Halloween costumes for a fun experience. If you are in the area, please make sure to visit this place at least once! Here are some menu items: sesame mackerel, seared mentaiko potato salad, pork belly, chicken skin, Hakata negi roll, shiitake mushroom tsukune, black maiboku tempura, shrimp avocado stick, and a huge 1L highball. I hope this information is helpful, and I appreciate your support with likes and follows. I will continue to share more local information, so please stay tuned for more updates. Thank you!

Located a 5-minute walk from the south exit of Kinshicho Station on the JR Sobu Line in Sumida-ku, Tokyo. ★First visit on August 16, 2022★ This restaurant is along the road of Kinshicho OIOI. It's already mid-August, so it gets dark after 6:00 PM. The bright outdoor lights of the restaurant make it stand out. I entered around 6:30 PM on a Tuesday. About 50% of the seats were taken by other customers. By the time I left, it was about 90% full. The long and narrow interior has counter seats surrounding the kitchen, as well as table seats along the walls and towards the back. I like that there are many counter seats in this restaurant. The background music is festival music and the voices of customers!! It seems like wherever you go, the voices of customers are loud, which is a unique feature! Today's customers seem to be mostly men and women who were a bit wild in the past (laughs). The staff at all the branches are young, and especially the female staff members look similar in appearance, maybe it's because of my age (laughs). Hakata specialty Sesame Mackerel ★★★★★ 680 yen (excluding tax) Really delicious~♪♪ Mackerel with sesame dressing... I love it!! The combination of seaweed and wakame is excellent♪ Fried kibinago ★★★★ 480 yen (excluding tax) This is my first time trying it. Since it's fish, I thought it might be a bit tough, but overall it's tender and easy to eat♪ Oden assortment ★★★★ 550 yen (excluding tax) The light broth has a gentle taste and is delicious♪ Kanto is known for its hard water, so the katsuobushi dashi that brings out a strong flavor is a characteristic, but once you've experienced the light taste of western Japan, you can't go back to Kanto!! I thought oden in this season might be strange, but it was the right choice♪ Horse sashimi ★★★★★ 750 yen (excluding tax) I still prefer red meat. The moderate firmness is irresistible~♪ I eat it with ginger and garlic as condiments. I've been enjoying it with ginger lately. (Summer Special Free Drink) Rich Tomato Highball ★★★ 0 yen It doesn't seem that rich to me (laughs), but the taste of tomato comes through, so if you think of it as tomato juice, it's rich♪ In the campaign until the end of August, when the temperature exceeds 30 degrees, you get a free designated drink!! It seems that being a member and declaring it are the conditions. (VIP) Large Sour in a 1-liter glass ★★★★ 390 yen (excluding tax) The 1-liter glass is filled with so much ice that you can't really feel like you're drinking (laughs). It would be better to order beer, but since it's in a 1-liter glass, it gets warm and difficult to drink in the middle... (sweat) If you become a member, from the third visit onwards, you can get a free cheers drink. (Member appetizer) Kombu cabbage ★★★★ 0 yen When you become a member, the appetizer is free. The appetizer is only kombu cabbage, but it's quite delicious♪ It's all-you-can-eat!! This restaurant also plans many other campaigns, and each time they offer a free drink, which is quite nice. Bring sunglasses~ or a tie~ or a certificate~ and get a free drink? It's too good of a deal to get a free drink by bringing something you already have at home!!

Food Stall House Hakata Theater Kinshicho Store Birthday Gyoza Service July 29, 2022 Food Stall House Hakata Theater Kinshicho Store Address: Miyagawa Building 1-2F, 2-13-6 Eitai-bashi, Sumida-ku, Tokyo Phone: 03-6659-9400 Business hours: 16:00-24:00 Regular holiday: Irregular holiday On this day, it was my 52nd birthday. This restaurant offers a gyoza service based on the age of the person celebrating their birthday (before or after). By using the restaurant's app, you can enjoy advantages such as free appetizers on your first visit and free birthday coupons from the next visit onwards. The staff will assist you with the app, making it easy even for those with poor eyesight. The birthday gyoza was decorated with fireworks, making it a fun experience. The staff and other customers joined in singing "Happy Birthday" and clapping, which was very heartwarming. Thank you! I was initially concerned about being able to eat 52 gyoza, but since they were bite-sized, it was no problem at all. I ended up eating too much of everything else as well. The reserved seat with a cute plate was a nice touch. The staff took a photo for me, and I was able to enjoy Ramune sour and Shaka Shaka Potato, where the staff shakes the potato for you. The restaurant has a staff popularity vote, and I cast my vote for the staff member who served me! The gyoza was delicious, and the Donguri (quail egg), Senmai (pork intestine), and negi (green onion) salad were also tasty. The beer and Ume Ichirin one-cup sake from Chiba were delightful. It was an international experience to have Chiba sake in Hakata at Kinshicho. The cola for the Cola Highball was Pepsi, which was a pleasant surprise! Thank you for the delicious meal! I look forward to coming back for other people's birthdays as well. I also want to try the all-you-can-drink highball at the affiliated store, Ramu-chan.

I made a reservation for the weekend and visited the restaurant. I was able to make a reservation through Tabelog. I participated in a personal challenge, the eating contest. I arrived at the restaurant with an empty stomach. Inside the restaurant, there were many signatures of those who had completed the challenge displayed. I was excited at the thought of my name being added to the list. Since it takes time to cook 100 dumplings (for 2 people), I waited for about 30 minutes after being informed. Finally, the dumplings arrived! The size of the iron pot got me really excited! The dumplings at Hakata Gekijo are on the smaller side. Having done some research beforehand, I started eating with the intention to win. The first 10 or so were delicious while hot, and I tried different flavors with the next 10. As I continued, my stomach started to feel full and the oiliness became heavy, so my pace slowed down... My husband managed to finish all 100 dumplings! Unfortunately, I could only eat 50. When I asked if I could take the leftovers home, I was told it was not allowed. The food was so good that it felt like a waste to throw it away. If you can finish all the dumplings, you get them for free and a one-year free dumpling voucher! If you can't finish, it costs about 5,000 yen. Considering the amount, it might actually be a good deal... (laughs) The drink cost was separate. This eating challenge will probably be my first and last, but it was a valuable experience. I would like to visit again for a regular meal. (laughs) Likelihood of revisiting: ○ Evaluation at the time of visit: 3.10

I made a reservation for the weekend and visited the restaurant. The name of the restaurant includes "Yataiya," so the atmosphere was lively and full of energy with lots of customers. It's relatively cheap to drink from early on, so it gets really lively during peak times. The food and the staff's service were excellent! The gyoza dumplings were a specialty and tasted delicious with yuzu pepper. This visit was actually a preview for the 100 gyoza challenge. Since each gyoza is small, I think I can make it to 100 if I try my best! The teppan plate was very hot, so I had to be careful not to burn myself while eating. During the preview, I had a mouth sore and it stung, so I need to get myself in good condition for the challenge day... (laughs) The staff member who served the food also kindly advised me that other ways of eating are also delicious. Other dishes that were delicious were the corn tempura and the liver sashimi! Even though it's a chain restaurant, I really liked it! This time, I sat on the second floor, but maybe I can enjoy a leisurely meal at the counter seats on the first floor. I'll do my best for the 100 gyoza challenge next time!! Visit rating: 3.16

Yataiya Hakata Gekijo Kinshicho Store Located in: Miyagawa Building 1-2F, 2-13-6 Edobashi, Sumida-ku, Tokyo Phone: 03-6659-9400 Business Hours: Dinner 16:00-24:00 Closed on: Irregular holidays Due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, business hours and regular holidays may differ. Please check with the store before visiting. The izakayas in Kinshicho were all crowded and it was hard to get in. "Yataiya Hakata Gekijo Kinshicho Store" was also crowded, and we barely managed to get in. It was the Halloween event at the restaurant that day. The staff were dressed up and serving customers. I didn't see any customers dressed up, so I thought maybe I should have dressed up as JAGUAR too. A black and white striped lady mainly came to our table. I wonder what character she was supposed to be? There were also people dressed as Kiki's Delivery Service, Pokemon, and Disney characters. This restaurant offers great deals on food and drinks if you install their app. While installing the app, my phone fell and the app stopped working. The staff quickly took care of everything for me. For now, beer. Cheers for two! Another person joined us a little late. Cabbage appetizer is all-you-can-eat. When it runs out, the staff brings a new one. The second drink was a highball. There is Suntory Kakubin and Jim Beam, but Jim Beam is a little cheaper so I chose Jim Beam. A huge highball. It's really huge! The skewer platter was delicious. The beer is also huge! A comparison photo of the huge highball, huge hot sake, and regular highball. It's great that it's huge! It was a very delicious and enjoyable time. I felt like I wanted to accumulate points with the app, so I will come back again. Thank you for the meal!

It's the end of the year, but I went to a place I had never been before. I ordered 100 dumplings! The quality of the dumplings was really good. I was worried that they might be overcooked with so many, but it turned out to be unfounded. They were all perfectly hot and delicious. The dipping sauce, chili paste, and yuzu pepper provided for flavor variation were also delicious. In addition, I was impressed by the paper mask holder and the attentive explanation from the staff. I will definitely go back.

This is a great restaurant in Hakata known for its delicious dishes, especially the gyoza, with amazing value for money. When I first visited a year and a half ago, I was recommended to join their app membership for a fee of 200 yen. Since then, I get free appetizers every time I visit, starting from the second visit, which is incredible! Also, app members can enjoy gyoza for only 130 yen on the 13th of every month. I recently visited again this month and as we always order at least 6 servings of gyoza, we always have a great time on Gyoza Day. There are other great deals too, like getting 100 gyoza after visiting 10 times, or getting to eat your age in gyoza during your birthday month. Apart from gyoza, their other menu items are also delicious and affordable. I highly recommend their skewers and oden. The skewers include classic yakitori as well as seasonal creative skewers. The oden has a tasty broth that keeps me coming back for more. The atmosphere in the restaurant is lively and welcoming, making it a great place to dine. If I had known about this place during my college days, I would have definitely wanted to work here!笑

I visited Nishi-Kasai today for the second time. When I have a drinking party in Nishi-Kasai, I always end up at the reliable cost-effective Hakata Theater. For my first drink, I had a huge highball in a jumbo glass, and for snacks, I had chilled tomatoes and the newly added white shrimp. Honestly, the white shrimp... I still prefer the chewy type. Thank you for the meal.

I had a drinking party in the Kinshicho area, so we went to the reliable Hakata Theater. Ordered three Hakachiki for 150 yen each, two chicken skins for 150 yen each, and potato butter, among other things. Even just the Hakachiki alone brought a high level of satisfaction! We enjoyed our meal tonight as well. Thank you for the feast.

I came to Kinshicho for two days in a row, so tonight I decided to go bar hopping and enjoy some draft beer at a great cost performance spot, Hakata Gekijo! A 1-liter draft beer for 600 yen is the best deal. It was another night of great cost performance. Thank you for the meal.

First stop in Kinshicho: Kinshicho Horumon Tengu 2nd Branch Second stop: After finishing eating yakiniku, I wanted to drink a little more, so I visited here. As always, great cost performance! You can drink a huge mug of draft beer for 600 yen. The best! It was delicious again tonight. Thank you for the meal.

From Kamata to Kinshicho First stop: Kangei Honten Second stop: Shunkaen Third stop: Kanaharu Honten Fourth stop: Niihao Honten Fifth stop: Kochira We had a drinking party in Kinshicho at night, so we used these restaurants. They were all reliable choices. The food was delicious as always. Thank you for the meal.

First stop in Kinshicho: Motsuyaki Nonki Kinshicho branch Second stop: We used it for a drink after Nonki. As expected, being a VIP member means that the appetizers are free, and even if you order the large size of the Dekashi series as your first drink, you only pay the regular size price, so it's a great deal. Also, they had new autumn menu items! The burdock chips were delicious! The beer was also delicious today. Thank you for the meal.

Kinshicho development Today is a drinking party, so I went to Hakata Theater, which I have been using quite often lately. <Order> Vinegared motsu (offal) Donkuri Grilled liver Pork belly Beef intestines stir-fry Fried chicken Fried potatoes Jumbo draft beer I became a VIP member at Hakata Theater, which means - Free appetizer - Cheaper first drink (even if you order the jumbo size, you can drink it at the regular size price), so it's a good deal. The beef intestines today had less fat in the small intestine, which was a bit disappointing... However, the other dishes were delicious as usual. Thank you for the meal.

I often go to the Hakata Theater in Kinshicho and today I used it because I had business in this area. This shop has its own unique menu! Everything was delicious. Thank you for the meal.

▼Overall, the service was excellent! A cheap, delicious, and lively izakaya▼Background for choosing this restaurant: I was craving their iron plate gyoza▼Location: About a 5-minute walk from Kinshicho Station▼What I ate: Iron plate gyoza, grilled chicken skin, etc.▼Date and time of visit: Saturday around 5:30 pm▼Service level: The staff moved briskly, so there was hardly any stress in ordering. The membership app, available for about 300 yen on the first visit, makes appetizers free on subsequent visits, making it worth buying if you plan to come back. They pour Hoppy and shochu until you say stop, so be careful not to spill. Gyoza Day once a month is super crowded, so reservations are a must.▼Taste impressions: The overall quality is like a typical izakaya, maybe slightly better, but they serve hot dishes still hot, making everything taste great. The menu can satisfy you even if you're hungry or have already eaten elsewhere. Personal recommendations are the iron plate gyoza and grilled chicken skin. The sauce for the chicken skin is a bit too sweet, so I recommend trying it with salt.
