A casual izakaya near Sapporo Station! It has a good selection of dishes like liver sashimi (low-temperature cooked), chicken tataki, and seafood tsukune. The seafood tsukune is made from grilled ground fish paste. Liver sashimi, smoked salmon, chicken tataki, and burdock root with cream cheese were all good choices.

I often go to a place with delicious beer for the first round, and then to a place with all-you-can-drink sake for the second round. The sashimi and chicken tataki are delicious, and you can add all-you-can-drink sake for an additional fee. This popular restaurant is always crowded, so I recommend making a reservation. Thank you for the recommendation! (^^)

The restaurant has a sunken floor style interior. I was drawn in by the half-price coupon for assorted sashimi. It cannot be used in conjunction with the half-price meat offer. We sat at a sunken table and enjoyed a lot of food!! The rock seaweed tofu is highly recommended for its generous portion. When it's closing time, the entrance to the building is locked so you have to use the staircase outside!

I had a New Year's party with my colleagues who we couldn't have a year-end party with. We went to an izakaya near Sapporo Station that we like, with delicious food and a wide variety of sake. We ordered a la carte this time. The "Nori Cold Tofu" caught my eye and it was delicious, with a taste of the sea. I started with a "Black Beer" drink. Of course, the "Chicken Tataki" is a must-have dish here, the tenderness is outstanding! I also quietly enjoyed the "Smoked Cheese" and "French Fries," and drank "Sweet Potato Shochu with Water." This time, we opted for the cheaper all-you-can-drink option, so we didn't have any sake, but we were still very satisfied with the delicious food! Thank you for the meal (^o^)

In the lively atmosphere of the year-end party, the employees seemed to be working hard. This restaurant has private rooms which are calming. The food is delicious and the drinks come quickly. I would like to come back again.

Arrived on Saturday at 7:00 PM. Had made a reservation for 2 people on the same day. The place was quite lively, just like my second visit in almost 2 years. I had visited the main building half a year ago. They also serve lunch (weekdays 11:30 AM - 2:00 PM (last order 1:30 PM)). When I mentioned my reservation name (with my companion), the staff initially couldn't find it and I started to worry. Turns out, the reservation had been made, but it was a mistake on the part of the staff... Menu prices now include both tax-exclusive and tax-inclusive prices, unlike my previous visit where only tax-exclusive prices were listed (I had assumed they were tax-inclusive). I used a coupon for the 'All-you-can-drink special with draft beer and a selection of 30 premium Japanese sake' (2500 yen → 1980 yen). Last time it was 1480 yen, but now it's 1480 yen for 24 types of sake. We were served 3 appetizers, shinachiku, simmered beans, and kimpira. For food, we ordered: - Assorted sashimi platter (924 yen each) x 2, featuring bincho maguro, salmon, sea bream, herring, horse mackerel, soy, flounder (2 pieces each), scallop, surf clam (1 piece each), and botan shrimp (1 piece each). I didn't order sashimi last time, but it was all delicious!!! Especially the flounder which had a rich taste! They also provided a special soy sauce that paired well with the white fish. - Fresh chicken tenderloin tataki (638 yen), juicy and chewy! Best enjoyed with soy sauce and yuzu pepper. I wished it had garlic. - Fresh horse sashimi (with ponzu sauce) (1408 yen), chewy and fresh! The one I had at a different izakaya before was too slimy (lol). - Tofu with seaweed (858 yen), a whole block of tofu with fragrant seaweed and a hint of salt, delicious! It can be quite filling, so be careful (lol). - Squid salted guts (528 yen), chewy and rich in flavor! Perfect with grated radish. Another satisfying and delicious experience. The sashimi was of high quality! The total bill was around 4500 yen per person. However, they should double-check reservation names properly... Deducting points for "service". Will definitely come back!

An izakaya located in the basement of a building on the north side of the First Joint Government Building in the north exit area of JR Sapporo Station. I used it for a drinking party with my colleagues. It had been a long time since I last visited, although I had been there once for a drinking party in the past. The place was fully packed on this Friday night, but there were raised seating areas a little further away on the same floor, which were available. The menu was quite extensive with a variety of dishes, with a focus on "seafood" and "Wagyu chicken." This time, we opted for all-you-can-drink alcohol and ordered dishes individually. The all-you-can-drink alcohol package had a wide variety of drinks and was reasonably priced. Since we were a group that preferred drinking a lot without eating much, we only ordered dishes like the one in the photo. Personally, I thought the "Ezo deer 3 types assortment (1,408 yen)" was delicious. The atmosphere in the restaurant was lively with young customers, making it a bit difficult to have a quiet conversation, but overall, the prices were reasonable, making it a good choice for a drinking party.

Three former colleagues gathered in the Sake area. We drank a lot, so my memory is a bit hazy. We had unlimited draft beer and selected 24 types of Japanese sake using a coupon. We also used a coupon for thick-cut beef tongue and ordered two assorted sashimi platters. We also had seared tuna, a three-piece pickled vegetable platter, fried potatoes, and more. We started with a toast with beer and then switched to sake, starting with Daishinshu. I remember having Hakkaisan, Niseko, Minami, and a few others. The thick-cut beef tongue was delicious, and we enjoyed pairing it with the sashimi and sake. It was a happy time filled with nostalgic stories, and before we knew it, time had flown by. Thank you for the meal.

It's been 3 years since I last visited. The private rooms are well-equipped. We ordered drinks and food a la carte. We started with a toast with Premium Malt's beer. We chose the half portion of chicken tataki, dashimaki tamago, and karaage with casbe. The tataki had a great crunchy texture and paired well with the soy sauce and garlic. The karaage had a nice crispy texture with a flavorful cartilage. With over 20 types of sake available for all-you-can-drink, it's perfect for those who want to drink a lot. The quick drink service is also a plus. We finished with mentaiko ochazuke. Thank you for the meal.

The staff at the restaurant today were friendly and provided excellent service. I like that the surveys and menus are handwritten. I had the Negitoro bowl this time. At first, I thought it might be a small portion, but I ended up feeling full after mixing and eating it. The pickles were burdock root, which was not too hard and tasty. The dessert was grapes. I also told my colleagues at work about this restaurant. Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to dining, and I personally would like to visit this place again.

Sapporo Station is a place I don't often visit, but when I do, I like to eat at Apia. This time, I explored the north exit, and I think it's great that they offer lunch even on weekends, and it's only one coin. There are several menu options, and I went for the classic fried chicken. I really like the atmosphere of the restaurant. It has semi-private seating and is softly lit. The sunken kotatsu tables are comfortable. The lunch menu is served promptly, and the presentation is nice. However, the portion of rice is smaller compared to a regular set meal, but it's understandable given the low price. The fried chicken is cooked through, and the vegetables are dressed just right. The taste of the fried chicken may vary depending on personal preference. When dessert was brought to me, I was asked to press a button, and then an English voice announced the table number. Perhaps it's for accommodating foreign guests from nearby business hotels. The air conditioning was just right, not too cold. The set meal came with no miso soup. I added iced coffee, and the total cost was 600 yen.

I found this place while looking for lunch, and decided to visit. I ordered the fried chicken set meal and a drink for only 570 yen. It was really cheap. After a short wait, my meal arrived and overall, it was not bad. However, the fact that smoking is allowed inside made it smell like cigarettes.

Arrived at 6:00 PM on Saturday with a reservation for 2 people. The restaurant has a private room where customers cannot be seen, but it is quite lively. Located near JR Sapporo Station North Exit and Hokkaido University. The main building is located near the Kairakuen Green Park (not visited). The background music is J-pop, with a lot of "Demon Slayer" songs playing (laughs). Used a coupon for a "120-minute all-you-can-drink with 30 types of local sake for 1480 yen". My companion booked for the local sake. The beer served was Premium Malts. The appetizer consisted of 4 small dishes, quite luxurious. The food ordered was: - Wagamo Chicken Tataki (Half) (880 yen): A specialty dish, delicious with a crispy and tender texture, and a flavorful sauce. - Artisan's Rolled Omelette with Dashi (480 yen): Flavorful with a strong dashi taste. - Tsubodai (980 yen): Very fatty and delicious. - Iburi Gakko Cream Cheese (580 yen): Swirl type, thickly sliced with a satisfying texture. - Chicken Karaage (580 yen): 5 pieces, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with a rich flavor. It's definitely "Karaage" and not "Zangi" (laughs) with a strong seasoning. The salad served with it had a dressing with mountain wasabi. Overall, everything was delicious with no disappointments. The bill came to 4000 yen per person, which was reasonable. The staff's service was also good. Will definitely come back!

I chose this place because they offer all-you-can-drink including various types of sake for about 1500 yen. They have private rooms which is important during this season. The staff are friendly and the drinks are served quickly. The food is delicious overall. The menu includes Camembert roast, shrimp and mushroom ajillo, 7 kinds of pickles, ponzu sauce, fresh mackerel sashimi, fried fish cakes, leaf wasabi tsuntsun pickles, cream cheese, etc. The portions are a bit large, but the leaf wasabi tsuntsun pickles were my favorite as they were a bit spicy and paired well with beer or sake. This time I had a light meal because I was still full from lunch, but next time I want to try the meat dishes.

The other day, I visited the sister store on the opposite side of the station, but this time it's a farewell party for a colleague here. What's great is the abundance of all-you-can-drink alcohol. The menu is similar to the sister store (I always say that, don't I (laughs)), but all the dishes are delicious so no problem! The chicken tataki was really good (^-^) It's a really good restaurant for a casual party. The service is also good and I'm satisfied. Thank you for the meal (^o^)

Although we were deployed differently, we gathered together. We are not in the same year, but we are pretty similar! This izakaya is my second visit, but last time, we were so noisy that they had to close the sliding door to shut us up! Haha, we didn't eat much at all... I do remember that the "chicken tataki" was delicious. It was included in this course as well (^-^). The food is decently tasty overall (check the photos). And what made me happiest was that they had "The Premium Malt's (Black)"! I love this beer! This time, we had a calm party and enjoyed delicious food. It seems like this place is focused on chicken dishes, as the zangi was tender and juicy, not too salty, and tasty. Thank you for the meal (^o^).

I often visit this restaurant with colleagues and friends because it's close to my previous workplace. It has become my regular spot. I always order the chicken tataki, which is delicious. I recommend getting the full portion as the half portion may not be enough. It comes with garlic, sliced onions, watercress, and lemon, which all taste great, but the garlic can leave your breath smelling. I suggest going on weekends. Other dishes I enjoy are wagyu sushi, pork rolls with pickled ginger, salted sea squirt, foie gras jelly, and ponzu vinegar. There are many delicious options that pair well with sake. I will definitely be coming back.

A few minutes' walk from Sapporo Station North Exit, this restaurant is located in the basement of a building that houses Sekoma. Despite the ongoing pandemic, we used this place for a gathering with friends. As the number of infections is increasing, we opted for a private room and a restaurant with thorough infection control measures, which made us feel safe. We reserved an 8-course meal including sashimi, chicken tataki, and dessert. All dishes were served individually as part of the infection control measures, which was reassuring. The restaurant's specialty, the chicken tataki, was served with a special soy sauce. The combination of fragrant tataki and sweet soy sauce was exquisite, and everyone present praised it as an outstanding dish. However, the highlight was the all-you-can-drink option. With the premium plan, we could enjoy beers like Premium and Premium Black, as well as sake like Dassai and Yukinomera, and the service was incredibly fast from ordering to serving! The staff's service was excellent, and we were very satisfied with the experience, especially considering the price was under 4,000 yen.
