I finally got to visit a place I've been wanting to try, where there are no likes or dislikes, and I'm up for any challenge. It's a standing bar with a time limit of 30 minutes and a maximum of 2 drinks. With these conditions, the turnover is good, and even in a short time, I felt it was worth visiting. The only choices available are beer, sake, and wine, which was a bit tough for me as a lightweight drinker, but my main focus was on the food, so I pushed myself to choose sake. I tried a local sake from Chiba called "OCEAN NINETY NINE," which was sweet and they generously poured it for 500 yen. The appetizers I tried were "Mouka no Hoshi," "Ei no Kimo," "Shirako Ponzu," and "Kanisoku." Each priced at 500 yen, except for the special year-end "Kanisoku" which was 1000 yen. The "Mouka no Hoshi" had a crunchy texture, the "Ei no Kimo" melted in the mouth instantly, the "Shirako Ponzu" was slightly grilled and well-seasoned, and the year-end special "Kanisoku" had plenty of meat and was definitely worth the price. I'm grateful for encountering crab before the end of the year.

I had sake, a combination of oysters and sashimi as a side dish. I requested a dry sake and that's what they served me. The restaurant mainly had regular customers, but they were friendly and welcoming to me as a newcomer. Both the sake and the side dishes were satisfying and delicious.

I went to Uogusa-san ☆.｡.:*・ Ordered: ▷▶︎▷◆Bottled beer ¥500- ◆Today's sashimi platter ¥500- ◆Enagawa yukke ¥500- Located a 5-minute walk from Ueno Station, near Ameyoko.

Uogusa Ueno Hello, it's Mogusuke! The password is "Delicious is 0 calories!" Today's post is about my visit to the popular standing seafood bar "Uogusa" in Ameyoko. They offer super thick crab legs for 1000 yen, and assorted sashimi for 500 yen, making it a great value for a standing bar. The shark heart with sesame oil and garlic is a must-try, as it's incredibly delicious! The thick crab legs are so fresh and chewy, it's truly delicious! Remember, delicious is 0 calories! On this day, I went on a drinking tour from Ueno to Noge, visiting "Uogusa" -> "Gonogon" -> "Motsuyaki Otonba" -> "Kushiage Kanoya". I will introduce them separately later. If you ever visit Ueno, be sure to stop by! - Budget per person: ¥1500 - Location: Ameyoko Plaza, 6-10-7 Ueno, Taito-ku, Tokyo - Nearest station: 5-minute walk from Ueno Station - Taste rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Atmosphere rating: ⭐️⭐️ - Price rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mogusuke's recommended usage: - Solo: ✔️ - Small group drinking: ✔️ - Drinking party: ❌ - First date: ❌ - 5th date or later: ✔️ - Group date: ❌ - Celebration: ❌

The outdoor standing bar is always crowded even though it's past 5 PM on weekdays. The sign says "30 minutes max," which is actually a good cash-on style. The liver of the grilled whale was impressive, with just the right amount of salt and butter. It was my first time trying the whale's fin part.

While playing in Ueno, I felt like eating delicious fish for lunch, so I decided to visit this restaurant. It was very busy, with a lively atmosphere. I ordered stingray liver sashimi and sake. The texture melted in my mouth, and I had the opportunity to taste something delicious and rare. I would like to visit again.

It was my first time experiencing standing drinking at a semi-outdoor setting. Since it was standing drinking, I couldn't relax and take my time, but it was still a lot of fun, considering the atmosphere. The food was delicious, especially the raw beef liver sashimi was amazing. They only had water as a non-alcoholic option, so for those who don't like alcohol, it seems like they'll have to make do.

I received a menu of seared enagawa, yukke, madai sashimi, and bonito tataki sashimi, along with bottled beer. I went for a day drinking session in Ueno with my friend who loves drinking. It was fun to have a daytime drink after a long time! This place is a hidden gem where you have to finish your drink within 30 minutes. First, we ordered drinks - bottled beer, shochu, and sake were available, so we started with bottled beer for a toast. We drank quickly and checked out the fish. I love white fish, so I ordered madai, while my friend ordered bonito. The fish was cut right in front of us and served immediately. It was so beautiful! Once it's gone, it's gone, so it's a privilege to be there early. Also, the yukke made with enagawa was amazing. I was mesmerized by the deliciously fatty enagawa. I recommend going on a drinking tour in Ueno!

Ebisu beer for 500 yen + bonito sashimi for 500 yen = 1000 yen at a standing izakaya in Ameyoko, Ueno. It's a pay-first, no appetizer place with a simple menu focusing on fish dishes and mainly serving sake. The stay time is up to 30 minutes (not strictly enforced) and limited to 2 drinks per person, so the turnover rate seems fast. Anything not priced separately is 500 yen, making it easy to calculate. Since it was scorching hot, I avoided hot sake and grilled fish, opting for beer and sashimi to wrap up quickly. The Ebisu bottle for 500 yen may be a good deal. The liberating feeling of standing and drinking is the best. Just 1000 yen for 2 items, what a transparent billing system. It's a great place to have a quick drink when you need to kill some time.

Under the Ueno elevated railway, there's a place called "Uoshio" in Ueno. It's great for solo drinking, with a limit of 2 drinks in 30 minutes. There was a bit of a wait, but I was seated quickly. Almost everything is 500 yen and cash only. I had 3 fresh oysters for 400 yen, a sashimi platter for 500 yen, and 2 bottled beers for 500 yen each. In the end, I was out in 15 minutes. It's a good business model and I want to go back with friends. The oysters and sashimi were delicious! Thank you for the meal~♪

Stay for 30 minutes‼️ A delightful seafood standing bar in Ameyoko‼️ Located in the main street of Ameyoko at Ueno Station, ▪️Uosou Sauna is in a fiercely competitive area. Perfect for a quick stop after enjoying activities in the vicinity. It has only two counter seats in a L-shape, and orders are prepaid. You can easily enjoy authentic seafood dishes like boiled crab and ikura donburi. The menu changes depending on the availability of ingredients, so you can enjoy fresh options every time. This time, we had ▪️sashimi platter, ▪️engawa yukke, and ▪️octopus suckers with chilled sake. It was still a bit hot due to the weather, so a portable fan was essential. The seafood chilled sake, enjoyed in a festive atmosphere, created a special experience where you could savor the extraordinary. I would love to visit again in between other plans‼️ Thank you for the meal‼️‼️ #Foodie #Foodstagram #FoodieGirl #FoodieWanted #FoodieClub #TokyoFood #TokyoFoodMap

This is a standing bar that I always visit when I go to Ueno. You can enjoy fresh seafood dishes for almost 500 yen, and the stingray liver and shark heart are especially delicious! There are several types of sake available, and they generously pour it for only 500 yen, making it a great deal (*^^*)

Visit date: August 12, 2023, 12:00 PM Ordered items: Please refer to the photos! It's been a while since I visited Kaoruko, a cost-effective seafood standing bar. It's no surprise that there's already a line before opening! We lined up as well and I think we were fifth in line. Please see the photos of the food and drinks we ordered! We also ordered fresh whitebait, but I forgot to take a photo of it! The beer is meant to be drunk quickly! Please enjoy it heartily! While they also recommend sake, I decided to avoid it as there's a risk of getting too drunk. The prices have gone up slightly compared to before, but the cost performance is excellent. However, it's too hot to stay for long in the summer! The stay at the restaurant is limited to 30 minutes, so please be aware of that! Thank you for the meal!

On this day, I went to Ameyoko in Ueno for drinks in the afternoon! I had a sashimi platter and fresh ankimo with sake! I love ankimo, but I didn't know there was fresh ankimo... It was incredibly delicious! The aroma of ankimo and the texture of shirako! It was a moment of discovering a new "favorite food"! I will definitely visit again!

We casually dropped by the popular "Uogashi" in Ameyoko with my wife for a quick standing drink. The place is always crowded, so the rule is limited to 30 minutes and 2 drinks per person. We enjoyed Ebisu bottled beer (small) for 500 yen each. The small bottles are convenient for standing drinks and hygienic in a busy place like Ameyoko. We also tried the Miyagi saltwater sea urchin for 800 yen, which had the authentic taste of sea urchin without any additives. The thick crab legs for 1000 yen were actually from horsehair crabs, not snow crabs. They were delicious and sweet, comparable to snow crab. After enjoying the crab legs with another round of Ebisu beer, we had to leave as our 2 drinks were finished. It was a great experience and the food was delicious.

When it comes to lunch in Ameyoko, Fishsow is the place to go! Enjoy rare seafood delicacies with sake that you can't easily find elsewhere. Fresh oysters, monkfish liver, skate liver sashimi, cherry salmon, and grilled fish in Kyoto style are all delicious choices. Pair them with sake for a perfect combination. Ueno, Fishsow, sake, standing bar.

I used the Youth 18 ticket to go on a mountain climbing trip to Mt. Tanigawa in Gunma Prefecture. On the way there and back, I explored gourmet food. I have visited a standing seafood bar called "Uosou" in Ameyoko, Ueno, several times before, but I always arrived just before closing time (7:30 pm) and couldn't place a last order because it was full. This time, I finally visited before 7 pm, so I managed to get a seat and place an order. I ordered a sashimi platter with three types (Indian tuna, cherry salmon, red sea bream for a total of 500 yen), a set of fresh oysters (1,000 yen), stingray liver sashimi (800 yen), star of monkfish liver (500 yen), a small bottle of Ebisu beer (500 yen), and sake (500 yen). I also wanted to try their famous salmon roe bowl, but unfortunately, it was sold out. Everything was fresh, lively, and delicious, but the stingray liver sashimi and star of monkfish liver were exotic. The stingray liver sashimi was still in a solid frozen state when served, but it turned into a creamy texture over time. It had a rich, buttery taste, full of flavor and richness. The "star of monkfish liver" had a texture and taste similar to beef liver sashimi, surprising me. Also, the Ebisu beer was served without a glass, so I ended up drinking it straight from the bottle. It was a nostalgic experience after many years, reminding me of my younger days, and for some reason, it moved me.

Ueno's standing bar! It's a bit small, but since it's a standing bar, you can drink quickly! The seafood at this place is delicious! Especially the ankimoto oysters were tasty! You can choose from sake or beer for drinks. They served me a sake that suited my taste!

A must-visit shop when you come to Ameyoko. They have unique menu items, so it's interesting! I was happy to try the surf clam sashimi for the first time. I enjoyed a bottle of beer here. You can only have up to two drinks, so you need to think carefully before ordering, or else you might regret not choosing sake instead. Thank you for the meal!

The recent trend for leisurely walks and drinks on holidays is at Ameyoko, Uokusa, and their affiliated store diagonally across. A sign at Uokusa's storefront reads, "Up to 2 drinks, 30 minutes." So, maybe a small bottle of Ebisu beer and a glass of sake? At the affiliated store the other day, I felt like having a bit more to drink. Today's snacks were boiled crab and fresh sea urchin. The crab went well with Ebisu, but as soon as I took a bite of the fresh Sanriku sea urchin, I immediately ordered sake. I asked for a dry, rice-like junmai sake, and they brought me "Shinano Tsuru," which paired perfectly with the sea urchin. Oh, they also had Narita's "Fudo" that I've been enjoying lately. I'll have to try that next time. Everyone seems to eat and drink quickly, and the wait time isn't too long. I think I'll come back for another walk soon.

I have been a regular at this standing bar where I often stop by on my way home. Since the outbreak of the coronavirus, the number of tourists has increased, and Ameyoko is crowded. In the past, I used to pass by without stopping much. This time, I started drinking early and had a second drink, so I had no problem getting in. First, I ordered the usual Ebisu bottled beer. There were several types of fish on the menu that day, but this time I chose the otoro (fatty tuna). The taste was delicious with the rich flavor of the fat. The fish here is always fresh and tasty. I wanted to drink sake as well, but for the first half of my bar-hopping, I decided to quickly enjoy a drink and move on to the third bar... Ooyama.
