ウオッチメン
Located about 1 minute from Ueno Station exit, this place was chosen for two reasons: 1. All-you-can-drink Super Dry at a yakiniku restaurant. 2. Accepts GOTOEAT digital coupons. However, the visit during snack time may have been a mistake as there was a shortage of staff. Despite 5-7 groups of customers, the service was slow, with a 40-minute wait between dishes. When asked, the dishes were all brought out at once, almost raw, and the staff quickly disappeared. Even though they were setting up the night set right behind us, they did not respond when we pressed the bell. Considering the price, I will not be returning. I made a reservation online and visited a large restaurant with a capacity of 250 seats. Upon arrival in the evening, there were only about 5 groups of customers having lunch menu. We were seated at a box table (a circular table in a pit), which made it difficult to eat. Furthermore, being next to the entrance made it cold. We opted for the drink all-you-can (¥2000) which included Super Dry beer, sparkling wine, highball, and white wine. The food course (Peony ¥8000) included various appetizers, sushi, smoked duck, jamon serrano, salad, grilled vegetables, and fruits. The grilled dishes consisted of beef tongue and shrimp, premium beef ribs and vegetables, truffle harami steak, and grilled sukiyaki. The meal also included beef tongue and vegetable stone-grilled rice, tororo (grated yam), and seaweed soup. The dessert was sesame almond tofu, which was not enjoyable. The Super Dry beer was the highlight of the meal. Overall, the food was mediocre, and the service was lacking.
