Sakaeya

With the enticing aroma of freshly fried chicken and crisp cutlets drifting from the entrance, Sakaeya stands as an inviting neighborhood fixture. The storefront menu offers a broad lineup that makes it easy to linger over choices, from the staple fried chicken bento to ginger pork, mixed fried items, and easy-going selections like the classic nori bento or the hearty Nori Kara Special. Combining crisp fried sides with hot steamed rice, these meals provide dependable, satisfying fare for everyday dining.

Evening drinks and leisurely bites

Come nightfall, the shop takes on the atmosphere of a casual bar, offering a welcoming retreat well into the later hours. Patrons can wash down the day with draft beer, crisp lemon sours, fruit-tinged specialty sours, or a glass of whisky. Unwinding with casual small plates such as classic red wieners, fried chicken cartilage, or rich mackerel simmered in miso makes for an easygoing way to spend an evening.
