"Richly imaginative cooking and aged sake co-star in this culinary production. Delivered fresh from producers with whom the owner-chef has close relationships, ingredients are seasoned with salted rice malt, fish sauce and fermented wasabi. Spices are applied in meat dishes, and curries are on offer. With ingenious twists and tricks, he strikes up synergies between his dishes and aged sake. With its unique flavours and aromas, the fare at Arakicho Rokkan leaves a lasting impression." - Michelin Inspector

Our favourite izakaya by far! We even left Piss Alley to come back here for a 2nd night in a row as we felt so welcomed! No tourist trap, no hidden costs! Their special drink is a frozen lemon highball where you literally get a glass full of frozen lemons and whiskey! Oishi! Sit at the bar and soak in the atmosphere, some salary men might even pluck up a conversation with you!

(Translated by Google) 🌠 "A treasure trove of old sake, a store that is irresistible for old sake lovers" An izakaya run by a husband and wife who have an unusual career as a former doctor. It's a counter-centered shop, and the prices are reasonable. In particular, the knowledge of fermented foods and the dishes that are based on that knowledge are exquisite! A space where you can relax and enjoy sake. 20171030 (Original) 🌠「古酒の宝庫、古酒好きには、たまらない店」元、お医者様っと言う変わった経歴を持つ主人が夫婦で営む居酒屋。カウンター中心のお店で、値段もリーズナブル。特に、発酵食品に関する知識と、それを元に実践した料理は、絶品！ゆるりとお酒を楽しめる空間。 20171030

(Translated by Google) It is a relaxing meal. A lot of aged sake! It was cheap enough that I thought it was wrong ... (Original) ほっこりするお食事です。熟成日本酒がたくさん！お会計間違ってるのかと思うほど安かった…

(Translated by Google) The dishes made with seasonal ingredients are really delicious. You can drink sake with only homemade wasabi. One of my favorite stores in town. But reservations are required. (Original) 旬の食材に一手間加えたお料理が本当に美味しい。自家製こだわりのわさびだけでお酒が飲める。都内でもっとも好きな店の１つ。でも予約は必須。

酒は大関心意気

SerpAPI

(Translated by Google) A place for sticking sake and mesmerizing sake. It's a counter-only space, but it also has the character of the shopkeeper, and it also encourages conversations between strangers. It is quite reasonable. (Original) こだわりの日本酒とめくるめく酒のあて。カウンターのみの空間ですが、店主の人柄もあり、知らない人同士の会話も弾みます。かなりリーズナブルです。

(Translated by Google) A small Japanese sake shop in Arakicho, Yotsuya. The atmosphere isn't bad, and the food is delicious, but there are many regular customers, and I think it's difficult for first-timers to get along. (Updated in July 2018) (Original) 四谷荒木町にあるこじんまりとした日本酒のお店。雰囲気も悪くはないし、料理も美味しいとは思いますが、常連客が多く、一見さんが馴染むのは難しいように思います。（2018年7月変更追記）
