My oh my... That pastrami sandwich was all you could've ever dreamed of. I had the double, which you should as well, and it came with a mountain of thick-cut fatty wagyu pastrami slices that were melt in your mouth tender. There isn't much sauce, but that's because you'll want to savour the natural beef juices from the glorious pastrami. The bun is nicely buttered, toasted, and soft. I also ordered a single cheeseburger, which managed to hold its own alongside the glorious pastrami. The beef patty was juicy, well-seasoned, and topped with a healthy amount of cheese. Like the pastrami, condiments and toppings on the cheeseburger are kept simple to allow you to savour the wonderful natural beef flavour.
All things considered, this has to be the greatest pastrami sandwich I've ever had, and definitely in my top 5 burger joints of all time. Do be sure to come early just as they open as they only serve 10 pastrami sandwiches a day!
Update:
Revisited for lunch on 12 June and had the pastrami burger (large) with lunch set add-on consisting of fries and a drink for ~550yen. The pastrami burger is now much more expensive, with less meats as previously. Before, it was ~4,400 yen for the double pastrami, but now they have added a "large" size that goes for that price, and the double which now goes for ~5,900yen. Granted, the economy is not in the best of shape, but I still think the price may be a little off-putting to many customers now as there is less meat in the large compared to the double but is the same price as before the double before the introduction of the large category. On another note, I'm not sure why they don't serve onion rings for the lunch set, as the fries I got were soaked in oil. Although they were hot and crispy, it felt really hard to eat given all the grease that still remained in the fries (see picture). Furthermore, there seems to be more air than potato in the fries, which is not a good sign. I think they should switch to wedges. Lastly, the portion of fries was also quite little. As they are shoestring fries, a handful will not suffice. I hope they rectify this french fry situation. Overall, it is still a tasty pastrami burger, but the price and the fries leaves room for improvement.
