Stabler Shimokitazawa Meatsand

Summary, good sandwich: yes. Worth the wait or travel: no. Small place with 8 seats. Order from QR code (bit overkill for small place, when take away orders are at the counter). Sandwich was good, but like others said, meat was a little tough. Taste was ok to good for the price. But only go in if your are browsing around the area and there is space available to dine in. Not worth the queue or travel.

Best street food you can get in Tokyo. The sandwiches are really good and the employees are super nice. The vibe inside is great with street music and decorations. Definitely worth going there intentionally !

It was wow! I was doubting that sandwiches would look exactly like in the pictures. But they do!!! It was absolutely delicious! Very fast, it took them about 5 minutes to prepare my order. There’s cheese meat small size at the pictures.

Kinda-sorta flavorful sandwich, disappointingly "ruined" by the incredible toughness of the meat. Coffee was warmed up coffee. There's potential, but to me this was brutally mid food. Pickle was good.

The sandwich was great, especially the meat. If you're a spicy enthusiasts like myself, I would discourage you from ordering the sandwich marked as the spiciest, because the only special treatment it gets is a bunch of ordinary grounded chilly dusted on top of the meat when everything is done cooking (or maybe it was cayenne pepper). The flavor of the original one was better so I'd recommend that. I would also suggest to not be on a schedule when coming here, because they are understaffed and it took around 45 minutes to get seated and get our order.

Really love the food here. The sandwich was well-seasoned and not too buttery. Still crispy. The meat is the star ⭐️ We ordered the cajun and hot Mexican and I love both. Perfectly cooked, not too tough and chewy. I love the Cajun as it was not too spicy and just right amount of salt. But the hot Mexican is really spicy so if you’re looking for something to spice up, this is the one! I was full even though I ordered half only. Highly recommended to try if you’re in the area!

Almost everytime I am in Shimo-kitazawa，I think about this place. It was drizzling, waited less than 15 minutes. The new steak with chilies was not hot at all, tasted good. They were keeping the standard with the other 2 sandwiches. A really nice break after walking a while in the rain. Just the place is a bit small.

The steak is well cooked and seasoned with a full of flavors. A few were little chewy but enough to taste the core heart of the meat flavor! The toast was crisp going well with the steaks. Coke is a must. Worth a try for anyone for a long day walk! Music vibe is a plus!
