Izakaya Momiji Sakaba
Powered by Google
A cozy, no-frills izakaya tucked away near the foot of Shin-Ohashi bridge in Hamacho, run by a couple from Myanmar. The intimate dining room fits 30 guests at table seating and exudes the welcoming warmth of a neighborhood local. Known for its generously portioned lunch sets — especially the tuna cheek steak and grilled beef short ribs — and a surprisingly impressive sake selection featuring rare bottles like Shinkansen No.6, Tanabarake, and Sharaku. Evening visits reveal a broader a la carte menu including sashimi platters, pork kakuni, salt-grilled bluefin tuna, and ginger pork belly. Private buyouts are available for groups.
