What makes it special
A scallion specialist tucked into a Shibuya side street with a countryside aesthetic—weathered timber, low lighting, counter and tatami seating. The lunch menu spans sashimi and grilled fish sets, but the standout is the house specialty donabe (earthenware pot) miso udon: thick, savory broth clinging to noodles, served with plain rice for dipping or topping add-ons. Dinner leans heavier into scallion-forward small plates and grilled fare. The juxtaposition of rural ambiance against Shibuya’s neon crowds is part of the draw.
