Chanko Tomoegata

Great value on the lunch sets and amazing chanko broth with generous serving of ingredients.

We ordered 大綱 for two people to share. Food is good, but far less than we expect. When we were checking, we learned we've been charged twice the listed price. (14000 yen) Communication need to be very careful if you don't speak in japanese.

At first you might think it's a little bit expensive, but it's more than just the food you are paying for. The staff is very friendly and will show you the proper way to eat Chanko Nabe! Don't be afraid to ask for recommendations, and do ask for extra noodles at the end, to enjoy the delicious broth!

Sumo and Chanko Nabe!! We came here for dinner after watching a sumo match. It was just around the corner from the stadium and the reviews looked good so we decided to give it a try! They seated us upstairs and on this particular evening we were very much the only westerners in the room. The service was very kind and considerate. We had 2 servers who each spoke a little English and the menu had plenty of photos so we made it work. Even with the explanation of how to cook the soup yourself on the burner in front of you they were kind using hand gestures and explaining. It was a ton of food so go hungry!! It was a fun experience as well as delicious. The music is particular as it’s the singing which happens after a sumo match, we had just been so we understood but that might be a surprise if you don’t know what the style of music is.

Friendly and attentive staff. Lunch sets are affordable.
