How to book

Phone, in Japanese

Phone only, in Japanese, and the line jams during service — call at the 17:00 opening or late. No release day; the 22 counter seats are the fight.

Phone line: ☎ Call at the 17:00 opening or late in the night — the line jams mid-service (Mon–Sat 17:00–about 1:00; closed Sun & holidays)
What to expect: The 22-seat counter is the contested item and goes largely to regulars rebooking as they leave.
