Just minutes after ordering, bite-sized gyoza arrive neatly arranged in a piping hot iron pan—the signature style of Tetsunabe Nakasu Honten. The crispy skin and juicy filling pair wonderfully with beer, made through an original method of folding the wrappers without pleats. The menu also offers an array of drinking snacks, including chewy boiled gyoza, sesame mackerel (goma saba) and sesame amberjack (goma kanpachi), stir-fried offal with miso sauce, and a Showa-retro potato salad with plenty of mayonnaise, with evening budgets typically in the ¥2,000 range. Founded in 1968, this long-standing shop bustles at night with locals and tourists alike, often drawing a queue. The 1st floor features a compact layout focused on counter seats, alongside tatami seating (zashiki) and horigotatsu (sunken table seating), and the entire venue is non-smoking. It is open from lunchtime on weekends and national holidays, making daytime stops equally convenient. From a quick solo drink to a second stop of the night or a gathering with friends, it is an easy place to enjoy.
