Jomon Roppongi

The faded wooden plank exterior of this restaurant seems at odds with the glitzy area of Roppongi surrounding it, but that’s just part of the rustic charm that locals love. The inside is warm and welcoming, set up in the style of a typical Japanese neighborhood eatery. They serve up Fukuoka style grilled skewers, mostly featuring pork, which was historically much more popular in the southern parts than on the main island of Japan. Another dish to look out for is their fantastic egg custard. When trying to navigate the menu of delicious small bites and dozens of alcohols, you’ll have enough English support to get by without any worry. This shop is extremely popular among the residents and workers of the area, so reserving a seat is recommended if you want to experience Jomon Roppongi at its liveliest times.
