The onigiri set was a good deal, with one onigiri, miso soup, and three sides (grilled chicken, tofu and pickles) for ¥1,330 (8-10am), with additional onigiris available for ¥250 each.
The miso soup was hearty and full of flavour, and came with fried tofu and sweet potato in the soup. The onigiri, while on the smaller side, was delicious. The grilled salmon and spicy tuna onigiris was tasty with a decent portion of fresh fish pairing well with the rice, though the brown rice onigiri was my personal favourite, as the rice had a nice salty taste to it that differed from the relative plainness of the white rice in the other onigiris.
The sides were a nice addition to the dish too, though if you’d like a smaller meal just the smaller set with one onigiri and miso soup for ¥850 will suffice.
We came at 8am on Saturday and there was a small queue of around 10 people ahead of us, and we were seated relatively quickly. The queue was a lot longer when we left at ~8:45 so do come early if you’d like to try the morning set! Seating is available on the first and second floor, with more seating available upstairs (requires walking up/down a narrow staircase).
A nice place for breakfast if you’re in the area, looking forward to returning sometime soon.
Cheap and delicious!! Simple Japanese brekkie spot for onigiri and miso soup, the flavours change from time to time and it also comes with some side dishes. The place is quite small but there’s an upper floor! I came here for my most recent trip and last year’s trip, I recommend if you’re in the asakusa area!
Best quick breakfast in Asakusa for under 6 USD! The umami flavor of the miso broth is truly next level. Get there early if you don't have time to wait.
A short line up for breakfast at 8am... it's a small restaurant but we went in at 8:02 and finished breakfast by 8:20. The food was served quickly, rice and soup
Went back here to have a simple breakfast of onigiri and that day's miso soup (it had mushroom and eggplant!). It was a comforting and satisfying meal! I think I want to return here for breakfast every time I'm in Tokyo~
