About this place
Some diners describe fugu karaage that was well-seasoned and fluffy, and a sashimi platter with thick slices and plenty of flavour. Those reports give a sense of Ryoutei, an izakaya in Shimbashi where fish takes centre stage, whether you fancy sashimi, fried dishes or a combination of both.
The menu lists set meals pairing fish such as kinki, tilefish and silver cod with sashimi. Some dishes let you choose between salt-grilling and simmering, making it easy to opt for grilled fish or a meal that combines simmered fish and sashimi. There are also set meals with conger eel tempura and sashimi, or fried mekari and sashimi. One lunchtime diner recalled a simmered kasago set meal served with fresh sashimi and a small side dish. Another chose a corn kakiage, a type of fritter, and said sashimi came with it. The lunch options also include set meals with salt-grilled tilefish or sweetfish and sashimi, so you can choose between a meal centred on fish and one with fried food on the side.
For dinner, diners have reported enjoying sashimi platters, kakiage and simmered alfonsino. One group dining review noted a wide choice of sake, making the restaurant a possible choice for an evening centred on fish dishes and drinks. A diner who had a course priced at 6,000 yen also reported enjoying the number of dishes, the satisfying portions and the sake selection. Course details and prices reflect the information available at the time, so check when booking if you have a particular preference. The listed opening hours are Monday to Friday, from 17:00 to 22:30, with weekends closed. These differ from the hours implied by the listed lunch menu, so check in advance if planning a lunchtime visit.
