01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
A classic Japanese meal—where sashimi or tempura shares the tray with pickles and a comforting bowl of soup—is the kind of dining people easily find themselves craving in everyday life. Located in Takashimadaira 7-chome, Aji Tanaka offers just that style of unpretentious Japanese cooking in a calm setting, welcoming guests at both lunch and dinner. Filled with light and a sense of cleanliness, the quiet dining room comfortably accommodates solo diners as well as gatherings of family and friends.
Classic Teishoku Sets and Hearty Rice Bowls
The menu centers heavily on fish dishes, including sashimi set meals, tuna sashimi sets, tempura sets, and premium grilled fish sets, while also offering fried favorites like fried shrimp, karaage fried chicken, and mixed fry sets. Options such as kaisen-don seafood bowls, simmered offal rice bowls, and lighter fare like raw-egg-over-rice sets make it easy to suit any appetite or mood. Certain meal trays come accompanied by small side dishes or steamed savory egg custard (chawanmushi), adding the pleasure of tasting small bites alongside freshly cooked rice.
Unhurried Dining with Multi-Course Sets and Small Plates
When you want to take your time savoring each dish in succession, course menus such as the "Otsukaresama Course" or the "Otanoshimi Course" are appealing choices. These selections are designed to begin with appetizers and sashimi, continue through tempura, grilled fish, and simmered dishes, and finish with rice alongside a clear broth or red miso soup. Larger platters and smaller dishes suited for sharing—such as assorted sashimi, tempura platters, and locally sourced simmered vegetables—can also be paired with beer, shochu, or whisky for a relaxed evening drink.
With diverse formats tailored for different occasions, from onigiri rice ball courses and zosui porridge courses to makunouchi boxed meals, the restaurant is also well-suited for planned gatherings and reservations. Linger over carefully prepared Japanese dishes and enjoy a peaceful, restorative meal.
