Izakaya Shinjuku (Cuppage Plaza)

Delicious authentic Japanese cuisine in a humble eatery tucked in cuppage plaza. They are known for their great valued set meals. Their sashimi is really fresh and the tempura is served hot and crispy!
Taste: 4.5/5⭐️
Value: 5/5⭐️

The set came with tempura (2 prawns + some vegetables) and the truffle pork don. The pork was thinly sliced and very crispy.

While I enjoyed the set as a whole, I probably won’t get this again because I prefer my meat to have more bite. Will probably be back to try other dishes though.

Btw, this restaurant is very popular amongst Japanese businessmen so it must be pretty authentic! They also have $10 lunch sets so it’s pretty good for the office crowd.

This place sells authentic japanese foods! Food has got the quality and the best part was everything is at nett price.

Price:$12.50

The truffle grilled pork slices don was yummy 😋 The pork slices were nicely grilled and goes well with the onsen egg. Wish they gave more pork slices though.

Skewers were good too! Definitely a decent izakaya place after work.

This dish is made with a miso base, hence the slight saltiness. There’s also konjac and radish in the stew too. Although salty, it is a comforting dish as it warms your stomach readily. Only for offal lovers!🐷

A hidden gem in cuppage plaza that offers lunch set daily at only $10 Nett.

All their lunch set comes with a bowl of rice, 1 portion of meat, 1 portion of vegetable, fruit and 1 bowl of miso soup.

In picture, I was having Miso pork set. It was good but not mind-blowing good. Regardless, it is still value for money. *Note* There is a limited quantity daily, so be there earlier to beat the lunch crowd!

Also I have checked with the staff, they will update their daily menu weekly on their facebook page. So Do check their facebook page first before heading down!
