太洋軒
Taiyoken in Sakashita, Itabashi Ward, is an approachable neighborhood Chinese diner offering gentle fried rice, karaage, and fish sets featuring bluefin tuna sashimi and grilled mackerel.
01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
Situated in Sakashita, Itabashi Ward, Taiyoken stands out for a varied bill of fare that stretches well beyond conventional Chinese diner standards. Midday regulars drop in for gently seasoned fried rice, while others turn to hearty teishoku lunch sets such as fried chicken, pan-fried pork (yakiniku), or tonkatsu. Unexpectedly for a Chinese eatery, the menu also ventures into seafood, featuring Pacific saury sets, chilled tomatoes, and a popular combination pairing bluefin tuna sashimi with salted grilled mackerel.
The dining area is arranged with tables and counter seating, easily accommodating solo diners alongside regulars lingering over beer and small plates. Open for lunch and reopening in the evening, the restaurant operates on a cash-only basis. Whether stopping by for a bowl of noodles or a substantial set meal, it functions as a dependable, down-to-earth neighborhood canteen.
