It was also close to our hotel. We speak no Japanese and the language barrier was high. No English menu and no pictures. Google translate failed miserably. But the waiter really went all out to make it work. We got chicken across and pointed at body parts . We ended up with breast, neck and thigh. It was terrific. Also got some beef also terrific. Super spicy edamame was best I've ever had. 2 small sake, 2 beers 2 glasses of wine and food for four came to just over $100. Its a bit dark and was strangely empty on a Saturday night with just a handful of local families. Once we got past our inability to get info across to the staff and our uncertainty as to what we'd ordered, it was a great experience. The waiter came with a cheat sheet with a Rosetta stone of what we had. Japanese script, Japanese in English alphabet, and English. He was oddly funny and very tolerant of our incompetence in his country's language. Thanks to Mitsu!!
