Hiyachu

Hiyachu is a small, specialty restaurant located along Sotobori Street in Minato. Found in the basement of the Hosokawa Building near the Tameike intersection, this discreet spot focuses on noodles and offers a unique twist by serving only cold dishes, a concept it introduced after a stint in New York City.

The restaurant opened its doors back in February 2019, but visitor reviews have not been updated for several years. From what is known, it's an intimate establishment with only about six seats, promising a personalized dining experience. Customer service has been described as attentive, with the owner taking the time to explain the menu to diners.

Operating hours are limited, running from mid-morning to early afternoon, from Monday to Friday, making it ideal for lunch visits. The culinary offerings seem to be minimalistic, featuring just a couple of cold noodle options, each garnished with a variety of toppings. Pricing falls on the lower end, ensuring it remains an accessible choice for a quick bite. However, due to the age of the reviews, current menu items and pricing should be checked directly with the restaurant.
