Sambongi Shoten
Japanese
The charcoal grill is the center of gravity at this izakaya off Nishi Sambongi-dori, where beef, duck, venison, and mutton get coaxed over a carefully managed flame. The menu roams freely across Japanese, French, and Chinese without apology, which sounds chaotic and somehow isn't. Organic wines and warm sake round out a drinks list that has clearly been thought through. The Michelin Guide awards it a Bib Gourmand, which tracks for a place this relaxed and this particular about fire.
