01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Situated on the 2st floor of Kachidoki View Tower, Koganeya has earned a loyal following for its teishoku set meals centered on fish and meat patiently grilled over glowing charcoal. Drawn by the smoky aroma of freshly grilled seafood, local office workers and nearby residents stream in during the midday rush.
Charcoal-Kissed Seafood and Well-Rounded Set Meals
The undisputed headliner of the menu is the salt-grilled toro mackerel teishoku. Using thick-cut Norwegian mackerel prized for its rich fat, the kitchen grills the fish over binchotan charcoal until the skin is blistered and crisp, locking in luscious, juicy flakes underneath. Those who favour rich, sweet omega-3 fat can opt for the grilled coho salmon belly (harami) set, with the option to crown it with salmon roe (ikura). Diners torn between options can choose the three-fish charcoal-grilled assortment, which brings together half-portions of 3 popular grilled varieties on one plate. Every lunch set comes with miso soup, a seasonal side dish, pickles, and grated daikon radish to round out a balanced midday meal.
Charcoal-Grilled Meat Sets and Takeaway Bento
Beyond the fish offerings, Koganeya prepares hearty meat sets, such as a charcoal-grilled 100% beef hamburg patty and grilled pork shoulder loin finished either with a savoury marinade or ginger sauce. Rice can be upsized or refilled, and raw eggs or natto can be added for extra comfort. On weekday lunchtimes, charcoal-grilled bento featuring mackerel, salmon belly, the three-fish combo, or pork shoulder are available for takeaway, delivering charcoal-fired flavour straight to nearby desks or homes.
An Approachable Dining Room by the Station
The restaurant offers an unpretentious, welcoming setting where solo diners can slip in with ease, aided by shared seating arrangements that keep the lunchtime flow moving smoothly. Please note that payment is cash only, so it is wise to have yen ready before sitting down. For a hearty weekday lunch powered by fragrant grilled fish or meat, this Kachidoki spot is a steadfast choice.
