About this place
Standing along a street in Ebara, Shinagawa Ward, Gorohachi is a local teishoku canteen that retains an inviting, nostalgic Showa-era atmosphere. Step past the yellow sign, and you will find counter and table seating wrapped in a relaxed vibe where anyone can drop in comfortably, whether for a quiet solo meal or an easy drink after work.
The signature Gorohachi-don layers crisp lettuce, pork, and grated daikon radish over rice for a refreshing bowl. The pairing of tender pork and grated daikon sits lightly on the palate, complemented by a generously filled soup and homestyle side dishes for a thoroughly satisfying meal. The meat salad teishoku is another longtime favorite, dressing pork in a mildly sweet sauce over greens and grated radish that pairs effortlessly with steamed rice.
The walls and blackboards display classic canteen fare, from dependable favorites like pork loin ginger stir-fry, beef yakiniku, and hamburgh steak sets to tuna rice bowls, gomoku soba, and ramen. Lunchtime draws patrons for budget-friendly daily specials, while the evening sees regulars stopping by for small plates and set meals paired unhurriedly with beer, highballs, or sake.
