01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Whether you are parting thick cuts of simmered fish with your chopsticks or biting into freshly fried batter, Ouchi Kitchen famiy is the kind of welcoming spot to seek out when you want a hearty, unpretentious midday meal. Tucked toward the residential side of Kameari 4-chome in Katsushika Ward, the dining room presents a menu filled with homestyle warmth.
A menu of thoughtfully prepared meat and fish mains
The offerings center on teishoku set meals, with equal care given to both fish and meat dishes. Main options stand out for their generous portions, such as a set featuring thick-cut, tender simmered sablefish paired with crisp sashimi-grade deep-fried horse mackerel, or a karaage set of flavorful, golden-fried Daisen chicken. The lineup also extends to Sangenton pork shogayaki (ginger-fried pork), mackerel simmered in miso, and trays pairing assorted seafood specialties, making browsing the options an enjoyable part of the experience. Rice refills can be adjusted from small to large portions, and small side dishes like Hokkaido grated tororo yam or spicy pollack roe (mentaiko) can be added to tailor the meal to your liking.
A comfortable setting for tea, desserts, or a casual drink
Another appealing feature here is the broad selection of beverages that complement the table. Drink options bundled with the lunch set include not just coffee and tea, but also alcoholic choices such as Asahi draft beer (Maruef), highballs, and lemon sours, making it a handy retreat when you want an unhurried afternoon drink. For a sweet finish, desserts such as anmitsu, coffee jelly, and a mixed citrus sorbet are available at approachable prices. Along with counter seating, the space is furnished with raised tatami-style koagari seating and baby chairs, offering a calm atmosphere where solo diners and families alike can comfortably share a meal.
