Shuneitei

The lunchtime menu offers a choice of grilled-fish, simmered-fish and sashimi set meals. Grilled-fish and simmered-fish sets are listed at 950 yen each, while the sashimi set is 1,000 yen, making it easy to choose how you would like your fish prepared. One lunchtime diner wrote that the simmered fish and tempura rice bowl were less strongly flavoured than their appearance suggested, and carefully made. They also enjoyed the lightly seasoned pork-cutlet rice bowl, with its dashi-based flavour. Another diner who tried the tempura rice bowl several times said it was a particular favourite. For a rice-bowl meal, the in-house tempura set is listed at 900 yen and the pork-cutlet set at 900 yen. Tempura, pork-cutlet and chicken kuwayaki rice bowls are also listed for takeaway at 650 yen each.

In the evening, Shuneitei also works as an izakaya, where you can linger over small plates. The menu includes grilled shumai filled with scallop and fish paste, eggplant dengaku described as having the fragrant flavour of Kyoto-style miso, and a fluffy omelette. Draft beer is listed at 580 yen, and there are several dishes to choose from alongside a drink. At Shuneitei in Higashi-Mukōjima, the appeal shifts from fish-centred Japanese meals at lunchtime to small plates and drinks in the evening. The restaurant is listed as cash-only, so it is worth coming prepared.
