01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
When an order arrives at the table, it is not merely the fish main dish that stands out, but the well-rounded ensemble of hearty tonjiru pork soup packed with ingredients, assorted small side dishes, and vibrant fresh sashimi. Located in the Kotobuki Building in Tsukiji 2-chome, Umaimonya is an izakaya serving set meals and platters centered on seafood. Whether on a weekday lunch break or at dusk, it serves as a reliable retreat when you want to fill up on wholesome fish dishes.
Fragrant grilled fish and crisp tuna cutlet
A perennial favorite is the grilled fish teishoku, cooked until the skin is crisp and aromatic while the flesh remains tender and juicy. Well-salted, fatty selections such as mackerel frequently appear, pairing effortlessly with freshly cooked white rice. Another crowd pleaser is the tuna cutlet set meal, featuring thick, generously sized cuts deep-fried to a crisp golden finish for a satisfying bite. Side dishes and sashimi slices—ranging from lean tuna akami to flavorful scraped nakaochi—hold their own presence on the tray, letting diners appreciate the deep umami of the seafood to the fullest.
Casual rice bowls and evening gatherings
For those who prefer a swift, satisfying meal, the rice bowls are an appealing option, including the nakaochi don heaped with scraped tuna and the shirasu don piled high with delicate whitebait. During evening operating hours, guests can unwind with bottled beer and small bites from the kitchen before capping off the night with a full meal tray.
To help diners focus entirely on their food, the shop asks guests to refrain from using mobile phones inside, cultivating a quiet environment where you can appreciate each dish directly. PayPay is accepted for payment, making it a handy spot whenever you are craving honest, hearty Tsukiji seafood for lunch or dinner.
