Shimokita Rokkaku (下北六角), a Japanese-style izakaya about a 10-second walk from the East Exit of Shimokitazawa Station in Tokyo, begins serving a terrace-only "Autumn Yakiniku Course" (秋の焼肉コース) on Thursday, October 1, 2026. Guests can enjoy grilled meat and Japanese-style small dishes at the open-air terrace in front of the restaurant, along with all-you-can-drink options.
A Terrace Seating Area Right by the Station
Urban terrace seating tends to take the form of cafes and bars, leaving few options for enjoying full-fledged meat dishes and drinks at a relaxed pace outdoors. The restaurant developed this course to fill that gap for the trend-conscious young people and local residents who gather in Shimokitazawa, drawing on its direct-from-producer ingredient sourcing and original drink offerings.
The terrace sits about a 10-second walk from the East Exit ticket gate of Shimokitazawa Station, yet it is set slightly away from the bustle in front of the station. Dedicated grills are set up in the open-air space, and the number of seats is limited, with reservations taking priority. Because the meal is outdoors, smoke and odors are less likely to cling to clothes, which makes it suitable for everything from casual get-togethers to special-occasion dinners. The terrace can also be used in rainy weather.
Eight-Dish Menu With Senba Beef From Chiba Prefecture
The course combines the satisfaction of yakiniku with delicate Japanese dishes. The main meat dishes feature "Senba beef from Chiba Prefecture" (千葉県産せんば牛), a branded beef, along with carefully selected cuts from across Japan: beef tongue, beef kalbi, beef loin, and beef harami (skirt steak). Dishes that draw on izakaya cooking techniques round out the menu, including a dashi-rich beef tendon chawanmushi (steamed egg custard), beef shabu potato manju (dumpling) with a three-mushroom sauce, and chilled Amakusa Daio soba to finish.
