If Tonkichi isn’t the epitome of a Koenji hangout, I don’t know what is. The expansive outdoor seating area is almost always buzzing with trendy locals enjoying beers and perfectly grilled pork skewers. Be sure to try their signature tan shio (salted pork tongue)—it’s the perfect match for an ice-cold beer or shochu.
