This is my first time eating ochazuke and it’s delicious! It's filling but not too heavy, has broth, and is light and appealing. If you eat the whole bowl, you'll be quite full. Both the pork belly and salmon are delicious! The fried shiitake mushrooms are also super delicious. Be sure to try them!

Especially the meat is really delicious♥️♥️

It's been a while since we had a family outing and we had a meal. My eldest daughter wanted to eat ochazuke, so I made a reservation and visited. It was delicious and the broth had a clean taste. There were plenty of toppings, so I had a really delicious meal!

I visited after seeing an Instagram ad. The two of us visited in the evening and went right in without waiting! The store was reasonably spacious and had a nice atmosphere as it was on the second floor. I ordered salmon ochazuke and eel ochazuke. The eel was well prepared and soft and went well with the soup. I also enjoyed the salmon ochazuke because it went better than I expected. I heard that Butano Kakuni is also delicious, so I want to visit and eat it again next time~☺️

Ochaya, this is my third Ttoonjip! On my second visit, I came to eat alone, and it was a great place to eat alone!! The gulbi menu was so delicious that I brought some to give my boyfriend a taste! There wasn’t one!! ㅠㅠ Still, all of the other pollack roe and eel menu items were delicious.. The portions were huge, so I ate my fill. 🍀💗 I think it would be nice to come here with my parents on a special day! I recommend it👍🏻

I was satisfied with the shiitake fries because they had a good texture on the outside and a good flavor. Buta no Kakuni had soft meat and just the right amount of seasoning, so it went well with rice, and adding meat was a good choice. The amount of eel in the unagi chazuke was good, and it was nice to finish it off by mixing it in the soup. Overall, both cost-effectiveness and taste are good, so I plan to visit again.

The menu looks pretty as it is on the menu, and you can eat alone with friends or lovers! I really like it, but the location outside the window is really nice, and I think it's good value for money for students as well😉

I highly recommend it as a dog-friendly restaurant. It's on the second floor, and there's an elevator in the building, so it's really nice that dog strollers can go up there with ease!!! The food was warm, delicious, and neat, so I felt better overall. I want to come here often.

I heard there was a good ochazuke restaurant in Sangsu, so I came here and it turned out well👏 I ordered Butano Kakuni and pollack roe ochazuke, and both were really delicious. Butano Kakuni was like a whole dongpo meat topped up. The meat is so soft that you can just cut it with chopsticks??? I also gave pollack roe Ochazuke 🌟pass🌟 as a pollack roe rubber. The pollack roe is very soft and moderately salty and delicious. The rice is not just rice, but nutritious rice🍚 so it feels healthier^^

Hi, this is Buljumeok from Songpa-gu. Today I’m at Ocha-ya, my absolute favorite place that I have to visit at least once a month. It has the charm of Japanese home-style food with a Korean pot-rice feel, so it’s not heavy but still hearty and warming. The flavor with its unique green-tea broth is so memorable that I’d want to eat it even if I were born again. While eating, I even found myself thinking that if I worked here, I’d get to eat this every day.ㅎㅎ But I don’t think I’m the only one who’s had that thought. It’s not because I’m a regular or because I’ve known the staff for 10 years; it’s just genuinely delicious. Otherwise, why would I have come almost 10 times? Trust me and please go once. My life is basically split into before and after I discovered Ocha-ya, and I always end up filling all 400 characters in these reviews haha!
