[Ueno] Tokyo Monja Sakaba Konaya Dashinosuke opens September 13!
Overview
Tokyo Monja Sakaba Konaya Dashinosuke is opening on September 13, 2026, just 1 minute from Ueno Station. The new restaurant combines three things in one: monjayaki, okonomiyaki and an izakaya (Japanese-style pub).
Ueno has long been known for its old downtown (shitamachi) atmosphere and fierce restaurant competition, and the streets around the station are packed with all kinds of places to eat. As its name suggests, Tokyo Monja Sakaba Konaya Dashinosuke, the latest arrival in central Ueno, is built around monjayaki. It also works as an okonomiyaki restaurant and an izakaya, which should make it a treat for anyone who loves konamono (batter-based dishes).
Monjayaki and okonomiyaki are typically cooked and eaten together around a teppan hotplate. They work for a solo meal but are also well suited to sharing with friends, coworkers or family. With the izakaya side added, the restaurant is also a place to relax over drinks, not just to eat. It should suit many occasions, from a drink after work to a long weekend meal around the hotplate.
The biggest draw is its location near Ueno Station. At just a 1-minute walk away, it has a real advantage in an area where most people get around by train. It is easy to drop in right after meeting up, or to grab a quick meal before catching a shinkansen or train. For people visiting Ueno for sightseeing, business or other reasons, having another casual option this close to the station is a welcome addition.
The restaurant is on the 5th floor of the Veritas Okano Eisen Building. The Ueno area has a mix of long-established shops and buzzworthy newcomers, and Tokyo Monja Sakaba Konaya Dashinosuke's mix of monjayaki, okonomiyaki and izakaya adds something new to the local dining scene. If you're in Ueno on or after its September 13 opening day, it's worth a visit.
