About this place
One diner reported enjoying the grilled salted mackerel and agedashi mochi, a combination that suggests a relaxed drink over a fish dish and a mochi plate at Jack. They shared small plates and enjoyed four dishes and four drinks. With portions that can be ordered a little at a time, you might start with one dish and choose what to have next to go with your drink.
Alongside grilled salted mackerel, the menu lists fish dishes such as hokke (Atka mackerel) and sanma (Pacific saury), both served opened and grilled, as well as grilled shishamo smelt. Add agedashi mochi or rolled dashi omelette for a different kind of plate alongside the grilled fish. One review described the omelette, tofu and mochi as plant-based dishes. The reviewer also noted that bonito flakes were sometimes used in the dashi, so check when ordering if you have concerns about ingredients.
Drinks include draft beer, Japanese sake and shochu, as well as cocktails and chu-hi. Smirnoff Lemonade, described as sweet and sour with a gentle fizz, is another option if you fancy something other than beer. The casual izakaya is in Nishisuminoe, Suminoe Ward, and is suited to groups. Reservations are available, and the listed payment method is cash only—worth bearing in mind when planning dinner with friends or a later drink.
