“ 高砂町界隈で飲みたくてふらっと飛びこんだ店ですがお店の人も常連さんもいい人達で居心地最高でした。壁のメニューは目が悪いのでよく見えなかったんですが、お店の方のお気遣いで私のスマホで撮ってくれたのでスマホ写真のメニューを見ながら食べたい品を注文できました。料理安くて美味しいし日本酒も美味しかった。また行きたい居酒屋です。 ”
“ 로컬 이자카야 봇짱. 아무래도 외국인보다 현지인이 많이 찾는 그런 곳... 금요일에는 자리가 없어서 호텔로 돌아갔지만, 토요일과 일요일 모두 이 곳에서 한 잔을 즐길 수가 있었다. 우선 안주와 음료의 가격이 매우 합리적이다. 맛도 상당히 좋다. 일본어의 허들은 있지만, 오카이도의 복잡한 분위기가 싫다면 충분히 도전해 볼 그런 곳 인것 같다. 바쁠 때는 어쩔 수 없겠지만, 여유로워지면 마스터가 이리저리 말도 걸어주신다. 일어를 잘 못하더라도, 간단한 단어만 해도 금방 이해해주셔서, 어느순간 자연스럽게 대화를 하게 되는게 너무 신기했다. 개인적으로 마쓰야마에서 즐겁게 마셨던 곳 TOP3중에 하나라고 생각한다. ”

“ 居酒屋の聖地 安い 美味い の居酒屋さん 古いから抵抗あるかもだけど、 この汚さが私にはちょうど良い。 チャーハン おにぎり 鳥丼 サラダ 鶏皮 他諸々食べて欲しいものがいっぱいあります。 たらふく食べて飲んで1人3000円もあれば十分です。 末長く続けて欲しい居酒屋さんです。 ”
