What to know
The counter seats eight, forming part of Chottotei's 22-seat layout. This long-established Chinese restaurant specializes in only three dishes: fried rice, gyoza, and bean sprout noodles. It restarted after a temporary closure with this focused menu. The pan-fried gyoza features a crispy texture. Visitors describe the food as delicious. Mash Gourmet (@mash_foodstagram) notes, "The fried rice is devilishly good (チャーハンが鬼うまい町中華「一寸亭」)." The restaurant maintains a focused-on-food mood, suitable for an everyday meal or a travel highlight.
