What to know
Manmaru began its life as a mikoshi (portable shrine) resting place, but today it's where locals go for charcoal-grilled yakitori and izakaya fare. The potato salad is a popular starter, as is the wagyu beef tataki, which is served rare. More substantial plates include the Hokkaido cheese hamburg, a rich, savory dish that's big enough to share. For dessert, try the strawberry and kumquat mascarpone, which balances tartness and sweetness.
