Dejima Asa - Nagasaki

A place to eat at 10 o'clock on Tuesday night in nagasaki is not so easy. we have almost accumulated the Konbini food when we found the dejima asa izakaya near nagasakis chinatown. it looks pretty posh on the outside that made us reluctant to go inside. we entered the facility only to be welcomed by one of the waiters. he was quite surprised when he saw us and had to ask his associates what he should do with us. they decided to send us up where private seating is available. as you have to pull your shoes off and kneel before the table, my mother-in-law refused to do this because of physical restrictions. we said to the polite and friendly waiter that this kind of sitting was not suitable for us. he told the teamworkers down about the heads of this manifestation and after a moment of silence he showed us the way back down where we sat at the bar. there were some local customers who have something to eat, but we were warmly welcomed by the employees. the order was quite funny as we didn't really know what to order first. our waiter, whose English was not so bad, apologised for his lack of English skills, which we justified by the declaration that our japaners were even worse (hahahaha). so, after ordering a few drafts of beer, the selection of dishes became easier. we ordered, I think, 10 dishes for a group of 4, sometimes insecure, what exactly we ordered. (the menu had an English translation, but some dishes were not self-explanatory) among these were, for example, the kartoffel wedges and the rice and a tempura mix. they all tasted amazing. we all had a laugh that was personal. the chefs saw every step we have made and tried to read our faces after each bite. we reacted with cheerful faces and enthusiastic hearts. For us, eating was not so expensive when one looked at the absurd amount of things we had ordered first. nice staff, good eating, laughing. 10/10 would visit again.

Best sashimi and kyushu bark plus local specialties including fried snapper and tofu. local love and sochu excellent variety! great service also for English speakers. but they need to know what they want to do from local people. in comparison to to tokio much better price quality.

Looks outward and very nice inside. it's a great place to go when someone likes sashimi in their group, but others don't. there are many dishes that they can get without eating raw fish

Great restaurant with many interesting menus! Menu in english, chinese and korean will attract foreign tourists too!

Good food with the best service.
