01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Just steps from the Tokyo Metro Senkawa Station exit, stairs lead down into the basement dining room of Bamiyan - Senkawa Station. The interior is arranged with numerous booth seats, providing a comfortable, relaxed setting removed from the hustle outside the station.
The signature pan-fried gyoza are an easy place to start, offered in portions of 3 or 6 pieces to suit individual appetites. They pair naturally with the restaurant's rice dishes, from fluffy wok-tossed fried rice and egg-draped Tenshin fried rice to a substantial Taiwanese-style large fried chicken fried rice. Diners looking for a fuller meal will also find hearty teishoku combinations centered on main dishes such as authentic Sichuan mapo tofu or yurinchi deep-fried chicken with scallion sauce.
Ordering is straightforward via table tablets, with automated delivery robots bringing plates directly to the table. Beyond the food, a self-service drink bar provides a wide range of teas and soft drinks, while desserts like refreshing aiyu jelly and almond tofu finish off the menu. It works just as well for a quick solo lunch as it does for an unhurried family dinner.
