Youxi House has four branches in Shanghai, and its reputation is second only to Heiseiya. Opened in 2012, Youxiya is an old restaurant with some history for China's catering industry, which is rapidly changing.
Youxi houses are generally opened in the bustling business district, although most of them live on the second floor, but the blue light boxes of the stars and moons are highly recognizable. There are not many locations in the store, so reservations are accepted. The dishes are decent, and the sincerity in the side dishes is slightly insufficient, such as the radish puree with grilled fish, which is originally very important as a greasy side food, but the radish puree here seems to be only used as a decoration, with more fiber and less moisture, and the refreshing and juicy taste of the radish puree is basically not eaten.
The overall service in the store is lagging behind, and the details are particularly lacking, and you can feel the more obvious Shanghainese-style service. The atmosphere of the restaurant is almost completely localized, except for the decoration and greetings during the greeting, there is basically no Japanese atmosphere; The Japanese program played on the display screen has also become a Chinese topic movie; The position of the bar has basically become a takeaway counter, and few customers choose to sit at the bar.
In fact, izakaya belongs to the public catering, so the requirements in terms of dishes and cooking level are not too high, and any izakaya may become the No.1 in your mind.
