You Yi(酉一)

Izakaya Yūichi, located in the Gubei Hengshengyuan area, is an authentic Japanese izakaya beloved by locals and Japanese expats alike. The warm wooden interiors and soft amber lighting create a cozy, Tokyo-style alleyway atmosphere. Signature dishes include daily fresh sashimi platters, charcoal-grilled skewer sets, and rich, flavorful motsunabe (beef offal hot pot). The limited-edition grilled eel, with its crispy skin and tender meat, is a must-try. A wide selection of plum wine and sake perfectly complements the small plates. Open late into the night, it's an ideal spot for after-work drinks or gatherings with friends. The friendly staff can assist in English, and an English menu is available for international guests.
