💡 Tips for Visitors

The lunch and dinner rush can mean wait times of 30-60 minutes, so visit during off-peak hours (2-5 PM) for quicker service. Picture menus are available making ordering easy even without Japanese language skills. Cash is generally preferred, though major credit cards may be accepted at station locations.
