Making TEBASAKI a Culture.

best wings i've had in nagoya, we came here for a late night munch around 11pm and was well worth it. we ordered every flavour of each chicken wings and bonbon wings, and all of them were very good! the tomato salad and sausage sides were also extremely tasty and the tomatoes were perfect as a palette cleanser and refreshing!

I am Korean, and I decided to write this review because I noticed some comments mentioning discrimination against Korean customers. We made a same-day reservation and were asked to come after 10 PM. When we arrived, a female staff member immediately welcomed us and guided us to the second floor. We ordered several varieties of tebasaki, along with draft beer and a sweet sour drink. Later, the same staff member (who appeared to be the bartender) kindly checked on us, asking how the food and drinks were. She also gave us some menu recommendations. The ginger highball she suggested was especially delicious and memorable. Her service was incredibly friendly and attentive throughout the visit. As for the tebasaki, the taste was somewhat similar to non-breaded wings I’ve had in Canada, but the texture and seasoning were clearly different. The skin was pleasantly chewy, and the flavor was well-balanced. Highly recommended. The staff member even said goodbye to us before finishing her shift, and the male owner personally took care of our table afterward. When we left, he walked us to the door and thanked us. We did not feel any sense of discrimination at all. Our experience was very positive.

I was looking for a local Nagoya dining experience on my last night in the city, and this izakaya was recommended to me. It turned out to be one of the highlights of my trip. The restaurant is quite small and cozy, but I had no problem finding a comfortable seat. In fact, the compact space adds to the traditional and authentic atmosphere that makes this place so charming. I ordered a variety of dishes, including all the different flavors of their famous chicken wings, beef tendon stew, cold tofu, and cucumber with miso paste. Every single dish was delicious. The chicken wings were especially outstanding and absolutely worth trying. Unfortunately, I don’t have any photos to share. My hands were too busy (and messy!) enjoying the chicken wings, and before I knew it, all the food was gone before I remembered to take any pictures. If you’re visiting Nagoya and want to try local specialties in a friendly, authentic setting, don’t miss this place. Great food, great atmosphere, and excellent value for money. Highly recommended!

Having been to all the famous Nagoya chains for wings, Mutsumi has the best I've tried. It's very popular, so reservations are generally needed. They can be easily made online. Staff didn't seem thrilled to be dealing with foreigners but does have an English menu.

We had to rush into this place as we were a bit late for dinner. They had many reservations and yet were so kind to take us in for limited time. During our stay their time management was also great as they prepared the dishes quickly and reminded us before we had to leave so could prepare and finalize. Staff were very friendly and talked to us during the meal. The Tebasaki wing Nagoya style was the star of the show while other versions also kept shining. I highly recommend this place.

The highlight is the Tebasaki Chicken (Fried Chicken), crisp on the outside and tender inside. All 3 flavors are nice and well balanced. Can’t decide which one is the best. It’s good to try them all! All other side dishes are well made as well. I have a good cosy dinner here. Staffs are friendly and welcoming!

Some of the best chicken wings we’ve ever had! Made reservations online through Hot Pepper. We really appreciated the English menu and loved the cozy counter seating. Despite the language barrier, all of the staff were extremely kind and attentive! Would definitely come back here the next time we’re in Nagoya!

I’ve been traveling Japan for the last month and a half, and this is the first time I’ve entered an izakaya(as I don’t drink much), but what a great experience this was. I came here to try Nagoya style chicken wings and wasn’t let down; thin and crispy chicken perfectly fried and seasoned accompanied with a set of pickled veggies, fluffy white rice and a lemon sour to chase it all down; loved every bite of my meal. Not sure if it’s normal procedure for izakayas but I’ve never been in a more lively and chatty setting in a restaurant while being in Japan, it was awesome to be able to chat with the waitresses with my limited Japanese while still being made to feel very welcome; very wonderful staff!

The best wings I’ve ever had in Japan! If you’re looking for Nagoya style wings this is the only place to go to get your fix! Highly recommend!

I went twice the day before and found out that you can't get in without a reservation... So I made a reservation for the next day and went in! It was even more delicious than I expected, and I ordered all the chicken wing flavors 😋😋😋 Everything was delicious! I sat at the counter, but even though I was drinking alone, the seat at the very end was perfect! I'll definitely stop by again when I'm in Nagoya. Thank you for the meal 😋

While staying at a hotel in Sakae, I searched for a nearby chicken wing restaurant and found this one. Although I was drinking alone, the friendly and attentive owner provided excellent service and food. I'm grateful that they fulfilled my desire to eat delicious chicken wings in Nagoya. The restaurant has a very calm atmosphere with only counter seating. The food suited my taste perfectly. I would definitely like to visit again when I come to Nagoya.

A new restaurant serving delicious chicken wings has opened! I visited "Tebasaki Mutsumi Shinsakae Branch," located in Shinsakae 1-chome, Naka-ku, Nagoya City.

Mutsumi's new store It's a little far from the main shopping area, but it seems relatively easy to get a reservation? The number of seats is very small The seasoning seems slightly different from other stores, but it's still delicious.

This time we visited Mutsumi Tebasaki! This popular restaurant has its main branch in Nagoya and is run by a participant from a certain dating reality show! 💕 Of course, their signature chicken wings were delicious, but every item on the menu was also incredibly tasty! 😆 [Four-Variety Chicken Wing Platter] Black: Homemade Miso Sauce White: Salt and Pepper Red: Homemade Spicy Sauce Ebisu: Garlic Truffle All four varieties were incredibly delicious! 🥰 Personally, I liked the "Ebisu: Garlic Truffle," which is only available at the Ebisu branch, the best! [Ebisu Potato Salad] The live presentation, where they pipe the potato salad like a Mont Blanc right in front of you, was exciting! 🤩 You can choose between black pepper or noritama (seaweed and egg) as a finishing touch, and this time I chose noritama! It had a strong garlic flavor and was so delicious it made me want to drink a lot! 🍻 [Bonbon] This is apparently one of Mutsumi's specialties, made by processing chicken wings to make them easier to eat! I chose "Garlic Truffle" from the four available flavors, and it was absolutely delicious—crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside! 🧄 [Warm Kishimen Noodles] I had this midway through the meal, not as a final dish, but the flavorful broth was absolutely exquisite! It warmed me right up! ☺️☺️ [Chicken Neck (Salted)] The meat was cut into large pieces, allowing me to enjoy the springy texture! The accompanying yuzu pepper was a perfect match! 👍 [Nanko Plum Cucumber] It was just right as a palate cleanser! 🥒 [Deep-fried Zucchini and Eggplant in Broth] The gentle flavor of the broth permeated the vegetables, making it delicious! 【Appetizer (Crispy Bell Peppers)】 The crispy texture and mayonnaise/miso make for a great snack! 🫑 They also have an all-you-can-drink option, which is great for those who love alcohol! 🍺🍶🍷 Everything was delicious, and it's a hidden gem of a restaurant, making it perfect for dates, girls' nights out, or even as a second stop! ✨

Tebasaki Mutsumi, a specialty chicken wing restaurant in Ebisu 🐓🍻 Located a short walk from Ebisu Station, this popular restaurant is a must-visit for any chicken wing lover. It offers a new way to enjoy chicken wings, going beyond the Nagoya style. This time, we tried a tasting of four different types of chicken wings. Each had a completely different flavor—sweet and spicy sauce, spices, salt, etc.—making it endlessly enjoyable. The outside was crispy and fragrant, the inside juicy, and before you knew it, you could eat several! 🦃 And you absolutely must try the potato salad. Its appearance is striking, resembling a Mont Blanc. With its smooth texture and exquisite seasoning, it's perfect with drinks. It's a great palate cleanser between bites of chicken wings. ◎ The yakisoba (fried udon noodles) we had at the end was also incredibly delicious. The flat, chewy noodles, similar to kishimen, paired perfectly with the savory sauce, making for a truly satisfying dish. The restaurant had a lively yet relaxed atmosphere, making it a great place for dates, drinks with friends, or a drink after work. 🍻

Compare 4 Kinds of Chicken Wings! A Hidden Gem Izakaya in Ebisu 🍗 We visited "Tebasaki Mutsumi Ebisu Branch" in Ebisu. As a sister restaurant to a Nagoya establishment that's notoriously difficult to get a reservation at, it's a must-visit for chicken wing lovers. Their specialty is a tasting set of four types of chicken wings: black, white, red, and Ebisu. The appeal lies in being able to enjoy the unique flavor of each. Furthermore, their signature "Bonbon," said to be addictive after just one bite, is also a noteworthy menu item. This time, we ordered the four-kind chicken wing platter, Ebisu potato salad, angel shrimp mayonnaise, konjac with roe, Banban black and Banban red chicken wings, and Catalana. What particularly caught our eye was the potato salad, exclusive to the Ebisu branch. In addition to the live preparation right in front of you, it features a subtly sweet and smooth texture, and you can enjoy changing the flavor with black pepper or noritama (seaweed and egg). It's a dish you'll want to order with your drinks. The restaurant has the atmosphere of a hidden gem where adults gather in Ebisu. It's also popular for after-parties after 9 PM, making it a good choice for business dinners or drinks with friends. [Regarding dining with children] Child-friendly rating: ★★★★★ 5.0! There are many table seats, and in addition to chicken wings, which kids love, there are also options like "bonbon" (chicken boneless), making it a kid-friendly choice. This is a restaurant I'd like to consider for a wide range of occasions, from family meals to adult dinners. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I recently visited a hidden gem of a chicken wing restaurant that opened in June 2025, just a 3-minute walk from Ebisu Station's west exit, near Ebisu Shrine. ✨ It's a sister restaurant to a popular, hard-to-reserve restaurant in Nagoya run by a participant from a certain dating reality show!

I stopped by on my way back from running errands at Ichinomiya Station. Opened July 22nd, 2026 (Wednesday) I saw this new restaurant on Instagram; it seems they've started serving lunch.

Thank you for the meal.

Mutsumi Tebasaki has opened at the entrance to the approach to Masumida Shrine in Ichinomiya. Their main branch is in Sakae, Nagoya. It's difficult to get into the main branch without a reservation. This Ichinomiya branch is open for lunch, and they have a happy hour from 11:30 to 17:00 where you can get draft beer at a discount. I went in at 16:00 on a Sunday and first ordered a draft beer and chicken skin with ponzu sauce to look at the menu. I started with the black chicken wings with a sweet and spicy sauce. I put on the plastic gloves provided on the table and dug in; the sweet sauce was exquisite. I finished them in no time and ordered the red chicken wings with a spicy sauce. It wasn't as spicy as it looked; it was sweet and spicy. These chicken wings had no unpleasant smell and were incredibly delicious!

I was curious about this place since they started serving lunch, so I went to check it out✨ The prices were reasonable, the atmosphere was nice, and it's a place where you can bring your kids😊 The lemon kishimen, which is a summer-only item, was refreshing and delicious✨ The chicken wings were crispy and juicy and addictive✨ I want to go back and try other menu items.

The chicken wings were absolutely delicious! Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside. The seasoning was perfect, and they paired wonderfully with drinks. The other dishes were also delicious, and the staff were attentive and polite, making for a very pleasant experience. I would definitely like to visit again when I'm in the area!

This is a chicken wing restaurant located on a street corner in Imaike. We tried three types of chicken wings: black, white, and red. The black wings had a sweet sauce, the white wings were seasoned with salt and pepper, and the red wings were spicy and flavorful. Each had a different seasoning, making it fun to compare them. All of them paired well with alcohol and were very delicious. Besides chicken wings, we also had bonbon (chicken skewers) and konjac with roe. The bonbon were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The konjac with roe had a unique, popping texture inside the konjac, which was unusual and memorable. This restaurant has many dishes that go well with alcohol, and I think it's a great place to order various dishes and share them. It's also close to Imaike Station, making it a convenient place to visit when drinking in Imaike.

I visited this place through a friend's recommendation ✨ It was my first time trying thick chicken wings fried in sesame oil, and they were incredibly fragrant and delicious ♥️ The ones with sauce were also really tasty 😋 It was crowded, so reservations might be a must 💦 I'll definitely visit again~👍

It was my first time there, and the chicken wings were incredibly delicious! The flavor was rich and it paired perfectly with the drinks! The chicken wings were especially delicious; I could have eaten so many! The restaurant had a great atmosphere, and the staff were cheerful and friendly, making it a very comfortable place to be! It's also close to Imaike Station, so I'd like to go back for drinks again. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I went to Mutsumi Tebasaki Imaike branch. The chicken wings had a wonderfully crispy skin, and the secret sauce was truly delicious. It paired perfectly with alcohol, and I could have enjoyed several drinks. The staff were attentive and great at conversation, making for a very comfortable experience. I'll definitely visit again. 😊

This restaurant is a 3-minute walk from Umeda Station on various train lines. The main branch in Nagoya is a popular chicken wing izakaya that has been ranked No. 1 in the Nagoya area on Google reviews for three consecutive years, and now it has finally made its long-awaited debut in the Kansai region. Their specialty is, of course, chicken wings finished with a secret sauce that has been passed down since the restaurant's founding. With variations in flavor—black, red, and white—it's fun to compare them all. The "black" is a classic flavor with a sweet and spicy homemade secret sauce, the "white" is seasoned with salt, pepper, and sesame oil, and the "red" is a spicy and flavorful sauce. Of course, you'll want to order all of them! Each chicken wing is crispy and fragrant on the outside and juicy on the inside, making it the perfect accompaniment to beer. The sauce on your fingers is so delicious you could almost drink it! Another must-try dish is "Bonbon," a chicken wing prepared in an easy-to-eat style. Here too, you can enjoy the differences between three flavors: black, white, and red, so it would be fun to order several and share them. Since you can eat them with one hand, having a bonbon in your right hand and a medium-sized beer mug in your left is absolutely perfect. Besides chicken wings, they also have a wide variety of other dishes that are irresistible to drinkers, such as salt-grilled chicken thigh, neck, and cartilage, Nagoya's famous Hatcho miso-based doteni (beef tendon stew), beef tendon with ponzu sauce, and deep-fried yam. It's perfect for drinking with friends while snacking on various dishes, and it's a convenient place for a drink after work or for bar hopping in Umeda. This is a recommended restaurant if you want to enjoy Nagoya's chicken wing culture in Osaka.

I visited this restaurant in Umeda while searching for a delicious chicken wing restaurant. While their signature chicken wings are excellent, what really impressed me was the "bonbon." Since I was there, I tried all the different types of chicken wings and bonbon, and each had a distinctly different flavor, making it enjoyable to the very last bite. Among them, the "white" was particularly delicious. It has a simple salt-based seasoning, but it's incredibly tasty. You can really taste the chicken's umami, and it paired perfectly with alcohol. I also tried bonbon for the first time, and I was surprised by how delicious it was. Even if you only went for the chicken wings, I highly recommend ordering it as well. And not only was the food great, but the fact that the drinks were perfectly chilled was a big plus for me. The combination of hot chicken wings and bonbon with ice-cold drinks was fantastic. The staff were also very friendly and easy to talk to, and I had a great time chatting with them about the food. Not only is the food delicious, but the atmosphere and service are also so good that it makes you want to come back again. Next time I go, I'll definitely try all the chicken wings and bonbons!!

I went on opening day!! The chicken wings were incredibly delicious! It's the perfect place to casually drop in for a drink✨ The staff were friendly and I had a great time. I definitely want to go again!

This was my first visit! 🎶 I heard that this Nagoya restaurant had opened in Osaka, so I came to check it out. First of all, the owner is so cheerful and wonderful! Just chatting with him makes drinking enjoyable. And the food is incredibly delicious! 😭 Amazing! 🥹 They have red, black, and white chicken wings—flavors I haven't seen in Osaka before—and their specialty, Bonbon, is easy to eat and highly recommended! Highly recommended!! ️

This izakaya opened in December 2025, less than a 10-minute walk from Shinsakaemachi Station. I visited on a weekday evening. There are seven seats at the counter, and when I arrived around 6:15 PM, there were only two other groups of customers. The menu included signature dishes like chicken wings and bonbon skewers, grilled dishes like thighs, chicken neck, and pork innards, as well as a la carte dishes like konjac roe, red sausages, beef tendon with ponzu sauce, and deep-fried yam. I ordered the chicken wings and the dote-ni and four kinds of deep-fried marinades from the blackboard menu. First, I started with the dote-ni, which is pork innards rather than beef tendons, but it was reasonably priced at 380 yen, so it was fine. The sweet, rich, yet not overpowering miso was well-infused, and the tangy kick of chili pepper added a nice kick. Next, I ordered the chicken wings. They come in three flavors: black with a homemade sweet sauce, white with salt and pepper, and red with a homemade spicy sauce, of which I chose the black. The crispness was just right, not too strong, and the meat was juicy and went well with the rich sweet sauce. It was delicious. The other specialty, bonbon, is also made from chicken wings, but they have made it easier to eat and changed the sauce, so I would like to try it if I have the chance. Thank you for the meal.

An old building I've seen since the Showa era was under construction, and I was curious about what would be built there next, but then I saw a sign. A chicken wing restaurant chain that mainly operates in Sakae, Nagoya, is expanding to Ichinomiya! Looking forward to daytime drinking! So, I went on the grand reopening day. I don't particularly like the chicken wings from a certain famous chain. I only see them as "spicy beer snacks." However, these "white salt and pepper" chicken wings are proper cuisine. The only thing that bothers me is that when drinking alone, you can't enjoy a variety of things, so the "ordering in sets of three of one type" is a bit of a shame. They have "Red ★" bottled beer. Disposable plastic gloves are available at the counter, so it's safe for women with manicures.
