About this place
One of the pleasures of Jinpapa is being able to finish an evening of drinks at an izakaya with a plate of pasta. One diner who came specifically for the pasta said it was “very delicious”; another especially enjoyed the pasta and potato salad among the dishes they tried. Options include bacon cream pasta, carbonara, tomato pasta with scallops and paprika, and oil-based pasta with prawns and broccoli. The tomato-based pasta and arrabbiata can be adjusted for heat. For a lighter finish, choose a smaller dish; the prawn and broccoli pasta is also available in a large serving.
The menu’s mix of Western-style dishes and izakaya snacks is another draw. One diner who visited with 3 other people mentioned scallops and shiitake mushrooms sautéed in butter, a handmade hamburger steak, and bruschetta with cherry tomatoes and basil. The scallop and mushroom dish is listed on the menu, making it an option for sharing alongside a few snacks or for a more substantial meal. The lightly tipsy set includes a drink priced at no more than 550 yen, assorted sashimi with 3 varieties, and a small dish of the day; diners choose one item from 5 options. One person ordered the set while dining alone, so it can also be a way to start a solo meal with a drink.
Jinpapa in Teradacho is a dine-in izakaya with table service, and is also suited to groups. Reservations are available and are recommended for dinner. Payment is by cash only.
