Just a bunch of club-going idiots with loud voices and no voice at the important parts. I don’t want to go back.
It is 14:00 on a weekday and only 20% of the customers are there. I could see inside the restaurant from the outside, so I knew how crowded it was. As soon as we entered the restaurant, we were greeted by loud voices saying “Welcome! and a loud voice said, “Welcome! I thought, “This is a good place to eat.

This Dandadan of gravy dumplings is also located in Shimokitazawa, and although I have never been in there, I actually had a very bad impression of it. The Shimokitazawa branch is located on a narrow street near Ozeki in front of the station. The reason for the bad impression is the cigarettes.
The interior of the restaurant is completely non-smoking, but smoking is allowed at one table facing the street. What is so bad about this is that they do not allow second-hand smoke inside their restaurant, but they are willing to spread second-hand smoke in an area where there are obviously more pedestrians than inside the restaurant.
Cigarettes can be smoked in the lower left seat.
Smoke sprays on passersby.
One of the reasons why cigarettes are no longer allowed in restaurants is because the secondhand smoke, passive smoking, is more harmful to the people around you than the smoker himself. In other words, they protect the few customers and staff, but do not care about the health of the people walking down the street who are not customers.
This is the reason why I was not impressed and disliked Dandan Dumplings for gravy dumplings.
When I entered the restaurant, which gave me such a bad impression, I found that it was a bar, as it was called a gyoza bar. I ordered the yaki-gyoza set meal. There was no pitcher of water. The water served looked like jasmine.
After saying “Irasshaimase (welcome)” when we entered the restaurant, the staff always kept shouting inside the restaurant. How are you? Please come in! Hello! Whenever someone calls out, the other staff members follow suit.
To say the least, it was noisy.
It may be fine when the restaurant is crowded, but when it is empty, it is just too loud. It’s like a junior high school club activity. If it was only noisy, it would have been the same when leaving the restaurant, but they don’t speak up when they should be speaking up.
When I was waiting for my order, the hall staff was distracted by something and bumped into the table I was sitting at, causing it to shake quite a bit.
To my surprise, they did not say anything. I was surprised that they didn’t say anything, even though they had been shouting a lot.
It is at times like this that one should say in a loud voice, “Excuse me! I was surprised that they didn’t say anything. As was the case when we left the restaurant, when we went to the cash register to pay our bill, the staff member who bumped into our table was working the register for another group of customers.
I didn’t mind waiting, but then the staff member said, “Please wait a moment,” in a quiet voice. Immediately after that, a loud voice said, “Hello! How are you doing? The staff member then said in a quiet voice, “Please wait a moment.
He was an idiot. They are the typical symbol of Japanese idiots who can only do things according to the manual. It’s exactly the same as the junior high school club activities.
Companies and stores that shout like these idiots have almost disappeared, but they are still there. And most of these stores are made up of a bunch of idiots.
It is no longer the case, but it was the same with Uniqlo in the past. Welcome! was the manual at UNIQLO. I was so surprised that I almost punched a store clerk when I was looking at clothes and he suddenly shouted next to me.
It is not enough to shout at everything. Moreover, this time, there were situations where I should have raised my voice, such as bumping into a table or making someone wait at the cash register.
I felt at the Shimokitazawa restaurant that they protect themselves from secondhand smoke, but they don’t care about others who are not customers, and that the manual is everything.
Perhaps the founder’s initial idea was to make the restaurant lively by making loud noises, so that customers could enjoy the atmosphere of a bar. However, as soon as it became a manual and a rule, the means to shout loudly became the goal.
Some employees do not want to shout loudly, and some even say that it is tedious to shout incessantly like a fool, and that they do not want to do so because it makes their voices dry up. However, now that it has become a rule, it must be obeyed.
In other words, they are supposed to shout as a means to achieve the goal of making customers enjoy themselves, but they are forced to do it because of the rules, because they are monitored by the company, by the store, by their bosses, and by other staff members, so shouting has become an objective. The company is watching you.
This is because if they don’t speak up, it will affect their own evaluation and they will be scolded. If your evaluation goes down, your salary will not go up, and it may even go down. Therefore, they speak out for their own sake. If they are not being watched, they will skip work, which is natural.
Therefore, even if they bump into a table or make someone wait at the cash register, they will not speak up.
To return to the story, the gyoza set meal arrived after more than 18 minutes. Before the gyoza arrived, we were told that it would be late because they had to remake the gyoza because they had burnt them or something. They said they were apologizing for one gyoza because they were late. They must have been baking the gyoza to death, why would they screw up and burn them, idiots?
They said, “It’s ready to eat without anything on it~,” but it tasted so weak that they put vinegar and soy sauce on it. Are they eating the dumplings by themselves? I guess the manual says to say this too. They are the symbol of idiots.
The dumplings themselves are not very tasty. As they are called “gravy dumplings,” there is a lot of gravy-like substance in the dumplings, but there is no flavor. The skin is thick, but the seeds are thin. To be frank, the 398 yen gyoza at Ozeki’s in Shimokitazawa is much better.
The Shimokitazawa Ozeki’s gyoza has a thin skin and a filling that is filled to the brim with a little bit of garlic, which makes it super tasty.
So, I have no desire to go back to the Dandadan Shinjuku 3-chome restaurant for gravy dumplings, because it is just a bunch of noisy idiots.
