I went to Manpuku on two occasions and their service is friendly and food comes very quickly! Their restaurant motto is cheap and great tasting Japanese food, and this is certainly the case.
The shigure don (6.49$) has a generous portion of beef and onions on a bed of rice. The sauce is watered down and beef is slightly dry, but this has such a great value.
Their oden (2.99$) has a sweet and acidic soup base which I was not a fan of. It is served with fish cake and a large radish.
The restaurant reminds me of an Izakaya and they also have counter seating around the kitchen. Definitely a great pick for a wallet-friendly restaurant!
