[Sangenchaya: Marco] New Signature Dish 'Coarsely Ground Black Soba' with Enhanced Aroma and Texture, Plus Luxurious Summer Recommended Menus Launching in July!

2TAPS Inc. (Headquarters: Setagaya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Ryo Kawachi), which operates the creative Japanese izakaya "Sancha Nomiba Marco" (Sangenjaya), which enjoys overwhelming support in Sangenjaya, will begin offering its "Summer Recommended Menus," including the new signature dish "Coarsely Ground Black Soba" that will lead the restaurant into the future, starting in July 2026.

This launch features five new dishes that maximize the appeal of their ingredients. In addition to the black soba, which is perfect for finishing a meal and is meticulously crafted for its aroma, texture, and smooth finish, there are creative stand-up sushi dishes like "Thick-Cut Beef Tongue Steak Sushi" finished with moist low-temperature cooking, and a luxurious tartar made with "Yamari Shirasu," a brand from Wakayama Prefecture. Marco will deliver a variety of original menus that transform everyday moments into special dining experiences.

New Signature Dish "Coarsely Ground Black Soba" Pursuing Aroma, Texture, and Aftertaste, and Summer's Curated A La Carte to Stimulate the Senses

Starting in July 2026, "Coarsely Ground Black Soba" will be introduced as a new challenge for "Sancha Nomiba Marco." This dish is more than just a "shime" (finisher) at an izakaya; it is a bowl meticulously crafted for its rich aroma, robust texture, retained moisture, and the lingering aftertaste of its smooth finish. In addition to the classic dipping sauce, two unique dipping sauces, "Rich Pork Pepper" and "Thick Sesame," are available, proposing a new way to enjoy soba that stimulates the appetite for summer. Furthermore, luxurious creative menus, showcasing the meticulous craftsmanship that Marco has cultivated, will also be available.

Coarsely Ground Black Soba (1,800 yen)

A new signature dish that will lead Marco into the future. Enjoy variations in flavor with two types of dipping sauces.

Simmered Conger Eel Sushi (1,600 yen)

Luxurious sushi made with our plump, homemade simmered conger eel.

While being an izakaya, we pursue quality comparable to specialty restaurants.

Yamari Shirasu and Honmaguro Tataki Tartar (1,400 yen)

We layered the overflowing umami of Wakayama Prefecture's famous brand "Yamari Shirasu" with avocado and honmaguro tataki. It's an experiential dish where you break the egg yolk and wrap it in Korean seaweed.

Niigata Sanjo Farm Iizuka Asparagus and Tokishirazu Butter Sauté (1,600 yen)

Asparagus from Niigata Sanjo Farm Iizuka, grown fresh with snowmelt water, and the luxurious summer ingredient "Tokishirazu" (sockeye salmon) are simply sautéed in butter. The natural sweetness and richness of the ingredients fill your mouth.

[Restaurant Introduction] "Sancha Nomiba Marco," a Creative Japanese Izakaya for Adults that Adds Sophistication to Everyday Life

Since its opening in the competitive Sangenjaya area, "Sancha Nomiba Marco" has continued to attract many gourmands. What we value is adding newness and surprise (originality) tailored to modern lifestyles, while being based on Japan's traditional food culture and the warm, homey atmosphere of an izakaya.

As soon as you step inside, you'll find a vibrant yet calm and sophisticated space, suitable for a wide range of occasions, from everyday dates to business meetings and gatherings with important friends. With carefully selected Japanese sake, including famous brands from Ryo Kawachi's hometown of Niigata (such as Shihai-tsuru), and natural wines, along with dishes that change with the seasons, we continue to provide customers with emotions that go beyond mere "deliciousness."
