About Seafood Izakaya Ren

A Tabelog 100 – Izakaya – WEST selection for 2024 and 2025, this 30-seat venue near Beppu Station delivers counter-focused seafood dining at JPY 6,000–7,999. The 10-seat counter offers direct kitchen access and real-time interaction, while the tatami section suits larger groups. Cash only, smoking allowed, and closed Sundays — book for straightforward izakaya quality without fine-dining formality.

At JPY 6,000–7,999, Seafood Izakaya Ren sits between Norary-Crary's JPY 5,000–5,999 range and Bungo Beef Steak no Mise Somuri Beppu honten at JPY 8,000–9,999. If you're deciding between seafood and beef, the steak house offers Bungo beef at a higher price with more polish; this izakaya trades refinement for counter intimacy and a broader sake selection. Karin occupies the same JPY 6,000–7,999 tier but serves different cuisine, compare formats and booking availability before deciding.

For counter seating and seafood focus, this venue wins over the alternatives in Beppu. Yakiniku Ichiriki serves yakiniku rather than fish, and Bepper's Tavern leans toward Western-style pub fare. If you want Tabelog-recognized izakaya dining with a counter experience, this is the choice in Beppu's onsen-town dining landscape. The smoking-allowed policy and cash-only payment narrow the field further, if neither bothers you, book here for the best seafood counter in the city at a fair price.
