01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Whether you need a thoroughly satisfying meal or just a few skewers after work, Charleston delivers an uncompromising focus on pork. The core of the menu revolves around substantial dishes built with Iwanaka pork. A perennial favorite is the "Puta-don" rice bowl, pairing fragrant grilled pork with red mochi rice for a deeply hearty bowl. Diners craving generous cuts of meat can turn to the tonteki set featuring a 200g pork steak, as well as miso pork cutlets, classic ginger pork, and an array of other hearty set meals.
Fresh Shibaura Yakiton and Small Plates for an Easy Drink
As evening sets in, the tables fill with freshly grilled yakiton skewers sourced directly from Shibaura. Guests can order favorite cuts individually, from top-selling shiro (intestine) and liver to hatsu (heart), kashira (head meat), harami (skirt), and tontoro (pork jowl). For sharing or when choices are hard to narrow down, the "5-Skewer Selection" and the "All-Stars Platter" are convenient options. Savory small bites such as slowly simmered motsu stew, braised tofu, crunchy market-style cucumbers, and gatsu-pon (vinegared pork stomach) round out the spread alongside draft beer, highballs, and Hoppy.
Located inside an office building, the shop maintains an easygoing, welcoming atmosphere equally suited to solo diners on their lunch break or colleagues unwinding over dinner. Late-night dining calls for finishing touches like the fragrant grilled onigiri or pork and egg rice bowl, making it a reliable, approachable neighborhood spot from day to night.
