Store locations

We operate in a wide variety of areas—from bustling city centers near train stations to roadside locations across the country. In urban areas, our izakaya-style restaurants cater to office workers and students, while in suburban settings, we offer a family-friendly format, often with yakiniku. We also specialize in converting former yakiniku or izakaya spaces into new business models tailored to local needs.

Strong brand power

Akakara boasts strong brand recognition and popularity throughout Japan, thanks to its nationwide presence and a wide range of OEM products, including hot pot soup bases. Even after more than 20 years since its first opening, Akakara continues to attract media attention with creative menu offerings—such as ultra-spicy and Moon viewing hot pots—frequently featured on television and social media.
