Mucho Gracias

Sipping a cold beer or a mixed drink while grazing on tapas passed across the counter is the easy rhythm of Mucho Gracias. Tucked into Nishi-Asakusa, this downtown shot bar pays as much attention to its kitchen as its drinks shelf. Beside classic bar pours, the food menu includes popular staples like mushroom goulash and burritos, complemented by rotating daily dishes that make it simple to pair a substantial plate with whatever is in your glass.

The beverage selection covers plenty of ground, spanning beers, varied cocktails, and hard liquors to suit different tastes. Run by an approachable, music-loving owner, the interior carries a retro mood with a casual, calm air, where guests can settle in comfortably with table service. Because the bar stays open late into the night and accepts seat reservations, it works just as well for an unhurried nightcap as it does for wrapping up an evening of dining around Asakusa.
