Step into the heart of Waseda, where the timeless charm of Sanpin Shokudo awaits.

Established in 1965, this restaurant has seamlessly woven itself into the tapestry of Waseda University's culture, all thanks to the owner, Kitakami-san, affectionately known as Waseda's Grandpa.

A haven where past and present meet,Sanpin Shokudo serves more than just meals; it encapsulates the essence of Waseda's past through the unique local culinary tradition known as "Wasemeshi." And Kitakami-san, whose welcoming smile has turned the restaurant into a home away from home for Waseda students, isn’t just a chef, he's also a mentor fostering a warm and engaging atmosphere for all visitors.

Kitakami-san and Waseda students share a unique bond that bridges generations. Despite the ever-changing times, Sanpin Shokudo remains a steadfast symbol, offering not just meals but a nostalgic journey through Waseda's lively history.
