Charcoal Grilled Kotobuki
Chiba Minato, Chuo Ward, Chiba city, Chiba, Japan
Charcoal Grilled Kotobuki is one of the clearer restaurant entries in the official Chiba City Tourist Guide, with a dedicated listing that confirms both its identity and its exact location. The page gives the address as Hotel Tetra B1, 7-1 Chiba Port, Chuo Ward, Chiba City, and presents it as an authentic Japanese-style izakaya. Its food proposition is straightforward but appealing: yakitori grilled over binchotan charcoal, plus fresh fish from Chiba and vegetables, served in a modern interior with warm wood finishes. The tourism text also stresses ingredients from Chiba Prefecture, making it a sensible option for visitors who want a casual meal with a local-produce angle rather than an anonymous chain-pub feel. The practical visitor information is better than average here. Official access notes place it about three minutes from JR Chiba Minato Station on the Keiyo Line, which makes it especially convenient for travellers staying around the bay-side or passing through the station area. The listing also confirms counter seating, tables and sunken kotatsu seating, with private hire possible, plus non-smoking status, take-away availability, English and Chinese menus, and barrier-free facilities including ramps and accessible toilets.
