About 5 YEN IZAKAYA

Perched on the second floor above Sukhumvit, 5 YEN IZAKAYA pairs cold draft beer with hot plates built for clocking out. After-hours crowds head straight upstairs for crisp, glazed tebasaki wings—skipping standard sashimi spreads for sweet soy, garlic, and chili. Live sets and weekend DJs drive the room's pulse, while counter stools look straight out over the traffic and the pedestrian link-bridge below.

  • Elevated Street Views: Second-floor glass window seats look straight out over Sukhumvit Road and the M District pedestrian skybridge.
  • Tebasaki & Cold Beer: Crispy chicken wings tossed in original, cheese, or chili seasonings take center stage over raw fish, paired with cold draft pours.
  • Live Sets & Weekend DJs: Live bands and DJ sets keep the room lively on weekend evenings without crowding out the conversation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the signature dishes to order?

The izakaya specializes in chicken rather than raw fish or sushi, with its signature dish being crispy Oita-style tebasaki fried chicken wings available in flavors like original sweet-savory sauce, spicy shichimi chili, and habanero. Cooked rice bowls like Buta Kakuni Don (braised pork belly) and Hamburg don are also customer staples.

How do you find the entrance?

The venue is tucked away on the second floor of a commercial building between Sukhumvit 33 and 33/1, across from Benchasiri Park and the M District skywalk. Look for the red chicken logo sign near the street and take the elevator or stairs up to the wooden sliding door.

Does the restaurant feature live music?

Yes, the venue features live musical performances and DJ sets, typically running on weekend evenings starting around 8:00 PM. Keep in mind the music can get lively and loud.

Where can visitors park when visiting?

While there is no dedicated on-site parking at the building, guests arriving by car can park nearby at EmQuartier or in the Villa Market area (especially late at night), though taking the BTS Skytrain to Phrom Phong Station (Exit 5) is recommended.
