For a truly local experience, you have to visit Yasube, a classic, old-school izakaya that's always buzzing with Tokushima residents. It's the kind of place you go for fantastic, no-fuss food like incredibly fresh sashimi, yakitori, and comforting hot pot, all without breaking the bank. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, making it the perfect spot to settle in for an evening of great food and drinks, just a five-minute walk from JR Tokushima station.
