串カツだるま
Also known as Daruma
The most famous kushikatsu spot in Shinsekai — fried skewers of meat, seafood, and vegetables dipped in a communal sweet sauce (which you are famously only allowed to dip into once). The main store keeps its old-school charm and is the one to hunt down if you can handle a wait; there's a branch right under Tsutenkaku Tower as backup.
Main store is the experience; branch under Tsutenkaku works if you're short on time. · Main store is cash-only. · Heads up: The 'no double-dipping' sauce rule is serious here.
