Very similar vibes. Both lean heavily into Japanese folklore with supernatural exchanges. Both have a young man, 'wander in,' and get tangled in the overall mystery of the establishment owner. They're fairly episodic with "be careful what you wish for" vibes in each mystery. Bakemono Yawa-zukushi feels a bit darker in tone overall, but if you enjoyed xxxHolic you'll probably dig it.
The mysterious and beautiful owner of a secretive magical business helps to grant people their wishes. However, the cost of the wishes can sometimes be higher than the customer understands, and the consequences even worse. Also, both owners are very fond of traditional Japanese dress and have equally mysterious helpers.
