About this place
One group’s account describes a meal that moved from sashimi and salad to grilled dishes, tempura and yakisoba to finish. Ginkgo nuts and cucumber dressed with plum also featured, alongside one grilled fish dish and one grilled chicken dish. It’s a picture of a shared meal built up with a little of this and a little of that.
Fish takes centre stage in a range of grilled dishes, including overnight-dried barracuda, grilled salmon belly, butter-grilled silver salmon and grilled mirin-marinated mackerel. Menu listings give the price of the barracuda and silver salmon dishes as 880 yen each, and the salmon belly as 840 yen. For something to nibble on, there are also minced tuna, aji namero (chopped and seasoned horse mackerel) and a soft, simmered tofu-and-egg dish. These make for a lighter way to eat than choosing a full grilled fish dish.
A lunch diner writes that their fish set meal came with a small side dish and ara-jiru, a soup made with fish scraps. At night, reviewers mention enjoying sake and shochu; the menu also lists draft beer and highballs. For a final bite, options include a meat udon described as sweet, a mixed-rice rice ball and clam soup.
