This Japanese kappo cuisine restaurant is a one-minute walk from Kannai Station and can also be reached by getting off at the Bashamichi bus stop and taking an immediate left followed by another left. The longstanding restaurant opened in 1872. The tatami room on the third floor can accommodate up to 40 people and can be reserved for parties, wakes, class reunions, and other events.
