    カツオのたたきを売りにしているお店なので、定食を頼むとカツオのたたきがついてくるものが多いです。 そのカツオのたたきですが、塩で食べるとカツオの旨味が味わえるのでお勧めです。 また薬味も豊富にあるので、好みの食べ方ができます。 ご飯は釜で炊いているので、ふっくらしていて魚との相性が良かったです。

    A small, backstreet restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere. Diners can enjoy oden (vegetables and other ingredients stewed in soy sauce and dashi) and kushi-katsu (fried pork skewers) as well as local sake. In addition to locals, the restaurant is frequented by tourists, particularly during the crab season, seeking crab sashimi, grilled crab, and crab kamameshi (rice with crab and other ingredients).

    If you want to eat bad and pay a lot, this is your place. 50€ for an awful food ... never eat so bad in Japan. A shame.
