We frequented this restaurant 16 years ago when we lived in Hitoyoshi and it was our favorite restaurant. All these years later it has moved to a larger location, but is still as amazing as before. We literally travelled around the world to come to this place. WELL worth the trip!!! If you are fortunate enough to be in the beautiful town of Hitoyoshi, please do yourself a favor and eat at this restaurant!

It was delicious! I'm very satisfied!
You had to scan the QR code to order!
There were a lot of customers, and the phone service was getting better, so I thought it was a popular store!
I will go again \(^o^)/
Thank you for the meal!

The atmosphere was good in a private room. The quantity of each item was large and the price was a little high accordingly.
