Delicious food friendly service and fair prices. Don’t be deterred by the shutters on the front street, look down the little alleyway to find the entrance :)

Open for a limited time of 5 years? A conscientious restaurant run by a married couple who are former fishmongers. Recommended brands of sake and udon noodles to finish are also delicious.

In addition to the personality of the owner and his wife, the quality and knowledge of the fish and the deliciousness of the soup stock are outstanding.
