Fresh and tasty.

I came to know that you can eat horse mackerel sashimi. There is a fish tank and a water tank over the counter, and the atmosphere looks like a delicious fish dish. I had the horse mackerel tataki set meal. Really delicious! I calmed down in no time.

This shop is located along Route 150 and is marked by a large ship. It opens at 5:00 pm, so I visited right when it opened. Although it is a long-established store, the interior is clean. There are several aquariums lined up in front of the counter, and you can watch the fish swimming around lively while waiting for your food to be served. This restaurant has a good reputation for its horse mackerel, so I chose the seared horse mackerel set meal, and it was a great decision! The condiments were a nice accent and brought out the flavor of the fresh horse mackerel. My companions ordered the fried horse mackerel set meal, and they said they were very satisfied with how fluffy and delicious it was, so I'd like to try it myself next time. The store staff also greeted me with a smile from beginning to end, making me feel comfortable.
