Hakone, Kanagawa, Japan｜Dining Yamaboshi

Perfect small family-owned restaurant. They offered both western tables as well as Japanese-style seating. Food was some of the nicest we’ve had in Japan, real home-cooked meal vibes. The waiter and chef were both lovely (we’re pretty sure they’re a married couple) and insisted we leave a pin on the map showing where we were from. We were very happy with our meals but also liked the look of every other meal that came out of the kitchen.

lovely family owned restaurant with traditional tatami seating and dinner sets — the volcano curry chicken was really well done and meal sizes very generous!! loved the fried chicken and curry flavor, and the fish was also well seasoned. truly a gem

Went there 3 weeks ago. We ordered the set menu that they offered in a good price. It was pork sauté with veggies, miso soup, and salad. Also, had apple parfait for dessert. Everything tasted great, I finished all of them. The atmosphere was very homey and cozy. The staff didn’t speak English but was trying. There was an English menu, other two tables dining at the same time as us were also foreigners haha. Would definitely recommend! 😋
