Otsu, Shiga, Japan｜Jidoriya Onza

Fantastic food and service!

I tried the sukiyaki course. Usually there are six counters, but sometimes it's a curve ball. It has more volume than it looks. Even if you don't like sukiyaki, the warishita is not too sweet and the eggs are delicious, so you can enjoy it. We recommend ``Sukiyaki'' as you can also order it! We hope to see you again next time!

“Jidoriya Onza” is located in a rice field and a private house on the outskirts of Otsu City, Shiga Prefecture. When you get close to it, you may feel a little uneasy, wondering, "Is it really in such a place?" However, it is now famous all over the country, and almost every day many people come from all over the country in search of the finest free-range chickens raised at the adjacent Kawanaka Poultry Farm. customers are coming. At table seats (reservation required), you can enjoy shamo-nabe, sukiyaki, chicken-nabe, and free-range chicken salt-grilled courses. The meat is not only fresh, but also delicious free-range chicken, lots of vegetables, fried chicken, and rice cooked in a kettle at the end. Perfect for groups and families with children. And don't forget the counter seats, which are limited to 6 seats per day (reservation required). Here, we only offer the “Omi Jidori Eating Course”. No children allowed. As the name suggests, you can enjoy various parts of the finest "Omi chicken" and creative dishes that the chef is proud of. In this course, all 6 people will start at the same time, so please be careful not to be late. Anyway, it's definitely delicious, and it's a super cost-effective shop that you can definitely say there's no other shop like this. Both meals will fill you up, so I think it's best to eat less breakfast or lunch on the day, or not eat them at all.
