Iwakuni, Yamaguchi, Japan｜NISHIKIGAWA

One of the best meals we have had in Japan! We had a guest visit us, so we got reservations for 5. Every dish was amazing--appetizer, Foie gras, seafood, wagyu beef, and dessert. We had a friend visiting and they took the time to write "Welcome to Iwakuni" on her dessert plate. Outstanding service and food. We will visit again!

Must call to make reservations, but the owner spoke English good enough to reserve for you. They ask which price point you want and will craft it accordingly. The ambience was very nice with jazz playing the whole time. Whole restaurant could seat 14, but it was only two of us the whole night. We went for the lower end dinner which started at ¥6600. First time having escargot and it was a great experience. That and the scallops were probably my favorite parts of the meal. Will most definitely come back again!

Absolutely amazing food! We had a party of seven so we were the only people in the restaurant which was lovely. We went with the ¥6000 set which included an appetizer plate, soup, a seafood dish, a meat dish and dessert. Great service and delicious food. I recommend making a reservation ahead of time.
