I used it for dinner. First of all, the tranquil atmosphere is wonderful. You enter through a street like a tea ceremony. You can watch the ingredients being prepared at the counter. We had a wonderful meal full of seasonal flavors that used a lot of fresh local fish and local vegetables. In particular, I will never forget the grilled golden sea bream and the pumpkin golden spit that was served before Halloween. It was also fun to be able to enjoy a variety of teas to match the dishes, like a tea pairing.

[Cha Kaiseki Onjaku] Second visit in July 2022 when I went on a food expedition with my management friends. I always ask my gourmet friends to make a reservation. This time as well, we went through a private room "separate room" and enjoyed the food with our friends without hesitation. I love this restaurant so much that when I go on a food expedition to Shizuoka, I request “Onseki” to be my food boss. If you had the same quality of food served in Tokyo, it would probably cost about three times as much. This time was also very very delicious. I want to go again! 😊 Thank you for the meal!
