Oi, Kanagawa, Japan｜Manten

Enjoy seasonal ingredients with freshly fried tempura. The prices may seem a little high, but considering you can enjoy the same level of quality as you would at a high-end store, I think it's quite reasonable. Decided to visit again!

The tempura I had before when there was a store along National Route 255 was so delicious I couldn't forget it...so when I received information that they had relocated, I went to eat with my mom. The new store is located on the site of a former Kamameshi restaurant, has a large parking lot, and has a counter and tables inside. This time, I sat at the counter and ordered the manten set meal, which bears the restaurant's name. The tempura was first served with two types of vegetables (okra and eggplant), a conger eel bone, and a conger eel bone. While watching my pace, I found two shrimps and squid. Finally, a freshly fried conger eel was cut in half and served to us. After all, eating freshly fried tempura at the counter was truly delicious and unforgettable. The tempura sauce was also slightly sweet to my liking. The set meal rice was also cooked fluffy and delicious. I also wanted to eat freshly fried tempura at the counter. Thank you for the meal. I visited again with my mother on the first day of the Obon holiday. This time, I ordered the seasonal tempura set meal, which was not available during Golden Week. This month's dish was Hokkai octopus tempura set meal. At first, I had tempura with eggplant, maitake mushrooms, squid, and Manganji chili peppers. The Manganji peppers and squid were cut in half before being served, so they were easy to eat. After that, I had two pieces of shrimp tempura, Hokkaido octopus, ginger, and green onion kakiage. The kakiage was very filling. This volume at this price. And most of all, I was happy with the shop owner's attentiveness. What will be your next seasonal tempura set meal? I want to go eat there again. At the end of September, I wanted to try Manten's tempura again for the first time in a while. This time I ordered the seasonal tempura set meal. This month it was autumn salmon set meal. First, we were served tentsuyu, matcha salt, salad, and grated salmon roe. Freshly fried tempura was served one after another behind the counter. First up is shimeji mushroom tempura. Fragrant matsutake mushrooms, flavored shimeji mushrooms. As I said, the shimeji mushroom tempura had a strong taste. The first dish will raise your expectations for the next tempura. Next was eggplant tempura, log shiitake mushroom, and shrimp paste tempura. Don't feed your wife autumn eggplants. I was relieved by the gentle taste of the juicy eggplant, raw shiitake mushrooms, and ground shrimp. Next was tempura of kiss, autumn salmon, and shrimp. The local kisu caught in Odawara, the main ingredient, autumn salmon, and the standard shrimp for tempura were all so delicious I was speechless. Lastly, we were served kakiage of maitake mushrooms and small sticks. The kakiage was also satisfying and filled my stomach. Despite the short notice reservation, I was able to enjoy such delicious freshly fried tempura, and I am filled with gratitude to everyone at the restaurant. I'm really thankful to you. I'm looking forward to the next seasonal tempura set meal.

It was delicious. It was relocated and the atmosphere was good, and the tempura was delicious without complaint. Cospa is also sufficient and satisfying.
