A Renowned Seafood Izakaya Showcasing the Flavours of Toyama
This izakaya restaurant is located about a 7-minute walk from JR Takaoka Station. It is the only restaurant in Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture, to receive a Bib Gourmand award in "Michelin Guide Toyama/Ishikawa (Kanazawa) 2016 Special Edition". The owner, who grew up in a traditional Japanese catering restaurant founded in 1930, has inherited the traditions and techniques of the long-established restaurant and offers exceptional cuisine. In addition to premium fish such as blackthroat seaperch and white shrimp landed in Toyama Prefecture, the owner personally sources rare varieties of fresh fish, carefully selected through exclusive channels not generally found in distribution. The seafood dishes embody the essence of "kitokito," a Toyama dialect word meaning "fresh."

A Relaxing Space Offering Moments of Comfort
The first floor has counter seats and table seats with roller screens, while the second floor has private rooms with sunken kotatsu tables that can accommodate up to 50 people if the partitions are removed. The restaurant has been designed with privacy to ensure a comfortable stay for everyone, from locals to those visiting on business or sightseeing.
