Sashimi, grilled, boiled, and fried local fish caught in the morning.

A restaurant where you can enjoy local fish from the waters around Izu. We have a contract with the head netter of the Akazawa fixed net on the east coast of Izu to purchase freshly caught seafood every morning.
The restaurant offers a set meal set that includes rice, miso soup, simmered dishes, vinegared dishes, and pickled vegetables, as well as your choice of sashimi, grilled fish, boiled fish, or fried fish, with recommended seafood written on a white board.
The most popular is the sashimi set meal, which includes four pieces of sashimi, and the type of sashimi changes daily. If there is a fish you do not like, tell them when you order and they can change it to another fish.

Hearty rice bowls are also popular

Several types of rice bowls are also available every day. The contents of the bowls change depending on the availability, but the "horse mackerel bowl" can be enjoyed almost all year round. It is a hearty bowl of rice topped with a generous portion of horse mackerel sashimi, salmon roe, yam, okra, and other ingredients.
In addition to the counter seating, the restaurant has a Japanese-style room that can be partitioned into three private rooms, where diners can enjoy their meals at a sunken kotatsu-style table. The space between the seats at the counter and in the Japanese-style room is wide, creating a relaxing atmosphere, and it is said that many customers spend an hour or two over lunch to enjoy a leisurely meal.

Rare tuna "Zutoro" (head and tail) seared to perfection

As the name of the restaurant suggests, the restaurant is proud of its tuna dishes. The restaurant purchases tuna by the piece, so you can enjoy eating rare parts of the tuna. In particular, the "head tuna," of which only a small amount can be obtained from a single tuna, is also called "brain," "bone marrow," or "meat of the wasp," and is as delicious as the big tuna. The "Tokusen Atoro Aburi-Don" set meal, which is quickly seared to lock in its flavor, is served in a limited number of eight servings per day.
The most popular is the "Tokusen Toro Aburi Sanmai-don" set meal, which includes not only the head and tuna, but also high quality otoro and seared fatty toro kinmedai from Inatori. It is a bowl of rice topped with tuna negitoro as well.

Braised local sea bream, a can't-miss dish in Izu

The owner holds the bidding rights for the Higashi Izu Inatori Port and also serves as a middleman, so there is an abundance of local fish other than tuna. In particular, the kinmedai (sea bream), which is synonymous with Izu fish, is only available in Inatori, which is said to be the most delicious fish in Izu. The "Boiled Sea Bream Set Meal" features the exquisite sea bream cooked to tender tenderness in a secret sauce with a hint of sweetness upon order.
The restaurant also offers sushi sets such as the "12-piece local fish nigiri set meal," sashimi, and a la carte dishes such as "deep-fried tuna head" that are recommended to be shared with friends.

Soba Restaurant Soba Sen

Soba-Sen, located near Sakura-no-sato at the foot of Mt. The owner of Soba-Sen has been in pursuit of "buckwheat noodles that taste good," and has arrived at the ultra-thin buckwheat noodles made from buckwheat produced in Kita-Sorachi in Hokkaido, milled in-house, and connected with underground water from Mount Amagi. Boiling time is as short as 5 seconds, allowing the delicate taste and aroma of the soba to stand out.
We recommend the "Suruga Seiro," in which fresh sakura shrimps that the owner himself purchases from the Yui Fishing Port are lavishly added to the dipping broth. The soba noodles are dipped in the hot dipping broth with fresh sakura shrimps, shimeji mushrooms, and fried egg.
The restaurant is surrounded by greenery with large trees and plants. In particular, you can enjoy a relaxing meal surrounded by greenery on the terrace where you can bring your dog.
