Kenzo is a restaurant in the Kumamoto area that specializes in serving baniku, which is Japanese for horse meat. Despite sounding unusual to Westerners, baniku is a sweet, lean, and protein-rich meat that's worth trying at least once. The restaurant offers sashimi moriawase consisting of tongue, heart, liver, hearts blood vessel, and brisket made from carefully selected horse meat. Customers have praised the wonderful service and delicious food at Kenzo.
I tried horsemeat for the first time and can definitely recommend the basashi. I also tried the banigiri, which wasn't bad, but nothing compared to basashi. Next time I'll try the horse intestine tempura 😁

Kenzo food is great. Staff is very welcoming. Horse meat is prepared perfectly. I very recommend. I asked wife: do you like food. She said: yes.
Enrico P — Google review
Came here for all things horse meat and was very impressed with the overall quality, especially the bazashi. Their karashi renkon is also a must try. Very busy little restaurant so reservations are recommended. Would definitely come back again.
Dimitry C — Google review
I walked downstairs and they immediately flashed a sign through the glass door that they were full for the night at 730pm before even asking if I had a reservation. So impossible to tell if they don't want my yen because it comes from the wrong colored hands or if that's their default excuse to turn away anyone even remotely foreign. Either way... bet.
Cranston C — Google review
Never got to ear here. Waited 1/2 hr for the place to open, as we didn’t make reservations. When they opened, we were told no kids allowed, as they served alcohol. Disappointed. Avoid if you’re heading there with kids below the drinking age.
Jonathan K — Google review
SCAM!!! Please be aware of scam running in this place. It is the first time we saw something like this in over a month traveling across Japan. Upon sitting they served us a miso soup, which we have not requested and later they put it as additional charge (around 1000 yen) on our bill. We accepted the bill not to argue with them. Unfortunately, such accidents shed no good light on the Japanese hospitality in general. The food from normal to not good. The horse meat sashimi was frozen as if it was just taken from fridge. The grilled horse meat was cold, if it was grilled a while ago. The portions are meticulous and I am not sure how much you need to eat there to get full. Apparently there are better places in the city. Avoid this place especially if you are not from Japan.

Chinese noodle restaurant
Noodle shop
Kokutei is a renowned ramen shop located in Nishi Ward, Kumamoto City, offering a delectable variety of Kumamoto ramen. The shop takes pride in producing its own medium-thick and perfectly textured noodles, as well as the chashu pork. One of their signature elements is the fragrant charred garlic oil that adds a slightly bitter yet aromatic flavor to the dish.
Love the ramen here for its garlicky taste. It’s simple to order from the vending machine before being shown to your seat. I chose the specialty and was given a choice of raw eggs or boiled ramen egg. I chose the latter. It is a walking distance from Kumamoto Station.
June L — Google review
Tamagoiri Ramen, Gyoza. Customers can choose between two raw egg yolks or the regular ramen egg for their Kumamoto-style Tonkotsu Ramen. Tonkotsu broth which originated from nearby Hakata is perhaps the default ramen broth in the Kyushu region here. Very tasty. There are several outlets here and I visited the main stall about 10 mins drive from the city.
Peter L — Google review
Came approx 5:45pm on a weekday (public holiday - Sports Day), no queue. Broth had no depth, was very salty (likely due to black garlic + possibly some MSG?) and under to finish due to that. Dish could definitely have been more balanced Liked the change of having raw egg yolks rather than soft boiled eggs. Pork was tender. Wouldn't recommend given the options of ramen shops around.
Mel — Google review
Went there acknowledging controversial reviews, finally I made first hand experience on the bowl. Ate ramen, fried rice and gyoza. Bowl looks pretty delicious. Gyozas taste good. Fried rice is satisfactory. Roast garlic oil on top of bowl is appealing and tastes good. However, almost all other components are only fair. No choice for harder/softer noodles, bean sprouts are a bit dated, char siu is average, most disappointing is the soup is too ‘diluted’ and a bit salty to overcome taste buds. I drank a whole bowl of soup when I ate 無敵家’s ramen, but I can’t do it here. Overall, a bit disappointing. Hope they’ll be better.
Sunny S — Google review
Convenient location and price for set meal, loved the fried rice and Gyoza. Ramen is decent, but tasted like a very basic Tonkotsu ramen in my opinion. The egg yolks are an interesting gimmick however they only lasted for 2-3 creamy bites as once it's broken and mixed into the soup, it doesn't alter the flavour/texture enough to make a difference. Nice place for quick lunch otherwise near the station, not very busy at this location
Stanley L — Google review
Came on a weekend evening at 7pm, no queue and service is good. Restaurant is in a nice neighbourhood and the walk from the main road is about 5 to 10 mins. Noodle taste good, chewy and al dente, soup has loads of garlic taste so if you are someone who dislike garlic you may not enjoy it. Will i travel all the way here to eat again, unlikely... but it's definitely worth a try.

Delicious bowl of black garlic ramen. The garlicky soup was flavourful and filled with bean sprouts. The fried rice was unexpectedly full of wok hei.

Izakaya restaurant
Japanese regional restaurant
Yakitori restaurant
If you're on the hunt for authentic Kumamoto cuisine, look no further than "馬刺しと焼き鳥 熊本郷土グルメの店 アマケン." This charming izakaya specializes in basashi, or horse sashimi, and offers a delightful array of yakitori skewers that are both delicious and budget-friendly.
This is an izakaya where you can enjoy delicious Amakusa ingredients. The interior is comfortable with a warm wooden feel. Kumamoto's specialty horse meat sashimi has a sweet texture that melts in your mouth. An unusual specialty is gourd pickles, small gourds pickled in plum vinegar, with a refreshing texture and subtle plum flavor. This is a recommended restaurant for tourists in Kumamoto.

Amazing place to take a bite and drink the Kumamoto special cuisine. My recommendation is to try the horse meat, lotus root and the lemon sour cocktails. All the menu is in Japanese so it will be better that someone who can read advance japanese goes with you.
Jonathan Z — Google review
(Translated by Google) The chopstick rest read, "I don't trust fish!!," so I was excited to see what kind of fish dishes would be served. There was no sashimi on the menu, but the whole grilled Atka mackerel and shrimp were impressive. The horse meat dishes, unique to Kumamoto, were also delicious. Other dishes I particularly enjoyed were the charcoal-grilled green peppers and shiitake mushrooms; the thick peppers were perfectly salted. What's more, all-you-can-drink shochu and highballs (excluding draft beer) were offered for just 980 yen, which I really liked and felt was a reflection of the restaurant's efforts. I really enjoyed it, and I've attached a photo of the cool Jim Beam highball cup. (Original) 箸置きに「俺は魚信じない!!」と書いてあったので、どんな魚料理が出てくるのか期待に胸を膨らませました。 メニューに刺身はありませんでしたが、ホッケとエビの姿焼きが印象的でした。 また、熊本ならではの馬肉料理も大変美味しかったです。 その他で特に気に入ったのがピーマンと椎茸の炭火焼きで、肉厚ピーマンの絶妙な塩加減がたまりませんでした。 さらに、焼酎やハイボールの飲み放題(生ビール除く)が980円という価格で提供されており、お店の努力が感じられて非常に気に入っております。 とても楽しみました、かっこいいジムビームハイボールのカップの写真も添えておきます。

(Translated by Google) I was looking for an izakaya where I could eat Amakusa seafood and Kumamoto local cuisine and found this one. It must have been too popular because I was kicked out right on time, but the food was delicious. The atmosphere was not bad, but it's a shame that the service was not very good. The yakitori was also delicious. (Original) 天草の海鮮と熊本郷土料理が食べれる居酒屋を探して見つけました。人気すぎるのか時間ぴったりで追い出されてしまいましたが、料理は美味しかった。雰囲気も悪くないだけにサービスがあまり良くないのが残念。焼き鳥も美味かった。

(Translated by Google) This was the worst part of my Kumamoto trip. I really regretted my money. I felt bad. I ordered 10 kinds of skewers and got 5 more. I ordered grilled sardines. The 10 kinds came out relatively quickly, but the grilled sardines came out in about 50 minutes. The 5 kinds of skewers took over an hour. And they burned them all. I hope you run your business with integrity!! (For reference, there was only one group when we arrived, but more customers came later. But I think they missed our menu.) I spent 100,000 won and felt really bad. It was such a waste of money. It's not even worth 1 star!!!!

(Translated by Google) Amakusa? Where's the fish? Salt? Soy sauce? The food was delicious. However, I was surprised when the staff member next to me handed the grilled rice ball with his bare hands and then microwaved it! The young staff member wiped his hands on his clothes. Personally, I was a little hesitant to see people in the kitchen wearing nail polish? False nails? Maybe it's common these days. I almost overlooked it, but the chopstick lottery was a novelty. The restaurant was packed with customers as soon as we entered. The restaurant is a little small, so it's difficult to relax and unwind. Unfortunately, they don't have any local Amakusa sake here either. It's helpful that smoking is allowed in restaurants, but be careful if you don't like smoking. (Original) 天草?魚はどこ?塩?醤油? 料理は美味しかったです。 ただ、、焼きおにぎりを素手で隣にいた店員さんにバトンして電子レンジでチンされてたのはビックリ! 若い店員さん洋服で手を拭ってるし 個人的には、厨房にいて、ネイル?付け爪?は抵抗ありました。今時は当たり前なのかもしれませんが。 見落としそうでしたが、箸のくじは斬新でした。 入店してすぐにお客さん満員になってました。 店内が、少し狭いのでゆっくりまったりとは厳しい感じです。 こちらには、天草の地酒もなく残念。 喫煙出来るお店は助かりますが、苦手な方はご注意下さい。

Nene is a recently relocated restaurant in Kumamoto that offers a delightful dining experience. The friendly and skilled general, trained in Kyoto, ensures a pleasant atmosphere while the owner, landlady, and staff contribute to the comfortable ambiance. The omakase menu is highly recommended as every dish is wonderful and the service is fantastic. Sitting at the counter provides a beautiful view of Kumamoto Castle and an opportunity to watch the chef's skills. The calm atmosphere allows for peaceful enjoyment without being too formal.
Nene is amazing! This was my second visit, but I apparently forgot to post a review last time. The service is fantastic, and the food and drink... Just super delicious! I had the omakase menu, and it did not disappoint in the least. Every dish was wonderful! I highly recommend sitting at the counter. There's a beautiful view of Kumamoto Castle from the nearby window as a bonus! And you get to watch the skills of the chef preparing your food. ☺️👍👍 I'll definitely be back! 🥰

Strong Warning: Avoid Kumamoto Nene ねね at All Costs! I booked dinner at Kumamoto Nene ねね on the 8th well in advance for this trip. Having seen so many recommendations on Xiaohongshu, I was really looking forward to it—so much so that I went for the highest-priced dinner course at ¥22,000. But what followed turned out to be nothing short of a fried vegetable feast! Aside from the fairly decent beef, the sashimi portion was ridiculously small. Almost everything else was some form of vegetable: fried eggplant, and believe it or not, even fermented tofu… It was truly an eye-opener. And here’s the kicker: the server initially brought out two portions of sea urchin (I heard the name through their translator device), only to mysteriously take them away later and replace them with something else. Are they adjusting dishes based on the customer? Or did the kitchen suddenly decide sea urchin wasn’t worthy of customers paying this price? The whole performance was nothing short of astonishing. So, consider this a friendly warning: if you’re thinking of making a reservation, make sure you ask about the menu specifics in advance—unless you enjoy ending your meal deeply disappointed.
三师兄 — Google review
This omakase was just average. The ingredients were fresh. The service was not very warm or friendly. It felt a bit cold. It costs too much for what you get. You can find better meals for the same price elsewhere. The overall experience was not special. I cannot recommend this place because the value is poor.

(Translated by Google) Chef Nakamura Hiroyuki, a native of Kumamoto, trained in Kyoto for over ten years before returning to his hometown to set up shop. The bounty of Kumamoto's land and sea shines through with the delicate techniques of Kyoto cuisine. The appetizer heralds the arrival of autumn with horse mackerel and figs. The soup harmonizes Manganji green pepper and crab meat with a clear broth. The sashimi features Tosei-ma and spiny lobster, which go well with the local sake "Ubudo." The grilled dishes include Akabae-futo and red eggplant, Yuan-yaki, and deep-fried Tosei-ma, creating an appetizing trio of seafood. When the chef opens the lid, the aroma of steaming Hinohikari rice from Yamato Town greets us. We pair the plump, delicious taste with freshly grilled Kumamoto Wagyu beef and devour it with gusto. "Would you like more rice?" "Yes, please." (Original) 熊本出身の中村弘幸大将は、京都で十年以上の修業を積んだ後、故郷に戻り店を構えた。熊本の山海の幸が、京料理の繊細な技で輝く。 先付は鯔と無花果で秋の訪れを告げる。椀物は万願寺青椒と蟹身、清らかな出汁が調和する。刺身は東星斑と伊勢海老、地酒「産土」がよく合う。 焼物は赤羽太と赤茄子、幽庵焼き、東星斑の唐揚げと、海の幸三重奏が食欲をそそる。 大将が蓋を開けると、山都町産ヒノヒカリ新米の湯立つ香り。ふっくらとした美味しさに、炙り立ての熊本和牛を合わせて夢中で頬張る。「ご飯おかわりは?」「では、少しお願いします」

Keika Ramen is a renowned Kumamoto ramen restaurant with branches in Tokyo. Their classic dish, the Keika Ramen, features a rich and creamy soup made from carefully selected pork bones, chicken bones, and Ako salt. The shop's secret lies in using garlic oil to enhance the flavor of their ramen. Located on the 1st floor of a building facing Sakae Street, it has become popular nationwide due to its delicious offerings.
Taste super good to me. The belly fat pork chunk is really really good. Fried rice is super good as well. Everything feels retro and with history, from the billboard outside the resto to the container to hold chopsticks.

Willie L — Google review
Trying THE Kumamoto ramen and the place wasn’t crowded on a Wednesday evening. Saw the 3.9 star rating and decided on this place over the 3.6 star for a somewhat similar ramen offering. The ramen had a depth in flavor thanks to the black garlic and they also had spicy options. They had an option to add on the set for like 500¥ with white rice and 800¥ with fried rice. You can also choose gyoza or fried pork for sides. If you are going as a couple, I would recommend getting one set to share as you can see their portions are huge! It’s located just off the shopping arcade area so it’s easy to find - parking is fairly expensive in this part of town so we parked around a 8min walk from this store and it costs us only 100¥ for 50mins compared to the 100¥ for 20 mins nearby. Take your pick of ramen from this street as there are so many choices. Choose what you fancy, but we wanted to try the local ramen.

Dived into the food and forgot to take a photo first, it smelled too good and it was delicious! The soup has an appetite opening sesame possibly garlic infused scent, the soup is not thick like hakata tonkotsu- it was light and soupy, on the saltier side and full of flavour. The cuts of meat were thick and generous. We enjoyed it! Very affordable and delicious meal ☺️ also had the fried rice which had very good flavour and strong wok hei- exactly how you’d want fried rice to taste! Staff could tell we were tourists! After ordering at the vending machine they directed us to our seat where they had placed ice cold cups of black tea for us, thought it was such a thoughtful gesture 🥰

The soup is very very salty. The portion is big. It is not really tasty but can make you full. I guess that’s the style of Kumamoto ramen. If working in hard labor all day long and starving, I would appreciate this kind of food more.

SUGANOYA Ginza Street Store is a renowned restaurant known for its modern setting and horse meat dishes, including the unique experience of horse sashimi. The menu offers various options such as sushi and steak courses, providing flexibility for those who may be hesitant to try raw meat. Despite initial skepticism, many have found the experience to be mind-blowing and highly recommend trying it. The restaurant takes care to ensure that patrons understand the nature of their cuisine before being seated.
Marvelous & very delicious Horse steak & Kaiseok cuisine in Kumamoto. A Taiwanese commented that he would fly from Taiwan to come here to have a horse steak in the review. I was sold & cane over to try it as well. Indeed, the horse steak was prepared & cooked perfectly to let you fully enjoyed in many ways. Additionally, several different horse meat were also prepared in many different cooking style. Frankly speaking, it definitely worthy you fly from anywhere on this planet to try it. Highly recommended.

Horse sashimi is a regional delicacy here in Kumamoto. There are many restaurants that serve horse sashimi here but we decided to eat here mostly because we did not reserve in advanced at other popular places and this was not full. As they are located in a hotel, prices are on the higher end. They have three different premium set from 8,800 to 11,800 per person. We tried the 8,800 set and frankly, we were not disappointed. The set menu offered different version of horse meat, from sashimi to grilled to sushi style. We were very full after that. Overall a good experience.

At first, I was very sceptical and strongly appalled with the idea of eating horse meat, not to mention raw. However, I would say it is a mind blowing experience that you should try here at Suganoya Ginza Street Store. It is out of the moon! I had the sushi set and it was exceptionally delicious . The meat was so fresh that there was no smell at all. I am very sensitive to smell and was worried that it is of a peculiar taste. The standard set does not do justice on how good it can be so, I strongly recommend the Sushi Set for lunch. For the price I think it is totally worth it. I would definitely come back again at this particular branch. It was highly recommended by 2 of the locals that I met. Different branch seems to be serving different dishes. Apparently there are different grades of horse meat so why not try the best. I would say it would be a regret to have missed this.

Great first time experiencing horse sashimi (basashi). They offer multiple options (sushi, steak, etc) so you're not restricted to having raw meat if you don't want to commit. We had the sushi and steak course and it ended up being really tasty - would definitely recommend coming here for lunch if you want an awesome first experience given that the lunch course is much cheaper than dinner (under ¥4000). Ambience was great and service was top notch - ごちそうさまでした!

Japanese restaurant AOYAGI is a long-standing establishment with a tranquil atmosphere, offering a variety of traditional dishes including horse meat and seafood. The menu features specialties such as basashi horse meat sashimi, local fish sashimi, horse meat sukiyaki, boiled swordfish, karashi-renkon (spicy lotus root), guru-guru rolled green onion, and traditional kamameshi. Guests have praised the excellent quality of Kumamoto local food served at reasonable prices.
The food is absolutely amazing. It was such a delight watching the chef work, we really appreciated him working with the staff to tell us about the meal. The host and hostess were also so good, providing warm friendly conversation while we enjoyed the meal. It was a really wonderful time and it makes me sad to have to return to Australia. Hoping we can come here again

Wow, the food at this wonderful is absolutely delicious. We were very keen to try some local Kumamoto produce and this was very special. Upon arrival we were greeted so well, and shown to an area where we chose our own place to sit because it was empty at this time. (It filled up a bit after a while but not too busy). It’s a top quality restaurant, calm and relaxed, superb environment. Our waitress was so polite and attentive too! So, we had.. the Original Kamameshizenn, Aoyagi's Gomoku Kamameshi has 2 small bowls, sashimi, salad, seasonal mini tempura, chawanmushi, soup, pickled vegetables, homemade tyousenname. Kamameshi is flavored rice with ingredients from the mountains and sea cooked in an individual pot using local natural spring water. The recipe for the stockof Kamameshi has never left the premises und been kept a secret since the establishment of the restaurant. Each pot of rice is cooked to order. This fine meal is the signature dish of the Aoyagi restaurant, we loved it. We also had: Hibarizenn, containing Aoyagi's specialty horse sukiyaki. (You can change it to red beef sukiyaki for 500 yen if you wish but we didn’t, and we really enjoyed the horse meat.) It comes with White rice, takana-zuke (pickled mustard), hitoji no guru guru, mustard lotus root, salad, chawanmushi (steamed egg custard) A fantastic restaurant very very highly recommend for top-quality set lunches at very reasonable prices, ¥3,300 per person for the meals. Thanks for an amazing meal !

An unforgettable experience! This local restaurant in Kumamoto truly embodies kindness and hospitality. They didn’t have halal meat available that day, but the staff went above and beyond and prepared a special meal just for me. Their extraordinary kindness and the warm welcome I received touched me deeply. The atmosphere is so friendly and family-like — full of laughter and good vibes, even with the language barrier. A beautiful reminder of the generosity and heart of Kumamoto. Highly recommended!

The best restaurant for trying Kumamoto regional cuisine - love their lunch sets! I had really wanted to try all the local foods like Karashi Renkon (mustard lotus root), horse sashimi & the steamed rice (Kamameshi) using local regional ingredients. Aoyagi delivered one of the best meals I’ve had in Japan on my travels - love how they preserved the authenticity of the ingredients without over seasoning - loved it !

## Exceptional Dining Experience at AOYAGI Kumamoto We had a fantastic dinner at AOYAGI! The food was exceptional, with two outstanding options: - *Local Set*: The horse sashashi and sukiyaki were highlights. - *Seasonal Course*: Fresh fish sashimi and delicious Shabu Shabu. The service was top-notch, esp. Hirose san, making for a truly memorable experience. We highly recommend AOYAGI for a delicious and authentic Japanese meal. 5 stars!

(Translated by Google) Yakiniku specializing in horse meat near the airport. A restaurant with everything from horse sashimi to yakiniku to salads. For yakiniku, we definitely recommend the special selection with marbling. The assortment of horse sashimi is also good. Sauce, salt sauce, and Amakusa salt to your liking. Although the alcohol prices are a little high, there are a wide variety of flavors, including Hi-no-Kuni Beer, highballs, and various Kumamoto fruit juice flavors. It's perfect for groups to enjoy, but if you add too much, you'll be surprised at the bill... Plan your use... The special selection costs 3,000 yen per person... After eating the special selection, you won't be able to eat average meat anymore... We recommend eating it with Amakusa salt. (Original) 空港からほど近い馬肉専門焼肉。 馬刺し、焼肉、サラダ、なんでもありのお店。 焼肉はサシが入った特選が断然おススメ。 馬刺しも盛り合わせがgood。 タレ、塩ダレ、天草の塩のお好みで。 お酒の値段がやや高いが火の国ビールなど、ハイボールも様々な熊本の果汁テイストが入った物も多く多種多様な味わい。 団体で楽しむにはもってこいですが、追加しすぎるとお会計で驚くことに… ご利用は計画的に… 特選は1人前3.000円します… 特選食べた後は並みの肉は食べれなくなります… 天草の塩で食べるのがオススメ。

(Translated by Google) Both the meat and horse sashimi were delicious. The meat curry in the salad bar corner is super delicious! My companion praised it highly. The soft serve ice cream at the drink bar was delicious, and it was nice to be able to enjoy a variety of toppings. I think it's filling and the cost performance is not bad. Usually, I only used the bakery next door, but from now on I would like to use the restaurant as well.

SUGANOYA Shinshigai Store is a renowned restaurant in Kumamoto, known for serving delicious basashi, a must-try local delicacy highly recommended by locals. The steamed buns with horse meat and the highest grade beef and pork shabu sets are particularly popular among visitors. The apple-based sauce served with the dishes adds a delightful sweetness that complements the meat perfectly.

Syokudo and Teishoku restaurant
Katsumi Shokudo, established in 1967, is a renowned spot for savoring Kumamoto's horse horumon. It's highly popular among both locals and tourists. The tender simmered motsu is a must-try here, although the place tends to be quite crowded with queues being common. Despite the wait, the experience is well worth it.
This restaurant is so Japanese style that people who find a local style must visit here! Food is so nice, I think dinner will be better with some drinks!

If you're after tender simmered motsu - this is a must visit establishment. Be careful since the place seems to be usually packed and you might have to queue. However, the wait is definitely worth it. I was expecting the usual chewy and slightly gamey mostu but I was blown away by how soft and tender and odorless the motsu here is. My only regret is having opted for the small side of motsu instead of ordering it as the main plate - a mistake I will make sure not to repeat on my next visit to Kumamoto!

(Translated by Google) I had the miso stewed offal set meal with medium-sized rice and large portions. The unique smell of horse offal is addictively delicious. The offal is so soft you can cut it with chopsticks. The seasoning is excellent and makes you want to eat more rice. The namasuka leaves your mouth feeling refreshed, so you can enjoy it until the very end. The miso stew is served incredibly quickly. They provide children's tableware. There are tables, tatami rooms, and a counter for seating. There is parking on the restaurant's premises and nearby. When the restaurant is full, you write your name and wait. Since the restaurant moved, the interior has been kept very clean. I think the customer service is good. I'd like to visit again. Thank you for the meal.

I had searched for horse sashimi and went there, but most of the customers were ordering innards. I had the horse sashimi set meal. It was fresh, had no unpleasant odor and was delicious. However, I wish I had eaten a little more, and the portion was a little larger. My companion had the horse meat grilled with sauce set meal, which also seemed delicious.

In addition to parking available around the restaurant, there is also a private parking lot next door. I arrived around 6 PM and was browsing the menu when a steady stream of customers arrived. The restaurant has plenty of counter seating, as well as table seating and a tatami room in the back! Famous for its delicious stewed horse meat, Katsumi Shokudo offers a variety of dishes featuring horse meat.

Just the sound and aroma of the meat grilling on the hot plate is enough to tell you it's delicious. When I actually tried it, the horse meat was packed with flavor, and although there were tender parts and parts that were a little chewy like sinew, it was still very tasty.

(Translated by Google) It's slowly getting more popular. Meat and rice set meal (medium-sized horumon) It's been a while since I last visited Katsumi Shokudo. The parking lot is decent, but fills up pretty quickly. The age demographic is a little on the higher side, and the wait varies depending on the day, but this time it was just right, so I was glad. I always order the meat and rice. The horumon has no strong odor and a consistent, light flavor. The meat and rice is rich, which is just right. Personally, I prefer the meat and rice to rice. Either way, the rice just keeps coming back. The large horumon is quite expensive, so I ended up ordering the middle. Hormone set meals are getting more expensive everywhere these days, so I guess that's about right.

Ramen restaurant
Tengaiten, located near Kumamoto Station, is a popular ramen spot offering deliciously thick and slightly salty broth. The restaurant focuses on quality over quantity, serving only three types of ramen: basic, spicy, and the unique char siu ramen with culinary influences from China. Despite the limited menu options, customers can add extra toppings to their liking. The staff are energetic and attentive, creating a lively atmosphere for diners.
Delicious!!! After a full day of walking and eating sweet carbs all day, Karaguchi(Spicy) Ramen hit all the right spots for me. Topped it up with semi-boiled egg and fried gyoza for some protein. 😋 If you are the type of person who likes to drink the soup at the end then maybe go for Low spicy level rather than medium. The only whining I have, if any, is that the extra noddles(替え玉) was not free.

One of the best—if not the best—ramen we had during our Japan trip last March 2025. As a couple who loves garlic, my wife and I definitely enjoyed the Kumamoto Tonkotsu Ramen. It was the perfect way to end our day trip in Kumamoto before heading back to our BnB in Fukuoka. We truly loved their ramen. The garlic intensified the flavor and added just the right amount of heat to the broth. We also ordered the Boiled Pork Fillet Rice (which I forgot to take a photo of—good thing I captured the menu where it looked exactly the same!). This dish is a must-try: the savory pork with fresh egg was so tasty that we almost ordered another bowl, but we were already full. As visitors in Japan, we also appreciated the atmosphere. Watching the staff prepare our food right in front of us was such an experience. Everything was freshly made, and the service was superb. If only I were wealthy enough, I’d fly back and forth just to eat here. A highly recommended place to visit if you’re ever in Kumamoto!

This restaurant in Kumamoto Station is amazing! It's easy to find, located in the food zone on the right-hand side. I was lucky to arrive before noon and didn't have to wait in line (but the line was long after I finished eating). I ordered the basic ramen. They also have other menus such as spicy ramen, chashumen, and gyoza. When the food arrived, the first thing I noticed was the strong garlic smell. People who don't like garlic might not like it, but I love it. The soup is smooth and not too thick, but with a clear flavor. The noodles are thin, typical of this region, and cooked al dente, so they're chewy and delicious. The price is also reasonable at 900 yen. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant!

Situated in a food court at the train station, it has a comfortable atmosphere with a quick turnover of people. Not a place to sit and chat while eating, basically eat and go, to give others minimum waiting time in the queue. Soup broth was strong and flavourful!! And the highlight for me was both the oh-so-tender cha shu and the al dente ramen! It was sooo good!!!! Highly recommended to everyone!

Been there in the evening (near 6-7pm) of weekdays. No queue. No Eng menu but google translate is understandable. Only two kinds of ramen: spicy or not. Can add topping if you like. I ordered non-spicy ramen. The bowl was big for regular-sized woman. The soup was delicious. The noodles were OK. The staffs are young people and seem to full of energy. They were all working for the whole time that I was sitting and eating at the counter. Only few drawbacks are that it is a small shop and I think there's only counter seat, which may not be suitable for someone with large luggage.

Tasted great. Strong broth with garlic. Highlight was the charsiu rice with egg yolk. Worth it to try this ramen place. They only have 2 ramen to choose from, big/small spicy and no spicy. Ordering strategy: get a bowl of ramen and the charsiu egg rice. Also sprinkle some of the rice seasoning (found on table) into the rice for extra flavour.

Spicy ramen is too salty for me but it tastes good. Charsiu ramen is not as salty so it is somehow better. Gyoza is good. Added egg to the ramen.

(Translated by Google) This restaurant feels like an old Japanese house. We made a reservation for a social gathering after a local friend told us "This place is delicious!" The appetizers were lined up in abundance, and since there were so many people, they had made every effort to keep us waiting. The cherry meat is particularly noteworthy. I've never seen meat that looks so beautiful!! We shabu-shabued the cherry meat, which was such a beautiful color that we thought we could eat it as is. We started by eating it without any condiments, and the sweetness came first, which was a first for us. We then enjoyed pairing it with a little Kyushu soy sauce and the yuzu pepper that came with the horse sashimi. Kyushu is amazing...I'll definitely visit again.

Also, shabu-shabu has a lot of flavor in the soup, so you can eat it as is without adding anything! The spiciness from the thick soup stock is a perfect match! As for the sashimi, I think it changes depending on the season, but all of it was fresh and delicious with no odor! I would definitely like to visit again! Thank you for the meal! (Original) 知人のお祝い事で訪問 笑顔の素敵な女将さんが出迎えて頂きお部屋まで案内 12,000円のコースを予約 馬しゃぶから握りまで 予約の際に、値段の違いを尋ねると丁寧に教えてもらえますので、好みのコースが選べます。 当日は食事の際の会話が盛り上がりすぎてお料理の写真を全て撮ってませんが、全てにおいて美味しく 馬刺しにいたっては、たてがみの薄さが好みでした! あとしゃぶしゃぶはお出汁に味がしっかりついており、しゃぶしゃぶしたらそのまま何もつけずに食べれます! 濃いめの出汁からピリっとくる辛味が最高にマッチします! あとお刺身に関して、時期により変わるのだと思いますが、どれも新鮮で臭みもなく美味しく頂けました! また必ず伺いたいと思います! ご馳走様でした!

(Translated by Google) We had a course dinner. You can relax in a semi-private room. All the dishes are elaborate and can be enjoyed from the appearance to the taste. It looked like a horse's creative dish and was very delicious ^^ It was my first time to have horse liver sashimi 😌 The shabu shabu was also delicious. But I guess it was a little hard. The mackerel and lotus root dishes were also delicious and heartwarming. The overall rating is high, but on this day, a large number of guests (?) in the next room were talking loudly and obscenely, which was very unpleasant...That's about all my complaints. I have a good impression of the store itself, with courteous customer service from the time they enter and leave. (Original) コースディナーをいただきました。 半個室でゆっくりくつろげます。 お料理はどれも凝っていて見た目から味まで楽しめます。 馬の創作料理みたいでとっても美味しかったです^^ 馬レバ刺しは初めていただいきました😌 しゃぶしゃぶも美味しかったです。 しかし少し辛かったかな。 鰆や蓮根の料理も美味しくてほっこりしました。 全体的に高評価なのですが、この日、隣の部屋にいた大人数(?)のお客さんが大声で下品なお話をされていて、とても不愉快でした…不満はそれくらいです。 出入りから丁寧な接客でお店自体には好印象を持っています。

(Translated by Google) The famous jalapeño (green chili pepper) horse shabu is only available here, and I come here every time I come to Kumamoto. The horse sashimi is also fresh and you can enjoy the special parts from sashimi to various dishes. A must-visit place for horse meat lovers.

(Translated by Google) I can't forget the meat for horse shabu... I was told that it could be eaten raw, so I had one piece raw without shabu-shabu. It's the best taste ever. It would have been better if the shabu-shabu base was not spicy (´;ω;`) Other than the shabu-shabu, it was also delicious, and I was already full of horses!

Umasakura is a Japanese regional restaurant located in the heart of Vancouver, serving up delicious horse meat sashimi, hot pots, and local dishes. The contemporary space features booth and bar seating, making it perfect for intimate gatherings or big groups. Whether you're a fan of horse meat or just looking for some delicious Japanese cuisine, Uma Sakura is definitely worth checking out!
Excellent horse meat restaurant. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful, despite the language barrier. We came without reservations after being turned away from several restaurants, who refused to serve us without reservations and who were also not family friendly. Portions are really large here. The grill was the highlight. Staff were extremely informative about how to best appreciate each type of meat presented, with it’s respective seasonings. Dining groups were well separated from each other with privacy screens. Alcohol served here, but they still accept young kids to dine-in. Much appreciated, Umazakura Shimotori! 🙏🙏 Compliments to the chefs and staff! Dining here has a cover charge of ¥500 per customer though. Which is “repaid” a small side dish.

If you're looking for high quality horse meat or chevaline, this place is it. Had 6 different cuts of sakuraniku and a few skewered that tasted almost like beef but different. You gotta try it for your self. Very classy atmosphere and everything is ordered on a ipad for convenience. The dishes are excellently presented and delivered to your table within minutes. Some may not be completely thawed but tastes great.

Steak house
Meat dish restaurant
Restaurant
Akaushi Dining Yoka-Yoka is a casual restaurant that specializes in a variety of beef dishes and steaks, along with beer. They are known for their superior Akaushi Beef, which offers an excellent beefy/umami taste without being overpowered by marbled fat. The chain also serves Mt. Aso's red wagyu beef, known for its leanness and great cuts.
I visited Akaushi Dining Yoka-Yoka during my time in Kumamoto and it turned out to be one of the most memorable meals of the trip. It’s located on the third floor of the Sakuramachi shopping complex, which is super convenient and connected directly to the bus terminal. It’s also near the Hanabatacho tram stop, so getting there was really easy. The restaurant is part of the Akaushi Sankyo group, meaning all their beef comes directly from their own ranch in Aso. That gave me confidence in the quality before I even stepped inside. The interior had a warm, inviting feel with polished wood tones and a modern yet relaxed atmosphere. They had counter seating where you can watch the chefs work, tables for small groups, and even some private areas for those who want more privacy. I ordered their signature Akaushi Beef Bowl, or Akaushidon, which came with thin slices of medium-rare beef, a soft-boiled egg, wasabi, and a generous portion of rice. There was also simmered beef mixed in, which gave the dish a rich, comforting flavor. The meat was incredibly tender, subtly sweet, and had no gamey smell at all. Mixing in the egg and wasabi made it even better. The portion was satisfying and honestly felt like great value for the quality. They also offer a Super Akaushidon if you want double the meat, as well as hitsumabushi, steaks, hamburg steaks, and Western-style plates. The menu has something for everyone, and I found it hard to choose just one dish. The restaurant is open from 11 AM to 10 PM with no closing days. Prices for lunch dishes are around ¥2,000 to ¥3,000, and dinner courses can go up to about ¥7,000 depending on what you order. They accept credit cards, IC cards, and mobile payments, which made everything convenient. It’s a very popular place, and when I arrived just before lunch, there was already a small queue forming. There’s no dedicated parking for the restaurant, but since it’s inside Sakuramachi, you can just use the mall’s parking or arrive by tram or bus. Overall, Akaushi Dining Yoka-Yoka was a fantastic spot to try premium local beef in a comfortable and well-designed setting. The beef was the clear star of the show, and I’d absolutely return on my next trip to Kumamoto. If you’re in the area and want to taste what Kumamoto is famous for, this is the place to go.

The food is good, it’s nothing special at all. I’d say the place is a bit of a tourist trap. If you’re looking for solid dishes that resemble “local cuisine” then you can’t go wrong with this place. But I was disappointed with the flavour of the beef itself. I’d recommend you do some deeper hunting for somewhere more authentic.

We wanted to have some Waygu beef and chanced upon this restaurant. It was surprisingly not crowded, mostly because I guess the food is not good value for money. We ordered two different beef bowls, the special and the extra beef bowl. Overall we found the beef a little too raw and hence hard to chew. The special one tasted better. Overall, not bad but not fantastic.

Food is good, but bad service brings the experience down. Took a while of standing at the entrance while both waiters intentionally didn't look that way. When the waitress saw us, she seemed surprised that anyone had come in. No greeting for us or the other foreigners who came in after, but warm welcome for Japanese. Unfriendly, brusque service.

Had lunch here with friends. All 4 of us got akaushi dons for about 2400 yen with tax. The rice came with rare steak on top, with an onsen egg and shiso leaves as a garnish with some sort of sauce. Service was great as was the environment. Food wise, the red beef was quite bland, with the overall food being edible but not fantastic. Despite all of this, the accessibility of this place and the professionalism of the staff definitely deserves some praise.

Natasa — Google review
When in Kumamoto, akaushi is a must eat! I can’t begin to describe how amazing this bowl of beef is without a trail of drool streaming down my chin. I opted for the “special akaushi bowl”, considered as the mid level choice and this was right up my alley! Not too lean and not too fatty, just right like how Goldilocks would want it. The egg and wasabi provide creaminess and a unique spiciness that keeps you chomping down for more. All in all, this is one of the best beef bowls you can ever have, please don’t miss it!!

Uoyoshi is a seasonal fish restaurant opened by Mr. Inomoto of Marusho Suisan, a well-established wholesaler at the market for over 50 years. The restaurant aims to offer customers the opportunity to savor fresh ingredients handled at the market. With a focus on using freshly purchased fish from daily auctions, Uoyoshi's menu highlights delectable sashimi that has been highly recommended.
A true gem, and indicative of the high-quality sushi and soba noodles to be had on Kyushu. There were 4 sets, so be aware that the deluxe sushi choice had only 6 or 8 pieces b/c those fish are more expensive (my tempera/sushi set had more food, with little dishes of other things as well). It looked so good I forgot to take a picture before pouncing on it. They make their own soba, and it was perfectly chewy and tasty. It was one of our best meals in a week of eating amazing meals all over Kyushu! ** Menus are in English, the sign is not (secret!) **

I'm glad it's open on Sundays Although it is far from the downtown area, the store had a nice atmosphere and was clean inside. The food was delicious, but I personally found the sushi to be quite sweet, so I don't think I liked the sushi. However, it was easy to make reservations and the owner was very personable, so I would like to visit him if I have a chance. Thank you for the meal.

(Translated by Google) Today we visited Uoyoshi, a 100-year-old sushi and Japanese cuisine restaurant located in Gofukumachi, Chuo Ward, Kumamoto City. I had passed by the store before, but I hadn't had the chance to visit before, so today was my first visit. Established 100 years ago, the current owner is the fourth generation. The store built by the first generation was demolished due to the Kumamoto earthquake, and was rebuilt and reopened. You can order dishes made with seasonal fish and vegetables individually, but there were 8,000 yen and 10,000 yen courses, so I took the plunge and ordered the 10,000 yen course to relieve the fatigue from my weekend work! Starting with appetizers of seasonal vegetables, luxurious snacks such as sashimi, sea cucumber ponzu, wakame ponzu, duck meat salad style, salt-grilled tiger prawns, salt-grilled kinki, and milt tempura follow, and the meal ends with nigiri of squid, kisses, tuna, and more. It was my first time to eat Kiss Nigiri, and it was delicious. It's also good that the chef asks you about your preference for the balance of snacks and nigiri. On this day, I had a lot of snacks, but I think I'll try a lot more nigiri next time. Although it was the first day of harvest, the friendly and smiling owner spoke to me in a friendly manner, so I was able to enjoy the meal. The courses are 8,000 yen and 10,000 yen, so it's not cheap, but if you had the same thing in Tokyo or Fukuoka, 15,000 yen would be ridiculous, so personally I felt it was very reasonable. Thank you for the meal! I'll see you again!

Kura Sushi is a popular spot located along National Route 3, easily accessible from Kumamoto city. It's advisable to reserve a seat using the app due to its tendency to get crowded. The introduction of a lottery system adds an element of fun, and there's also a variety of dishes available, including sashimi, karagae (fried chicken), onion rings, French fries, and tempura. Ordering online for pick-up is convenient and the quality remains consistent.
Kura Sushi is one of the most enjoyable sushi places I’ve visited in Japan! The conveyor belt system makes dining fun and interactive — you can grab whatever looks good as it passes by, or order specific items using the tablet screen. Your food arrives quickly, and it’s always fresh.

Decent variety. There's the game of balls but the toys inside are really for boys 👦 🤷‍♀️ And sometimes you don't often win. Yet the desk will give your child a few from the box if you mention it! The sashimi may be frozen? Yet for what you get it is decent also they have karagae (fried chicken) onion rings French fries and tempura 🍤 I only noticed shrimp but there may be more. Also deserts though I have never tried the desert. It's a nice place for families with children 💙 but you could find it decent if you came for a quick meal.

Fresh seafood is a highlight here, with dishes showcasing the region's bountiful ingredients.

The large stonefish sashimi, typical of Kumamoto, is exquisite, and if you order one, you can also enjoy fried chicken. The sesame mackerel was also fresh, and although I didn't eat the horse sashimi, it seemed to be fresh. The human character Guruguru is a green onion.It was my first time eating it, and it was refreshing and delicious. In addition to the menu, I believe that the items written on the whiteboard are seasonal. The prices were reasonable and I highly recommend this store.

(Translated by Google) I had sushi and a la carte dishes for dinner. 🍴🙏 This restaurant, located along Ginza Street, is a seafood izakaya serving fish and local dishes. While the prices are a little on the pricier side, the food is delicious!❗ The special nigiri sushi I had was made with fresh fish, and I highly recommend it for the price.👌 The a la carte dishes included my favorite grilled salted saury, rare horse tongue sashimi, oden, and teriyaki conger eel—a truly delicious parade of dishes.👌 The only disappointment was that there were no seats available, and there was a 1.5-hour wait. They said they would call me when a table became available. However, when I arrived about 30 minutes early, the staff member told me, "There are seats available!" There were plenty of seats available, and I was able to get in earlier than expected, but I wish they had called me if one was available.😅 (Original) ディナーでお寿司と一品料理をいただきました🍴🙏 店舗は銀座通り沿いにある、お魚や郷土料理が食べられる海鮮居酒屋で、価格帯はちょっとお高めですが、美味しい料理を食べる事が出来ますよ❗ 食べた特上にぎりは、新鮮な魚を使ったお寿司で、価格の割りにはお薦めですね👌 一品料理では、好物のサンマの塩焼き、珍しい馬タン刺し、おでん、あなごの照焼きと、とても美味しい料理のオンパレードでしたね👌 ただひとつ残念だったのは、空席が無く、1時間半待ちとの事で、空き次第電話するとの事でしたが、30分ほど早く来店してみると、店員さんから「空いてますよ❗」との事で、空席もかなりあり、予定より早く入れましたが、空いていれば、連絡が欲しかったですね😅

Restaurant
Edomae Sengoku is a sushi restaurant that offers a limited menu of omakase courses. However, they are willing to accommodate customers' preferences if informed during the reservation process. The meal consists of various sashimi items, grilled and steamed dishes, sushi (8 to 10 pieces), and delightful desserts. The amount of sushi can be adjusted based on appetite, allowing patrons to fully indulge in each bite.
(Translated by Google) Omakase, who is currently in Kumamoto, will give you a special experience. Kumamoto City has a very unique feeling for all kinds of people, there are not many visitors, and the city is also unique.天气也很不错,Kumamoto bearded super quality possible love. The next restaurant I went to, my sister and sister in Tokyo were busy, and the restaurant was very busy, so I chose to stay in the house. The dining room is large, only 6 people can sit, and each person can enjoy the space alone at night. At the time of admission, the staff member is very careful, and if you have any questions in advance, please pay special attention to the staff. Appetizers are shared 6 ways, the flavors are different, the most delicious sushi is 9 ways, each way is thoroughly studied, and the new taste of sashimi leaves a deep impression on people. Specially, it's the last sea bream sushi, you can get a lot of food, but you can't eat it, but the fresh ingredients will open up people's stomachs and mouths. The only small thing is that it is slightly biased, but if you consider the ingredients, you can try a new way to prepare a Japanese restaurant, and it will be profitable. The cabinet on the table is like Tiffany, and the cup on the table is like Hermes. The great chef is a long-time uncle, and since then he has had a lot of money. Our translators are interchangeable, and the format is very enjoyable. After the meal, we will provide you with sweets, matcha tea sauce, and sweets. The body is here, the next body is very different, and the first experience is worth it. I had an omakase experience in Kumamoto, and it was truly memorable. Kumamoto itself is a very comfortable city to visit—there aren’t too many people, so shopping and strolling around is super relaxed. The weather was also great, and Kumamon (the city mascot) is just adorable. I had my sister, who lives in Tokyo, help me book this place after I saw it had decent reviews online. The restaurant is small, only about 6 seats, and that night it was just the two of us. When we sat down, the waitress kindly asked if we had any food allergies, which was really thoughtful. The appetizers were around six dishes, and the sushi served later included 9 different pieces. The sashimi was extremely fresh, and the sea urchin sushi at the end was the highlight—super rich and satisfying, though I was already full by the time we got to it. it. The details in the restaurant were impressive, with Tiffany’s toothpick holder and Hermes plates. The chef was an older gentleman, clearly experienced, and there were two friendly, attractive servers. We used a translation app to chat, and the whole atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable. The meal ended with a delicious matcha cheesecake that wasn’t too sweet. Overall, it was a experience, definitely worth trying. I had Omakase cuisine in Kumamoto and it was a wonderful experience. The city of Kumamoto is very pleasant and there are not many tourists, so shopping and walking around was very relaxing. The weather was nice and the Kumamoto bears were very cute. My sister who lives in Tokyo made a reservation for the restaurant. I chose that store because it had good reviews. The restaurant is small, with only 6 seats, so it was just the two of us dining that night. When I sat down, the female staff member was very kind and checked in advance to see if there were any ingredients I was allergic to. There were about 6 appetizers, and 9 types of sushi came out at the end. The sashimi was fresh and the sea urchin sushi at the end was very tasty. Even though I was full, I was impressed by how fresh it was. However, the price was a little high, but considering the freshness of the ingredients, it was well worth it. There was a Tiffany toothpick holder on the table, and the tableware was Hermes, so you could feel the attention to detail. The chef was an older man and seemed experienced. The female and male staff members were also very kind, handsome and beautiful, and we enjoyed our meal while having a fun conversation using a translation app. After the meal, a matcha cheesecake was served, and it was not too sweet, but had just the right amount of sweetness. Overall it was a great experience and I think it's definitely worth a try.

(Translated by Google) It was the most delicious meal I've had in years. Each dish is delicate and beautiful, and it's so delicious that it's almost a shame to eat it all. The beauty of clear soup stock! I didn't want to leave any trace behind. I will never forget the sweetness of the sea urchin and the scent of seaweed at the end. Not only the food but also the utensils make you feel special. The sake served in tin was also great. The cleanliness of the store and the restroom facilities were perfect. There is such a wonderful shop in Kumamoto too. I was impressed. (Original) 数年間食べた食事の中で一番最高に美味しかったです。ひとつひとつのお料理が繊細で美しく、食べてしまうのが惜しい程美味しいです。澄んだお出汁の美しさ!一滴も残したくないと思いました。最後に出てきた雲丹の甘さ海苔の香りが忘れられません。お料理だけでなく器も特別な気分にさせてくれます。錫で頂く日本酒も最高でした。店内の清潔感、お手洗いの完備もパーフェクトでした。こんな素晴らしいお店が熊本にもあるのですね。感動致しました。

Nestled on Nishi Ginza Street in the heart of Kumamoto City, Hibiki is a must-visit for those seeking an authentic taste of seasonal Japanese cuisine paired with exquisite sake. This charming restaurant offers a variety of local dishes that highlight the region's culinary treasures. Guests can indulge in carefully curated courses, such as the ultimate local cuisine experience featuring melt-in-your-mouth horse sashimi and sweet squid, alongside crunchy steamed abalone and delectable prawns.
(Translated by Google) I was told that it was recommended by GOLD Senpai. I visited with 3 generations of parents and children! This is a 7000 yen course! ◆Jade eggplant tofu Dishes hardened with gelatin! The deliciousness of the seasonal eggplant, the flavor of the soup stock, and the sesame dressing went really well together! ◆Squid live making It's a seasonal thing, and it depends on the day if it's in stock, but I happened to be able to get it in stock! ! A squid that moves around! The freshness of the tempura was unmistakable, and the prepared tempura was also delicious, and everyone was fighting over it! ! ◆Sashimi (amberjack, red sea bream, bonito, salmon) It was a little bit of sashimi, but it was delicious! It was fatty and delicious! ! ◆Grilled silver salmon with miso sauce It was a strange looking dish! Coho salmon is topped with meringue and decorated with chestnuts! Warm and sweet chestnuts, fluffy meringue. Silver salmon with great flavor! It was very delicious. ◆Oyster and persimmon namasu It was an oyster dish that was a collaboration of sea oysters and mountain persimmons! It's a taste that you can't easily make at home. ◆Grilled red beef with real sansho sauce Meat that really gets you excited! The dish was lean red beef, but it was very soft and fragrant, and the green onions and Japanese pepper were a nice accent! ◆Miso soup with name and seaweed After a hearty course, miso soup with a strong dashi soup will be a relief. ◆Mushroom rice Even though they were pretty full, everyone said in unison that it was still delicious! ! I was impressed and said, ``You can't make it this delicious at home.'' ◆Apple compote In addition to counter seats, It's basically a private room, It was a beautiful shop with a special, luxurious, and private feel! ! There are also glass-covered plants in the hallway. It creates a special atmosphere. This restaurant is perfect for entertaining, special occasions, and dates. The price range is not that high-end either. I think this is an easy-to-use store★ You taught me a wonderful shop! Thank you Gold! ! (Original) GOLD先輩のおすすめだと教えてもらい 親子3世代で訪問しました! 7000円のコースです! ◆翡翠ナス豆腐 ゼラチンで固められたお料理! 旬の茄子の美味しさと、おだしの風味、ごまドレッシングもとても合いました! ◆ヤリイカ活き造り 時期的なもので、入荷の有無はその日によりますが、たまたま入荷されていて頂くことができました!!くねくねと動くヤリイカ!新鮮さは間違いなく後作りの天ぷらも絶品で、みんなで取り合いになりました!! ◆お刺身(カンパチ、真鯛、カツオ、サーモン) 少しずつですが、おいしいお刺身でした! 脂が乗ってておいしかったです!! ◆銀鮭の味噌幽庵焼き 不思議な見た目のお料理でした!銀鮭にメレンゲが載っていて、栗があしらわれています! ほっこり甘い栗、ふわふわのメレンゲ。 しっかり味がついた銀鮭! とってもおいしかったです。 ◆牡蠣と柿のなます 海の牡蠣と山の柿がコラボレーションしたカキカキのお料理でした! なかなか家では出せない味わいです。 ◆あか牛グリルの実山椒ソース やっぱりテンションが上がるお肉! 料理赤身の赤牛ですが、とっても柔らかく香ばしくあげられたネギや、山椒の味が良いアクセントになっていました! ◆なめことわかめの味噌汁 たっぷりコースの後のお出汁の効いたお味噌汁はほっとします。 ◆きのこご飯 そこそこお腹いっぱいになっても、「それでもおいしい!」とみんなが口を揃えて絶賛していたご飯物です!!「家ではこんな美味しく作れないね」と感心しておりました。 ◆りんごのコンポート カウンター席以外には、 基本的に個室になっていて、 特別感、高級感、プライベート感あるきれいなお店でした!! 廊下にはガラス張りの植栽などもあり、 特別な雰囲気を醸し出しています。 接待や特別な日の食事、デートなどにもぴったりのお店です。 価格帯もそんなに高級な金額帯ではないので 使いやすいお店だと思います★ 素敵なお店を教えていただきました! ゴールドさんありがとうございます!!

I ordered a sashimi platter of spear squid, but on this day it was Monko squid! It is thick and has a sweetness that rivals squid! Geso made tempura for me! I was surprised at how beautifully marbled the puffer fish tempura and horse sashimi were! It's a kaiseki meal so you don't have to share the food and you can get absorbed in the conversation!

Since I was having a dinner with guests from outside the prefecture, I chose a restaurant that served local cuisine. I reserved the ultimate local cuisine course for 10,800 yen. Additionally, I ordered Yobuko's porpoise squid. The special horse sashimi will melt! Squid is sweet! The prawns are also delicious. The steamed abalone is crunchy. The grilled Amakusa Daio thigh meat has the unique elasticity of free-range chicken and is delicious. Shime's special horse nigiri and dagojiru are delicious. I'm full and very satisfied!

(Translated by Google) This is a restaurant that an acquaintance took me to while on a business trip to Kumamoto. The atmosphere is quite luxurious. I was led to a private room and seated. Leave the ordering to a friend. Here's my first impression. Pickled yellowtail and local fish in Nanban, beef tongue croquette, and Amakusa Daio breast meat chicken ham. It's rare to see such an elaborate appetizer. Of course it's delicious. I ordered a variety of things, and each one was delicious, but what stood out to me was the shape of the filefish. I don't often see the shape of a filefish, but when I eat it I think that the difference between the transparent beauty of the body and the grotesqueness of the face is quite unbalanced. This is also delicious. And after I finished eating, I made soup with the remaining filefish. It's the best thing to make after this. I'm very satisfied with this quality and price. Recommended. (Original) 熊本出張中に知人に連れて行ってもらったお店です。 中々高級感のある雰囲気のある趣。 個室に通され着席。 注文は知人にお任せで。 こちらで最初の感動はお通し。 キビナゴと地魚の南蛮漬け、牛タンコロッケ、天草大王ムネ肉の鶏ハム。 こんな凝ったお通しは中々見かけない。 もちろん美味しい。 色々注文し、一個一個美味しいのだが、印象に残ったのはカワハギの姿造り。 カワハギの姿造りって中々見かけないけど身の透き通る美しさと顔のグロテスク差が中々アンバランスだなーと思いながら食べる。 これがまたうまい。 そして食べ終わった後に残ったカワハギであら汁。 この後作り最高です。 このクオリティーでこの値段なら大満足。 おすすめです。

(Translated by Google) The course cost me 6000 yen. I was torn between 5,500 yen and 6,500 yen, but they said they would upgrade me a little to the 5,500 yen course... I thought it was great that they were able to accommodate the situation, but for a course that cost 6,000 yen, I was not satisfied with the content. ? ? That's what it feels like. With this, I don't think I can expect a 5,500 yen course or a 6,500 yen course... As for the all-you-can-drink beer, the beer is light, and the highball whiskey is a little strange. I wouldn't complain if it was a 3,500 yen all-you-can-drink course, but for a 6,000 yen course, I was a little disappointed. (Original) コースで6000円にしてもらった。 5,500円と、6,500円で迷ってたが、5,500円コースにすこしグレードアップしてくれるとの内容だったが… 対応して頂いたのは臨機応変で素晴らしいなと思ったが、6,000円という金額のコースにしては内容に??? という感じです。 これだと5,500円コース、6,500円コースもちょっと期待できないかなと… 飲み放題のお酒もビールは淡麗、ハイボールのウイスキーもちょっと微妙。 3,500円飲み放題コースとかだと文句は無いけど、6,000円コースでこれはちょっと…という感想でした。

Kumamoto Food Stall Village is an old-fashioned open-air food court located near Kumamoto Castle, offering a variety of delicious options such as hot dogs, seafood, and wine. It's a popular spot for both locals and tourists to grab a quick bite or enjoy a leisurely meal with views of the castle. The downtown area is where you'll find most of the best food options in Kumamoto, making it convenient to explore after visiting the bus station.
Environment was cosy and we found a shop there that didn’t tout much ran by a young couple. Would recommend this spot as the crowd was not as intense as the main shopping street where we could not find a single place with seats.

I am disappointed about rude service of young guy chef at 焼き鳥 restaurant. We are his only customer at stall and we ordered food. While waiting, I saw beside has sake machines, I bought a cup of sake and I brought into stall. He yelled loudly RULE! LEAVE LEAVE LEAVE very angrily! I was shocked as there is no sign of NO OUTSIDE FOOD. I went outside the stall to finish my sake (just a few slips). He still shouted LEAVE LEAVE! My family told him, I am OUTSIDE STALL already so stop shouting asking to LEAVE. He keep quiet and I finished my sake and went back in to eat. Such a rude encounter in Japan. He should have talk in a polite way and I can accept instead of shouting LEAVE. I will suggest to have 1 paper write NO OUTSIDE FOOD & DRINK and at sake counter STAND & FINISH to stop such nonsense scolding of overseas customers.

The food staff village includes many little food stall inside but each stall is very small and have limited of seats, so best for 1-4 people. We went to 2 different stalls because many were sold out at the first restaurant so we add dumplings to fill the rest of our tummy’s.😂 We were there on weekdays so not many people.

Personally I don’t like this place it’s located in the middle of the place so yeah. The beef is so chewy and tough. What kind of beef are they even using? Some more it’s expensive. Avoid this place at all costs. The shabu shabu beef quality was not good. It is not smooth looks just defrosted. When cooked it’s grainy. ABSOLUTELY OVERPRICED AND BAD FOOD WARNING ‼️

Isokko-Shoten is a renowned culinary destination in Kumamoto that offers a blend of izakaya classics and fresh sashimi. It's an ideal choice for adventurous eaters, featuring specialties like basashi (raw horse sashimi) and sugata-zukuri (squid sashimi cut to retain its original shape). Visitors can enjoy private rooms with traditional horigotatsu seating.
(Translated by Google) I came here for the first time in a long while after hearing that they would be serving alcohol after the end of the priority measures to prevent the spread of the virus starting in October. When you come to the store, the landlady who looks like a mom always greets you lol. The menu has changed compared to the last time I came here, and seasonal dishes and mini-sized dishes that can be enjoyed by one person have been added! The taste was as delicious as Grandma's, so I would like to come again! lol (Original) 10月より蔓延防止等重点措置が終わり、お酒の提供があると聞き久々に来てみました。 来店するとママみたいな女将さんがいつも出迎えてくれます笑 以前に来た時に比べるとメニューが変わっており、季節料理や1人飲みでも楽しめるミニサイズの料理が追加されてました! 味はグランマ級に美味しかったのでまた来たいと思います!笑

(Translated by Google) As I was wandering around Kumamoto, I happened to pass by and it smelled nice, so I went into Kumamoto Isokko Shoten. A cheerful staff member guided me to a seat on the second floor, and I sat down on a sunken kotatsu seat. I looked at the menu and everything looked delicious so I ordered a lot. My favorite among them was the fried rice! Although you can enjoy it without alcohol, the main selling point is the oysters. I ordered and ate steamed oysters, and they were delicious without being addictive. It's a perfect place for oyster lovers, as you can eat them all year round. This time, I will be in the middle of the day after the shortened working hours! ! (Original) 熊本の街をぶらぶらしていてたまたま通りかかっていい匂いがしていたので「熊本磯っこ商店」さんに入店しました。 元気なスタッフさんが2階の席に案内してくれ、掘りごたつの席にすわりました。 メニューをみててどれも美味しそうでたくさん注文しました、 その中でも気に入ったのがチャーハンでした! アルコールなしでも楽しめるお店ですが売りが牡蠣とのこと。 蒸し牡蠣を注文して食べましたがクセがなく美味しかったです。 1年中食べれるそうなので牡蠣好きにはもってこいの場所です。 こんどは時短明けにゆっくりお邪魔させていただきます!!

(Translated by Google) ``If you want to enjoy seafood at a good price in Kumamoto, this is the place to go.'' I visited this Isokko Shoten Kumamoto store due to the enthusiasm of a friend. I thought it was an affiliated store of Isomaru Shoten, but apparently that's not the case. It seems like a store that has roots in Kumamoto. The interior of the restaurant has a unique atmosphere reminiscent of the inside of a fishing boat, which will make you feel excited even before you enjoy your meal. Since this was my first visit to the restaurant, I listened to the staff's recommendations to avoid making mistakes, and what was delivered to my table was the seafood menu and meat dishes shown in the photo. All the dishes were carefully prepared and tasted fresh, so I can say that the food was a hit! I thoroughly enjoyed the drink until the last drop. My next business trip to Kumamoto will be next year, but I am sure I will visit again. (Original) 「熊本でコスパ良く海鮮を楽しめたいならこの店だ」と主張する知人の熱意に押され訪れたのが、こちらの磯っこ商店熊本店。 磯丸商店の系列店かと思いましたが、どうやらそうではない模様。 熊本に根付いたお店のようですね。 店内は漁に出る船内のような独特な雰囲気で、食事を楽しむ前から気持ちが高まります。 今回は初めて訪れるお店なので、失敗しないように店員さんのおすすめを聴取、結果テーブルに届いたのが写真に貼付している海鮮メニューと肉料理です。 どの料理も丁寧に作られており、鮮度も感じる内容だったので料理は大当たりだと言って良いでしょう! お酒も最後の一滴まで十分楽しめました。 次の熊本出張は来年になってしまいますが、再訪必至ですね。

(Translated by Google) Kumamoto Seafood Izakaya At a seafood izakaya along Nishi-Ginza Street. I went there. Isokko Shoten is a store in Fukuoka many times. I've been there before, but I didn't know there was a store in Kumamoto as well. You can see the fish tank from the outside, and you can see delicious-looking fish swimming around. Every Monday, filefish sashimi is available for 500 yen. It looks like you can eat it. It's really cheap. Is there a standing bar corner when you go inside? It seems to be easy to use when going alone. We were guided to the second floor, which we took up the stairs. The menu also features Kumamoto's local cuisine, unlike Fukuoka's. There was also horse sashimi. Oysters still seem to be a gourmet item. I enjoyed my favorite things such as sundubu, garlic dumplings, and oysters, and they were all delicious. Even though it is a seafood izakaya, there are some products that are not seafood. Everything was delicious. Stop by Isokko Shoten and take a look at the menu. I thought it was a different way of doing things. Sundubu looks like he's going to be hooked. I would like to stop by again when I go to Kumamoto. (Original) 熊本 海鮮居酒屋 西銀座通り沿いにある海鮮居酒屋に 行ってきました。 磯っこ商店は福岡のお店は何度も 行ったことがあったのですが、熊本にもお店があるとは知らなかったです。 外からは生簀もみえていて、美味しそうな魚が泳いでます。毎週月曜日はカワハギ刺が500円で 食べれるみたいです。すごい安いですね。 中に入っては立ち飲みコーナ? 1人で行く際にはサクッと使えそうです。 ご案内されたのは2階で階段であがります。 メニューも福岡とは違い熊本の郷土料理や 馬刺しなどもありました。 牡蠣は変わらずウリ商品みたいです。 スンドゥブやにんにく餃子、牡蠣など好きなものを適当に楽しみましたが、全てうまい。 海鮮居酒屋なのに、海鮮ではない商品も 全部美味しかったです。 磯っこ商店は店に寄って少しメニューや やり方が違うだなと思いました。 スンドゥブはどハマりしそうです。 熊本に行く際はまた寄りたいと思います。

(Translated by Google) The food was okay, but since they didn't have fried shrimp, I ate the squid as sashimi and asked them to fry the leftover squid, which was about 4,000 yen. It would have been better if the amount had been known in advance. I tried to convince the biller and pay according to the bill, but they said the bill was wrong... and told me to pay more...^^ I paid 9,000 yen, but it felt like something was missing. Satisfied that smoking is allowed in all seats.

(Translated by Google) I have passed by Nishi Ginza Street many times, but there were no customers on the first floor, so I avoided it, but it was cheap so I decided to give it a try. The reason why there are always no customers is revealed. They are guided to the second floor. The staff was friendly and the customer service was polite. I think sashimi and raw oysters are a good deal considering the price. The disappointing thing about the appetizer is that it's good for 400 yen, but the appetizer is a really strong soup with only one clam in it. It's fine as a soup, but I would like them to add more ingredients or make it taste easier to drink. Even without the anniversary, happy hour is the cheapest in the area, so I'd like to take advantage of it, but the appetizers are too disappointing. I hope it's always a good appetizer even if it's just a coincidence. (Original) 西銀座通りを何度も通っているが1階に客が居ないので敬遠していたが周年で安かったので行ってみました いつも客が居ない理由が判明 2階に案内されるんですね 店員さんの愛想もよく接客も丁寧でした 刺身や生牡蠣は値段も考えたらお得だと思います 残念なのはお通し 400円なのは良いとしてアサリが1個だけ入っためちゃくちゃ濃い味のお吸い物がお通しって お吸い物でもいいけど具増やすか飲みやすい味にするかしてほしい 周年抜きでもハッピーアワーが近隣最安レベルなので利用したいがお通しが残念すぎる たまたまハズレだっただけでいつもイケてるお通しでありますように

Sushiro is a conveyor belt sushi restaurant located in Kumamoto Prefecture, at the western edge of Kyushu. The region is known for its diverse landscapes, including the grand Aso Five Peaks and lush forests. Sushiro offers a variety of delicious sushi options, with highlights such as the extra-large natural tiger prawns and snow crab tempura nigiri.
The usual excellent offerings of Sushiro. To avoid the lunch crowd, we went at 11:30 am and it was spot on. Having an English menu is a boon for customers like ourselves. The sushi is fresh and the range is good. We usually try the limited editions / seasonal offerings. Our perennial favourites are yellowtail, horse mackerel, ark shell, large shrimp and tuna.

I often go to a different store, but I happened to stop by as I was passing nearby. I noticed something strange about the taste of the food I ate, so I asked the staff member about it, but she was cold towards me (a woman in her 40s or 50s?). We didn't have a satisfying meal. We went as a group of three, and everyone said they found the taste strange. I had the opportunity to speak with someone who used to work at this store part-time when they were a student, and they told me that the sanitary environment wasn't very good, so I wouldn't recommend it.

However, we were seated next to the window that looks out the garden which was very nice glistening in the sun. I had the plum kaiseki set which has a plum theme running through the course. It was quite a culinary experience bc I don't speak Japanese and they don't speak English so I could only guess what I'm eating. Luckily, every dish was delicious and well-presented.

Terrace Kumamoto has become one of our absolute favorite dining spots — it’s the kind of place we find ourselves returning to almost every two weeks without even thinking twice. The food is consistently amazing. Their mixed seafood ceviche is refreshing, zesty, and beautifully prepared — the perfect start to the meal. We also love their carne tacos — packed with flavor and perfectly seasoned. The beef is always tender and full of depth, a true highlight of the menu. Our daughter has her go-to favorites, too — the melted cheese pasta and chicken wings, both of which are always a hit. The wings are crispy and flavorful, and the pasta is rich, comforting, and just the right amount of indulgent. Beyond the food, we absolutely love the design and ambiance. It’s modern yet relaxed, stylish but welcoming — a great space to unwind, celebrate, or simply enjoy a great meal with people you love. Terrace Kumamoto isn’t just a restaurant for us — it’s a part of our rhythm, a place that always feels right. Highly recommended for anyone looking for quality food, warm service, and a beautiful atmosphere.

This was a fantastic restaurant experience. Honestly from top to bottom we enjoyed it. From the service, to the drinks, the food. The place is expensive but we thought the cost was justified across the board from what we ordered. The drinks were about 900 yen each, but were great. We had margaritas, they use top shelf tequila. We had three different types of mojitos. They either use an entire fresh lime in each one or a ton of fresh mint. They have good beer on tap. Good coffee. And the food... It runs the gambit. From pasta to tacos. We really enjoyed being able to eat a lot of different dishes. We were not disappointed in any aspect of this place, and if you read my other reviews, I usually always have something negative to say about even the best of places. The service was on point. We went in Saturday night to see if we could make a last minute reservation for Sunday. They were super nice about it, and found a spot for us. On the way out the main chef said to me in English, "see you tomorrow." As a foreigner and as someone with a lot of visible tattoos, I often expect people to roll their eyes when I walk in the door. So it was nice to feel welcomed. The next day, there are servers left and right, we never had to flag someone down. They were taking away our empty glass and giving us clean plates constantly, but not to the point they were in the way. They were attentive and well trained. This is a great place to come for an anniversary, a nice date. Birthday. At least for my income level. We left mostly full, and I had 4 drinks plus coffee, my wife had 3 drinks plus coffee and the bill was 14,000. Which I felt was 100% on point for the experience we had.

The food was absolutely delicious, and I was surprised at how reasonably priced it was♪ I also ordered the specially ordered simmered tuna eyeballs😋 That was also delicious👌 The menu was extensive, the atmosphere was great, and the staff were very friendly, making it a wonderful time🍀 I'll definitely be back👍 It's no wonder this popular restaurant is so hard to get a reservation at!

(Translated by Google) It's in my neighborhood. I love the atmosphere and can't even count how many times I've been here (lol). The service is great, the food is great, and it's great value for money. The shamisen sounds great, and you can relax and enjoy it whether you're with a group or sitting at the counter. The sashimi was plump and delicious, with no fishy smell. Deep-fried sashimi is the best thing about this cold winter. ➡ We went here for a family birthday party! The food is great, the service is great, and it's great value for money!!! (Original) ご近所です。お店の雰囲気が大好きで、何回利用したかわかりません(笑)接客よし、お料理よし、コスパよし。 三味線の音がほどよく、グループでもカウンター席でも、ゆっくり楽しめます。 お刺身は魚臭みがなく、プリプリで美味しかったです。寒い冬に揚出し、サイコー ➡ 家族の誕生日会で利用しました!やっぱり食事よし、サービスよし、コスパよし!!!

(Translated by Google) First of all, I was surprised at the number of dishes on the menu! Just looking at the menu, I thought it was cheap overall! It was also great that they had all-you-can-drink! The staff were energetic and friendly, so it was a good experience 👌 However, I personally felt that the food was disappointing! Some of the sashimi platter was a bad color, and the shrimp (my companion's) had their back intestines removed, which bothered me! However, the price was cheap, so I think it's a matter of choosing between price and taste! Of course, there was delicious sashimi too!! The heart and liver sashimi were also delicious! The raw oysters had a bit of an odor, but there aren't many restaurants that serve raw oysters, so as a raw oyster lover, I was very excited! Also, the momiji oroshi was quite spicy. I tried about five other dishes that are not in the photo, but the taste was normal, and I got the impression that some of the dishes were worth the price, but maybe a little expensive! Also, it was my mistake to order without really looking at the menu, but if you want draft beer with the all-you-can-drink option, it's about an extra 500 yen! I ordered it without knowing, and only realized after my first glass of Nodogoshi draft beer came. At first, I thought 2000 yen for all-you-can-drink was cheap for a beer lover, but for Nodogoshi draft beer, I thought it was a reasonable price, or maybe a little high. There are so many items on the menu that I haven't ordered yet, so I think it's a good idea for people who use it regularly to look for something that they like! One reason is that I set my expectations too high because of the menu, the atmosphere of the restaurant, and the lively staff, but I also gave it two stars because the food was disappointing! Sorry for the long post, but thank you for the meal. (Original) まず入ってメニューの多さに驚きました! メニュー表を見ただけの段階では全体的に安いなーとも思いました! 飲み放題があるのも良かったです! スタッフさんも元気があって愛想も良くて気持ちがよかったです👌 ただあくまで個人的にはお料理が残念というような印象でした! お刺身盛り合わせは色が悪いものもあり、エビは背腸が抜かれてなかったり(同伴者のも)、私は気になりました! ただ価格は安かったので、価格と味のどちらをとるかというところだと思います! もちろん美味しいお刺身もありました!! ハツとレバー刺も美味しかったです! 生牡蠣は少し臭みがありましたが、生牡蠣を置いているお店自体多くないので生牡蠣好きとしてはとても興奮しました! あと紅葉おろしが結構辛めでした。 写真にないお料理もあと5点ほど頂きましたが、味は普通で、値段相応かこれなら少し割高かもなーというメニューもあった印象でした! それとメニュー表をあまり見ずに頼んだ私のミスですが、飲み放題で生ビールを飲みたいのならプラス500円?くらいでした! 知らずに頼んで一杯目にのどごし生がきてから理解し、最初はビール党からすれば飲み放題2000円は安いと思いましたが、のどごしなら妥当か少し高めな金額かなと思いました。 メニューが多すぎてまだまだ頼んでないメニューばかりですので、普段使いされるかたは自分の好みなものを探して行くと良いのかなと思いました! メニュー表、お店の雰囲気、スタッフの活気で勝手にハードルをあげてしまっていたという理由もあるのですが、お料理が残念だったという点から星2つでした! 長文失礼しました、ご馳走様でした。

(Translated by Google) An acquaintance of mine recommended Kanade, and I went there after much deliberation. The atmosphere was great, and the menu was huge, so everything looked so tempting that I couldn't order everything I wanted to eat. There were so many tempting dishes that I couldn't order everything in just one visit. It was a lively place, and I became good friends with the staff! Everything I ate was delicious, and it's a famous restaurant that I often hear about from Tawari. Next time, I'd like to bring my parents and try the dishes that I wasn't able to try this time. (Original) 知り合いに教えてもらい、念願のかなでに行きました。雰囲気が良くメニューの数もとても多く、食べたい物全部頼めないくらいどれもそそられました。そそられる物が多すぎて1回来ただけじゃ頼みきれませんでした。活気があり、スタッフさんと仲良くなれました!何を食べても美味しく、さすがたわりからもよく聞く名店です。 次は親も連れて、今回食べれなかった料理を食べたいです。

Suganoya is a horse meat restaurant located near Kumamoto Station, offering a variety of fresh horse sashimi dishes such as lever sashimi, red meat, tataki, and sakura yukke. The restaurant is known for its excellent basashi (raw horse meat) and prides itself on the freshness and umami flavor of its dishes. With a vast independent farm focusing on nutrient-rich pastures and homemade feed, Suganoya ensures high-quality ingredients.
It is located inside Josaien. They are quite popular due to the horse meat snacks sold here. It was my first time trying horse meat and I managed to try the croquette and curry pan which was delicious. They also sell basashi here.

A shop specialized in horse meat under the world famous Kumamoto castle. Tried both the raw horse meat sushi and croquette, to be honest I could not tell the difference between horse meat and beef. My first time trying horse meat, can't say I hate or love it but will go for beef if you give me the choice between the two.
Otto L — Google review
Have had ‘sakuraniku’ in the past, but couldn’t help another serve in the city known for eating horse meat! Suganoya is the perfect way to satisfy curiosity, offering several options, but the sushi option is the king. The meat was so tender and flavoursome, paired nicely with a small serve of rice and glaze. Easy to purchase a ticket via a vending machine, just wait for your number to be called.

The Netherlands are known for their croquettes, but not with horse meat. So I had to try the horse meat variant for ¥250 which was crispy and juicy from the inside. The texture is different from the Dutch croquette because we don't stuff them with vegetables like unions like they do. Croquette approved!

The restaurant offers an exquisite dining experience, with dishes that exceed expectations due to the exceptional quality of the ingredients and the chef's remarkable skills.
Such a wonderful dining experience! The sommelier/waiter selected perfect pairings for each dish this season! Friendly explanations and visits from the proprietor/chef to explain each course as it was served: drawing inspiration from his childhood and the local “fruits of nature”! We were prepared to spend a bit of ¥¥¥ as it was a special occasion. Be sure to get the wine pairing for a top class meal!

We had a truly memorable dining experience here! The food was some of the best we'd ever had and highlighted the local ingredients of Kumamoto with skill and creativity thanks to Chef Miyamoto (the hamburg, wagyu, and dessert were our favourites!). Equally important, our waiter, Keisuke, worked hard to make our experience special but also informative. He explained everything in English as best as he could and was extremely attentive. Thank you Keisuke for making our night perfect. To all those reading this, I highly recommend Antica Locanda! You will not be disappointed.

An absolutely delight along the way to the Island. It's a small local sushi place. The chef is very friendly and his mom is very service oriented. Sushi comes with different sets with local or near fish supply. We have ordered two and they taste fantastic. Make it a very good going into Amakusa!

Fabian G — Google review
(Translated by Google) Could you please charge Tetsuro Degawa? I was finally able to visit our restaurant, which was introduced in , for lunch on Saturday. The restaurant has the feel of an old-fashioned sushi restaurant, and is run by a family of three, including the previous couple and their son, who is the second generation, giving it a homely feel. We ordered Nishiki Nigiri (7 rolls this time), Maccha Nigiri (10 rolls), and Chawanmushi, which are highly rated by word of mouth. ⭕️Nishiki Nigiri (7 rolls) ⚫︎Nishiki Nigiri uses local fish caught in the Matsuai area and fish caught in the waters around Amakusa. ⚫︎There were 7 types of fish: conger eel, stone sea bream, sayori, purple sea urchin, sea urchin, sea bream, and snail. ⚫︎Purple sea urchin, which is hard to eat, is extremely delicious. ⚫︎I had never eaten rare shaku or ainame nigiri, and they were very delicious. ⭕️Matcha Nigiri (10 rolls) ⚫︎Matcha Nigiri only uses local fish caught in the Matsuai area. ⚫︎Fish species were provided in two parts. It was so delicious that I forgot to take a photo of the second nigiri. lol The first time was ear squid, tiger prawns, flounder, horse mackerel, and mackerel. The second time is conger eel, cutlassfish, kohada, western shellfish, and boiled rice. ⚫︎I ate the ear squid after watching it swim around energetically before cooking, and it was quite delicious. ⚫︎Many of the local fish from the Ariake Sea are not served at franchise sushi restaurants, so I was surprised at how delicious they were as well as being rare. ⭕️Stone sea bream miso soup ⚫︎The soup stock from the stone sea bream creates a richly flavored miso soup. ⭕️Chawanmushi ⚫︎The sea bass and shrimp chawanmushi also has a rich flavor. I think the taste is good, but personally I think both the miso soup and the chawanmushi are a bit salty. The sushi made with local fish from Kumamoto was surprisingly fresh and delicious. I felt proud that Kumamoto's fish was the best. I thought it would be better if there were a variety of ways to eat it, such as salt and lemon, roasted, and pickled. It was very delicious. Thank you for the meal. 🙏🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️ (Original) 出川哲朗の充電させてもらえませんか?で紹介された当店に、土曜日のランチでやっとお邪魔することができました。 店舗は昔ながらのお寿司屋さんの風情で、先代ご夫婦と2代目の息子さんの親子3人で、アットホームな感じで営業されてます。 口コミで評価の高い、錦にぎり(今回は7巻盛り)と、まっちゃにぎり(10巻盛り)と、茶碗蒸しを注文しました。 ⭕️錦にぎり(7巻盛り) ⚫︎錦にぎりは、松合地域で獲れる地魚と、天草近海で獲れるお魚を使っておられます。 ⚫︎魚種は、穴子、石鯛、さより、紫ウニ、しゃく、ミルガイ、あいなめの7種でした。 ⚫︎なかなか食せない紫ウニは最高に旨い。 ⚫︎珍しいシャクやあいなめのにぎりは食べたことなく、とても美味しかったです。 ⭕️まっちゃにぎり(10巻盛り) ⚫︎まっちゃにぎりは、松合地域で獲れる地魚のみを握っているそうです。 ⚫︎魚種は、2回に分けて提供されました。 美味しかったので、2回目提供のにぎりの写真を撮り忘れてしまいました。笑 1回目が、耳イカ、車海老、ひらめ、あじ、さわら 2回目が、穴子、太刀魚、こはだ、ニシ貝、おこぜ ⚫︎耳イカは、調理前の元気に泳ぎ回るところを見せていただいた上で食しましたが、なかなかの美味です。 ⚫︎有明海の地魚は、なかなかフランチャイズのお寿司屋さんで提供されていない魚種が多くて、珍しいと同時に、こんなにも美味しいのかと驚きました。 ⭕️石鯛の味噌汁 ⚫︎石鯛から出る出汁が濃厚な旨味の味噌汁に仕上がっています。 ⭕️茶碗蒸し ⚫︎スズキと海老の茶碗蒸しも、濃厚な味わいです。 味は良いと思いますが、私的には味噌汁も茶碗蒸しも少し塩味が強いでしょうか。 熊本の地元のお魚のお寿司は、素材そのものが新鮮で旨みがあり驚きでした。熊本のお魚は最高だなと、何だか誇らしい気持ちになりました。 塩とレモンや、炙りや、漬けなど食べ方のバリエーションがあるとより良いかなと思いました。 とても美味しかったです。 ご馳走様でした。🙏🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️

(Translated by Google) This is my top pick for local sushi in Kumamoto. I took the lower route to Amakusa to stop here. The menu is interesting. They have a set menu called Nishiki and Matsuai. Nishiki features seafood from the open sea, while Matsuai features seafood from the inland sea. I like how they don't categorize it as high-grade or regular. I didn't want to have to choose one, so I went to both. September 2024 Matsuai offers: tentacles, kuruma sushi, horse mackerel, sea bass, squid, conger eel, and hairtail. Conger eel Gizzard shad Pomfret The hairtail and pomfret were grilled over straw. The hairtail in particular had a wonderful aroma. Nishiki fish: Clams, Bluefin tuna, Arctic scallops, Amberjack, Japanese giant scallop Conger eel, Tokobushi sea bream, Amakusa red sea urchin Mackerel, Swordfish Amakusa red sea urchin is incredibly sweet. It's not just rich, but has a refined touch. The umami is deep. The Japanese giant scallop was also unusually tasty, and felt like the king of local fish. This sushi has raised my expectations for my upcoming trip to Amakusa. And what a reasonable price!

Oden may not be the most thrilling food, but this place elevates it to the next level. At 6500 yen for the omakase, it’s a great value for the quality and quantity. A must try if you have any interest in oden at all.

(Translated by Google) I would like to visit [Oden Matsumura] located on the 1st floor of South Five Second Building, 5-18 Minamitsuboi-cho, Chuo-ku, Kumamoto City, Kumamoto Prefecture. There are counter seats and table seats in the back! This is a restaurant I wanted to come to during the cold season, and it's a great place where you can see the oden cooked in a pot right in front of the counter! ◯Drinks ・Draft beer Asahi Super Dry ・Iwai's Highball ◯Mukago Shinjo, Jerusalem artichoke suri nagashi, tomato and shungiku dressing ◯Sashimi Flounder, sea bream, sea urchin, and octopus. It contains seasonal ingredients, so it's not a huge amount, but it's a reasonable price of 3,960 yen. ◯Oden We had boiled eggs, deep-fried tororo kombu, mochi cheese kinchaku, radish and chicken meatballs, homemade shumai, wagyu beef tendon and green onions. The seasoning takes advantage of the dashi stock, giving the impression of a bland taste, but you can feel the flavor of the ingredients! ◯Kuruma prawn cream croquette A croquette with a rich flavor and packed with the delicious flavor of shrimp. ◯Silver cod Saikyoyaki I thought it was cheap, but it was quite small and there was almost no place to eat on the stomach side, but the taste was still delicious! ◯Fried horse mackerel The fluffy meat goes perfectly with the tartar sauce! I go there to eat oden, and it's great that you can order a variety of snacks and fried foods just like at an izakaya! Thank you for the meal!

Authentic Japanese restaurant
Japanese restaurant
Tomita is conveniently located within walking distance from various transportation stations in Kumamoto, making it easily accessible for visitors. Guests have praised the restaurant for its exceptional hospitality, as the staff went above and beyond to accommodate them, even providing a personalized menu translation. The elegant ambiance and meticulously prepared dishes left diners thoroughly satisfied with their kaiseki dinner experience.
Had an amazing experience, was late as we got lost, but they were waiting for us (we then discovered we were the only diners), they had prepared and translated the menu/ingredients, and showed incredible hospitality and gave us an amazing kaiseki dinner experience. Would wholeheartedly recommend if you are in Kumamoto and want an authentic food experience.

Of course, the food is hand-crafted, looks beautiful, and tastes amazing. Everything tastes good 😍 They have a nice selection of Japanese sake, and the drinks were explained well and tasted really good🥰 Every year, I feel moved and refreshed!

(Translated by Google) It's a clean shop with a nice atmosphere. All the dishes had a sense of creativity that took a lot of effort. The appearance of the plates and presentation is also quite nice. You will definitely want to take pictures. I just wish they had more expensive ingredients so I could spend more money. For example, I want eel style → eel. There is an abundance of Japanese sake. But Yamazaki was the only whiskey available. Everything was high quality and delicious. (Original) 雰囲気もいいし清潔なお店です。 すべてのお料理には手間をかけた創作感がありました。お皿や盛り付けなど見た目もかなりいいです。絶対写真を撮りたくなります。 ただもっとお金出してもいいから、もっと高食材にして欲しかった。例えばうなぎ風→鰻にしてほしい。 日本酒は豊富。でもウイスキーは山崎しかなかった。 全てが高級でおいしかったです。

I had a course meal for 11,000 yen, and the visuals were so beautiful that it was a waste to eat any of the dishes (lol) The dishes made with plenty of seasonal ingredients are amazing. It was really delicious... It's not a restaurant that someone like me can come to many times, but I definitely want to come again! Definitely recommended for celebrations. Thank you for the meal! ! !

(Translated by Google) We made the big mistake of asking for an additional person 30 minutes before arriving. Despite this, he immediately accepted me and everything was fine. I had a great time and had no complaints about the food and service. In particular, the sea urchin and conger eel are exquisite! I was so humbled that the general went out of his way to see me off on my way home. This is a restaurant that I would like to go to again privately, or where I would like to take customers. Recommended. However, if I had to complain about it, it would be that I could hear the voices of the people sitting next to me. Well, it's not a Japanese restaurant, so it might be considered luxurious, but it's a restaurant where you can really feel like you're in a Japanese restaurant. (Original) 来店30分前になって、1名追加をお願いする大ミス。にもかかわらず、即、受け入れて下さって事なきを得る。 食事、サーブに文句の付けようもなく、最高の時間を過ごす事が出来た。特に、雲丹と鱧は絶品! 帰りもわざわざ大将が見送って下さって、恐縮するほど。 またプライベートで行きたい、又、客を連れて行きたい店です。お勧めします。 ただ、難癖つけるとしたら、隣席の声が結構聴こえることくらいですかね。まあ料亭じゃあないんだから、贅沢というものでしょうが、ほんとに料亭気分が味わえる店ですよ。

Japanese regional restaurant
Mori Karashi Renkon is a traditional dish from Kumamoto that dates back over 370 years. It involves stuffing lotus roots with a mixture of Japanese mustard powder and barley miso, then coating them in egg yolk and frying them in oil. This local specialty was created during the Edo period to help cure a sick feudal lord. Vegetarians visiting Kumamoto should make sure to try this unique dish made from deep-fried lotus root stuffed with mustard and miso paste.
Very delicious.

Mustard lotus tastes great, and it contains mustard inside. So it’s special and makes the trip to Kumamoto castle better.

Sachin ( — Google review
(Translated by Google) I'm not from Kumamoto, so the only time I can find authentic mustard lotus root is when the National Delicious Market is held at a department store. However, mustard lotus root for special events (not just mustard lotus root) is expensive and hard to come by. Intuitively, it costs about 1.5 times the price of buying it in Kumamoto. As a mustard lotus root lover, I end up devouring mustard lotus roots wherever I go in Kumamoto. On this day as well, I visited Kumamoto Castle in the morning when the gates opened, but before entering the castle I was sucked into this mustard lotus root. The mustard lotus root here is so delicious that it ranks among the top in the mustard lotus root world. Ah... After repeating "mustard lotus root" so many times, I started to want to eat mustard lotus root again... Renkon could also hear the repeated calls... (Original) 私は熊本の人間ではないので、本場のからし蓮根に出会えるのは、百貨店で全国うまいもの市が開催されている時ぐらいです。 しかし、催事の時のからし蓮根は(からし蓮根に限らずなのですが)、割高でなかなか手が出ません。 感覚的には熊本で買う値段の1.5倍ぐらいします。 からし蓮根愛好家の私としては、熊本に行ったらどこへ行ってもからし蓮根を爆食いしてしまいます。 この日も朝の開門時間から熊本城を訪問したのですが、入城前にこちらのからし蓮根に吸い込まれました。 ここのからし蓮根は、からし蓮根界隈でもかなり上位に入るぐらい美味しいからし蓮根です。 あぁ…こんなにからし蓮根を連呼していたら、またすぐからし蓮根が食べたくなってきた…。 連呼も蓮根に聞こえてきた…。

(Translated by Google) I received it as a souvenir 😍 The lotus root is crunchy, the mustard is spicy, and it's really delicious ❣️ There was no flavor from the batter, so I thought it would be good to eat it without it💦 It's a little expensive, but I'll definitely come back next time I go to Kumamoto. I'd like to eat some warm food while walking around. (Original) お土産に頂きました😍 蓮根シャキシャキ、辛子がツンときいてて、凄く美味しいです❣️ 衣の旨味はなかったので、外してたべても良いと思いました💦 少し高いけど、熊本に行った際はリピ確定です、暖かいものも、食べ歩きしてみたいな😍

(Translated by Google) The original mustard lotus root shop It's acrid, but it's a delicious taste that leaves you wanting. From things to eat on the go to things that could be processed snacks such as mustard lotus root chips. Standard products also come in large, medium, and small sizes. I bought the medium size because it would be a great souvenir from my trip to Kumamoto. Mustard lotus root cannot be frozen, so be sure to store it in the refrigerator. If it's too spicy, add mayonnaise. (Original) 元祖からし蓮根のお店 ツンとくるけど、後を引く美味しさです。 食べ歩き用のものから、からし蓮根チップスなどの加工したオヤツになりそうなもの 定番商品も、大きさによって大、中、小、とありました。 熊本に行ってきたお土産に喜ばれるので、中サイズを購入しました。 からし蓮根は冷凍不可なので、必ず冷蔵庫で保管してください。 辛味が強すぎる時は、マヨネーズをつけてください、ということです。

Private Lodge Cafe & Diner is a hidden gem near Kumamoto Castle, offering a diverse range of vegan and vegetarian dishes. This tranquil cafe also hosts yoga and cooking classes, providing a space for like-minded individuals to connect. Additionally, the establishment organizes premium trips led by local experts who prioritize sustainability and community engagement.
A wonderful place with great, relaxing atmosphere. The owner is a very nice and friendly lady who can speaks English and served you with healthy & delicious vegan/vegetarian food. English menu is available. Good value for money (lunch is around 830yen~1250yen). I had their Today's Genmai lunch (880yen) which was a typical Japanese brown rice set, and it included salad, a small bowl of soup and a drink. Definitely recommend it~
Vivi — Google review
One of the older local vegan restaurants with good food at affordable prices. Definitely worth the visit. The ambiance is really chill, they have some soothing music and incense burning. Pretty Hipster. The owner said they ran this place for 15 years, and started serving vegetarian food from 10 years ago. We were visiting Kumamoto Castle from Fukuoka, and walked here for lunch. They don't have car parking so be ready for that. The restaurant's on the 2nd floor, so keep your head up when you're searching for it haha we totally walked passed it the first time. They have a lunch menu from 2-4pm and a dinner menu from 4pm onwards -- it wasn't clear when they close. We visited on 24/12/18 and the menu seems to be quite similar to the photos here. There was a genmai lunch(rice set) 880yen, a pasta lunch 880yen, a special lunch of 1250yen, which has both the rice and pasta, and a burger890yen. The lunch sets come with a small salad, cup of soup, free drink, and the special lunch has a dessert too. The pasta and rice set changes each day I think. The day we went, the pasta had a tomato sauce base and the rice set had a brocolli croquette with a creamy sauce with spinach. There were 5 of us so we all got different things. I got the special lunch and so ate the pasta and rice and it was great! I got to have a larger serving of pasta for free too just by asking. One friend had the burger and she loved it! For the drink we had coffee and chai. I personally had the chai and it was pretty good. The dessert was also okay. But overall, the food was quite filling and tasted great, and for all we got the price was quite affordable. I'm definitely visited if I come to Kumamoto again.

There is very little in the way of vegan restaurant food in Kumamoto, but Private Lodge is the shining exception. The core of their menu is healthful and delicious vegan macrobiotic food. They have two specials a day, one is typically pasta and the other is curried vegetables. 850 Yen gets you a small salad, the special, and coffee, tea, or vegan chai. The days they are open are sporadic, so you will need to check their Facebook page and be able to read Japanese. By late morning they post their day's menu, if they are going to be open. But they are almost always open Saturdays from noon to about 4 p.m. The owner also cooks at a second location elsewhere in Kumamoto, and I think this is mentioned on their Facebook page as well. I am so grateful that a vegan business like this exists in Kumamoto. The food is excellent and affordable, and this restaurant is very deserving of public support.

The olive oil in the salad is very fragrant and delicious. It should be a high-grade olive oil. Grain coffee is dark and has a special experience. The more you drink it, the better it becomes.

Nestled in Kumamoto, NINi is a hidden gem that promises an unforgettable dining experience. Located on the third floor near Fuzakigumae Station, this chic bar and restaurant offers a delightful array of dishes, including mouthwatering salmon fry and decadent cheesecake with a unique chocolate base. The atmosphere is serene, making it an ideal spot for intimate gatherings or casual nights out with friends.
A very chill, semi-hard to find secret bar and restaurant. (It's on the 3rd floor of an unassuming building next to other restaurants) The pork was delicious. The bartender expertly made us off-menu Negronis.

There are about 3 tables and 8 seats at the counter. On this day, the place was full, but there were only two staff members: the cook and the bartender. I don't know if it's always like this, but as expected, the food was served incredibly slowly, and even if I wanted to order, I couldn't even call out to them 😅 This is the only drawback, so I went there when I had free time. is good. Each dish was surprisingly large in quantity and all delicious. Creme brûlée with banana cinnamon ice cream is my personal favorite 💞 As for the drinks, the cocktails are made in front of you by the bartender, making them very authentic. There is also a snack menu, so I think it would be a good option for a bar at an after-party. They also have cute birthday plates, so I definitely want to order them.

(Translated by Google) I think you can eat aged meat and Kyushu Wagyu beef in Tokyo. The specialty of this restaurant is Kyushu Wagyu beef. Steak Chateaubriand using only the core. Serve with the surrounding meat scraped off. It's such a luxurious way to bake it that it's a waste ^^ There is a small shop on the second floor of the building. Enter the store and receive an explanation of today's meat. Miyazaki Kuroge Wagyu Beef Chateaubriand. I have reserved meat in advance. They will also ask you if you would like lean meat or fatty meat. It seems that you carefully examine and select your favorite meat by the reservation date. This time I recommend it! It seems that the Miyazaki Kuroge Wagyu beef was just the right amount of tenderness. It's a small shop. One table and six counter seats. There is a large selection of wine on the shelves visible beyond the counter. It's in the wine cellar, but there seems to be plenty of it outside of the store as well. Opus One was stacked with many boxes with contents. The kitchen is partitioned so you can't see it, but you can tell it's small. There is a limit to the amount of cooking that can be done inside, so I think they do a lot of preparation. ■Order Chateaubriand 200g salad Burdock soup Conger eel horse sashimi A little alcohol, total around 33,000 yen The salad and Kyushu vegetables are very delicious. Barafu from Saga, which resembles an ice plant, is distinctive. Crystal vegetables with a beautiful sparkling surface and a salty taste. Conger conger from Amakusa. The finish is a little hard but has a chewy texture. It has a nice aroma and is good to have for the first time. Burdock soup, hot soup. Easy to drink with no fiber and you can feel the burdock extract. Horse sashimi has good taste and texture. It's cut a little thicker, so it would be easier to eat if it were a little thinner. It shows the steak both before and after it is cut. It will be less than half the size. I want to eat extra meat because it's sure to be delicious, but I want to make sure that the meat I serve is in the best condition! This is the store's motto. The meat is grilled in the kitchen and placed on a griddle. The garnished vegetables are carrots, broccoli, corn, and Japanese yam. It's not a typical sizzling iron plate, so it won't get too hot even when placed on it. When you cut it, it has a beautiful rose color. Moist flesh and clearly fibrous texture. A nice meaty flavor oozes out. The aging, cut, and flavor unique to cut-out chunks of meat. You can chew on it forever! The meat they purchase is carefully selected and carefully controlled. The sauce to go with it is black pepper, rock salt, horseradish, wasabi, and garlic soy sauce. You can choose bread or rice. The rice is Shichijo rice from Kumamoto. The chef gets nervous because he concentrates so much ^^ actually···. The waitress who served us both at the beginning and while the food was being prepared was a lovely smiling waitress and a slightly nervous proprietress. The chef is in the kitchen, and I hear angry voices all the time, but I can't make out what he's saying. After I finished serving the steak, the chef came out and looked at me with a smile on his face! ! I thought it was someone else! He is a very nice person and has a smile on his face. It seems that she is extremely nervous because she just wants to eat delicious meat. If you say so. . . That voice is the shop's famous BGM♪ I feel like I heard a voice from heaven (lol) As a price breakdown guide, Chateaubriand steak costs about 22,000 yen for 200g. Horse sashimi costs about 5,000 yen. (Original) 熟成したお肉や九州和牛なら東京でも食せると思います。こちらのお店の特徴は九州和牛。 のシャトーブリアンを芯だけ使用してステーキにします。 周囲のお肉は削ぎ落として提供。もったいないくらいの贅沢な焼き方ですね^^ ビルの2階に小さなお店があります。店内に入り本日のお肉説明を受けます。 宮崎黒毛和牛シャトーブリアン。 事前に肉の予約をしてあります。 肉質も赤身がいいか脂身多めがいいか聞いてくれます。 予約日までに好みの肉を吟味して選んでるようです。 今回はオススメで!と頼んでおり適度な柔らかさの宮崎黒毛和牛になったようです。 小さなお店です。卓が一つとカウンター六席。 ワインの品揃えがかなりあり、カウンター越しに見える棚に、 ワインセラーにとあり、お店以外にも溢れるほどあるようです。 オーパスワンは何箱も中身ありが積まれてましたね~。 厨房は仕切られていて見えないけど狭めなのはわかります。 中で出来る調理は限られているので下準備をしっかりされてるのだと思います。 ■注文 シャトーブリアン200g サラダ ごぼうスープ 鱧 馬刺し お酒少々 全部で33000円くらい サラダ、九州野菜がとっても美味しい。アイスプラントに似た佐賀産のバラフが特徴的。キラキラした表面が綺麗で塩分を感じる水晶野菜。 鱧、天草産。少し固めだけど歯ごたえを感じる仕上がり。香ばしさがあり始めに口にするのにいい。ごぼうスープ、温製スープ。繊維なく飲みやすくしっかり牛蒡のエキスを感じます。馬刺し、味、食感が良い。 少し厚めに切ってあるのでもう少し薄いと食べやすい。ステーキ、カットする前とした後の両方を見せてくれます。半分以下のサイズになります。余分なお肉も美味しいに決まってるので食べたい・・・が、提供するお肉は最高の状態のものを!というお店のモットーがあります。厨房で焼かれた肉は、鉄板にのってきます。付け合せの野菜は、人参、ブロッコリー、トウモロコシ、長芋。よくあるジュージューとする鉄板ではないので置いても熱が入りすぎることはありません。カットしてみると美しい薔薇色。しっとりしてる肉質とはっきりわかる繊維質。 いい肉味が染み出る〜。切り出した塊肉ならではの熟成とカットと味わい。いつまでも噛み締められる!仕入れるお肉はかなり厳選して徹底管理してるとのこと。合わせるソースは、黒胡椒、岩塩、ホースラディッシュ、山葵、にんにく醤油。パンとライスを選択できます。 ライスは、熊本の七城米。 集中するあまり、シェフは緊張します^^ 実は・・・。最初も調理中も接客対応してくれたのは素敵な笑顔のウェイトレスさんと少し緊張している女将さん。 シェフは厨房におり、ひっきりなしに怒ったような声だけ聞こえてくるのですが、何を仰ってるのか聞き取れません。 ステーキを提供しおわったらシェフが出てきて恐る恐る見てみると、満面の笑み!!別人かと思った! めちゃめちゃ良い方で笑顔が板についています。 どうやら美味しいお肉をひたすら食べて欲しいという思いから極度の緊張状態になるようですね^^ そう言えば。。。あの声お店の名物BGMなんです♪ なんて天の声を聞いた気もします(笑) 価格内訳目安として、 シャトーブリアンステーキは200gで22000円くらい。馬刺しは5000円くらい。

(Translated by Google) This is a long-established steak restaurant in Kumamoto. The extra-thick Chateaubriand (broiled blue) steak is the best. If you like steak, this is a sacred place that you should visit at least once. (Original) 熊本のステーキの老舗名店です。極厚のシャトーブリアン(焼き加減はブルー)のステーキが最高です。ステーキ好きなら一度は訪れたい聖地ですね。

生パスタと薪焼き 風雲 FUMO is an Italian restaurant with a tranquil atmosphere, perfect for intimate gatherings or dates. The stylish interior resembles a bar and features a spacious counter with just eight seats, offering an exclusive dining experience. Located in the back of a new building, it offers a relaxing space to enjoy aromatic cuisine and wine.
Such an amazing find! This Italian restaurant has been open since January 2024, but I'm only just discovering it 10 months later! It's a small restaurant with only 8 counter seats available, but it's well worth the reservation. ☺️👍 The appetizers are small and easily shareable. I recommend sharing the rest of the dishes as well (although, the carbonara is crazy delicious; you may not want to share it 🤣). Every dish we tried was superb. The service was impeccable. I can't wait to go back very soon to try even more! 👍👍

I would consider this to be more like an Italian fusion restaurant, small with just 9 counter seats. Friendly service. Ordered various appetizers and two pasta dishes. I liked the appetizers, fresh ingredients, especially enjoyed the marinated small tomatoes. The sauce on the raw fish was a bit too overpowering. The pastas were al dente, with fresh seafood, but didn't like the sauces as much.

Ingredients were all high grade, especially the seafood. Seafood fritti was excellent. Tomatoes burrata was also excellent.

(Translated by Google) I went on a girls' night out at the recommendation of a friend. The store is set to open in January 2024, so you can see the orange door at the back of the new building. It was a counter-only restaurant, so I was able to see how the food was being prepared in the kitchen, and since it was my first time to try straw grilling, it was interesting to see the straw grill table. As I said, it was really delicious, each dish was carefully prepared and presented, and I ate it right away, but I wanted to eat it again right away. The elaborate appetizers and chewy fresh pasta made by Japan's best owner are exquisite. The straw-grilled meat was delicious, and the meat eaten with sauce, salt, mustard, and various seasonings was also great. And you can choose from two types of dolce, which has a rich pistachio cheese flavor that will make you addicted to it. It was a wonderful restaurant, not only for the food, but also for the atmosphere and friendly staff. I would like to recommend it to everyone. (Original) お友達のオススメで女子会で利用しました。2024年1月オープンということで新しいビルの奥にオレンジのドアが目印のお店。 カウンターのみのお店でキッチンで料理ができる様子も見ることができ、藁焼きは初めてだったので、藁焼き台も見れて興味深かったです。 お噂通り、本当に美味しくて一品一品丁寧に調理、盛り付けされてすぐ食べちゃいましたが、すぐまた食べたい料理ばかりでした。 手の込んだ前菜に、日本一のオーナーが作る生麺モチモチの生パスタは絶品。 藁焼きしたお肉も美味しくてソース、塩、マスタードと色んな調味料で食べるお肉も最高でした。 そして2種類から選べるドルチェも濃厚なピスタチオチーズがクセになりそうなオイシイお味 料理だけでなく、お店の雰囲気そして気さくにお話いただけるスタッフの方もいて素敵なお店でした。 皆にオススメしたいです。

Really terrific Italian restaurant around the countryside of Japan. My girlfriend & I were looking for a restaurant that would be a break from Japanese food and I thought this looked like proper Italian food with 0 Japanese localization which is what we were looking for. It’s a full course meal where everything was excellent. I highly rate the carbonara & pistachio cheesecake especially. Would definitely visit again when I visit Kumamoto with my girlfriend.

(Translated by Google) An impressive level of Italian food found in Uenoura. This is my favorite store that I go to now. An addictive pasta that you'll never forget once you try it. No matter what menu you choose, it's delicious, but what's surprising is that everything is handmade, starting with the noodles! Rather than the chewy feeling that is typical of fresh pasta, it has a firm texture and chewiness that will change the way you think about pasta. And what you definitely want to try is the famous "wood-grilled pork." It's fragrant and juicy, with the scent of wood burning in your nose...it's just the best. The restaurant has only 8 counter seats and is a special place where you can watch the chef prepare food up close. The crackling sound of wood burning makes you feel like you're in a small theater. The assortment of appetizers that appear in the lunch course is also impressive. Even the salami and pancetta are handmade, and you can feel the chef's passion in each dish. At this restaurant, you can enjoy not only the deliciousness of the food, but also the atmosphere, aromas, and sounds. Once you go, you're sure to become a repeat customer. (Original) 上乃裏で見つけた、感動レベルのイタリアン。 今、私が1番通っているお気に入りのお店です。 一度食べたら忘れられない、やみつきパスタ。 どのメニューを選んでも絶品ですが、驚くべきは“麺”からすべて手作りされていること! 生パスタ特有のモチモチ感というよりは、しっかりとしたコシと噛みごたえがあって、パスタの概念が変わります。 そして、ぜひ食べてほしいのが名物の「薪焼きポーク」。 香ばしくジューシーで、薪の香りがふんわり鼻に抜けて…もう最高です。 全8席のカウンターのみの店内は、シェフの調理風景を間近で楽しめる特等席。 パチパチと薪が焼ける音が心地よく、まるで小さな劇場にいるような気分になります。 ランチコースに登場する前菜の盛り合わせも感動もの。 サラミやパンチェッタまで手作りというこだわりぶりで、ひと皿ひと皿からシェフの情熱が伝わってきます。 料理の美味しさはもちろん、空間や香り、音まで丸ごと楽しめるこのお店。 一度行ったら、きっとあなたもリピーターになるはずです。

(Translated by Google) I visited in mid-July 2025. Counter seating is available, allowing you to watch the cooking. A wood-fire is constantly burning, so it might get hot in the summer if the air conditioning is weak, but it seems cozy in the winter. Appetizer and pasta of the day Wood-grilled pork Choice of two desserts from four options Appetizers: Salami salad Something with dried mullet roe(?) Homemade quiche, milk bomb? Chicken liver paste Grilled bonito with straw and myoga and anchovy sauce? The pasta was also incredibly delicious. I ordered the course this time, but I'd like to try ordering pasta a la carte next time I visit. The desserts also seemed homemade, and were all rich, hearty, and delicious. They offered a 200 yen discount with a drink set, which I was happy about. ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ There's no parking lot, so we used a nearby parking lot. The owner-chef and staff (or what?) were very friendly, and I think people who enjoy conversation would enjoy themselves. I'm not very good at talking, so I felt bad, but my companion seemed to enjoy himself. (Original) 2025年7月半ばにお邪魔しました。 カウンターの席のみで、調理の様子を眺める事ができます。薪の焚き火がずっと燃えてて、夏は冷房が弱いと暑いかもしれないですが、冬は居心地良さそうです。 前菜とその日のパスタ 豚の薪焼き 四種の中から二つ選べるデザート 前菜は さらみのサラダ からすみの何か(?) 自家製キッシュ、ミルク爆弾? 鳥レバーのペースト カツオ藁焼きみょうがアンチョビソース? それからパスタが本当に美味しくて、 この時はコースにしたのですが、次訪れることができたらパスタ単品を頼むとかもしてみたいなーと思いました。 デザートも手作りされているようで、どれも濃厚でしっかりしていて美味しかったです。 ドリンクがセットで200円引きになっていて、さりげに嬉しかったです。 ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ 駐車場が無いので近所のパーキングを利用しました。 オーナーシェフの方とスタッフ?の方がとても気さくで会話が好きな人も楽しめると思いました。 自分はあんまり喋るの苦手なので申し訳なくなってくるのですが、同行者が楽しそうにしてました。

(Translated by Google) Assorted appetizers: salad, green asparagus and mushroom frites, quiche, Spanish ham, salsiccia, 4 types of cheese (camembert, goat, buffalo, blue cheese with red wine) served with homemade apple jam, focaccia Genovese of purple sea urchin Straw-grilled bonito and swordfish Peperoncino with firefly squid, whitebait and early cabbage Cagliostro castle style pasta Truffle flavored carbonara Wood-grilled Aso red beef fillet and heart Salt gateau chocolate, pistachio cheesecake 4 types of pasta, all thin noodles are fresh pasta The purple sea urchin was said to be somewhere between Kagoshima and Amakusa, so I wonder if it's from Ushibuka or Akune? Wonderful sweetness that rivals Genovese. The fillet of red beef is so tender that it couldn't be any better. It's said to be Chateaubriand, but it's been a long time since I've had a fillet where I couldn't feel the fibers of the meat. The two types of dolce are both rich and delicious with a melty texture.

Fancy teppanyaki at a fair price. Everything is made fresh right in front of us on the teppan by a chef. We dined and chatted in a super pleasant atmosphere. We couldn’t get seats early, but we waited until 8:30PM and we were the only customers. Definitely recommend calling early or booking via internet. There are 3 options for courses, 8k, 12k and 18k. I think the middle option is the way to go here. Amount of food was generous, we were both quite full. Everything cooked expertly to order. Not the easiest place for those who don’t speak and read Japanese at least a little, but a good attitude and google tools gets you there. Highly recommended. Easily worth double in Tokyo.

Beautiful small teppanyaki restaurant. We had the small menu, and so very happy with the food quality and quantity.

(Translated by Google) I don't understand why everyone has such high reviews. After considering a long-established teppanyaki restaurant as a possible option for my birthday, I decided on Fujiwara. I was looking forward to it, but a part-time girl gave us a brief explanation of the dishes, but the owner, who was nearby, said almost nothing about the rest of the food. The owner was serving three groups, including us, and even though we had finished our drinks, he didn't ask us what we wanted, even though he kept pouring wine for the person next to us... Also, it was hard to understand how to choose a course meal online. To make matters worse, the smoking area was close to our table... Even though we were eating a course meal, the strong smell of cigarettes ruined the meal. Having read the reviews, I had some hope that the owner would communicate with us until the end, but I didn't sense any hospitality at all. I read some negative reviews about the part-time girl, but I could see that she was trying her best to serve our customers, and I thought she was better than the owner. I should have just gone with my husband and gone for a long-established teppanyaki restaurant. It was a very disappointing dinner. (Original) みんななんでこんなレビュー高いのかわかりません。 自分の誕生日の候補で老舗の鉄板焼き屋さんと迷い、私はこちらのFUJIWARAさんに決断。楽しみにしていったら、まず料理の説明を軽くバイトの女の子がしてくれたが、後からの料理について、近くにいる店主からはほぼなし。店主が私たちを含め3組相手していたが、私たちには酒が空いてもなんにしますか?もなし、隣にはワインを何度もついでるのに、、、 それとネットでのコースの選び方がわかりにくい。 おまけに喫煙所が席に近くて…… コース料理食べてるのに思いっきりタバコの匂いがして、料理が台無し。 口コミを見て来たので最後まで店主さんがコミュニケーションとってくれたりしないかと少し期待しましたがホスピタリティ精神も全く感じることができませんでした。 バイトの子を悪く書かれた口コミを見ましたが、バイトの女の子は一生懸命接客しようというのが見れて私は店主さんより良かったと思いました。 主人の言う通り老舗の鉄板焼き屋さんにすれば良かった。 とても残念なディナーになりました。

Teppanyaki restaurant
If you're looking for a memorable dining experience in Kumamoto, "Teppan Kaiseki Rindou" is the place to be. Nestled within the elegant One Station Hotel Kumamoto, this restaurant showcases the best of local cuisine with a focus on Wao beef and fresh seafood, all expertly grilled on a teppan right before your eyes.
(Translated by Google) A teppan kaiseki restaurant located in the basement of The New Hotel Kumamoto (which will change to One Station Hotel Kumamoto from December) in front of Kumamoto Station. There are 5 counter seats x 2 tables, and the arc shape makes it easy for 3 people to have a conversation, making it easy to use for dinner parties. I ordered the ICHO course (20,900 yen including tax and service charge, drinks not included). The person in charge of cooking is from a Chinese farm, and the food incorporates the essence of that cuisine, and the appearance is stylish. Below is the menu. Beef soup →The main dish is the brand beef Wao soup stock. It has a good flavor and is perfect for starting. Appetizer → Sashimi of red shrimp, red sea bream, etc. from Amakusa Kesennuma shark fin and Shanghai crab miso stew →Used with lemon as a bowl, it is well simmered and delicious. live abalone →It has a crunchy texture that goes well with the sauce. 2 types of seasonal vegetable dishes ~Teppanyaki style~ →It is served in two plates, and the presentation is good as well as the taste. Grilled shabu with sautéed foie gras Kumamoto Kuroge Wagyu beef “Wao” fillet steak Served with 5 flavors: Amakusa salt, wasabi, Japonais sauce, red flakes, roasted garlic →Kumamoto brand beef. There is also a flambe performance, which is fun to watch and delicious to eat. Meal (rice) →It's full of meat until the end. Meat-based ochazuke dessert coffee With attentive customer service, the service throughout the hotel, not just the iron plate, is excellent, so it is recommended as a place to stay. (Original) 熊本駅前のザニューホテル熊本(12月からワン・ステーション ホテル熊本に変わるみたい)の地下にある鉄板懐石。カウンター5席x2テーブル、弧状なので3名などでも会話しやすく、会食でも使いやすいです。 ICHOコース(税サ込20,900円、ドリンク別)を注文しました。料理責任者の方が中華畑で、そのエッセンスが盛り込まれており、見た目もお洒落。以下メニューです。 牛出汁 →メインで登場するブランド牛和王の出汁。よく味がでており、出だしに最適な味 前菜 →天草産のあか海老、真鯛等のお刺身 気仙沼産フカヒレと上海蟹味噌の煮込み →レモンを器にして、よく煮込まれており美味しい 活あわび →コリコリした食感でソースとよく合います。 季節野菜のお料理2種~鉄板焼スタイルで~ →2皿で提供され、味はもちろんプレゼンテーションもセンスよい。 焼きしゃぶ•フォワグラソテー添え 熊本黒毛和牛「和王」フィレ肉のステーキ 5種の味を添えて 天草の塩、山葵、ジャポネソース、レッドフレーク、ローストガーリック →熊本のブランド牛。フランべパフォーマンスもあり、見て楽しい、食べて美味しい お食事(ご飯もの) →最後まで肉づくしです。肉メインのお茶漬け デザート コーヒー きめ細やかな接客で、鉄板に限らずホテル全体のサービスが抜群によいので、宿泊先としてもおすすめです。

I went to "Teppan Kaiseki Rindou" which opened on the basement floor of The New Hotel Kumamoto (* 'ᵕ' )☆ It was the first time I'd ever eaten such delicious teppanyaki. The story of teppanyaki begins with the Wao meat broth served before the appetizer! Every single dish cooked in front of me was stylishly presented and tasted excellent! In addition, there was wine recommended by the sommelier and whiskey that went well with the meat, making it a luxurious meal. I'd definitely like to go again!

The food is cooked on the teppan counter in front of you, which makes it a great performance. You can enjoy delicious food while chatting with the chef, and the staff are very friendly. There is a wide variety on the wine list, so you can also enjoy drinks. The prices are not so reasonable that an average office worker would want to visit frequently, but I think it is a place where you can relax and enjoy an exceptional time on a special anniversary. (Original) 特別な記念日に利用したりするレストランです。 価格は結構しますが、和牛や新鮮な海の幸など、厳選された旬の素材を楽しめます。目の前の鉄板カウンターで焼いて貰うので、パフォーマンスとしても良いと思います。 シェフと会話をしながら美味しい料理が楽しめて、店員さんの接遇も良いです。 ワインリストも色々あり、飲み物も楽しめます。 普通のサラリーマンでは頻繁に来られるほどリーズナブルな金額ではありませんが、特別な記念日に格別な時間をゆったりと楽しめるお店だと思います。

Tonkatsu restaurant
Located in the Shinshigai Shopping Street of Kumamoto's city center, Katsuretsu Tei is a well-known pork cutlet eatery. The restaurant is popular among locals for its high-quality pork dishes. While some diners found the pork loin to be tender but slightly dry, others were less impressed with the deep-fried oysters.
This Tonkatsu is truly Michelin-worthy. Absolutely delicious! The pork was clearly properly bled, so there’s no unpleasant smell. Even though they used a tougher cut of meat, it was surprisingly tender — you can really feel how much care the chef puts into it.

Atsuage Kurobuta roast-katsu zen is superb. Katsu is tender and juicy with the right amount of fat to meat ratio. White rice is fluffy and goes very well with the katsu. Only downside is the cabbage which isn’t as juicy and refreshing.
Randy N — Google review
I was really skeptical before dining as the reviews were mixed. Came at 445pm and there’s still a queue. Waited for about 30 mins for the table and 20 mins for food. Theres plenty of empty seats but not enough staff to clear the tables and move the queue. There’s also 150 yen difference between English menu and Japanese menu. So we referred to the Japanese menu. The meat was surprisingly tender and melt in your mouth. Wasn’t expecting the tenderness. Worth the experience if you don’t mind waiting. Come early! And by 8pm all the queue slots would have been snapped up

I give this restaurant 5 out of 5 stars. I ordered menu 1, the classic pork loin tonkatsu set. The cutlet itself is outstanding. The coating is very crisp and light, but not hard, and the meat inside is juicy, tender and full of clean pork flavour. There is a gentle richness from the fat, but it never becomes heavy. This is the kind of tonkatsu that reminds you why this dish can be a favourite for years. What makes the meal truly special is everything that comes with it and the way you are guided to eat it. You receive a bowl with sesame seeds and a small wooden pestle. Grinding the sesame at the table already smells wonderful. When you mix these freshly ground seeds with the house Japanese Wafu sauce, you get a deep, nutty and slightly fruity tonkatsu sauce that clings perfectly to the meat. Add a little of the sharp yellow mustard horseradish and the flavour opens up even more. One bite of pork with this sesame Wafu sauce and mustard already feels very complete. The cabbage salad on the side is very finely shredded and extremely fresh. It gives crunch and lightness to every bite. I used the yuzu dressing for the cabbage. This dressing has a bright citrus aroma, gentle acidity and a little sweetness, so it cuts through the richness of the pork and keeps the meal balanced. Rice and miso soup complete the set. The rice is glossy, sticky in the right way and seasoned just enough by the sauces you let drip onto it. The miso soup is on the darker side, pleasantly salty, with a comforting depth rather than just plain broth. There are also Japanese pickles and grated daikon on the table. The pickles bring a classic sour and salty contrast. Even if you do not eat many of them, they show how carefully the set is put together. The grated daikon works beautifully with the sauces and with the pork if you want a fresher, lighter bite. The variety of condiments on the table lets you create many different versions of tonkatsu during one meal, from rich and sweet to bright and sharp, and all of them work. The atmosphere is warm and cosy with dark wood tables and all the bottles and small pots arranged in front of you. It feels like a place that takes tonkatsu very seriously but still stays relaxed. The staff are incredibly efficient and kind at the same time. Tables are cleaned and reset almost immediately, orders move from kitchen to guests with impressive speed, and still the servers remain attentive and friendly. You can feel that the whole team knows exactly what they are doing. This meal reminded me why tonkatsu used to be my absolute favourite food and it brought that feeling back completely. Perfectly fried meat, carefully chosen sauces, fresh sides and a very professional but warm service. For anyone who loves tonkatsu or wants to understand how good it can be, this restaurant is an essential visit.
Paul O — Google review
Absolutely worth the wait! Although the queue usually takes around an hour, I was lucky to get a seat within 20 minutes. The tonkatsu was perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy inside — one of the best I’ve ever had in Japan. Definitely recommended for anyone who loves authentic tonkatsu!
Joon T — Google review
The Tonkatsu served here is absolutely delicious, the pork cutlet is cooked just right retaining the softness and juiciness on the inside with a light crispy batter on the outside 😋 You must try this if you are in Kumamoto!
KC C — Google review
So good that we didn't even take pictures. Free tea refills (there's a carafe at your table). Free Cabbage, miso, and rice refills. The tenderloin donkatsu was the best since we liked the leaner cut and more meat. The yuzu sherbert was really refreshing and Fruity, pretty icy tho. My boyfriend liked the black sesame ice cream because it was so creamy and reminded him of oreo ice cream. They were extremely busy and were a bit slow with us due to the heavy flow of patrons. But overall it was great service and lots of English menu options and speakers. Making the sauce was fun the Japanese style
Allison L — Google review
Whilst i’m not a Tonkatsu person, this has got to be the best i’ve ever eaten so far. The selection of condiments and sauces that pairs super well with the katsu is amazing, it’s having a totally different taste profile unlock every single bite. I went early dinner, so there wasn’t much of a queue, but it does take awhile after being seated for the main to arrive - but was it worth the wait? Totally! Definitely will return whenever i’m back in Kumamoto!

Ramen restaurant
Tengaiten Main Branch is a compact and popular venue known for its Kumamoto-style ramen. Conveniently located near Suido-cho Station and adjacent to Renshoji Park, this small shop offers a limited menu featuring classic toppings such as Kikurage mushrooms and pork. Renowned for its garlic-topped ramen, the shop's specialty is the char siew ramen with eight flavorful and chewy meat slices.
Best ramen in the region - their specialty is the garlic on top. Order the char siew one and you get 8 amazing chewy meat on top of your noodles. Come early at 6pm to avoid any wait. English menu is available.

Great local ramen restaurant, it's about a 5 minute walk from the Shimotori shopping Arcade and consistently full. We only waited for about 10 minutes around 9 pm at night so great for post shopping dinner. The menu only has 3 ramens, regular (with a bed of garlic), spicy, and chashu (comes with 8 pieces of chashu), the soup itself is the same for all three. The noodles are thin with a very rich and flavorful soup. Personally I liked the regular flavor but if you're hungry order the chashu one 300 yen for the extra pork belly, you won't be disappointed. The normal and spicy ramen are 750 yen each while the chashu one is 1050. Toppings like eggs cost extra (150 yen) but I think that's reasonable, or you can save the cash and opt for extra noodles instead which almost ever patron did. I went the extra mile and ordered 1 spicy and 1 chashu ramen (worth it)

The only restaurant in the whole street with such a keep growing long queue at 10pm night. Wait for 15 mins in the cold street night, but the taste is just so brilliant and it’s definitely worth for queuing for this delicious ramen. Very unique and great taste that you can’t find even in Hong Kong this ramen heaven.

Very local Kumamoto styled ramen - characterised by fried garlic sprinkles on thick tonkutsu soup. Generous amount of Charsiu and I love the fresh garlic soaked in soysauce toppings (but abit on salty side).

Located very near Tsuruya shopping mall. Small little ramen joint opens at 6pm to 2am. Visited during winter so there is not much of a queue. Staff is very friendly, and service is very prompt. Order the regular char siew noodles(1000 Yen) and its seasoned with good amount of garlic powder. The broth is definitely very thick and tasty. If you want something more exciting, try the Spicy ramen(3 heat levels). The space is cramp but it serves up a very cosy atmosphere for you to enjoy dinner.

The ramen here is really good.more clear based soup compared to the ones in Fukuoka and prices are pretty reasonable with good service. You can choose spicy soup if you don’t like clear soup. I ordered the clear soup base and in my opinion compared to Keika ramen, this is definitely better😋

Akagumi Ramen is a no-frills stop with counter seats, serving fried chicken and ramen noodles made with pork bone broth. It's conveniently located within walking distance of Kumamoto Castle. The rich yet clean-tasting broth, perfectly firm noodles, tender roasted pork slices, and onsen tamago make for a satisfying meal. While there's no English menu, ordering is made easy by using Google Lens to translate the menu or pointing to photos in reviews.
Really good ramen! Highly recommended, the broth was amazing, noodles were cooked perfectly, the chashu was the right texture and tasted great. All in all something that’s worth trying, especially if you’re a ramen hunter, this has to be on the list. Went slightly earlier than lunchtime to secure a seat without waiting, go earlier!

Their Kumamoto ramen broth is a thing if dreams: rich, thick and creamy. The best pork broth I ever had. They have the option with all toppings and we went for it. It was well served. I was fully entertained watching the kitchen staff work their magic while sitting in the counter . I watched the cook lift two whole pork spines while stirring the broth. The broth is super porky and very well clarified. I was in heaven eating it. Would 100% force all my friends to eat. there.

One of the better-to-best ramen I've had. Great broth. Lots of ingredients. Very generous portion size. It was 5pm and I hadn't eaten since breakfast, so I was hungry. The yukubari ramen was so much that I couldn't eat anything else. The gyoza were cheap and OK. The server was friendly and spoke English. Interesting building with large wooden beam roof frame.

One of the best ramens I’ve had in Japan! Kumamoto ramen is different than Hakata style. I was not a big fan of Hakata style but Kumamoto is by far the best in my opinion. You have to sign in inside & wait outside. I got the spicy ramen (level 2) it had a kick to it which I enjoyed!! Set A comes with 5 gyoza pieces & rice Set B comes with fried chicken & rice. The gyoza is really good! I didn’t try the fried chicken but it looked good as well.

Horrible experience dining here. We’re told that dining is 2hours. We ordered within 10 mins. Drinks came fast but the BBQ meat came 1 dish at a time. As though there was a CCTV in the small room monitoring us, the next dish came after we finished the current meat. Food was decent but the slow waiting time stopped me from ordering more portions. The Japanese diners beside our room had their orders fulfilled pretty quickly compared to ours. Not sure why there was a discrepancy.

(Translated by Google) I knew the name from before because it was advertised in various places in Kumamoto City. It's located at the intersection of Ginza Street and the arcade, in the center of the downtown area. I expected that they would buy the whole Akaushi cow, but the meat has a lot of marbling. It's not bad. But it's not so good that it deserves rave reviews. There are not many staff members, and their response is not good. Overall, it feels like an izakaya that's running a yakiniku restaurant. All the seats are private rooms, so it's good if you want some privacy. This is just an unnecessary addition, but... Google's reviews are divided into high and low scores, but I think it's important to note that the people who give it an unusually high score tend to have very few reviews. (Original) 熊本市内の色々な場所に広告が出ているので、名前は前から知ってはいた。 場所は銀座通りのアーケードとの交差地点という、繁華街中心にある。 あか牛一頭買いということで、そうだろうなとは思っていたけれど、肉はサシが入っているのが多いという印象。 不味くはない。ただ、絶賛するほど美味いというわけでもない。 店員の数も少ないし、反応も良くない。 総じて、居酒屋が焼き肉屋をやっているという印象。 全席個室なので、プライベート空間が欲しいと感じる際は良いとは思う。 蛇足ではあるが、、、 Googleの評価は高得点か低得点かに分かれているが、やけに高得点入れている人は口コミ数がやたら少ない人ばかりという部分に注目すればよいと思う。

(Translated by Google) I selected this restaurant because I wanted to have a private room for a dinner party and enjoy yakiniku with red beef. It was my first time to try grilled red beef shabu-shabu, but it was delicious, sweet and spicy, with eggs. The long tongue and rare cuts of zabuton and ichibo were also delicious. The staff were young and energetic. I was more than satisfied with the price, and was able to enjoy my meal and drinks at my own pace. I was surprised by the air conditioning. There wasn't much of a smoke smell, and it was comfortable. Thank you very much!

Komurasaki (Kamitori Center Branch) is a cozy local restaurant situated beneath the Kamitori shopping arcade in Kumamoto. The shop offers Kumamoto-style ramen, featuring thick noodles in a flavorful pork-based broth topped with garlic.

The rustic decor adds to the inviting atmosphere, while the tantalizing aroma of ramen whets one's appetite.
I'm probably not the best person to comment on ramen, as I'm by no means an expert. Still, Komurasaki is one of the most popular ramen spots in Kumamoto and has been here for 70 years. It's showa era, with various signatures on display. Ramen is good and under ¥1000.

One of my favorite ramens I enjoyed in Kyushu. Kumamoto Style ramen It's a tonkotsu ramen with vegetable and chicken broth. It's nice and light. You won't feel heavy after eating it. The decor is super old school and the vibe is like a step back in time. Locals and vistores all done here. We got in right before the lunch rush happened and it was good that we did because it got busy real quick.

Tried to visit a range of iconic ramen shops across Kyushu and this was near the bottom of the list in terms of ramen. It did have the clear garlic flavor that is supposed to be characteristic of Kumamoto, but the pork was largely flavorless and the broth and noodles just average. Gyoza were quite good with super thin skins. The atmosphere had the cool vibe of a local shop frozen in time since the 1970s.
