Fake reviews removed

A genuine kappo restaurant where the owner, who holds auction rights at Ohara Port, personally selects seasonal local fish every morning. Features Ohara lobster (Japan's top catch area) and local octopus as mains, plus natural tiger blowfish and seasonal fish. The horse mackerel fry - crispy outside, fluffy and springy inside - is praised by regulars as a taste unavailable elsewhere. Featured on TV Asahi programs including Hatori Shinichi Morning Show and Manpei Aozora Restaurant from October 2025 to February 2026. Tabelog 3.25/70 reviews. Yahoo Maps 3.24/42 reviews.

Tabelog 3.25/70 reviews. Yahoo Maps 3.24/42. Regulars praise crispy outside fluffy springy inside horse mackerel fry - a unique taste unavailable at other restaurants. Others note might look cheap but considering the quality and quantity of ingredients, it is actually very good value. Reservations required, even on weekdays it fills up fast. Worth the 1-hour wait. Reported that local atmosphere has not changed after TV appearances.
