Long-established since 1969.
Tabelog 3.47, 291 reviews (a level nationally recognized as a tarajiru specialty).
TripAdvisor 3.7 (1st of 26 in Asahi Town).
A genuine working-class diner frequented by regular truck drivers.
Overwhelming value: 1,000 yen for a whole Pollock tarajiru.
Independently confirmed by multiple blogs: 'Datte Toyamajin Dakara,' 'andtrip,' 'Yohkoyama Macrobino Life.' A review also confirmed 'the taste of tarajiru remains delicious and unchanged' (dismissing concerns about management change).

No sakura suspicion.

What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Founded in 1969. The representative shop of Asahi Town's 'Tarajiru Street,' serving the local specialty cod soup for 1,000 yen. Pollock is cut whole into pieces and simmered in a white miso broth. Served in an aluminum pot after you order, with tender fish, liver, and milt to enjoy together. A genuine working-class diner where large trucks fill the parking lot and regular drivers eat like they belong there. Tabelog 3.47, 291 reviews; TripAdvisor 3.7, ranked 1st of 26 in Asahi Town.
