Hokui 43-do Oshokujidokoro
A seafood diner operated directly by a local produce shop next to Iwanai's bus terminal and roadside station. The daily-changing fish set menus use freshly landed catches from Iwanai Port. The star item, the 'Sugoi Teishoku' (sashimi + simmered fish + grilled fish for 1,500 yen), sells out soon after opening. Frequented by local fishermen, workers in overalls, and families — genuinely local pricing, not tourist-oriented. Featured in Meshitabi Hokkaido as 'worth waking up early for.' Jalan rating 4.0.
"Worth waking up early for. The value of the Sugoi Teishoku is unbelievable." "Eating grilled fish sets alongside the local fishermen — this is the real taste of Iwanai." "1,500 yen for sashimi, simmered fish, AND grilled fish — insane value."
