Rakumiya Marugen
A seafood izakaya run directly by Ito fish market traders. 3 min walk from Ito Station. The signature 'uzuwa set meal' is only available here and at sister restaurant Marutaka. Uzuwa (mackerel tuna) spoils quickly and can only be enjoyed near the source. Additive-free, local fish focus. Fans travel from Hiroshima, Osaka and Tokyo. No reservations; expect evening queues.
814 Tabelog reviews (score 3.49), 31,929 saves. 'I always stop here when in Ito,' 'Uzuwa set meal exists nowhere else in Japan,' 'Worth the bullet train from Tokyo.' Many repeat visitors. Price increased from ¥1,280 to ¥1,480 in 2025 due to inflation. Some comments about portion size. Overall positive. No fake review evidence.
