This restaurant specializes in traditional river fish dishes with a long history. The eel rice bowl is delicious, and I also recommend the carp soup. The rich, sweet broth and the tenderly simmered carp, cooked until the bones are soft, harmonize perfectly and make for a truly delicious dish.

As the name suggests, this restaurant specializes in river fish dishes, including carp. The seating is spacious and the acrylic dividers provide added safety measures for COVID-19. Families can enjoy their meal here with peace of mind. The carp sashimi was fresh and had no fishy smell. We enjoyed it with two types of dipping sauces, vinegar miso and garlic vinegar miso, without getting tired of it. The eel dishes were also delicious and more affordable compared to restaurants in Kawagoe and Urawa areas. Personally, I was impressed by the juicy eel rolls. Despite entering late, the staff greeted us with smiles and provided excellent service, which we are grateful for.

I always visit this restaurant during bonus season. Today, I had the grilled eel again. The eel was so tender that it almost fell apart when I tried to pick it up with chopsticks. My usual order is the carp sashimi with vinegar miso. Today, they also served river shrimp when I ordered alcohol. Even my husband who doesn't drink couldn't resist nibbling on the eel bone crackers. We left feeling very satisfied. Thank you for having us.
