Hozumitei

Recommended by our hotel, although without a booking we were warmly welcomed by the owner, who personally advised us on our choice of the menu: an appetizer was offered waiting for the superb bonito sashimi, thick and I think slightly smoked, tender as melting butter, and a tasty beef tataki, follow...ed by a dish of jakoten, a fish specialty I discovered on this occasion, ice cream and a great sake. Service was friendly, very helpful with our language constraints and very fast. I wish I could come back often !

Fantastic food and presentation. You can tell they take great care in what they serve and how it is presented. The owner visited with us and everyone was very kind and friendly. The location was so easy to get to from the train station. This dinner was a highlight of our food experiences!

Enjoy exquisite local gourmet dishes, including unusual dishes, such as "Fukumen" and "Taimeshi" at this famous restaurant "Hozumi-tei" near Uwajima JR train station. "Fukumen" is served as a banquet dish and also served for the New Years day. It is colorful with pink and white sea bream and green l...eeks. These toppings cover the konnyaku or arum root noodles. You may mix them before served. "Taimeshi" is usually referred to as the white steamed rice and sea bream, however the Uiwajima version is very different. Fresh Sashimi seα bream served in a sweet soy-base sauce with chicken egg is to be poured on the white steamed rice and mixed with it. You might order additional rice bowl!

A warm welcoming, the owner of the restaurant went to speak with us and even tried to speak English (and a little bit French as French customers :)), He had excellent recommandations for the food. We took and excellent donburi and another bowl with sea urchin and fish eggs who were amazing! It is a...lso a very cute place with box to lunch with privacy. Thank you for this moment!

Using GPS to navigate the city and the numerous one way streets, we were able to maneuver our way to this local establishment. We were given a tatami seating area for us. We enjoyed the fresh seafood sashimi dishes, taimeshi special along with the local fishcake. Everything was well prepared and rea...lly quick. Always interesting taste the seasonal vegetables too as well the extreme care given to the presentation. Every dish is an artwork to please the eye. If you are ever way out here, this is a recommended stop.
