Edo era restaurant, as it first opened in 1801. When you eat at Komakata Dozeu, you are eating the same menu that was served over 200 years ago. The wooden restaurant building also retains its original Edo era appearance and atmosphere.

Nakasei

@veronicaflores

Established in 1870, Tempura Nakasei is known for its kakiage-don (¥3,000), topped with crispy prawn and clam kakiage. Featuring a garden with carps swimming in the pond, the atmosphere here is like that of a traditional ryotei restaurant.
