Savor the renowned seafood rice bowl overflowing with fish from the Shonai coast, while gazing out at the port
About this spot
Located right beside Sakata Port, this is a spot seafood lovers cannot resist. The ground floor fresh fish shop displays an array of seasonal seafood freshly caught from the Shonai coast, and on the second floor, the restaurant "Kaisendonya Tobishima" serves the famous seafood rice bowl heaped with fresh ingredients. Outside the window spreads Sakata Port, and dining while gazing at anchored fishing boats is a luxury unique to a port town. This popular establishment is frequented by locals seeking seasonal Shonai coast fish, and lines often form during lunch hours. After your meal, browsing the ground floor for dried fish and fresh seafood souvenirs makes for a satisfying highlight befitting this seafood-focused course.
Tips
About 3 minutes by drive from Hiyoriyama Park, situated near the port with free parking. During peak lunch hours, queues are inevitable, so consider timing your visit to avoid the rush or arrive early. If purchasing fresh fish or dried seafood as souvenirs, bringing a cooler bag is wise. Some menu items sell out, so arrive early if you have a particular favorite in mind.
Best time to visit
Approximately 1 hour 15 minutes required. Timing your visit slightly outside peak lunch hours is ideal, arriving before popular menu items sell out
