Hisami

At Hisami, the focus of the cuisine is local, and with Taiza Port only a few minutes away, they create a variety of fish dishes that use the fresh catch of the day. They have perfected local delicacies like seafood rice bowls, homemade sesame pickles, as well as seasonal dishes. Despite being a local restaurant, Hisami also has a lineup of international dishes, and special full course meals created around the taiza crab (locally-caught, and famous across Japan). The must-try item is the homemade heshiko (rice bran mackerel), which has become quite a local specialty. If you want to buy it as a take-home souvenir, it’s also sold right next door at Heshiko Kobo HISAMI, a café also run by Hisami. It’s quite stylish and newly opened.

Ninokichi

Ninokichi was founded in 1981 in Fukuchiyama, where a meat-eating culture has taken root. Currently, the restaurant is run by its second generation owner, Mr. Shinya Otsuki, and it's attracted attention for its French-based meat dishes, particular about their quality.
Quality is the top priority for beef used at Ninokichi. Beef here is sourced from far and wide, from local sources to as far as Kyushu in southern Japan, all to carefully select the best ingredients attainable at the time. The chef oversees most of the process, from aging to cutting, ensuring nothing gets overlooked in the pursuit of the best taste. Furthermore, as you can see by the beautiful presentation of the meat dishes here, Ninokichi is defined by the creative presentations of Mr. Otsuki, with his background in French cuisine. Unique menu items have included dishes such as smoked deer and bagna càuda dip, which many customers have enjoyed paired with wine. At Ninokichi, you're sure to find some surprising deliciousness in the mix of grilled meat and French-style cuisine.
