Osakanaryori uosei — Restaurant in Hakone

4.5 stars for sure.

Stumbled upon this amazing restaurant while walking from susuki grassfield. Very authentic restaurants with many locals frequenting it. Nice ambience and solid vibes.

I ordered the Maguro + fried horse mackerel. I highly recommend the entire set. Tuna sashimi was so good and fresh. Fried mackerel was fried to perfection - crispy on the outside and moist on the inside.

Grilled Smelt was also full of roe and grilled to perfection with a nice Smokey flavor.

The grilled saba was also really good. If you’re looking for something sweet, this saba has a great balance.

The squid innards was slightly powering but should be great with sake, which we didn’t order.

The only downside is potentially slow service because the restaurant is only run by a cute couple. It can get slow if it’s full.

All in all, amazing lovely place. Would totally visit this if I ever drop by hakone again. Cheers to the...

My girlfriend and I didn't want to eat at the buffet at our Onsen so we decided to stumble along the dark roads and were we in for a surprise. After walking about 15 minutes we were welcomed by this delightful restaurant. The chef and his wife craft delicious and fresh seafood dishes that range from sashimi combo plates to deep fried fish to a steamed to die for fish. Everything on the menu is incredibly fresh as the couple drive over to Odawara to pick up the catch of the day. This was an incredible meal.

Note: the chef and wife are the only workers so it takes a bit of time but it is worth the wait and they are so friendly. In addition, the chef is well spoken in English which really helped us and added to the experience.

Highly recommended if...

Walked 25mins from our ryokan in the dark but its 100% worth it!

Ordered the Tuna Donburi and the taste was out of this world. Not only was the sashimi fresh and lightly seasoned, the warm Japanese rice that accompanied the fish was perfect.

The place is run by a husband and wife pair, and they are very warm to welcome everyone :)

The ambience of the place is like being welcome into their home, with their own decorations all over as if you are a guest being offered a warm, comforting meal.

Thank you for the amazing dinner, and hope to get the opportunity to come back again for the Hakone...
