瀬戸内グリル じぱんぐ — Restaurant in Hatsukaichi

Let me share a little secret tucked away on the enchanting Itsukushima Island, better known as Miyajima.

If you ever find yourself strolling past the floating torii gate, maybe just after a walk through the shrine, and suddenly you are hit with that craving for something warm, soulful, and deeply satisfying, this humble little restaurant might be exactly what your heart and stomach need.

The ingredients are fresh, as if they were picked or caught that very morning. The flavor is deep, layered, and comforting in that way only a perfectly made bowl can be. It does more than fill you up. It stays with you.

What I had there was exceptional, a perfect balance of sweet and savory. It was not flashy, but the care in the preparation showed in every bite. Even the plating had intention behind it, thoughtful and simple, the way the island itself feels.

These dishes are not chasing trends. They are quiet classics. The kind of food that reminds you how a meal can feel like home even when you are far from it.

So this is not just a restaurant. It is a gentle reminder of why we travel, why we sit down together, and how a warm bowl of food can make a cold day feel less lonely.

Trust me, you will want to come back before your bowl is even empty. Enjoy...

We did see some people leave because they were too intimidated by the menu, but it's a big mistake because they even served French people who had to order in English with no problem. This is an absolute gem and should...

Came here because of the good reviews. The eel was nice and fluffy. The rice was way too soggy. Not sure if that's a regional thing? Way to mushy for my taste. Not my favorite miso soup either. There was a wait as there's only two tables downstairs and four upstairs. Do not come with a party bigger than 3 people. Simply won't fit. Really slow in cleaning and assigning seats, quick to bring food, though. English menu. Eel set with rice bowl and miso soup is Y1200. Would...
