Kadoya Dogo Station Store — Restaurant in Matsuyama

I arrived at the restaurant around 6:30 PM, drawn by the promise of sea bream sashimi which is a local specialty in Matsuyama’s Dōgo area. This place was clearly popular and I ended up waiting about 45 minutes before being seated. Once inside, the staff were incredibly polite and welcoming. They guided me through the meal with genuine care and suggest me how to enjoy the sea bream sashimi. The dish came beautifully presented with fresh slices of sea bream accompanied by egg yolk, seaweed and perilla leaves.

At around 2,000 yen, the meal was fairly priced considering the quality and care put into it. Despite the initial wait, you can explore the surrounding views near the restaurant...
