Wine Kumano — Restaurant in Nachikatsuura

Michelin Star Restaurant that just hasn't been discovered yet! All the food was simply mind blowing. I have been to over 70 countries and have had tremendous food all over, this is truly a special restaurant. Tremendous use of seasonings, with balancing flavors, sweet, spur, savory, spicy . . . Amazing. We bought 6 dishes and half bottle.of wine with a smoothie to go along with the home made doughnut and ice cream dessert and it was under $60 USD!

If I could buy stock in this place, I would do it without hesitation! Don't miss...

In regards to the food, the most interesting part about many of their vegetarian dishes is that they use a special chili powder that's not too spicy but packs alot of flavor. Even my wife that doesn't like cheese liked the cheese fries because...

We travelled all the way from our hotel just to try out this restaurant, which did surprise us with its good food and nice atmosphere. We were most impressed with the panese mentaiko spaghetti. It was a bit spicy and super yummy. The second goes to the potato salad. The veggies were fresh and the whole dish was refreshing. We particularly like the crispy thing in the salad which added both the flavour and texture to the salad. All in all, it’s worth visiting. You could spend a happy night with good food that goes well with the wine. The chef could speak very good English and the staff helped us order a taxi to send us back to hotel. They were all...
