Isomarusuisan Nishiki — Restaurant in Nagoya

🐟 Isomaru Suisan Nishiki – Seafood Izakaya Bliss in Sakae, Nagoya

If you want fresh seafood, friendly izakaya vibes, and a place that doesn’t pretend to be fancy—this is your spot. Isomaru Suisan Nishiki hits hard with flavor, speed, and good energy.

👍 What’s awesome:

The seafood is super fresh. Order something from the tank, they’ll cook it right in front of you or for you fast at the table.

The crab… wow. Just insane texture and taste. Feels like you’re eating something special.

Drinks are great to pair — beer, sake, whatever you like with seafood. They don’t drag; service is quick.

The atmosphere is very “local izakaya” — casual, warm, and alive. Perfect for hanging out with friends over small plates.

⚠️ What to expect:

Small portions for some items, so you’ll want to order several dishes if you come with appetite.

When business is good (evenings, weekends), it can get crowded. Noise, bustle, and a bit of wait may happen.

Because of speed, sometimes things arrive quite fast — great if you’re hungry, but expect a mix of peaks in kitchen performance.

💡 Takeaway:

If you like seafood done well, cooked fresh, and served with friendliness, Isomaru Suisan Nishiki is a win. Bring a few friends, be ready to share plates, and let the flavors work.

Pro tip: Go a little before dinner rush, pick a few crab items, sashimi, a drink each — pace it so you enjoy everything, not...

Super helpful staff with delicious and affordable seafood dishes. If you're in the area, I would highly recommend this place.

Star dish for me was the kanimiso (creamy crab innards grilled at your table). Savory, crabby, salty, creamy, and full of umami! Been here so many times to have kanimiso and will definitely be back for more when I'm in Nagoya.

Would also highly recommend having the kanimiso onigiri - though they only serve the dish in the evening. So if you can only pop by during lunch, have the kanimiso and order some rice!

Rest of the seafood dishes were delicious...

Food, quality below average compare with other shop. Service, self service, maybe too many people but grill food is not my specialty, especially special seafood. Environment, hardware same as others but tightly which made feel uncomfortable. A bit disappointed! Not recommended if you want to try...
