くまうし 弟子屈本店 — Restaurant in Teshikaga

Kumaushi in Teshikaga is one of those rare, unforgettable dining experiences. The owner runs the entire place completely on his own—taking orders, cooking, serving, and handling payments. It’s truly impressive, especially considering the menu is quite extensive and not just a simple set of dishes.

Naturally, this means you’ll need to wait a bit, but the experience is well worth it. Despite being a one-man operation, everything we ordered was delicious and thoughtfully prepared. The soba noodles, in particular, were a standout—they’re handmade in-house and had an incredible texture and flavor that showed real craftsmanship.

What amazed us even more was that under all this pressure, the owner remained calm, kind, and welcoming. His dedication and energy brought a warm, personal touch to the meal. We were so impressed that we returned later to order a pork rice bowl to-go—and yes, it was just as delicious.

The restaurant itself is cozy, and being served directly by the chef himself makes the experience feel special and personal. The food quality far exceeded expectations, especially given the circumstances. It’s rare to see such passion and effort packed into a single-person-run establishment.

If you’re in Teshikaga, Kumaushi is a must-visit. Just be prepared to wait a bit—and bring your appreciation for hard work and great food. The owner is not only talented, but also incredibly charming. This place truly left a lasting...

The pork rice is unexpectedly delicious. Especially the new one, although the photo is very unattractive. The cook is very nice and he told us that he worked in Hong Kong for few years before and surprisingly he can speak Cantonese....

We went looking for a local soba joint and found this place. Fantastic food, fast service in a cosy space.

It is a one man operation but he still manages to serve fast even when busy.

We came here for dinner 2...
