松月屋 日式料理 — Restaurant in Toucheng Township

My friend and I came around 7:30 PM on a Monday night close to when they were closing. Thankfully they were able to accommodate us. They only have a few tables available to sit but thankfully there weren’t many other patrons in at the time.

We were served very quickly. We ordered the nigiri set and a unagi don. Both items came with salad, soup and a dessert.

The salad had a mixture of corn, celery and imitation crab on top of it. The flavor was refreshing and the items worked well together.

The miso soup had a nice flavor and lots of small dried shrimp inside.

The dessert was a sweet potato mousse and was good and not too sweet so it really helped to tie the meal together.

The nigiri set came with four different rolls. They all already had wasabi and flavoring inside the roll so you don’t need to dip it into anything. The flavors were great. Half of the nigiri were torched and the other half were fully raw. The raw ones were a bit of the chewier side.

The unagi don’s flavor was great and I really enjoyed the pairing of the three sides it came with. I wish the unagi was a bit thicker though.

All in all, a solid dinner though a bit on the pricier side...

Ordered (胡麻松板猪) pork neck set meal, tastes delicious. Place looks unassuming but serves great homely japanese dishes. The meat was not tough and melts in the mouth with no pig odour. Ingredients were fresh and well plated (photo shared)

Partner ordered (炸猪排) fried pork cutlet that taste great - breaded a little like gyukatsu (pork version) by japan gyukatsu kyoto...

I stayed a month in Toucheng and this restaurant is my favorite. The foods are as good as what served in any top notch Japanese restaurants in Taipei but only half of the price. They don’t take many guests as the husband and wife are the only staffs. I took my families there too when they visited. I tried pretty much every dish on the menu. No...
