Wasakado Su

Nestled in Ikebukuro's Higashi-dori, this washoku restaurant serves rice cooked in a donabe (clay pot) using Niigata Prefecture's premium rice, resulting in perfectly textured grains. The attention to detail extends to homemade furikake and other accompaniments. The dishes, lightly seasoned to enhance the umami of the ingredients, include braised pork, mackerel miso, and exceptionally fresh sashimi, all pairing wonderfully with sake. With attentive service and aromatic dishes, each visit leaves you wanting to return.
