・This is a great value restaurant located on the second floor of Harada Fresh Fish Shop in Kuwata-cho, about 10 minutes from Okayama Station. It's a famous restaurant that satisfies all the requirements of a fresh fish shop: freshness, volume, and taste. It has a long history, and it's easy to see why it has been able to continue for so long. The lunch is very satisfying, but in the evening there is also an all-you-can-drink sake option. (Male, 60s, Unemployed)

・The fish at this restaurant is very fresh, and all the dishes are delicious. The boiled fish in particular is very tasty, with a sweet and spicy flavor that really brings out the flavor of the fish. The accompanying deep-fried tofu and root vegetables are also excellent. I also order the thick fried horse mackerel every time I go. The owner of this restaurant catches the fish himself, so the fish is incredibly fresh. (40s/female/self-employed)

The white soy sauce is mixed with the vinegared rice, so you only need to dip the sashimi in wasabi. The husband, a Hanshin Tigers fan, adds a nice touch! (40s/female/civil servant)

・It's a traditional Japanese house. The price changes depending on the market price, but you can eat the extra-large fried horse mackerel that is on the menu. It's by far the biggest I've ever seen! There are a few other menu items, but they're all voluminous and the small side dishes are delicious. I haven't tried the popular Yellowtail King sashimi set meal, which is only available on weekends, so I'd love to try it! (40s/Female/Unemployed)

Address: 2-2-15 Achi, Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture

・A hearty sashimi platter of 8 kinds that goes beyond the limits. They directly source the fish caught that day, so none of the fish had any unpleasant odor and were very fresh and delicious! This platter, which allowed me to enjoy 8 kinds of sashimi all at once, was delicious. That day, I really wanted to eat some mackerel from Okayama, so when I asked the staff if they could include it in the platter, they were happy to accommodate, and even explained the fish to me in detail when they served it! I was very grateful! Of course, all of the fish was delicious! (Female, 20s, College/Vocational School Student)

Address: 46-1 Nakasho , Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture

・When it comes to special occasions, I always go to Iwae! I often take guests from outside the prefecture here, and they are always pleased with the size and deliciousness of the toppings. The one thing I always order is the "seared miso salmon." The salmon here is really tender, and you can especially enjoy the deep umami of the sear, which makes it addictive! Salpon (salmon with Ponzu (Citrus Soy Sauce)) is also delicious, but when topped with miso, the balance of sweetness and saltiness is just perfect... After enjoying fatty sushi, it's best to sandwich it with clam red miso soup! (30s/female/freelancer/part-time worker)
