This was a big hit! The restaurant is located right next to the hotel, and although I originally planned to go to a conveyor belt sushi place, it was getting really cold so we decided to go to the one next door instead. We were seated in a tatami room with a slightly run-down feel, and the menu was written on paper and a whiteboard with limited options. I was a bit worried at first, but the bottled beer we ordered was classic and my daughter's cola came in a big glass, which made her happy. The appetizer was optional, and when we asked what it was, it turned out to be fresh spear squid sashimi, which we had to order. We also ordered the recommended soy simmered fish and fried potatoes because I was craving them. My daughter had the zangi set meal, and my wife ordered the sashimi set meal. The spear squid sashimi was incredibly sweet and crunchy, and my wife, who is a local, was delighted to have good quality squid. The soy simmered fish was thick and tender, with a rich umami flavor and a melt-in-your-mouth texture. The fried potatoes made from local potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and they were delicious. Even though I only had one beer, I was really enjoying the food. My daughter's zangi set meal was surprising as it came with sashimi too, probably horse mackerel. And my wife's sashimi set meal was like a sashimi feast. The side dishes were also delicious - simmered burdock and green beans, creamy pasta, and sesame spinach and bean sprouts in curry flavor. Everything was tasty and comforting to eat. The rice was good, and the miso soup was delicious. We managed to finish everything we ordered, and the total bill came to just under 5300 yen, which we found surprisingly cheap. The food was great, the price was great, and the interior was a bit old-fashioned. This is definitely a must-visit dinner spot in Higashi-Muroran. We really loved it, especially the soy simmered fish!

I went through the curtain based on my company's junior's recommendation. I was handed the lunch menu and decided to order the special bowl that I had heard about from my junior. The toppings change daily, so I was eagerly waiting to see what would come, and I was surprised to see a luxurious bowl with sweet shrimp, surf clam, squid, scallop, flounder, salmon roe, and shredded egg lined up in front of me for only 1,200 yen! Everything was fresh and delicious, I was completely satisfied. If you come to Muroran, be sure to visit this place. Highly recommended! *It was a hot day, so if there were wet towels available, it would have been a 5-star rating.

For lunch, I wanted to eat fish so I went to "Ajidokoro Izumi." I ordered the "Special Bowl + 2 Fried Oysters." The type of fish changes depending on the daily catch. It was delicious. The day before, I also enjoyed scallop sashimi, extra-large grilled Atka mackerel, simmered blowfish, and fried blowfish.

Today, I visited Izumi for the first time because I wanted to eat something healthy, like a fish set meal. The restaurant opens at 11:30, but I arrived a little early and the staff kindly let me in about 10 minutes before. They were so nice. As more customers arrived after 11:30, it seems like it might be better to come right at opening time to avoid waiting. The seafood bowl looked delicious, but I chose the grilled salmon set meal. The salmon was a bit small, maybe because it's not in season. The side dishes were seasoned just how I like them, providing a nutritious meal that is good for the body. I would love to visit again if I have the chance.

I stopped by during a business trip to Muroran. It's located in a building at the back of a tenant street about a 10-minute walk from the station. It seemed to be a popular place as it was almost full. I was aiming for the special bowl, but it wasn't on the regular menu, so I briefly panicked, thinking it was a limited-time offer. However, I found it on another menu and ordered the special bowl. It was fresh and delicious. The staff seemed a bit overwhelmed and there were some order mix-ups, but both the staff and regular customers were laughing and forgiving, which made me feel warm inside.

The other day, I had the opportunity to visit Muroran after a long time and felt like having lunch, so I visited a restaurant I had been to before. The seafood bowl was incredibly delicious, so I ordered it again and enjoyed it. The seafood was consistently fresh and the prices were reasonable. This place is definitely reliable in terms of deliciousness.

East Muroran Station, located in a building across from the Dome Inn, offers a great seafood bowl and fried horse mackerel set for 1300 yen! The clientele ranges from seniors to families with children. It's a good option when you're not in the mood for Toritatsu or Ippin while staying at the Dome Inn. #Hokkaido #Muroran #EastMuroran #Izumi

Kasube simmered dish (appetizer) for 500 yen, asparagus tempura, assorted sashimi. Tonight, I went to Izumi in Higashi-Muroran, Muroran. It's located on the first floor of a building, but not a building with restaurants, so it's a bit hard to find. However, the seafood dishes have a good reputation and it's always crowded. I arrived at 6 pm for dinner, but the last order is at 8:30 pm. The prices for alcohol are a bit high, so it's more about enjoying delicious fish dishes and pairing them with drinks. The appetizer can be chosen from simmered fish, either flounder, kasube, or cherry salmon. I chose kasube. The simmered dish is quite large and satisfying! Some people might find it enough on its own. The seasoning is also good. This goes well with sake. The sashimi is also delicious, and the asparagus is sweet and in season. I'm curious about the lunch set menu...

I had a great meal at the neighboring restaurant of Dormy Inn Higashi-Muroran in Izumi, Muroran. The salmon belly set meal was delicious with a good cost performance and generous portion. It seems they also serve as an izakaya at night. Thank you for the meal, I will definitely visit again.

A friend recommended this restaurant, which was a bit hard to find as it was located inside a building rather than a street-front store. The parking lot is across the building, and it seems to be free for customers dining in. The food was delicious and reasonably priced, with a set meal including one piece of fried horse mackerel for around 1600 yen (tax included). The fish was sweet and tasty. It seemed to be a popular restaurant as it was almost full when we arrived around 5:30 pm on a weekday. Whenever someone left, a new customer quickly took their place, showing that it was a thriving establishment.

This is in Muroran. It is located on the first floor of a building in Nakajima-cho. There is a Sun Plaza affiliated parking lot next to the building, and if you get a stamp at the store, parking is free. The special seafood bowl for 1200 yen is definitely worth trying, but unfortunately it is only available from 5pm. During lunch, there is a "Mori Mori" bowl for 1500 yen, which is similar to the special seafood bowl. The Mori Mori bowl is big and includes scallops, tuna, salmon, sweet shrimp, and salmon roe. It also comes with two side dishes, pickles, and miso soup. The lunch menu is more expensive than the dinner menu, which is a bit confusing. The sashimi set meal is also delicious, with a choice of sashimi and three side dishes. The grilled fish set meal includes sashimi like sweet shrimp and three side dishes, pickles, and miso soup, making it a luxurious option. The mackerel miso stew set meal and the grilled fish belly set meal are also popular choices. The soy sauce dish looks delicious too.

The entrance may be a bit hard to find, but this restaurant gives off a local izakaya vibe! Their special donburi is only 1200 yen (the photo shows it with 2 oysters for 1400 yen), which is a steal! The taste, freshness, and price are all unique to a town near the sea! If I have business near Higashi-Muroran Station again, I might just go back.

"The Delicate Balance Between Japanese and English" A friend from America invited A-san to go to the supermarket together the next day. When they met up and arrived at the place, it turned out to be a spa (natural hot spring bath). Having lived in Japan for over a year, A-san had gotten used to life here, but found it difficult to navigate conversations that mixed Japanese and English. Misunderstandings like this could easily happen if the content is not confirmed properly. In Japan, "スーパー" (super) usually refers to a "supermarket" or a "grocery store," while "Super" as an adjective means "great" and is used in expressions like "This is super yummy!" The story that follows is quite frustrating, so the long and trivial introduction is meant to calm the reader's mind before delving into it. The restaurant had 8 tables on a raised platform, and a counter with 6 seats. The dimly lit interior lacked a sense of cleanliness. In the kitchen, there was a middle-aged man who seemed to be the head chef, along with four other female staff members. They arrived at 11:40, just after the 11:30 opening time. The counter had 5 customers and a group of 3 at one of the raised tables. A-san sat at the counter in front of the head chef, received a glass of water and a menu, and ordered the "Special Donburi @1,200." The food was served 40 minutes later, and the whole dining experience lasted 55 minutes, causing A-san to miss their intended transportation. The tray included a seafood bowl, miso soup, two small side dishes, a soy sauce dish, and pickled radish. The toppings included golden eye snapper, sea bream, lean tuna, hokkigai, salmon roe, and a small scallop. The scallop was the freshest, but some of the other ingredients had a slightly off smell. The boiled hokkigai was tough and unpleasant, making A-san wonder why it was cooked instead of served raw. The rice, sprinkled with chopped seaweed, was not vinegared rice, but rather slightly soft and sweet. However, there was not enough rice compared to the toppings, and male customers might prefer a larger portion. The miso soup was slightly stronger in flavor than preferred, but well-made. The side dishes, including simmered vegetables and kelp, were lightly seasoned and enjoyable. As per the attentive reader, the following events did not go well, and A-san was left feeling very angry. For the full story and further details, please visit the following URL: https://ameblo.jp/zaby-zaby/entry-12761436633.html. Although it seems to be a popular restaurant, A-san will not be returning and does not recommend it. If they cannot handle the volume, they should reduce the menu options and seating capacity. Thank you for the meal.

This is my favorite restaurant that I have been to many times. It is my first time posting about it. The restaurant is located on the first floor of a building and specializes in fish dishes. They offer a variety of options from sashimi set meals to grilled fish and simmered dishes, with their rice bowl dishes being particularly famous. This time, I ordered the simmered dish set meal. The seasoning was not too strong and it was delicious.

Special seafood bowl for 1200 yen. Sorry if the name or price is wrong, but the cost performance is amazing. You'd probably pay double for the same thing at a tourist spot. If you want seafood in Muroran, this place is recommended. I want to come back at night next time. Just started using Tabelog! Please follow me if you like!

I suddenly felt like eating miso-simmered mackerel and went to Izumi-san's place. For 880 yen, you get 3 small side dishes, pickles, rice, miso soup, assorted sashimi, and a choice of fish... It's such a great deal♡ The miso-simmered mackerel is sweet and gentle in flavor♡ After taking one bite, I couldn't help but say "wow" (laughs). Many people were ordering the miso-simmered mackerel, and I can see why! Thank you for the delicious meal♪

I found a Japanese restaurant near the hotel where I stayed, and since I was in the mood for Japanese and seafood, I decided to try it based on the reviews on Tabelog. It was a great choice! The food was delicious and the prices were reasonable. My companion ordered the special seafood bowl for ¥1200, which came with a generous amount of fresh sashimi. I opted for the chef's choice set meal, which allowed me to choose grilled or simmered fish. I chose simmered flounder, and the set meal also came with sashimi and minced cutlet. It was a satisfying meal with a great taste, all for only ¥980. I don't visit often, but I would definitely come back if I have the chance. Thank you for the delicious meal.

I realized that I hadn't visited "Izumi" in San Plaza in Nakajima-cho, Muroran City for over 2 years! The reputation of "When you want to eat delicious fish, come here!" is true - the fish is delicious! The first time I had the simmered flounder, the second time I had the simmered squid, the third time I had mackerel miso, and this time I had a sudden craving for mackerel miso set meal and visited! The mackerel miso was delicious and the side dishes were also satisfying! It's a very good restaurant!

I had been interested in this place for a while, but they are closed on weekends and holidays and open from 11:30 to 13:30, so I decided to visit during my child's spring break. It is located on the 1st floor of Nakajima Sun Plaza. When I arrived before 12:30 on a weekday, the interior was divided into a counter and private rooms, and the staff were busy moving around. The place was almost full and there were many men in suits, so I think office workers come here for lunch. By 1 pm, the crowd had thinned out and there was an elderly woman eating alone at the counter. There were signed autographs displayed in the restaurant, but I couldn't decipher them, haha. I ordered the Special Donburi for 1200 yen. It was different from the picture, maybe it changes depending on the ingredients available at the time? The donburi had tuna, salmon, sea bream, scallops, and scallops, providing a satisfying meal. The scallops were small but sweet and delicious. I'm not a big fan of boiled scallops, so that was a bit disappointing. There were some sinews in the tuna. The vinegar rice had a mild vinegar flavor, making it briefly resemble plain rice. The cucumber vinegar dish in a small plate had a slight sweetness and was tasty. The green bean side dish was a bit too heavily seasoned, making it difficult to finish. Some sinews were found in the green beans, which made me smile. The miso soup had dried seaweed and green onions as ingredients, and the seasoning was just right. There is a Sun Plaza parking lot next to the building, and if you get a stamp at the restaurant, the parking fee is free. My child, who has a big appetite, found the portion a bit small and unsatisfying, but still said he wanted to come back. There were some things that made me wonder, but I had a delicious lunch for 1200 yen.

I had been interested in this restaurant for a while. It was crowded with salarymen. I chose the special bowl with less rice. It came with pickled vegetables, dried daikon salad, pickles, and miso soup. I noticed that those who ordered set meals also had a variety of side dishes. It's no wonder this place is popular among salarymen. The special bowl was delicious too. I'm curious about other menu items, so I'll definitely visit again.

Located on the first floor of a commercial building in the Nakajima area of Muroran City, this izakaya (Japanese pub) came highly recommended by a friend, so I decided to visit for dinner with a colleague during a business trip to the Muroran area. The interior of the restaurant has a Showa-era atmosphere, with counter seats and raised table seating. They offer a variety of menu options, including individual izakaya dishes and hearty set meals. While I opted for some drinks and a la carte dishes, my colleague ordered the "Sashimi Set Meal (Pine) for 1,650 yen." Every dish we tried was delicious, but being a seafood-focused izakaya, the fresh and generous sashimi platter felt like a great deal. The "Simmered Flounder" served as a complimentary appetizer was also exceptionally tasty and generously portioned. They also offer lunch service, making it a recommended spot for those looking to enjoy seafood in the area around Higashi-Muroran Station.
