Uomasa

(Source : 食べログ)

Uomasa is a sushi restaurant that is located in a premium location, only a five-minute walk from JR Otaru Station. The restaurant was introduced on a famous Japanese TV show, and it is very popular with locals. Sushi tends to be categorized as a high end cuisine. Uomasa, however, is also an izakaya (Japanese-style gastropub), so you can enjoy sushi in a lively and casual atmosphere. They offer a good selection of food ranging from premium seafood from Hokkaido to casual izakaya dishes that pair well with drinks. The dishes are reasonably priced yet are large in portion!

Casual Atmosphere

You can forget the idea that sushi is expensive here in Uomasa. It's like dropping in a gastropub and grabbing a quick bite of sushi. You can enjoy large portions of fresh sushi in a casual atmosphere.

Highly Recommended!

If you can't decide what to order, we recommend Uomasa Nigiri (2,700 yen). It features Hokkaido's premium seafood, including crab, sea urchin, salmon roe, thick Hokkigai (surf clam) and succulent shako (manits shrimp). The 15 pieces of sushi come with a steamed dish called dobin mushi.

Izakaya Menu at Sushi Restaurant

Unlike regular sushi restaurants, Uomasa offers popular gastropub dishes as well. Its signature dish Uomasa-yaki (850 yen) features some of Hokkiado's delicious products, such as sweet and rich sea urchin, potatoes, corned beef and plenty of cheese. This izakaya dish goes well with alcoholic drinks.
