Oyster House
The only restaurant on Miyajima specializing in oyster cuisine, this renowned restaurant was featured in the 2018 Michelin Guide Hiroshima. The oysters are carefully cultivated and seasoned simply to bring out the best flavor. The oysters are very resilient and the meat is very large.
In addition, many of our employees have a marine license so that they can go pick up fresh oysters at any time, so you can enjoy the bounty of Hiroshima's sea to the fullest!
list of articles (e.g. in a magazine)
"The signature dish at Oyster Restaurant "is grilled oysters. For 300 yen each, you can enjoy the true taste of carefully selected oysters. We are particular about the way they are grilled, and they are fluffed up so as not to destroy the oyster's fibers. It is recommended to eat them as they are without any dipping sauce, as the taste of the ingredients and the saltiness of the sea are so effective.
Raw oysters can only be served because they are freshly caught. The oysters are peeled after they are ordered and served live, so they are very fresh. The texture is crispy, and they pair perfectly with the lemon produced in Hiroshima Prefecture.
For those who want a hearty meal, the Oyster House set meal is recommended. The set includes two grilled oysters, oyster rice, fried oysters, oyster shop oil marinade, oyster red miso soup, and oyster tsukudani (food boiled in soy sauce), making it a complete oyster meal. The quantity is enough to satisfy even men.
Souvenirs also procured
"You can also buy souvenirs at the oyster shop ". The "Oyster in Oil "is made by frying oysters in oyster sauce until crispy and then marinating them in oil. is very rich and concentrated with the flavor of oysters. It is a perfect accompaniment to wine or sake, so it is recommended as a souvenir for those who love to drink.
Also popular is "Oyster Shop Oyster Dressing ", which is a paste of oysters with a slightly spicy flavor. It can be used not only as a dressing, but also in a wide range of other applications, such as on bread or as a sauce for pasta.
They are also accompanied by a luxury paper bag and are popular as a small souvenir. "Hiroshima G7 Foreign Ministers' Meeting in 2016 "It was also chosen as a souvenir for the wives of foreign ministers of various countries, and everyone recognizes its ability.

Taste that lasts for more than 100 years
"Anagomeshi Ueno "is a long-established restaurant that has been in business since 1901. It is located on the way to the ferry terminal from JR Miyajima-guchi before crossing to Miyajima.
Anago donburi was a popular local dish in the waters around Miyajima, where conger eel had long been abundant. The founder of the company, "Ueno Tarinokichi ", devised a new version of the conger eel rice bowl that would have been served on Miyajima, and the soy sauce flavored rice cooked with conger eel ara became very popular. This soy-sauce flavored rice, covered with a layer of conger eel, was first sold as an ekibento (station bento).

Anago-meshi is an exquisite dish of conger eel rice with rice that is concentrated with the flavor of conger eel and topped with conger eel that has been finished only by grilling.
