Description
A restaurant serving dozeu, loach, in a shallow iron pan over a charcoal burner. It opened in 1801, when the founder came to Edo from what is now Saitama and set up a shop selling loach soup and loach hotpot under the name Echigoya Sukeshichi.
The building is in the Edo merchant style, and the first floor has no windows on the street side so that nobody could look down on a passing lord's procession. Guests sit together at long low tables laid over the tatami.
Good to know
- There is no fixed weekly closing day. Closing dates are announced month by month on the restaurant's own site, so check before you go.
- Seating is shared, at long low tables.
