Hozumitei
郷土料理 大衆割烹 ほづみ亭
A signature restaurant for Uwajima tai-meshi, listed among the Tabelog Izakaya Top 100; crowded at both lunch and dinner.
A Japanese-style detached house beside Hozumi Bridge, about a 5-minute walk from JR Uwajima Station. It was once selected as one of the Tabelog Izakaya WEST Top 100 restaurants and is considered the flagship for Uwajima's tai-meshi (sea bream rice). Tai-meshi costs about 1,680 yen, and the gozen set with local side dishes about 2,500–2,800 yen. The menu also includes Uwajima satsuma-jiru, house-made mullet roe bottarga and other specialties. In the evening, an 11-course set is available for 5,500 yen. Both lunch and dinner are crowded, and there is often a queue before opening, so arriving early is advised. There are 25 free parking spaces.
Opening hours
11:00 AM–2:00 PM (last order 1:20 PM), 5:00–10:10 PM (last order 9:20 PM); closed Sundays
