Kappo Nakanoya

We carefully cook seasonal ingredients. Enjoy our kaiseki (traditional Japanese cuisine) course and sophisticated hospitality flexible according to the occasion. 

We are located in Tochigi that is known as [the town with warehouses] where many warehouses and merchant houses built during Edo and Meiji periods sta read morend in a row. Our kappo (traditional Japanese cuisine) restaurant, with a history of 110 years, has been loved by many writers and artists. At the entrance after passing a paved road with an atmosphere, our female manager welcomes you with a warm smile and leads to a guest room (all of them are private Japanese rooms). For both lunch and dinner, we serve beautifully-decorated kaiseki courses that receive a high reputation using kanpyo (dried gourd shavings), a specialty of Tochigi, and seasonal vegetables full of nutrition. We have been loved in the area over generations, not only for having a meal including a casual lunch, but for special occasions to receive our careful hospitality, such as yuino (a familial ceremony before marriage), for celebrating the festival for children of three, five, or seven years old, a memorial service for the memory of the deceased, and for playing games with a geisha.  learn more from chef
