🍜 Seafood Restaurant Zhongxin

The seafood restaurant Chūshin is located in a coastal area near local fishing industry operators, just a short distance from Oarai Port in Ibaraki Prefecture. This seafood-focused restaurant was opened by the owner, who has been running a fresh fish shop called "Uo Chū" for many years, ensuring that the freshness of the ingredients used in the dishes is guaranteed. Most of the ingredients are sourced from Nakaminato Fishing Port in Oarai, always stocked with high-quality, fresh seafood. More than half of the customers who visit the restaurant order sushi. The sushi here is paired with various toppings and seasoned appropriately, allowing you to enjoy it without soy sauce, which is a unique feature. The offerings change with the seasons, and the moment the dishes are served, you can tell the difference in ingredient freshness just by their colors. The affordable price starting at 1,320 yen for eight pieces is also a pleasant surprise. The seafood rice bowl, priced at 1,540 yen, is quite popular for lunch and features ingredients that change based on availability. From marinated bonito and tuna rice bowls to a mixed rice bowl that allows you to enjoy two popular toppings, there are many enticing dishes that make you eager to try them. There is also a limited autumn and winter offering of anglerfish hot pot starting at 3,300 yen. The interior of the restaurant is designed in a stylish Japanese style. In the elegantly distinctive atmosphere of the area, you can fully enjoy the delicious taste of freshly caught seafood.

Long-established fresh fish shops can provide seafood of exceptional freshness. The prices of nigiri sushi, paired with various ingredients and appropriate seasonings, are very affordable. Seasonal seafood bowls, filled with delicious ingredients, are also very popular.
