Gyoza no Umechan

👍👍 5 stars for their gyoza and cha shu! Must try when you are in town. Owner is very enthusiastic, friendly and is generous in his portions. Ramen is a bit different from what I am used to though.

Eat Asai
Chinese restaurant
👍👍 Ordered Yuba Ramen and gyoza and to my surprise the Yuba ramen tasted very good. It is more of a Japanese and Chinese fusion ramen which is quite unconventional. The owner of the restaurant was very friendly and introduced many places of attraction in Nikko to me

Cafe Salon de The OKA
Restaurant
👍👍 You can see a long line of people queuing in the middle of nowhere. That’s the place.
We went for lunch; the waiting time was long, but worth it.
The service is lovely and the Hamburg is dinosaur egg size.

The set menu we chose wasn’t expensive but we’re surprised with the dish variants on the set menu. Very delicious! Also nice service, but...

Hippari-Dako

👍👍 The yakisoba noodles were so good, and you can get them vegetarian with a variety of vegetables. This tiny spot felt like a hidden gem, and for two huge dishes and an appetizer, we got out for like $15. My husband said the chicken meatballs were to die for. The noodles weren’t greasy or heavy, we wo...

It is laborious and very few sake place still practice it but leads to cleaner sake. Because the production is extremely limited, you can dr...
