Selected entries from the current guide for Kuwana.
Kuwana, Japan
Kuwana’s hot-pot tradition reads differently from Tokyo’s counter culture: provenance, beef handling, and room format matter more than novelty. Kaki Yasu Ryoutei honten belongs to that older ryotei register, with sukiyaki, shabu shabu, and teppanyaki under one roof, plus selection for Tabelog 100 - Hot Pot - 2024.
Kuwana, Japan
Ramen Torikatsu puts Kuwana’s noodle culture in a precise, seafood-led register: niboshi and dashi define the appeal more than spectacle. Its selection for Tabelog Ramen WEST “Tabelog 100” in 2023, 2024, and 2025 places it among western Japan’s closely watched ramen addresses, while the compact format keeps the experience firmly in everyday local territory.
Kuwana, Japan
Yakiniku Sukkyanen gives Kuwana a serious charcoal-grill address without the ceremony of a luxury beef room. Its Tabelog 100 Yakiniku WEST 2025 selection, tatami-room format, Kuroge Wagyu focus, tripe category, and sake-shochu drinks list place it in a regional style of yakiniku where sourcing and heat matter more than performance.
Kuwana, Japan
ヴィアッジーニ sits on a quiet address in Kuwana, Mie Prefecture, where the Kiso, Ibi, and Nagara rivers deliver some of Japan's most prized freshwater produce to the city's kitchens. The restaurant's name gestures toward Italian roots, placing it in the smaller tier of European-inflected dining that has taken hold in provincial Japanese cities over the past decade. For the Kuwana dining scene, it represents a distinctive presence worth investigating.
Kuwana, Japan
センプレ sits in Kuwana, a Mie Prefecture city where the Kiso and Nagara rivers meet the Ise Bay, a location that has shaped local food culture for centuries. The restaurant occupies an address in Nagashimacho Nishikawa, a district better known for its hot spring resorts than its dining rooms, placing it in a quieter register than Mie's more trafficked culinary stops near Ise Jingu.

Kuwana, Japan
In riverside Kuwana City, on the outskirts of greater Nagoya, next to the Shichiri no Watashi ferry crossing and its famous torii gate, is the historic Maruyo Hotel, built and operated by the fifth generation of a family whose lumber company once stood on this spot. Scarcely a hotel at all, the house is fully serviced, but is booked as a unit, sleeping up to four guests. Needless to say, it’s a labor of love, and displays a concern for artisanal craft that’s uncommon even among Japanese ryokan. With a mere two bedrooms it’s clearly not meant to dominate the local hospitality scene, but to provide an experience without equal elsewhere. European and Japanese influences harmoniously coexist, and the decoration includes a number of noteworthy artworks and antiques. Meanwhile the bedrooms are complemented by a lounge, a library, and a dining room, as well as a courtyard. Breakfast is served by Maruyo’s staff, and dinner is available via room service from one of a number of highly regarded local restaurants. It’s not for high-maintenance luxury-hotel guests, but the independent-minded traveler will find nothing else like it.
