A reliable izakaya near the castle serving the full range of Tosa cuisine: katsuo no tataki, grilled river fish, local tofu, and a good selection of Kōchi sake. The room is small and wooden, the menu is handwritten, and the staff are helpful if you point at what neighbouring tables are eating. Expect to pay around ¥2,500–3,500 per person with drinks. No English menu; the tataki set is always available.
Address: near Kōchi-jo-mae tram stop, central Kōchi.
