Grill Otsuka

A retro yoshoku diner in Kanazawa credited with perfecting Hanton Rice, a local comfort food that layers ketchup-seasoned fried rice with a creamy folded omelet, fried fish or shrimp, and tartar sauce. The dish has become regional soul food, and this is where it was developed. The worn counter seats, handwritten menu boards, and unchanged recipe give it the feel of an authentic neighborhood institution. Beyond Hanton Rice, classic yoshoku dishes like omurice and napolitan spaghetti fill the menu. The generous portions and wallet-friendly prices make it a reliable lunch stop.
