Fukuya
Using local ingredients like handpicked mushrooms and seafood from nearby Toyama Bay, this former Michelin-starred restaurant serves kaiseki full of the region's terroir.
Restaurant Details
Conveniently located just two blocks from either Aramachi Station or Nakamachi Station on the Toyama City Tram Line and Chihou Railway Loop Line, this former Michelin-starred kaiseki restaurant is one of Toyama’s finest.
In spite of its unassuming exterior, the food is anything but. Years of training under master chefs all over the country has helped Fukuya's chef-owner Oya Joji develop his original style of cooking, in addition to time spent working in his family's soba restaurant.
Almost all of the ingredients used at the restaurant are sourced from Toyama itself, including the fresh seafood caught in Toyama Bay and wild mushrooms personally handpicked by Chef Oya. He also enjoys special, longstanding relationships with local suppliers, relying on hunters to bring him freshly hunted wild game, and organic vegetables from the fertile foothills of the Japanese Alps.
Chef Oya puts these ingredients together in a 10-course omakase menu spanning appetizer to dessert, paired with over a dozen varieties of local Toyama sake. His food aims to put the mind at ease and provide energy to face the next day, avoiding heavy seasonings to let the terroir of Toyama shine through in top-quality ingredients.
