Experience the essence of Japanese culinary art with Misato's exquisite tonkatsu and unique hamburger steaks in the heart of Nagahama.

Restaurant Details

Nestled in the picturesque township of Nagahama, Shiga Prefecture, Misato offers a delightful culinary journey that beautifully marries traditional Japanese flavors with contemporary techniques. Known primarily for its tonkatsu – a traditional pork cutlet dish cherished widely in Japanese cuisine – Misato breathes new life into the concept, delighting diners with a variety of spins on this beloved classic, as well as their unique take on hamburger steaks.


Among the highlights, guests can savor the Yamagata Pork Loin Cutlet, renowned for its tender, flavorful bite and cooked to perfection. Complementing this dish is an array of tempura-fried shrimp and vegetables, adding layers of texture and taste that satisfy both the traditionalist and the modern epicurean.


Ideally located near the iconic Nagahama Castle, Misato is more than just a dining venue—it’s an experience. The restaurant's interior cleverly combines the elegance of Japanese tradition with the cozy warmth of a modern bistro, making it an ideal destination for intimate dates or family gatherings.


Patrons are consistently impressed by the hospitality unique to Japanese culture. At Misato, attentive service is the norm, and delightful gestures, such as complimentary refills of steamed rice and miso soup, ensure guests feel truly cared for. This thoughtful service, coupled with the restaurant's vibrant ambiance, draws a lively crowd, especially during meal times.


Whether ending a leisurely day exploring the natural beauty of Lake Biwa or celebrating a special occasion, Misato promises an authentic and satisfying taste of Japan's rich culinary traditions. It’s a must-visit for those yearning for flavors that pay homage to the past while embracing the future.
