About Katsuo Shokudo

At Katsuo Shokudo, the specialty is katsuo-bushi gohan, or bonito flake rice, which features freshly shaved flakes. Because the shop only has counter seating, you can watch the staff prepare your meal and enjoy a casual, lively atmosphere. Reservations are recommended, especially since they sometimes sell out of their popular dishes. As Elanne Boake Jeong notes, this is a foreigner-friendly spot, which makes it ideal for a quick bite of local flavor.

Know before you go

  • Arrive early, especially for lunch, as seating is limited and it's a popular spot.
  • Focus on the signature katsuobushi rice bowl for the authentic experience.
