Restaurant Otsuka

  I went to Restaurant Otsuka in Arashiyama area to have lunch. There used to be Stake Otsuka, which moved to new place near Saga Arashiyama Station.
After it moved there, original restaurant has been closed until recently.
  Then it opened as a new restaurant this November. I happened to find the signboard and visited the restaurant.
They now serve only two menues and only
open for lunch.
My husband and I ordered both menues; beef sushi and mackerel roll sushi.
We share them. They tasted very good.
As the restaurant has reopened very recentlt, it was not so crowded.
The restaurant is very comfortable and the meal is delicious, so I’d like to visit there again.
