Oden & Wine Kamoshiya

This stylish Japanese bar (izakaya) offers Nagoya’s specialty—Miso Oden—in a chic and inviting atmosphere. Situated along Hisaya-odori, one of Nagoya’s main streets, Kamoshiya’s exterior evokes the nostalgic charm of a traditional Kyoto townhouse, creating a striking impression among its surroundings.

Founded by a sommelier with extensive experience in French cuisine and wine bars, the restaurant highlights the unique pairing of miso oden with carefully selected wines. Nagoya and the broader Tokai region have a rich history of producing fermented seasonings like miso, soy sauce, mirin, and vinegar. Reflecting this tradition, the menu prominently features local culinary delights, with their signature miso oden crafted using premium red miso from Nagoya’s longstanding miso brewer, Nakamo, slowly simmered in a rich broth made from freshwater clams and beef. These dishes pair superbly with wines personally chosen by the sommelier-owner.

Additional enticing offerings include dishes like grilled miso, garlic-infused ajillo, and tender beef tongue stew—perfect companions to complement the extensive wine selection.
