Gyoza Senmonten Akaman Motomachi Branch

Gyoza Senmonten Akaman – Motomachi Branch is a renowned gyoza specialty restaurant with over 60 years of history, often cited among Kobe's finest. Located conveniently near Motomachi Station, look for the distinctive red awning. The cozy interior features counter seating and three small tables, frequently drawing lines even before opening. There’s another branch located in Sannomiya.

The signature gyoza, served seven pieces per order, are crispy on the outside with a juicy yet refreshingly light filling, offering a deceptively simple but profound taste. Their bite-sized portions make it easy to enjoy multiple servings. Customize your dipping sauce by mixing homemade miso sauce, chili oil, and vinegar available at each table.
The concise menu features only gyoza, bottled beer, and non-alcoholic beer. Customers may order gyoza only once per visit, with a minimum order of two servings per person required on weekends and holidays.

The shop closes as soon as gyoza sell out, so advance reservations by phone or in person are strongly recommended. Both freshly cooked and uncooked gyoza are available for takeout.
