Located just a 2-minute walk from Tsukiji Station, Nodoguro-no-Nakamata Tsukiji is a seafood and charcoal-grill restaurant specializing in nodoguro (blackthroat seaperch), operated by the Nakamata Shuzo Group. Renowned for dishes prepared with fresh, port-direct fish-especially nodoguro-it offers a wide range of seasonal flavors brought to life through expert charcoal grilling.
Its signature dish features an extra-large nodoguro weighing over 500 grams, grilled using the traditional charcoal “genshiyaki” method. By grilling the fish upright, excess moisture is drawn out, concentrating the umami and producing incredibly plump, thick, and tender flesh. The menu also includes charcoal-grilled crab, squid, Satsuma Kuroge Wagyu beef, and Hinata-dori chicken. Assorted sashimi plates made with top-grade seafood-such as bluefin tuna and botan shrimp delivered straight from Tsukiji-are also highly popular. Their house-made Kyushu sweet soy sauce enhances the natural sweetness of the fish.
The interior features a warm, sake-brewery-inspired wa-modern design, with 7 private rooms and a total of 85 seats-ideal for business dinners and gatherings. The restaurant also offers an extensive selection of shochu from historic distilleries, including those in Ibusuki, Kagoshima. With Tsukiji Market, Kabuki-za Theatre, and Ginza all within walking distance, it’s a perfect spot for both dining and strolling afterward.
