Located a few minutes' walk from Nagahama Station, Torikita Main Restaurant has been welcoming diners since 1931, drawing queues of guests seeking its traditional diner atmosphere and celebrated oyakodon. The signature chicken-and-egg bowl features soft-cooked eggs seasoned with richly flavorful dashi and modest sweetness, finished with a fresh raw egg yolk that creates an increasingly rich and luscious texture as it is broken. Guests appreciate the attentive touch of staff asking whether they eat raw egg upon ordering, offering to fully cook the egg upon request. Many diners also order the kashiwa nabe, featuring generous pieces of chicken simmered with egg in a clear chicken dashi broth, while regular patrons are known to favor the chicken dashi udon. The cozy 18-seat interior is decorated with stickers from television appearances, offering non-smoking seating and warm, pleasant hospitality that keeps tea cups filled even during peak hours. When crowded, customers line up across the street in front of the bank, making this a venue you will want to revisit both for sightseeing lunches in Nagahama and casual solo meals.
