Located in Asakusa, Dojo-Iidaya is a celebrated restaurant where you can savor traditional freshwater fish cuisine in spacious tatami seating (zashiki) brimming with Edo-period atmosphere. The signature dojo hot pot is cooked in a shallow iron pan with sweet-savory broth, allowing you to fully appreciate the whole loach's rich bone-in flavor and distinctive texture. For first-timers, the tender, boneless honenuki hot pot and the gently egg-bound Yanagawa hot pot with burdock root are also popular. Heaping chopped scallions from the table onto the pan and simmering it down to your preferred taste with shichimi or sansho pepper is part of the fun. Friendly waitstaff are on hand to guide you on heat control and when it is ready to eat, so anyone can comfortably gather around the pot. Step out of your shoes into the tatami rooms or horigotatsu seating to enjoy a stylish meal during your Asakusa sightseeing or a lively banquet with friends.
