01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
When you want to take your time over drinks and thoughtfully prepared dishes that bring out the best in their ingredients, Jizake (漁火) in Saga Nakadoricho is a calm and welcoming choice. Among the proprietor's careful creations, the house-smoked items stand out with a rich aroma that pairs naturally with alcohol.
The menu features assorted sashimi, mushroom tempura, and deep-fried oysters, alongside small plates like a crisp whitebait and tomato salad. The crisp cheese, browned patiently over time, makes a fine match for a highball. Guests order across a broad repertoire, from izakaya staples such as karaage fried chicken, agedashi tofu, skewers, gyoza-stuffed chicken wings, and tamagoyaki to braised pork belly served with a savory rice porridge sauce.
Inside, the restaurant offers counter seating alongside booth tables, accompanied by the warm hospitality of the parent and child who run the business together. Closed on Tuesdays, Jizake is open on other days from 17:00 to 23:00, serving dinner with beer, wine, and cocktails.
