Mizukawa Monja Tamato-ya: A Culinary Experience in Nagoya

Mizukawa Monja Tamato-ya, a beloved name in Tsukishima, Tokyo, is finally expanding to the Tokai region with its first store in Nagoya's new commercial complex, HAERA. This new establishment is set to open its doors on June 11, 2026, offering an exciting blend of traditional monjayaki and kappo cuisine.

The Essence of Mizukawa Monja Tamato-ya

With a history rooted in one of Tokyo's iconic food districts, Mizukawa Monja Tamato-ya brings its unique twist to the Nagoya culinary scene. The restaurant aims to redefine the monjayaki experience by combining quality ingredients sourced directly from Toyosu Market, ensuring freshness and authenticity in every dish. Their signature dashi, crafted from a unique blend of seafood, chicken bones, and aromatic vegetables, is a testament to their commitment to quality and flavor.

A Refined Atmosphere

Unlike traditional monjayaki eateries, Tamato-ya is designed to provide a refined dining experience. The elegant decor, created by SUPPOS DESIGN OFFICE, includes counter seating, tables, and private rooms, making it suitable for casual meals, gatherings with friends, or special occasions. Guests can savor the traditional flavors of Tsukishima while enjoying kappo-style dishes in an inviting environment.

Culinary Expertise

At the helm of the kitchen is a seasoned chef with years of experience in Michelin-starred establishments. The menu highlights seasonal ingredients through an array of kappo dishes that pair beautifully with their famous monjayaki. Highlights include the “Mentaiko Mochi Monjayaki,” which showcases a whole piece of generous mentaiko, and is best enjoyed with a cheese topping for a delightful flavor combination.

Alongside the monjayaki, diners can explore a diverse selection of seasonal a la carte dishes and exquisite pairings with sake, making it an ideal setting for both newcomers to Japanese cuisine and seasoned food lovers.

Signature Dishes and Seasonal Offerings

In addition to the must-try Mentaiko Mochi Monjayaki, the menu features dishes such as clam steamed in sake and teppanyaki abalone, designed to impress even the most discerning palate. The freshness of the seafood and the culinary artistry come together to create a memorable dining experience, inviting guests to indulge in the richness of Tokyo's food culture.
