Exciting New Addition: Tsukishima Monja Tamato-Ya Opens in Fukuoka Tenjin

A New Culinary Experience in Fukuoka

Fukuoka's vibrant dining scene is set to get even more exciting with the grand opening of Tsukishima Monja Tamato-Ya on April 24, 2025. Located on the B1 floor of ONE FUKUOKA BLDG. in the bustling Tenjin area, this marks the first venture of this popular Tokyo-based restaurant outside the Kanto region, making it a monumental event for local food enthusiasts.

Originating from the renowned Tsukishima district of Tokyo, famous for its monjayaki—a savory Japanese pancake dish—Tsukishima Monja Tamato-Ya has drawn long queues at its flagship location near Tokyo Station since its inception. Customers will be able to experience the authentic flavors of Tsukishima right in the heart of Fukuoka.

The Best of Traditional Monjayaki

At the Tsukishima Monja Tamato-Ya, diners can enjoy the restaurant's signature dishes, including the Mentaiko Mochi Monja. This dish boasts a generous piece of mentaiko—spicy cod roe—that is delivered fresh from the Toyosu market, ensuring immense flavor and significant impact. Cooked to perfect crispness on teppan, the freshly grilled ingredients highlight the rich umami of the homemade dashi, crafted from a blend of seafood, chicken broth, and aromatic vegetables.

This exciting venue promises a welcoming atmosphere where expert chefs prepare your meal right before your eyes, making it a delightful experience for both newcomers and seasoned monjayaki fans. The hands-on experience of watching skilled professionals at work adds an extra layer of enjoyment.

A Variety of Dishes Awaits

In addition to the Mentaiko Mochi Monja, the menu features seasonal seafood delicacies sourced daily by the restaurant's parent company, a dedicated seafood wholesaler. Guests can also savor grilled fish dishes and an array of teppanyaki options, including highlights like Ikasushi (grilled squid with liver soy sauce) and Maruhatsu (grilled heart)—each dish prepared with the utmost care and precision.

For those looking for lighter fare, the Chawan Monja—a half-sized monjayaki—delivers the unique experience of enjoying two flavors at once, with the added intrigue of blending them to create a delightful third taste. This dish is particularly popular as a light snack, perfect for wrapping up a meal or enjoying as part of a casual gathering.
