Trattoria Nakamura-Ya is a Tokyo Style Italian Restaurant and that means if you are in Japan this is what you’d find if you are looking for an Italian Restaurant. This restaurant is small with limited seating inside. They are small but we did notice that they serve wine.

Awards grace the wall.

My husband started out with what they call spring rolls.

He thought the spring rolls seemed like they were tempura dipped. He thought they were cheese sticks with a little bit of Italian lunch meat in them.

I went with the lunch special –

I got a platter of Chicken Tatsuta-age, Chicken Katsu, Grilled Mackerel, Salad, and my choice of rice or bread and I went with rice.

I prefer the katsu (fried sliced chicken on ends of plate) over the tatsuta-age because it’s much more tender (dark meat) and is much more flavorful. The mackerel seems fresh but it is a strong tasting fish. The Salad seems very fresh but is kinda plain. The rice also tastes freshly made.

My husband tried the Pork Loin Tonkatsu made from that special Canadian refined red meat pork called Mugifusi. It also came with freshly prepared mixed vegetables.

So far what we tried was reasonably good.

I hope to return to try a pasta dish and fresh flown in fish from Japan.

Worth a Try!
