Welcome to Uomaru Fresh Fish & Robatayaki Hikone

7-21 Asahimachi, Hikone, Shiga 522-0073, Japan

General Info

Located at 7-21 Asahimachi in Hikone, Uomaru Fresh Fish & Robatayaki Hikone delivers the kind of izakaya experience that feels both lively and deeply rooted in Japanese food culture. From the moment you step inside, the atmosphere leans casual yet energetic, making it an easy choice for dinner after work or a relaxed late-night meal. The menu is built around fresh seafood and robatayaki grilling, and the focus on quality shows in every dish that hits the table.

One of the most talked-about items here is the 刺身盛り合わせ, a beautifully arranged sashimi assortment that highlights fresh cuts with clean flavors. Whether ordered solo or as 刺身2人前 for sharing, the texture and balance make it a standout on the menu. Pairing sashimi with 生ビールと食べ放題のキュウリ creates a classic izakaya rhythm-cold draft beer, crisp cucumber refills, and easy conversation flowing across the table.

Hot dishes bring even more comfort. The 魚丸だし巻き玉子 is soft, gently sweet, and packed with savory dashi flavor, making it a reliable favorite for both first-time visitors and regulars. Another solid option is the 鴨ロース, which delivers a rich, meaty bite without feeling heavy, fitting perfectly into a shared dining style. Everything arrives with a sense of timing that keeps the table engaged rather than rushed.

Service plays a quiet but important role in the overall experience. Table service is attentive without hovering, and the wheelchair-accessible entrance ensures the space is welcoming to everyone. Dinner service runs late, which adds flexibility for travelers and locals alike. Payment is smooth and modern too, with Rakuten Pay available alongside standard options.

As an izakaya restaurant, this location works well for groups, casual dates, or solo diners looking to unwind. Reviews often highlight the balance between fresh seafood, warm grilled dishes, and a friendly environment. With its central location in Hikone, thoughtful services, and consistently satisfying food, this spot feels less like a one-time visit and more like a place you naturally return to when good food and an easygoing vibe are exactly what you want.

- Amy Shafer -

“ Fun local place with great food off the charcoal grill. Some veggie items available but focused on fish as the name suggests. Prices are reasonable, especially for sake. Not much English spoken but that makes for a more authentic experience. Only downside: smoking is allowed. 500¥ table charge, which includes an appetizer. ”

- Gregor H -

“ Went here twice. They charge you for sitting at a table which is fine. You get cucumbers and miso. We were just so annoyed we didn't get them again the second night we dined but we're still charged. But the food was simply outstanding. You order by your phone which makes it easy for tourists. ”

- Casey W -

“ Good and service excellent! Great experience overall. Head honcho was very welcoming and had some Sake with us ”
