A Practical Guide: From Private Room Reservation to Your Visit

To ensure you can fully enjoy your Minami-Kusatsu Seafood experience in a private room, here are some tips to streamline the process from reservation to your visit.

Step 1: Flawless Preparation Before Booking

  1. Clarify the purpose and number of guests: Determine the purpose of your visit, such as business entertainment, a party, or a family meal, and get a rough headcount.
  2. Set a desired date, time, and budget: Having a few potential dates in mind will make booking smoother. Decide on a per-person budget as well.
  3. Consider your food preferences: Make a note of any specific requests, such as wanting the Straw-Grilled Bonito shipped directly from Kochi or Omi Beef as the main dish, or ensuring the Assorted Sashimi Platter is included. It's also a good idea to check for allergies or dietary restrictions in advance.

Step 2: Key Points to Communicate When Booking

  1. Be specific about the purpose of your visit: Clearly stating the purpose, like 'business dinner,' 'farewell party,' or 'birthday party,' helps the restaurant suggest the best room and service for you.
  2. Request a specific type of private room: Let us know your preference, such as 'horigotatsu seating,' 'table seating,' or 'a room with a sense of unity for a large group.'
  3. Declare any allergies or dietary restrictions: If you have an important guest with dietary needs or have allergies yourself, be sure to mention them at this time.
  4. Mention any special requests: If you have any special requests, such as planning a surprise, arranging for a cake, or wanting to take a commemorative photo, please consult with us early.

Step 3: Ensuring a Smooth Experience on the Day

  • Arriving about 10 minutes before your reservation time will allow us to seat you without a rush.
  • After you arrive, please don't hesitate to speak to our staff if you have any questions or additional requests.
  • Throughout your meal, our staff is always ready to assist with drink refills, checking on your food, and anything else you may need.
