  Super fun place to go as a family, the fish-what-you-eat gives another entertaining dimension to the meal and it is difficult to get a fresher fish dish ! The main remains used for sashimi was still slightly spasming when it arrived. The staff is warm and patient.It was an overall nice experience.

  if you don't have any experience with fishing and you want to try just for fun maybe you should try this place.. the place looks like you are eating inside a market place that really gets you on the vibe.. the servers are kind and helpful.. but the down side is if coming in by car there would be a problem..

  Novel concept to catch your own fish before the kitchen prepares it based on your preference. However, that they have no English menu makes this place a challenging place to dine at for those who do not have at least a decent grasp of Japanese.

  This place is so awesome. You can catch your own fish and then have it immediately prepared in different ways. Thee flounder was amazing, also very easy to catch you just drag hook them, don't really have to try. Had the flounder steamed in a soy base, also tempura and sashimi. All 3 where amazing.

  Zauo is a live fishing restaurant. I absolutely loved my experience here being a keen fisherman myself. It is advisable to make a reservation ahead of time as this place is very popular. If you dont know any Japanese but are staying in a hotel, ask your front desk to make your reservation for you, as the staff at the restaurant speak very little English although they are incredibly welcoming and hospitable! There is limited seating in the "boat" in the middle of the fishing pond, I would recommend booking at least 3 days in advance and ask the person making the reservation to ask for it specifically. If you are a smoker, half of the restaurant is smoking friendly so you are able to request seating here if desired. Once you arrive you will be shown to your table and given a menu. There is a very large tasting menu available, there is also a children's menu. If you're not really into eating fish, as one of our party wasnt, I recommend the chicken wings and fries, both are sensational. Once you have ordered drinks you will be shown where to fish. Basically any of the fish in the containers closest to the downstairs tables have a set price clearly shown. You use a small rod with several hooks for these and they are simple to catch. If you want to try your luck at the more tricky fish, the low end ones are at the front right, nearest to the kitchen and the more expensive ones are at the back of the restaurant nearest the bridge. (Front 2900 yen Back 4900 yen) the fishing rod rent is 100 yen each but all bait is free. You bait your hook and drop it into the water and wait for your fish to bite, then use a small hand net. Once in the net, alert a server and they will come over and ask how you want your fish prepared. It is best to point to it on the menu if you dont speak Japanese. You can have your fish one way or two separate ways. I chose to have mine half sashimi and half deep fried. The other two options are tempura and boiled. It is delivered to your table head and tail on for decorative purposes so be prepared to look it in the eye! We had an absolutely fantastic experience in this restaurant and will definitely go again. Do recommend!
