鳗鱼饭和蟹肉鱼籽饭都是好吃的,类似煲仔饭,主打精致。另外,大门真的不太好找,来来回回走了两次才找到。

Had a lovely date night at Donabe and was genuinely impressed. The miso black cod was outstanding — our server mentioned the sauce is made with a blend of three types of mushrooms, and it really added depth to the flavor. The warm lighting and cozy atmosphere make it perfect for a quiet dinner with friends or a romantic evening. Will definitely be back!
