「Shinsen Wasabi」 serves seasonal dishes such as local sake, a la carte dishes, and sushi, with fish as the main attraction.
The menu is full of seasonal delicacies such as the day’s catch of plump albacore, throat blackfish, rock oysters, Kanou crab, and wild yellowtail.
Sometimes we receive rare fish such as Utsubo, which you can’t find anywhere else….
They say it is full of collagen, has no peculiar taste, and is very tasty.
In addition to seafood, Noto beef sirloin steak is reputed to be excellent.
The restaurant has a reputation for delicious food no matter which dish you choose, and there are also many rare local sakes that go well with the cuisine.
Here are some reviews of the restaurant.

the best place to enjoy Ishikawa’s cuisine!
It takes a little time for the food to come out
But the deliciousness overcomes that.
The Noto beef sirloin exceeded the K-point of beef in my life.
Quintessential Kaga clan, even on a night of 20awa.

Satisfaction ◎︎This was my first visit with my boss. I was of course impressed and in a good mood by my boss who was with us. At that time, I sincerely felt thankful to Wasabi. I would like to thank you again when I have a chance to come here.
All the food was delicious! It is easily accessible within a 10 minute walk from Kanazawa station! Sushi, Kaga vegetable tempura, deep-fried whale with tatsuta, gyoja garlic, etc. are all delicious. I saw the soy sauce and salt seasoning for the first time, and it was very flavorful and perfect for the tempura. The customer service was also very pleasant! Highly recommended!
