Our signature menu item is juicy gyoza, carefully handmade every day, and a major feature is that we offer specialized gyoza for each type of alcoholic beverage, such as beer, lemon sour, and highball. These meticulously crafted gyoza maximize compatibility with their respective drinks, offering customers new taste discoveries and delight. We also boast a rich selection of popular dishes, including hearty half-fried chicken and the addictive Moyashida (Moya Jiro), which offers free refills, ensuring new discoveries and satisfaction with every visit.

The vibrant and warm atmosphere created by our bright and positive staff is sure to make for an unforgettable and enjoyable time for our guests. However, while enjoying delicious food and drinks, some customers may be concerned about food allergies. As opportunities for dining out expand, we deeply regret that allergies can become a barrier.

Specific Steps to Maximize Peace of Mind at Kamura Sakae

To ensure our customers can enjoy Kamura Sakae's dishes with peace of mind, we kindly ask for a few specific steps, from before your visit until your arrival. Through these steps, we aim to reduce any concerns about allergies and allow you to fully savor your mealtime.

Preparation and Contact Points Before Your Visit

  • We strongly recommend consulting us by phone (052-238-0850) before your visit. Prior information sharing is especially crucial if your allergies are diverse or if you have severe allergies. During business hours, due to crowding, we may not be able to dedicate sufficient time to your consultation, so we would appreciate it if you could call right after opening or during relatively less busy times.

  • When calling, please clearly state: Planned date and time of visit, Number of guests, Name (optional) and number of guests with allergies, and Specific allergens (e.g., egg, dairy, wheat,そば (soba), peanut, shrimp, crab, etc.). Furthermore, if you have more specific requests beyond just avoiding allergens, such as Is it acceptable to use the same cooking utensils or oil? or Do you need alternative suggestions if allergen removal is difficult?, please do not hesitate to let us know.

  • As we prepare our gyoza by hand every day, we can, if consulted in advance, provide detailed information about the ingredients to the extent possible. However, we cannot guarantee the complete removal of allergens from all menu items. There is a possibility of trace allergens being present in seasonings or due to the cooking process, so we ask for your understanding in this regard.

Smart Communication Techniques Upon Your Visit

  • After you are seated upon arrival, please inform the staff again about your allergies. Even if you have consulted us by phone in advance, verbally confirming it ensures more reliable information sharing. Based on the information provided by the customer, our staff will re-confirm the day's menu and cooking methods and consider appropriate accommodations to the extent possible.

  • Please do not hesitate to ask our staff if you have any concerns about our specialty items, such as the specialized gyoza for each type of alcoholic beverage (for beer/lemon sour/highball), half-fried chicken, or the popular all-you-can-refill Moyashida (Moya Jiro). Our bright and positive staff will carefully answer your questions and assist you in ordering with confidence.

  • In the event you have multiple allergies or if your allergy symptoms are severe, please inform the staff in detail when placing your order. We prioritize our customers' safety and are committed to careful handling. Even if you are enjoying a lively time for a second party in Sakae or daytime drinking in Sakae, please feel free to speak to our staff.

Kamura Sakae's Commitment to Food and Allergy Consideration Perspective

At Kamura Sakae, we are meticulous in every detail, from ingredient selection to cooking methods, to provide dishes that truly delight our customers. We believe this dedication also extends to our consideration for guests with allergies.

Handmade Daily! The Secret of Our Signature Gyoza

  • Our signature gyoza are meticulously handmade one by one every day. This daily handmade process not only pursues deliciousness but also offers the advantage of making it easier for our staff to understand the ingredients used. When consulted about allergies, we strive to provide information about the specific ingredients used in our gyoza to the extent possible. For example, while we have beer-specific gyoza, lemon sour-specific gyoza, and highball-specific gyoza, each with unique seasonings and fillings, please feel free to ask if you wish to know about the main ingredients of the basic wrappers and fillings.

  • We also offer unique dishes such as Bakujiru Gyoza (Explosive Juice Gyoza) and Oyoga-se Mayonnaise Takoyaki (Swimming Mayonnaise Takoyaki); if you have any concerns about these, our staff will confirm the details.

Popular Side Dishes and Our Considerations

  • The Half-Fried Chicken is a popular menu item that is juicy and satisfying, receiving rave reviews from many customers who say, It was even better than expected! As it is a fried dish, some may be concerned about the oil used. We use general cooking oil, but for guests with allergies, we will provide as much information as possible regarding the cooking method and seasonings used. Our Renkon no Jakkan (slightly pickled lotus root) is also highly praised by customers as the best! If you have any questions about the ingredients or seasonings used, please do not hesitate to ask our staff.

  • The all-you-can-refill Moyashida (Moya Jiro) is also addictively delicious, receiving happy comments from customers like, The delicious all-you-can-refill moyashida is highly rated.
