This long-established Kanazawa oden restaurant has operated since 1927 in Katamachi, said to be the city's leading entertainment district. It has long been popular with both visitors and locals.

The restaurant always offers more than 30 types of oden ingredients, all reasonably priced in the ¥100–¥399 range. In addition to classics such as daikon radish, there are plenty of ingredients associated with Kanazawa oden, including traditional kurumabu wheel-shaped wheat gluten, pleasantly chewy bai whelks, and firm-textured akamaki fish cakes.

The light yet flavorful secret broth, which thoroughly infuses each ingredient, has reportedly been passed down since the restaurant was founded and is replenished every morning.

There is also an extensive selection of à la carte dishes, including domestic beef tendon carefully simmered in a secret sauce and hot tofu that highlights the ingredient's natural flavor.

The restaurant also has an online store where customers can order Kanazawa oden and à la carte dishes such as simmered beef tendon for delivery.

    Kanazawa Oden Akadama Honten is a long-established oden restaurant that opened in 1927 and remains popular with locals today. The interior has the distinctive atmosphere of a Japanese izakaya. On my first visit, I wasn't quite sure how to order, but luckily, there was a Chinese-speaking staff member who explained everything in detail. If you have trouble deciding, you can order a set for one to three people and let the chef choose the items for you. It's convenient and a safe choice, though slightly more expensive. The overall atmosphere feels very local to Kanazawa. If you want to try oden in Kanazawa, I highly recommend coming here to experience it!

    The oden broth is a clear, salty kelp base. Personally, I found it a bit on the sweet side, which isn’t really my favorite, but the ingredients were decent.
