Heaps of different oyster dishes and a real taste of Hiroshima at this full-on oyster bar.
Over in Hiroshima Station’s West Exit area (nicknamed “Ekinishi”) sits Oyster & Smoked BAR SANGO, an authentic oyster bar serving up local Hiroshima oysters and bites from across Japan in raw, grilled, fried, steamed plates and more.
The shop classic here is Assorted Raw Oysters (4 varieties), served with Hiroshima-grown lemon to enhance the oysters’ natural creamy richness and briny flavor. Other specialties include house-made smoked dishes and rare cuts of Wagyu beef (kōne). Other crowd favorites include the Smoked Platter, Smoked Potato Salad, and the indulgent Kōne Roll with Sea Urchin and Salmon Roe are especially popular. For a true Hiroshima experience, you can also opt for a set menu with all-you-can-drink, featuring oysters alongside other Hiroshima delicacies.
The first floor features counter seating, ideal for solo drinks or casual dates, while the second floor offers table seating and private rental options. Conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from JR Hiroshima Station, it’s easy to drop by before or after sightseeing. The group also operates other venues in Hiroshima, including the Italian bar Lemon & Oyster Garden SANGO and the charcoal-grilled skewer izakaya Sumibako, giving you plenty of options depending on your mood and occasion.
