Ganso Uwajima Taimeshi Gansui Main Store is located on Okaido in Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture. This taimeshi specialty restaurant has been in business for more than 100 years and serves Uwajima Taimeshi, a local specialty from the Uwajima region in southern Ehime Prefecture.

The signature dish is Uwajima Taimeshi. Fresh red sea bream caught in the Uwajima Sea is sliced into thin strips, mixed with a special sauce and raw egg made exclusively by Ganso Uwajima Taimeshi Gansui Main Store, then poured over rice. One of the restaurant’s specialties is its careful selection of ingredients from Ehime to pair with the sea bream. Standout examples include barley miso from Ii Shoten and Akadama eggs from Maruyama Farm. The menu also includes Taiten-don, a rice bowl topped with sea bream tempura, and Jakokatsu, a deep-fried fish cake made from minced fish paste. A kids’ meal designed to be easy for children to eat is also available.

The restaurant has both table seating and counter seating, with 42 seats in total. It also has private rooms separated by curtains. Located inside the Matsuyama Ropeway Shopping Street, it is also close to the ropeway station for Matsuyama Castle, making it a convenient base for sightseeing.
