Authentic Japanese Tempura in Kokura｜A Taste of Seasonal Japan
When visiting Kokura, Kitakyushu, experiencing authentic Japanese cuisine is one of the best ways to discover the culture and flavors of Japan.
At AMANO, we specialize in carefully prepared Japanese tempura made with seasonal ingredients.
Our tempura is cooked at the ideal temperature for each ingredient, with a light and delicate batter that allows the natural flavors of the ingredients to shine.
We are especially proud of our seafood from the Buzen Sea, an area known for its rich marine environment. Seasonal seafood is carefully selected and prepared to bring out its best flavor.
One of the characteristics of our tempura is its light finish. We want our guests to enjoy every piece comfortably, from the first bite to the last.

Our menu is not limited to tempura.
Depending on the season and ingredients available that day, guests can enjoy fresh sashimi, sushi, seasonal Japanese dishes and other specialties.

Enjoy Tempura with Japanese Sake
Tempura is also wonderful when paired with Japanese sake.
