Central Mie

  • Tsu : Hyoka Gyouza - Chinese
    Delicious and filling on the Kintetsu side of Tsu station. Less than 5 mins walk out of the exit, just walk straight up the road towards the traffic lights and it will be on the opposite side of the street (red with lots of flags fluttering outside!) Set 'teishoku' meals are around 900yen but ordering by the plate is also reccomended as the menu is very large. The gyoza here are especially well known and delicious. Lunch is a bargain but can be busy.
  • Tsu : My Kitchen - Western food
    Lunch is the best time to come here as for 850yen you get a main dish, a little salad, a small soup and a drink. The chef who runs the restaurant rotates the topping on her om-rice (omelette and rice) each day. Thursday is green curry on top! Wednesday is Tabasco! etc. etc. Night is also delicious and features a wide range of pasta and French/Italian/Spanish inspired dishes but can get a little pricey at around 2500-3000 per person. A small place perfect for a date or a meal with the girls. Can get busy at lunchtime depending on the day! Exit Tsu station on the JR side and turn right on the corner with the estate agent and bookstore (which has lots of adult magazines right outside!) and keep going straight, passing Pachinko and a music store. Cross the street where the railway crossing is and it will be on your left next to the 'members club Azabu'.
  • Tsu : Shokudouen - Yakiniku
    Excellent lunch menu for a reasonable price (the sets are under 1,000 yen for lunch time yakiniku-ing!) and in the evening has a good selection of Matsusaka beef yakiniku. Can get pricey in the evening, around 3,000 yen per person would be the average if you are careful about what you are ordering. Also has a selection of Korean food like bibinbap etc. on the menu.
  • Tsu : Kameyan - Western food, mixed
    Mixed menu but sells things like salad, pizza and pasta etc. Delicious! Popular with students from Mie University. To get here is a three minute walk approx. from Edobashi Station. A good place if there is a bunch of you hanging out in the evening! Nice, studenty vibe.

Eastern Mie

  • Ise : Biyagura (麦酒蔵) - Craft beer and food
    Official brewpub/restaurant owned by Ise Kadoya Brewery to serve their locally-brewed craft beer.
  • Ise : Misuzu (美鈴) - Gyoza (map)
    Tiny restaurant that is famous for gyoza, also has kara'age (with bones). The gyoza are handmade and superb. This place doesn't have a menu since it offers so few items, so just walk in and ask for some gyoza.
    Menu: No menu!
    Prices: One plate (8 gyoza) is ¥450
    Hours: 17:00 - 24:00; closed Mondays

  • Ise : Tontei (とん亭) - Chinese (map for both locations)
    Japanized Chinese food (ramen, gyoza, chahan, kara'age) with a large menu. The kara'age at this place is particularly good. Leaner meat mixed with good spices. They also offer their special "tonteki set" with diced pork in a special sauce, rice, vegetables, and miso. There are two locations (both in Ise), one near Miyamachi, the other near the Ise post office.
    Menu: No English; Pictures but only for the meal sets
    Prices: Varying, but most meal sets start around ¥800
