Once you cross the Fukuhaku Deai Bridge, which connects Hakata and Nakasu, you will arrive at Nishi-Nakasu.
We were founded as a restaurant specializing in mentaiko dishes on this street, which was once lined with bustling traditional Japanese restaurants.

Fukuoka has long had many stores selling mentaiko as Original Goods, but there were no specialty stores offering it as a meal.
We have been serving unparalleled mentaiko dishes using carefully selected ingredients and cooking methods that bring out the best in the mentaiko's flavor, such as raw, grilled, simmered, and broiled.

Our carefully crafted mentaiko is wrapped by hand, one by one, in kelp that has been soaked in seasoning sauce at the perfect time to enhance its flavor.
This is an exquisite delicacy that allows you to fully feel each and every grain of mentaiko and has a pleasant texture.

Our shop name, "Mentai-ju®," is our signature product, created after many years of research, in order to allow our customers to enjoy mentaiko to their heart's content.
Upon opening the specially made Arita ware bento box adorned with silver leaf, you will find a whole piece of carefully marinated cod roe wrapped in kelp, placed on top of steaming rice and a layer of Ariake nori seaweed.
The shiso leaves, sesame seeds, and chili threads give the dish a visually appealing look and enhance its deliciousness.
Furthermore, the special sauce, "Mentaiju® Sauce," which was developed after much trial and error, enhances the mentaiko's flavor and adds depth to the taste.
The combination of rice, mentaiko, and sauce is truly golden.

Thanks to you, since our founding in 2010, we have had customers from not only our local Hakata area, but also from other prefectures and even overseas, and we are now so well-liked by so many customers every day that it is said that "when it comes to Hakata specialties, Ganso Hakata Mentaiju ju®︎ is the first thing that comes to mind."

We will continue to do our utmost to satisfy as many customers as possible.
