The Mizutaki Lunch for One is a must-try! The Mentaiko Rice Bowl Set is also recommended for tourists at "Hakata Kamaitachi" Nakasu Main Branch
Hello! I'm Hakata Aya, a writer who loves hot information about Fukuoka.
This time, we will introduce "Mizutaki Restaurant Hakata Kamaitachi Nakasu Main Branch," which reopened today, Friday, October 10, 2025.
A five-story building with private rooms! The newly renovated Mizutaki restaurant Hakata Kamidori Nakasu Main Branch (Nakasu, Hakata Ward, Fukuoka City)
Mizutaki Restaurant Hakata Hanamidori serves specially prepared mizutaki using the company's own brand of chicken, Hanamidori. This popular restaurant originated in Fukuoka and has branches in the Kanto and Kansai regions, as well as Dalian, China.
The Nakasu Main Store was temporarily closed in May 2024 due to the aging of the building, but has now returned after undergoing major reconstruction work that lasted approximately one year and four months.
It is about a 5-minute walk from Nakasu-Kawabata Station on the Fukuoka City Subway Airport Line. Look for the "Hakata Bay" sign.

The interior of the store is a bright, warm and relaxing space with a wood grain motif.
The restaurant has 46 tables and seats 180 people, with a VIP room on the first floor, a large hall with table seating that can be used by groups on the second floor, and table seating including private rooms with a relaxed atmosphere on the third to fifth floors (a 10% service charge applies for dinner orders).
Enjoy Mizutaki casually by yourself! Lunch-only Mizutaki Mentaiko Gozen set menu now available
The essence of Hakata Kamaitachi's Mizutaki is its rich, cloudy soup. It is made using the founder's secret "Chicken Layer Cooking Method," which involves simmering fresh chicken bones and a whole Kamaitachi chicken for eight hours. The soup is packed with collagen, and when it cools, it turns into a jelly-like consistency that won't fall off even if you turn it upside down.
It has a deep richness yet a smooth texture, bringing out the flavor of the ingredients, such as chicken, vegetables, and tofu, and the umami of the soup itself increases, making it irresistibly delicious right to the very end.

However, it takes time and it's not something you can easily enjoy by yourself... but with the lunch service that has just started at Mizutaki Restaurant Hakata Kamaitachi Nakasu Main Branch, this can now be achieved.
The Mizutaki Mentaiko Gozen (2,480 yen), a lunchtime menu item only available from 11:30 to 15:00, lets you enjoy Mizutaki in a small pot for one person! This is something I was particularly happy about in this renewal.

A small hotpot of Mizutaki is topped with a "Mini Mentaiko Chicken Minced Rice Bowl" made with minced chicken made with Hanamidori chicken and homemade Spicy Fish Eggs, along with a small side dish, soup, pickles, and a dessert.
First, we'll have the cloudy soup.

The gentle flavor of the chicken spreads throughout your mouth, and the umami permeates your entire body. It's worth coming for lunch just to enjoy this exquisite soup!
Although it is called a "small hot pot," it is nice that it contains a generous amount of large pieces of meat. The "Hanamidori" combined with the flavor of the soup has an exquisite taste.

The homemade ponzu sauce also brings out the exquisite flavor of the chicken and vegetables.
It's the perfect balance, neither too strong nor too weak. Apparently, this flavor was created by the founding couple through trial and error.
In addition to ponzu, I also eat it with salt and yuzu pepper. Each is delicious and very satisfying.

The "Mini Mentaiko Minced Meat Rice Bowl" has beautiful colors.

The deep flavor of Spicy Fish Eggs, with its subdued spiciness, paired perfectly with the sweet minced meat. Even though it's a "mini," it's still quite filling and satisfying.

It's truly amazing that you can enjoy Mizutaki even by yourself at lunchtime!
It is also recommended for tourists as you can enjoy two Fukuoka specialties, Mizutaki and Spicy Fish Eggs, at the same time.
A special evening Mizutaki course that will satisfy your soul!
During the evening, staff will be assigned to each table to ensure that you can enjoy the deliciousness of the mizutaki to the fullest, and they will serve it at the perfect time.
They have a variety of course meals available, including the "Aji Course" (first photo, 4,000 yen) and the "Kinka Course" (second photo, 6,000 yen). *Photos are for illustrative purposes only.
One of the highlights is the special "Beni Kujaku Course" (starting from 10,000 yen, for 4 or more people, reservation required 3 days in advance) which is only available at the Nakasu Main Branch. It includes a small dish, five appetizers, two kinds of sashimi of the day, a seasonal delicacy, Hanamidori Mizutaki (chopped, minced, filleted, liver, vegetable platter, rice porridge or champon noodles), mentaiko takana (spicy cod roe), and a dessert. Along with the Mizutaki, you can enjoy a sumptuous meal made with luxurious seasonal ingredients.

It is also recommended for special occasions and important dinners.
Souvenir items for you to enjoy at home are also available for sale.
There is also a souvenir corner on the first floor, where they sell sets for enjoying Mizutaki at home, homemade ponzu sauce, yuzu pepper, and even dog treats.
It would also make a great souvenir from Fukuoka.
Mizutaki restaurant Hakata Kamaitachi Nakasu Main Branch has started serving lunch, making it even easier to enjoy Mizutaki. It's stylish and comfortable, so be sure to check it out. (Text by Hakata Aya.)
