Sea bream (madai) is an essential fish for celebratory occasions in Japan and is considered one of the country’s premium seafoods. At Umeboshi, however, it’s offered at an affordable price so everyone can enjoy its refined flavor. In autumn, Fukuoka sea bream becomes especially rich and flavorful. Here, it’s grilled and topped with a smooth butter sauce made with Fukuoka’s famous spicy cod roe (mentaiko). The dish combines the delicate, flaky texture of the fish with the pleasant pop of the mentaiko roe—finished with a topping of fresh, uncooked mentaiko for added depth.
Located in the up-and-coming “Ura-Tenjin” area—literally “Back Tenjin,” a hidden gourmet hotspot—Umeboshi offers a wide range of comforting dishes that pair beautifully with drinks. Its signature niku-dofu (braised beef and tofu) is a must-try, and the relaxed atmosphere makes it perfect for both casual meals and izakaya-style evenings.
