【Owner: Mr. Takanori Matsunaga】
After leaving his corporate career, Mr. Matsunaga gained hands-on cooking experience at yatai food stalls before deepening his knowledge of seafood while working at a fresh fish shop. In 2005, he opened Matsunaga Suisan. Today, the restaurant offers a wide variety of dishes centered on seafood from the waters around Kyushu.

Many visitors already know how delicious Fukuoka’s squid is—and this holds true for travelers from overseas as well. At Matsunaga Suisan, each order is prepared by taking live squid directly from the tank and skillfully filleting it on the spot to serve as ikezukuri. Its crystal-clear flesh, pleasantly springy texture, and sweetness that deepens with every bite are unmistakable signs of freshness. “It’s especially popular with female guests and perfectly suits the Hinamatsuri season,” says Mr. Matsunaga with a smile. Fukuoka-grown squid is sure to add a festive touch to spring celebrations.
Seafood dishes made with ingredients from Fukuoka and across Kyushu are the restaurant’s signature. Live tanks inside the shop hold squid, conger eel, and other seafood sourced from specialist suppliers, ensuring outstanding freshness. The menu also includes a wide selection of non-seafood dishes.
