About Ryobo

Ryobo is a six-seat Italian counter in Takamatsu with a wine-forward tasting menu at JPY 15,000–19,999. The sommelier-led pairings and ingredient-first cooking justify the price for special occasions, but the small room and reservation-only format make it a poor fit for large groups or casual drop-ins. Book one day ahead for weeknights; weekends fill faster.

Ryobo sits at the top of Takamatsu's Italian price ladder, charging JPY 15,000–19,999 for a wine-paired tasting menu that runs circles around Honetsukidori Ranmaru's JPY 3,000–3,999 yakitori format and Teuchi Udon Tsurumaru's sub-JPY 1,000 udon bowls. The quality gap is real, Ryobo earned Tabelog Bronze in 2025 and 2026, while those spots remain category workhorses. If you're after Italian and willing to pay for sommelier guidance, this is the only venue in Kagawa that delivers that pairing at this level. Jidori Labo occupies a similar price band (JPY 10,000–14,999) but pivots toward chicken-focused kaiseki; Ryobo's wine list and Italian technique make it the better pick for wine enthusiasts.

Booking difficulty tilts in Ryobo's favor: one day's notice usually suffices, while Honetsukidori Ranmaru and Jidori Labo can fill up a week ahead during peak travel windows. The six-seat counter means you're never waiting for a table to turn, but it also caps group size, parties of five or six need to book the full room. For solo diners or couples, Ryobo offers more intimacy and menu sophistication than Gyoza Ya's JPY 1,000–1,999 gyoza counter, which trades polish for volume and speed.

Value depends on your priorities. If wine matters and you're marking an occasion, Ryobo justifies the outlay with focused pairings and a quiet room. If you're chasing Kagawa's regional specialties, udon, yakitori, chicken kaiseki, you'll find better expressions of those at lower price points elsewhere in the city's dining roster. Ryobo is the splurge Italian meal Takamatsu offers; it won't disappoint wine drinkers, but it won't convert anyone who came for sanuki udon.
