Restaurant in Tottori, Japan
Serious Japanese dining outside the major cities.
Mitsuki is Tottori's most consistently awarded Japanese cuisine restaurant, holding Tabelog Bronze Awards in 2024, 2025, and 2026 with a score of 4.15. Dinner runs JPY 15,000–19,999 per person, private rooms are available, and booking is straightforward via Pocket Concierge. The right choice for a serious dinner on the San'in Coast.
The common assumption about serious Japanese cuisine is that you need to be in Tokyo, Kyoto, or Osaka to find it at this level. Mitsuki corrects that. This Tottori kaiseki and seafood restaurant has earned Tabelog Bronze Awards in 2024, 2025, and 2026, holds a Tabelog score of 4.15, and has been selected for the Tabelog Japanese Cuisine WEST "Tabelog 100" in both 2023 and 2025. That is a consistent, verifiable track record of quality, not a one-off year. If you are visiting Tottori and care about where you eat, this is the booking to prioritize.
Mitsuki occupies the second floor of a building on Suehiroonsencho, a short distance from Tottori Station. The second-floor setting creates immediate separation from street-level noise, and private rooms are available, which makes this a workable choice for business dinners or occasions where you want a contained, quiet space. The restaurant is entirely non-smoking and no parking is available on site, so plan to arrive on foot or by taxi. The physical format rewards smaller parties: private room availability means groups can secure their own space, but the overall scale of the venue suggests this is not a large banquet operation. First-timers should request the private room option when booking if that setting appeals.
The cuisine draws on Tottori's position as a prefecture with both mountain and coastal access. The Tabelog description references seasonal produce from both sources, which in practice means the menu tracks what is available locally across the year. Tottori is known for its crab (particularly matsuba crab in winter), as well as seafood from the Sea of Japan coast. The menu format is not specified in detail, but the price range and award profile are consistent with a kaiseki or omakase-style progression rather than a la carte ordering.
The listed average price is JPY 15,000 to JPY 19,999 per person at dinner. Review-based data puts the real-world average higher, in the JPY 20,000 to JPY 29,999 range, with some visitors reporting spend in the JPY 50,000 to JPY 59,999 bracket. That spread suggests a base menu price plus optional add-ons, or that the experience scales significantly with drinks. Lunch pricing is not listed, which is worth noting: if a lunch service is available and priced lower, it may represent a more accessible entry point. Confirm directly when booking. At the dinner price point, Mitsuki sits in a similar tier to award-recognized Japanese restaurants in secondary Japanese cities, and the three-year Tabelog Bronze run gives you confidence that the kitchen is consistent, not coasting on an early reputation.
Mitsuki is reservation-only. The restaurant's Tabelog profile notes that phone calls during business hours can be difficult to connect, so the practical route is online booking through Pocket Concierge, which accepts reservations and waitlist requests 24 hours a day. Booking difficulty is rated easy relative to comparable award-level Japanese restaurants, which is a genuine advantage over venues in Tokyo or Kyoto that can require weeks of advance planning. That said, closing days are not fixed, so confirm the date before making travel arrangements around the reservation. Reservations: Online via Pocket Concierge or by phone (+81-857-23-2637). Budget: JPY 15,000–19,999 (listed); JPY 20,000–29,999 (review average) at dinner. Parking: Not available. Payment: Credit cards accepted (VISA, Mastercard, JCB, AMEX, Diners). Private rooms: Available. Smoking: Non-smoking throughout.
Mitsuki makes most sense for travelers who are already in Tottori, or who are building a San'in Coast itinerary and want a serious dinner rather than a serviceable one. The private room option and the recommendation for business occasions (flagged on the Tabelog profile) mean it also works for corporate dining in the region. It is not the choice if you want a casual meal or if budget is a constraint: the price floor is firm and the reservation-only format means you are committing in advance.

For the closest comparable experience in the prefecture, Kaniyoshi is worth considering alongside Mitsuki when planning your Tottori dining.
Within Tottori, Mitsuki is the clearest choice for a formal, award-backed Japanese cuisine dinner. The three consecutive Tabelog Bronze Awards and two Tabelog 100 selections put it in a category that very few restaurants in the San'in region can match. If you are comparing it to other Tottori options, Mitsuki sits at the leading of the documented quality tier. Kaniyoshi is the main peer worth considering in the city, particularly for crab-focused dining.
Placed against award-level Japanese restaurants elsewhere in western Japan, Mitsuki's price point is competitive. Gion Sasaki in Kyoto and akordu in Nara both operate at higher price floors in more visited cities, and both carry significantly harder booking conditions. Mitsuki's relative accessibility is a real advantage. Goh in Fukuoka is a fair stylistic comparison for creative Japanese cuisine in a regional city, though it occupies a different format and price tier. For sushi specifically, Harutaka in Tokyo is the benchmark for the leading end of that category, but that is a different trip entirely.
If you are visiting Tottori from a base in Tokyo and weighing whether to build a meal around this restaurant, the honest answer is: the quality is documented and the booking is easier than almost anything comparable in Tokyo. Venues like Atomix in New York City or Le Bernardin in New York City illustrate what top-tier tasting menu experiences look like globally; Mitsuki operates at a meaningful level below those benchmarks in terms of international profile, but for what Tottori offers as a destination, it is the right anchor dinner. The regional seafood access alone justifies the detour if you are already on the San'in Coast.
Yes, with some caveats. The Tabelog profile specifically flags business dining as a recommended occasion, and the private room availability makes it suitable for celebrations where a degree of privacy matters. The dinner price range of JPY 15,000 to JPY 19,999 (with real-world averages higher) and the three-year Tabelog Bronze Award track record support its use as a special-occasion venue. It is a more contained, formal experience than a lively celebratory restaurant, so it suits anniversaries and client dinners better than large group parties.
Dinner is the documented choice: the listed price range of JPY 15,000 to JPY 19,999 applies to dinner, and the awards and reviews are centered on the evening format. Lunch service is available, but no pricing is listed for it, which suggests it may operate differently from the main dinner format. If budget is a consideration, it is worth asking about the lunch menu when booking via Pocket Concierge, as lunch at kaiseki-adjacent restaurants in Japan often offers a more accessible version of the kitchen's range.
Private room use is available and the venue is noted as available for private hire. That makes it viable for groups who want a contained space. Exact maximum party size is not listed, so confirm capacity when booking. The reservation-only policy means you will need to organize this in advance. For groups larger than a standard dinner party, contact the restaurant directly by phone (+81-857-23-2637) rather than relying solely on the online booking system.
There is no confirmed bar or counter seating in the available data for Mitsuki. The venue appears to operate primarily with table and private room seating. If bar-style counter dining is important to your experience, this may not be the right format: Tottori's bar scene is covered separately in our full Tottori bars guide.
No dietary restriction policy is listed in the available data. Given the reservation-only format and the cuisine style, the practical approach is to raise any restrictions at the time of booking via Pocket Concierge or by phone. Japanese cuisine restaurants at this price level typically accommodate requests made in advance, but that cannot be assumed without confirmation. Do not arrive without having communicated restrictions beforehand.
Kaniyoshi is the closest peer in Tottori for a formal Japanese cuisine dinner. Beyond the city, western Japan has strong options at comparable or higher price points: Gion Sasaki in Kyoto and HAJIME in Osaka are both harder to book and more expensive, but represent the upper end of the regional quality tier. Abon in Ashiya and affetto akita in Akita illustrate how award-level dining plays out in other Japanese regional cities at similar price points. For a broader view of where Mitsuki fits in the national context, see Aji Arai in Oita and 6 in Okinawa as regional comparators.

A quick look at how Mitsuki measures up.
The venue data does not specify a dietary accommodation policy, so check the venue's official channels before booking — by phone (+81-857-23-2637) or via Pocket Concierge's reservation system. At JPY 15,000–20,000+ per person for a set-format dinner, it is worth clarifying requirements at the time of reservation rather than on arrival.
Private rooms are available and the restaurant is listed as suitable for full private hire, which makes it a workable option for group dinners and business occasions. Tabelog specifically flags business dining as a recommended use case for Mitsuki. For larger parties, booking through Pocket Concierge and noting group size in advance is the practical approach, given the reservation-only policy.
No counter or bar seating is documented in the venue data. Mitsuki operates from the second floor of a building on Suehiroonsencho and the available seating details reference private rooms rather than open counter formats. If bar-style dining is important to you, this is not the venue to target.
Yes — Tabelog's own data flags it as particularly recommended for business dining, and the private room availability makes it a solid choice for celebratory meals that require some separation from the main floor. A Tabelog Bronze winner with a 4.15 score and three consecutive years of recognition (2024, 2025, 2026), it carries enough credentials to anchor a special trip to Tottori. Budget JPY 20,000–30,000 per person based on actual reviewer spend.
Dinner is the documented occasion here: the listed budget is JPY 15,000–19,999 at dinner, while lunch pricing is not specified. If you are visiting primarily for the food, dinner is the format to book. Lunch is listed as available, but without pricing data it is harder to assess relative value — confirm directly via Pocket Concierge or phone before planning a midday visit.
Mitsuki is the only Tottori restaurant in Pearl's database carrying Tabelog Bronze recognition and Tabelog 100 status for Japanese cuisine in the West region, which means direct local comparisons at the same tier are limited. If you are building a broader San'in Coast or western Japan itinerary, the comparison tier shifts to destination Japanese restaurants in Osaka or Kyoto rather than Tottori specifically.
