Chisou Nishi Kenichi (馳走西健一)

Chisou Nishi Kenichi, an eight-seat counter restaurant near Nishi-Yaizu Station in Shizuoka, is honored in the Tabelog French EAST Hyakumeiten 2025 for a seafood-driven menu built on fish landed at Suruga Bay, shaped by chef Kenichi Nishi’s years of French and Japanese culinary training.

All eight seats face the counter, with no private rooms and 3 parking spaces on site; the kitchen makes a point of using leftover fish bones and trim for its stocks and sauces. Credit cards are accepted (VISA, Mastercard, JCB, AMEX, Diners), though electronic money and QR code payment are not available.

Chisou Nishi Kenichi keeps no fixed closing day; lunch begins at 12:00 and dinner at 18:00, so guests should confirm current hours and availability with the restaurant before visiting.
