About
Founded in 1752. The most historical and traditional Japanese restaurant in Kanazawa Before exploring the world of cuisine, many generations of the Tsuba family had been artisans of making Tsuba-sword guards in the Kaga Province. In 1752, Jinbei Tsuba III opened a small restaurant besides his main business of sword guard making. This was the origin of Tsubajin as a Japanese restaurant (Ryotei). The restaurant gained a great reputation among the feudal lords, and soon it was recognized as the best restaurant in the Kaga Province. After the Meiji restoration in early 19th century, literary masters including Saisen-Muro and political figures including Ito Hirobumi, the first Prime Minister of Japan, had all dined at Tsubajin to enjoy specialties from the Kaga region. Today, we welcome guests from all around the world to experience one of the most historical and traditional Japanese restaurants in not only Kanazawa, but also Japan.
