As the number of seats is limited to just 20, it may be difficult to prepare a table for a group of 6 or more people who just show up at the restaurant when it is busy.
If you are planning to visit Urugi Village on a weekend or holiday and dine at our restaurant, we recommend that you make a reservation in advance.
We accept reservations from one person, so please feel free to contact us.
Also, if you would like to wait until a seat becomes available when it is busy, please tell our staff the name and contact information of the representative.
We will contact you as soon as the seat is ready.
