Matsumoto Karaage Center

There are all delicious!!! The fried chicken dishes are crispy and moist. I love it. Fried chicken and beer are the best combination in the world 😌💛 There’s only 1-2 staffs for service in queue and order. Please wait a little if you come in rush hour.

I definitely recommend going here for lunchtime! I got the karaage + ramen set, while a friend got the standard karaage set. Large pieces of karaage were provided, with unlimited sauces and seasonings in the side. Karaage pieces were thick and juicy.

The two-style chicken menus were delicious, offering a tasty flavor and crispy texture while keeping the meat juicy. Various sauces were available on the table. Additionally, the all-you-can-eat pickled bean sprouts were very yummy. However, when it comes to the service, it was a little uncomfortable. I arrived there around 6:30 PM and joined the queue around 7 PM. While I was eating, I felt like the staff really wanted to go home because they came and looked at me many times, and not just one staff, but all of them. They did this to many tables around me as well.

Located above the JR train station, at F4. Large dishes of juicy fried chicken. The Sunzokuyaki plate was perfectly done, the karaage plate was under cooked, and some parts were still raw. They serve local beer, and basic fruite juice ( take the beer, not the juice...)

Not sure why this is rated fairly low but this is one of the most generous restaurants I had ever been to. Really crispy and juicy karaage and they provide a LOT for a very good price. Food is also served really quickly and the staff is friendly despite speaking limited english.

Ordered the take out here and the karaage was delivered quickly and the chicken was tasty as well. However, the interaction with the female staff that I had has just a very rude attitude that made even a short ordering takeout experience terrible. We are just customers trying to purchase from the establishment, it is not like we did something and owe you tremendously. There are better karaage stores if you are considering . Also be warned if you do get the chicken that it does have a strong smell for the train.

Great chicken recipe famous in Matsumoto (chicken is marinated in a garlic sauce then fried). So it’s nice and juicy. We had to wait about 20 minutes for a table (at 5:30). English menu available. On 4th floor in a building over the top of the railway station. I see others have rated this store badly due to service (not food). We had great service. Thoroughly recommend.

Heard about this famous restaurant for its sanzokuyaki chicken and finally went on our last night in Matsumoto as it is just above the Matsumoto station. Staff speaks limited English but there's English menu. I ordered the set the comes with soba noodles. The portion was huge!! Chicken was cut in thick slices but moist inside. Suggest if you are not that hungry, can share between 2 pax if restaurant allowed for 1 order and other side dishes or just order the normal chicken set. The pickled ginger is one of the best I have ever tasted - crunchy, not too sweet or sour and usually I don't like it! We went quite late and waited 20mins to enter around 7pm or so and food was served not long after our order. The restaurant closes at 8pm so you have to eat fast as they don't allow customers to stay on.
