If you’re a uni lover, Uni Murakami Hakodate Honten is absolutely worth the visit. The highlight here is, of course, the uni — incredibly fresh, sweet, and completely free of any bitter aftertaste. You can really tell they don’t use alum, which makes a huge difference in texture and flavor. The uni rice bowls are simple but done perfectly, letting the quality of the sea urchin shine. The restaurant itself has a warm, traditional Japanese vibe — cozy and welcoming without being too formal. Service is efficient and polite, even during busy hours. It’s definitely on the pricier side, but the quality justifies it. If you’re in Hakodate and want to try some of the best uni in Japan, this place delivers.

A bit away from seafood restaurants in morning market. Serves mainly raw n grilled seafood. Known for fresh uni without alum preservative. Also had Hokkaido beef. Overall attentive service, pleasant dining area n clean but but pricey compared to morning market restaurants.

We have the special lunch set that cost 7150 yen per person. The portion is good enough and taste is great. A place for Uni lovers.

Very delicious sea urchin and sashimi. the grilled surf clam and abalone are equally good.

This branch of Uni Murakami offers more seating and a more spacious dining area compared to the main location. It also features some unique menu items you won’t find at the main branch — definitely worth visiting both! The staff were attentive and provided excellent service throughout our meal. You absolutely shouldn’t miss the uni dishes here — they’re crafted with care and creativity, and truly highlight the rich flavor of fresh Hokkaido sea urchin. A memorable uni dining experience. Highly recommended!
