In 1927, the first owner of the restaurant established the Western restaurant "Akadama" in Katamachi, Kanazawa.

Since 1947, when the first proprietress of the restaurant began serving oden in order to run the restaurant single-handedly, following the wishes of her late husband, who was a chef, the dish quickly became popular with many customers in the cold Hokuriku region, warming both the body and the soul, and has spread its name as a taste rooted in the local area.

During the post-war reconstruction period, Akatama's oden became a source of comfort for many people, and its taste has been preserved through the changing times from the Showa to the Heisei and now the Reiwa era. The restaurant has been passed down through generations of female proprietors, and in 2019, the current fourth-generation proprietress returned to her hometown from Tokyo to work on establishing the "Kanazawa Oden" brand for a new era.

While inheriting the flavor of this long-established restaurant, we continue to take on new challenges to meet modern needs, such as mail order sales and the development of seasonal menus. Bringing the flavors of Kanazawa to the whole country. Akadama Honten will continue to welcome you with the same dashi and passion.
