Higoto Japanese Eatery is a takeout-only restaurant located in a small office building, with parking available in front of a nearby Times supermarket. The restaurant offers a variety of Japanese dishes, including vegetarian options and sushi bowls. The sushi rice is particularly flavorful, and the restaurant is generous with toppings such as ikura (salmon roe). Popular dishes include the Yakitori chicken, Tonkatsu (fried pork cutlet), Hamburger steak, and Miso salmon. The Bentos, which come with a few sides, are a great way to sample different dishes. Customers often praise the bentos, especially the miso butterfish / miso salmon bento, and the ikura sushi cup, which is quite filling and high quality. The restaurant also offers both white rice and purple rice for musubis, with favorites like ume shiso, mentaiko egg, and chicken tsukune musubis. The store is small and cute, with only one outdoor table for three people. Staff are friendly and helpful, and the place tends to sell out quickly in the mornings, especially popular items like the butterfish with multigrain rice. The restaurant is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. Visitors highlight the care put into each item, noting that the ingredients taste fresh. The bento options are reasonably priced and filling, making it a good choice for prepared meals. With a good selection of musubis and bentos, customers often recommend arriving early to get the popular sushi bowls before they sell out. The outdoor seating is limited, so many choose to enjoy their food elsewhere. The spot is known for its interesting musubi flavors, such as tuna mayo apple cucumber, and its special musubi of the day. The overall atmosphere is cozy and convenient for grab-and-go meals, with a friendly staff ready to assist.
