Fodor's Expert Review Sugi no I

On the south bank of the Sai-gawa River close to the Sakura-bashi Bridge, this elegant restaurant serves Kaga specialties. Dinner in a private room overlooking the garden is a splurge but worth it. In traditional Japanese style, the meal finishes with rice, pickles, and soup; in autumn the broth is clear, with herbs and a shrimp dumpling. Full-course dinners start at ¥12,000, while lunches start from ¥5,000. It's a fancy place, so you'll want to dress up a bit, and you'll need a reservation at least three days ahead.
