Mori-meshi Miyanoshita
Miyanoshita, Japan

Mori-meshi offers a relaxed alternative to the formal dining rooms of Hakone’s hotels. Its Miyanoshita branch sits near the station, with a warm wooden interior and Japanese cooking built around local ingredients. Fish, vegetables and a sake list give a meal plenty of scope without requiring a long tasting menu. Choose it for an informal lunch or evening with friends, and make sure you reserve the Miyanoshita branch rather than another restaurant with the same name.
