I studied in UP but somehow never got to eating here. 10 years later and I finally found myself at New Kamameshi House, and it's no wonder why it's such a household name.
The place looks sad and old, but the food is quite good. Their kamameshi really is the star of their menu, and the eel was nicely cooked and not mushy. The rolls were huge and had a good filling to rice ratio. Sukiyaki also had a good taste to it - not too sweet and had more than enough meat and vegetables for two people.
The teppanyaki isn't too good. The beef teppan tasted good but the beef was chewy. Also ordered the prawn and the tuna teppan, but the meats were also overcooked.
Other than the unfortunate teppanyaki experience and the not so good ambiance, food is good with decent serving sizes.
One of the more authentic Japanese restaurants in town. Dining at this place is always a fine experience. Enjoyed my dinner tonight with my folks. Ordered a lot of food and we were really satisfied.
What we ordered:
Kani Kamameshi Rice
Pork Gyoza
Panko-Crusted Tonkatsu
Ebi Tempura
We went here on a Thursday night so it was pretty quiet. Service was quick and our food came out in no time. Everything tasted great. The house tea was really good! We especially loved the Kani Kamameshi rice and the ebi tempura. The meat in the tonkatsu was very juicy and the crust was perfectly golden-brown. My only complaint is that the gyoza was a bit dry.
Wanted to try their Pork Cheese Age, but we were told it wasn’t available at the time. :( Might come back for this.
Place is quite old and musty. I think people come here for the nostalgia and the old world charm. The servers were accommodating.
The food here is excellent. Their Tempura is to die for :) the Kamameshi Rice is a must try... i love the friendly service. Their waiters really make you feel taken care of

My husband and I spend special dates here because it’s usually quiet in this restaurant. I heard that it used to be one of the best Japanese restaurants in Manila.
The service is always great, too. The kamameshi here is the best we’ve had and their uni and other sashimi are always fresh.
Nestled at the heart of QC Circle, Kamameshi is a treasure for those who can spot it. We ordered the Katsudon, Tendon, Yakiudon & Tempura Roll. With the serving size, attentive staff and savings from Zomato Gold, I'd say the meal was a steal.
Loved their chicken kamameshi, yakitori, and especially their ebi tempura-super malaman and hindi puro harina :) the servers were very enthusiastic too :)
Kamameshi is one of my favorite restaurants, providing a wonderful taste of Japanese cuisine, this restaurant has a special place in my heart because ever since my son was a child we would eat here and have a wonderful time! I suggest you try their sukiyaki and sashimi, both fresh and delicious! Also try their wide assortment of sushi rolls! A definite must try!
Growing up, my grandmother always likes to eat here. So in this visit, I wanted to order those that she liked.
We tried the following:
Kakiage
Gindara
Kamameshi rice
After all these years, they still served solid food. While a bit more expensive than I remember its still good. Service was solid and quality was the same.
This is a staple restaurant for our family. We frequent it growing up and absolutely love the Chicken Kamameshi Rice and Ebi Tempura! I always love coming back to enjoy the food whose quality has never wavered.
