A silky demi-glace omurice at ¥1,250 — where value and atmosphere come together.

It's also **about 8 minutes on foot from Hiratsuka Station**, so access isn't bad, and the restaurant sits quietly in an area wrapped in sea breeze and sunset light. The wood-accented, bright exterior looks less like a "Western restaurant" and more like a seaside cafe. ## Bright interior with high ceilings and space to breathe ![](https://img.wiredxeco.com/jjj-tokyo/mare-yuhigaoka/386419a5652fcdf0ec2ef505e968e058.webp) Step inside and there's a bright white-centered space. The ceilings run high, plants punctuate the room, and table spacing leaves room to relax — the "seaside resort" tone is dialed in. Private rooms and a terrace are available, and pets are accommodated too. An interior that works for dates, family visits, and plenty of other occasions. ## Lunch in the low ¥1000s, with soup and salad included ![](https://img.wiredxeco.com/jjj-tokyo/mare-yuhigaoka/9113b6a11dca37bc57fe38d03f940382.webp) Lunch sits in the **low ¥1000s, with salad and soup included** — firmly in the value bracket. Omurice (demi-glace) and chicken doria around **¥1,250**; hamburger and pasta **¥1,200–¥1,350** — for this content at Hiratsuka's coastline, this is quietly generous pricing. Factoring in the atmosphere, it reads as a strong price point. ## The silky demi-glace omurice plays the lead ![](https://img.wiredxeco.com/jjj-tokyo/mare-yuhigaoka/ddf21caa6325cf46bde85ca00b2779aa.webp) The undisputed star is the **omurice**. Fluffy egg wrapped around rice, with slow-simmered demi-glace piled on top generously. This is the house signature the chefs have iterated on repeatedly, and it cleanly clears the "Western restaurant omurice" bar. ![](https://img.wiredxeco.com/jjj-tokyo/mare-yuhigaoka/39f15e56d4821d5395a455a5d245cd1e.webp) Sea-close, spacious, affordable, with a strong signature dish — shops that hit all four are surprisingly rare, but MARE YUHIGAOKA actually clears each. If you're debating a Western lunch in Hiratsuka, this belongs on the first short list.
