Matsuyama Taimeshi Akiyoshi Dogo
Located about 1 minute from Dogo Onsen Station, Matsuyama Taimeshi Akiyoshi Dogo is a local cuisine restaurant in the Dogo Onsen shopping street. It offered a comparison of Matsuyama tai-meshi cooked in a clay pot and raw Uwajima tai-meshi.
Matsuyama Tai-meshi Akiyoshi Dogo is a local-cuisine restaurant in the Dogo Onsen shopping street. According to the official website, it serves Ehime local dishes including Matsuyama tai-meshi cooked directly over a flame in a clay pot with fragrant browned rice, raw Uwajima tai-meshi, and tai somen. It also offers seafood from the Seto Inland Sea and local sake. Matsuyama tai-meshi is a takikomi-gohan style dish in which sea bream is cooked in a clay pot, while Uwajima tai-meshi is sashimi served with an egg-based sauce; the appeal of the comparison is being able to enjoy the difference between them at once.
Location and entrance
The address is the second floor of the Eight One Building, 12-34 Dogo Yunomachi, Matsuyama. It is about 51 m from the Dogo Onsen streetcar station, in the building immediately to the left after entering the shopping street arcade. Since the restaurant is not on the first floor facing the street, first-time visitors should expect to go up to the second floor.
Reservations, seating, and payment
The official website says that reservations are not accepted and that seats are assigned in order of arrival. There are 51 seats: four sunken kotatsu tables for four people, three tables for four, and 13 counter seats. There are two private rooms for four and six people. Banquets can accommodate 2 to 16 people, and private hire can accommodate up to 51 people. Payment is accepted by credit card (VISA, MASTER, JCB, AMERICAN EXPRESS, Diners Club, UnionPay) and paypay.
Facilities and conditions of use
- Smoking: The entire restaurant is non-smoking.
- Parking: None. The official website recommends nearby coin-operated parking.
- Barrier-free access: The building has an elevator and is wheelchair accessible (the website advises contacting the restaurant for details).
- Children: Infants are allowed. Baby food may be brought in, strollers are allowed, and a children’s menu is available.

Takeout and conditions for closing
Tai-meshi takeout (wappa-meshi bento) costs 1,300 yen including tax and takes about 30 minutes to cook. During busy periods such as the year-end/New Year period and Golden Week, takeout may not be available. The official information also states that service ends when all the sea bream has sold out, both for dine-in and takeout. Even if you arrive within opening hours, it may be sold out, so arriving early is safest if you want to be sure to eat it.
