History
Kamameshi House has been serving traditional Japanese cuisine as early as 1981. Originating in the Philippines and brought over to South San Francisco in 1985. To this day we are still family run, and pride ourselves on serving only the most authentic and excellently prepared Japanese dishes, thanks to skillfully trained chefs and staff. One of our founders was able to train at Torigin, a well-known Japanese restaurant in Tokyo that specialized in kamameshi and yakitori, before bringing back her expertise to the Philippines. Although it may not be known these days, our tori kamameshi (chicken rice) has always been one of the favorites. Served steaming in the iron pot, the kettle-cooked rice is topped with diced chicken and flavored with our special sauce. Come by today and make sure you try our families recipes that we've been perfecting for nearly half a century.
