Bistro Yuiga
There's a gentle jazz soundtrack to accompany elegantly prepared French delicacies in this one-time private home. Set menus include treats like raw ham and - because this is Kanazawa - seafood. It's a short walk off the main street from Katamachi, down the street opposite Kōtatsu.

Jiyūken
In the Higashi Chaya-gai, this simple but welcoming spot has been serving yō-shoku (Japanese takes on Western cuisine: beef stew, grilled chicken, omelettes etc) since 1909. The teishoku is a steal. Plastic models in the window. Look for the stone front and art deco design.

Kōtatsu
More sophisticated than your everyday okonomiyaki place, there's a dark atmosphere and an assortment of sakes and shochūs, and they'll cook your okonomiyaki (cabbage pancakes) for you. Salads are also available. It's near Mister Donut, two doors down from the Takoya takoyaki (octopus dumplings) stand.

Oden Miyuki Honten
For fish in another form (ground and pressed into cakes and served in broth), oden is very satisfying especially on chilly nights. This place has lots of fans, including Ishikawa's most famous son, New York Yankees baseball star Hideki Matsui. Sit at the counter to watch all the action. Some English-speaking staff.

Tamazushi
Down near Sai-gawa in Katamachi, this minimalist restaurant is one of Kanazawa's best sushi spots. Teishoku are displayed in the front window. It's on your right as you enter from the main street.
