One of the best 3 Michelin meals in the world I’ve had in recent memory. We were a party of five, made a reservation in the private room next to kitchen for just a modest fee. Every ingredient on their menu is sourced from Japan only. The vegetable medley consisted of 64 different types of vegetable/root/fruits. The restaurant usually does not encourage guests to bring their own wines, but allowed us to open our bottles once we signaled intent to order wine from them as well.

This is a restaurant of which I am exceedingly fond. I first visited to celebrate a special anniversary. On that occasion, the food was quite exceptional, and, happily, I was able to secure my next booking with relative ease. Since then, wishing to savour the restaurant’s seasonal offerings throughout the year, I have made a point of returning every three or four months. No matter how many times I visit, it never loses its charm. It is, quite simply, a splendid restaurant.

I visited for a special occasion, and it remains one of my most memorable Tokyo dining experiences. Chef’s ability to blend French technique with Japanese ingredients and culture elements is world-class. It was great to see their collaboration on the JAL Business Class menu recently—well deserved. Some Highlights: The Signature Turnip: Their "Fixed Point" turnip is a masterclass in technique. I’ve never had a vegetable maximized like this; it’s incredibly rich and savory. The Salad: The beautiful presentation of the fresh vegetable basket was definitely memorable. They showcase the raw ingredients before preparing a complex salad of 50+ seasonal items. The Ceremony: The meal concludes with a traditional Japanese tea ceremony, which adds a beautiful, meditative layer to the fine dining experience. Service & Departure: Service was always warm and attentive, as expected of a top-tier restaurant. We left with a generous gift bag, including a bottle of fancy artisanal soy sauce. A definitive three-star experience that I hope to revisit next time in Tokyo.

Our long awaited very first time to this 3 stars restaurant. I would say impressive on first sight when stepped into the beautiful and romantic setting of the restaurant. Service was great and attentive. Food wise, I just loved the crispy duck breast. Rest I can’t say not good but not impressed me to come back again. I think they knew that we were very full by desert moment and told us they could pack the deserts for us to take home. That’s very attentive. I would expect more on the food quality as per the px tag.
