This was our first Michelin Star experience in our lives and I can say it was an experience of a lifetime. The staff (especially Jenie) was so educated on everything from the dishware to the regions of Tokyo where the truffles were harvested and we were very impressed. The chef has been in business for 17 years and you could believe it his his life passion. He was so happy to have us and we took pictures with him at the end. I hope to be back one day. Absolutely stellar experience.
Outstanding experience last night, both in terms of the quality and variety of different dishes but also the service. All the staff were helpful, professional, knowledgeable and friendly. If you want to eat Kobe beef in Ginza come here. We loved it ❤️.
This nine courses of Wagyu dinner is definitely a special occasion treat. All were delicious, although I couldn’t wrap my head around the tongue. I did taste it, and it was good, I just didn’t want to eat tongue. Everything else was spectacular. And this is the friendliest chef in Japan. He engaged with diners throughout the evening, autographed our menus and took photos with us. His personality made the evening even more special. I highly recommend.
Unbelievable wagyu omakase. Served in a cosy 8 seat dining room. Warm atmosphere that was not uptight like some of the other high end restaurante in Tokyo. Chef Haruka Katayanagi was engaging and dedicated. Sublime.
