Warayakiya Akasaka

This was the best meal we had in Tokyo. The straw grill is used to cook to perfection. We had bonito fish and seaweed tempura.

Really good place to eat in. Excellent food and as they’re cooking it right under your eyes then it’s fun to watch as well. Cooked Camembert was one to die for

I am in such a state of shock! After six years of living in Tokyo, I can finally say I had a bad meal. It was the worst dinner I've had in Japan. I often walk by this restaurant and think it looks fun. It is a cute place and looks lively, however, don't be fooled. The food tastes horrible. On ...top of the taste, the service was not that good. They were out of most of their menu items. The beef was tough and lacked flavor. The chicken and bonito tasted like the smoked grass. I can't imagine craving that smokey taste. It was not a good smoked flavor. The taste was simply wrong. The best thing about the meal was the sake and the prices were not that bad.

Stumbled across this restaurant and so pleased we did. If you sit at the bar you can watch the cooks prepare your meals which in some instances involves burning hay to impart a smoky flavour to the dish. This was the case for the wagyu beef we had which melted in the mouth, but the star dish was t...he lightly seared bonito. Lightly seared and with a smoky flavour these rare nuggets were just so delicious. None of the other dishes we had disappointed and the service was prompt and efficient. Sadly we found this restaurant on our last night as we would have gone back for sure. Price wise its probably mid range, but well worth it.

What an amazing experience ! Everything is perfect and extremely tasty ! A must to try ! Tuna and seared mackerel are probably the best
