GANKO Wakayamarokusanen

Came here for a kaiseki dinner. Placed in a spacious, beautifully curated garden everything at this place was outstanding. The dishes were small but tasty, covering a panorama of taste and sight. Excellent sake. Will come back.

Many private rooms, robots in the hallway deliver the food from the kitchen to the servers. The many course meal was really very good. Slivers of fugu skin a real treat, and the yellowtail (buri) in winter season was unbeatable. Ask for a tour of the garden, which is quite impressive. House was buil...t by a wealthy stock broker, later occupied by the US Army post-war before becoming a restaurant.

Traveling through Wakayama, we searched for great Japanese restaurants for a celebration meal and this Ganko Wakayama Rokusanen pops up highly recommended. And so we ventured to find it. Being unfamiliar with the roads at night we circled a bit till we came upon a beautifully manicure bonsai garden ...entrance. We strolled in some 20m and found the restaurant nestled within this charming traditional garden. It was a pity we came at night; I am sure it’s beautiful in the day. We were greeted by the restaurant manager who provided us with great service to our party of 6; we were ushered into a private room. The Japanese food is very good and value for money; and great service too. We came back with again 2 nights later with a party of 10. This time we were given a different room. I then realized there were many individual private rooms. The Japanese food was still very good!! We did call ahead to make reservations and when we arrived, the room was all laid out waiting for us. Highly recommended for great food n service and bonus charming garden around. Best make reservations.
