Located in Ginza on the sixth floor of a tower block just from the corner of IWC and dolce and Gabbana this one Michelin star Japanese restaurant has a chef table style dining of eight or 10 courses around the chef table with a number of high table seating behind the chef‘s table. We opted for the... course with paired wine 4 courses for ¥3,300. The food was excellent the first course of appetiser being a sesame cube looking very similar look to a tofu with wasabi on the top and soy sauce which is beautifully balanced and very delicate followed by the next course which was the almond fish row on top of rice. The rice had Yuzu flavouring in it which made it rather nice and citrusy with the saltiness of the salmon roll another very beautiful balanced dish. To accompany the two dishes was a glass of champagne from the paired alcohol selection this was followed by the third dish of a fig in starched sake sauce and this was packed with a Kokuryu saki which was beautifully matched with the dish. the saki was slightly sweet which accompanied the sweetness of the fig and the start sauce was a lovely little soup of the end. This is followed by flounders( white fish) which was a white fish which we found rather chewy and this was a company with Three pieces of sea urchin and a nori seaweed chilli and a small salad the highlight of the dish was definitely the sea urchin rather than the fish The next dish was the Trio of vegetarian main which was the tempura Matsutake. Mushroom with a salad of persimmons and apple which was the palate cleaner and the egg plant and Delaware grapes which were pickles and tasted almost like cabbage. Nice dish, interesting taste and went well with a beautiful white wine Chardonnay from France. The mains of black beef wagyu with red miso sauce with a few other condiments of ginkgo nuts was good but was not the best dish. This was followed by a filler of rice with 5 types of mushroom and seaweed soup with Yuba which is a tofu and was very delicious. This was companies by a blend of three grape red wine from New Zealand for the last two courses above. The desert was ice shaving with 6 types of flavouring: mango, ginger, condensed milk, matcha, red bean paste and green tea. Excellent combination of different flavour sorbet. Reminded me of ice kacang or ABC in Malaysia. And finally another beautiful desert of Karintou Manju, a deep fried bun of bean paste - beautiful, had an extra sake with this. They then rolled out a birthday macaroons of Yuzu with a candle for the birthday with a poloroid photo. Service was amazing. An absolutely perfect meal! Deserving of more than one Michelin star!

There were a lot of positives about this restaurant, mainly the service and general ambience but overall we left with something of a sense of disappointment. We chose the 10 course menu which seemed to focus more on fish than the expected vegetables. We had raw fish, shell fish, barbecued fish… All ...were well prepared but lacking any “wow” factor you anticipate at a Michelin star restaurant. This was even more starkly illustrated by the heralded vegetable course which included some beautiful looking specimens. Sadly though their natural flavour was removed by poaching in dashi or some other pickling. The evening passed quickly, but the disappointment will last longer.

An incredible experience of food and culture. I had a hell of a time. Each dish was more interesting than the last. The flavors were diverse and interesting and the whole time it was just an eye opening, rich experience. The staff were very accommodating and professional. I'm not a dining "snob" I w...ould be as a happy in a noodle shop as a fine establishment. It was just an incredible and unforgettable time.

The restaurant is located in the 6-8th floor in a building in Ginza. We ate on floor 6 which is an open kitchen the other floor are private rooms. The restaurant offers different kaiseki menus. We went on the Kiwani one. We arrived early so we waited atthe extremely nice bar on the 7th floor. Highl...y recommend. The beef in the beef dish was one of the best I have ever had. The tofu was excellent and this was my first time to eat soft shell turtle. The 3 types of Sake we had went very well with the food. It was very difficult to make reservation, we had to ask our hotel reception to make it. But once you are there they are the nicest people. The main waitress knew very good English and once they heard it is my birthday they even produced a birthday plate with happy birthday written tin cream in Hebrew. Truly amazing. It is expensive but it worth it
