BLT STEAK ROPPONGI

Steak House BLT restaurant attached to the Villa Fountaine Royal Hotel Rappongi and quite good..negatives: white wine by the glass at 2,000JPY (16USD) barely covers the bottom of the wine glass..only specialty bottles of beer at 1,500JPY (12USD) i.e. no Kirin or Sapporo common beers...the onion ring...s were excellent..hamburger comes with French Fries, be sure to make a reservation as it can be fully booked.

BLT is not only know as an amazing steak restaurant but also the home of the American popover served fresh and hot to the table upon arrival. So proud of it they had a dedicated instagram page and give you the recipient on a little card should you fall in love and be inspired to cook them at home.... It’s engrained in the experience wherever I’ve visited BLT in the world. Unfortunately and shockingly. This restaurant cutting corners or being lazy cooked them by day and simply heats them up at night loosing all that brand magic. I can’t tell if this is an isolated restaurant or a sign of a global brand in decline but it was disappointing. Besides small mistakes like the wine being poured without tasting the steaks are lovely coming out on a cast iron skillet. I do find you need to eat quickly as the hot cast iron has two functions. It keeps your steak warm but also continues to cook your steak so if your slow cooker your medium rare tastes lovely on the first few bites but the last bites are medium. I find myself more cautious before choosing BLT again and I most definitely will give Japan BLT a pass until they bring back the brand experience. .

A fabulous meal! Our last night in Tokyo and we fancied something international. Staff were fantastic. Our steaks were amazing! The bread was so nice that we took the recipe to try at home - never done that before. We didn’t need the desserts but couldn’t resist - also delicious. Far exceeded our ex...pectations, and highly recommend a visit. When we revisit Tokyo, we will define return for another meal. We asked about the best place to get a taxi on leaving, and they accompanied us outside to locate a taxi for us. Service definitely above and beyond!

Very nice restaurant. Nice decor and friendly service . The beef was amazing and the starter bread was too. I went by myself on a friend's recommendation. It was a very comfirtable environment for a solo traveler; even though most of the guest were couples or business types. I did not feel out of p...lace at all. It was very welcoming. The food was amazing. Can be a bit pricey, but for the quality and environment, i found it to be fair. I woukd recommend this place if you want a good beef dinner.

I never actually got to eat here. After a concert nearby, I dropped in at around 9.40 pm to see if I could grab a bite. The restaurant is next door to the hotel in which I was staying. Google Maps indicated that the place was open till 23.00 so plenty of time for a quick meal. But it was not to be. ...The staff member I encountered was decidedly and weirdly ambivalent about whether the restaurant was still open or already closed, still serving or not. There were still patrons in the restaurant so it wasn’t like they were shutting down. It was just peculiar that the man couldn’t definitively say “sorry, we’re closed”. He eventually said they closed at 21.30 which seemed somewhat early to be closing…I know the pandemic has disrupted restaurant operations but I got the distinct feeling that the restaurant simply didn’t want to accommodate a solo foreigner even if there was a lot of time before they actually closed. I went elsewhere and on my return walk past this place about 40 minutes later, I saw a customer still sitting at the bar and several coats still hung by the door. I could have been in and out in less than half an hour…Tant pis, as the French say!
