Personally, this is one of the top-ranked restaurants in its price range that I really enjoy.
Whenever someone is taken along, everyone gives them a generous praise.
It’s a teishiban-ya (grilled dish restaurant), but they offer creative menu courses. So, the private rooms are surprisingly nice, and it’s quite popular there.
Recently, the chef changed, and new chefs joined to bring a new style to the restaurant. The time I had there the other day was probably the best I've experienced so far.
As always, the desserts are highly rated.
This is truly something to look forward to every day, and the quality is incredible.
It’s really delicious, so even if the expectations are high, I think it’s okay.
Among numerous restaurants, this is one of the top three favorites. No matter who you bring here, everyone will be satisfied.
Compared to before, there are more private rooms available, which gives a greater sense of privacy and comfort.
Of course, it's nice to be able to have a dining area where you can talk with the chef while eating. But the private room for two people located behind the counter is also very comfortable and I really like it.
The private room with 6 seats at the back can be used for a cozy and private setting, which is quite good.
I think this is an ideal place to enjoy a leisurely meal with a companion and to engage in conversation, both in terms of the cuisine and the atmosphere.
This time, the calamaro with eggs was absolutely delicious.
Not all photos were taken.
During the meal, there was a menu item that required selection. On that day, it seemed to be fish or white asparagus.
Selected was fish dishes, but they were absolutely delicious.
Why I chose fish dishes is because Chef Tanahara here has excellent skills in grilling fish on iron plates.
Always cooked beautifully and deliciously.
It's also a selective option. The main meat dish is either a sirloin or a lamb.
If there are two or more people, we can order a mixed meal. That's why I always request a mixed meal.
Regarding the meat, it seems that maintaining a stable quality was a challenge. However, as a result of continuous efforts to improve, the food is significantly tastier than before. This is quite impressive.
To be honest, in the past, there were days when the meat was just a bit off due to the timing, but now it's always extremely delicious every time.
Both the main course and the dessert are available in a selectible option.
After thinking about it, I'm glad there are so many dishes to choose from. That's probably why I can come here again and again.
The dessert, the Basque Cheesecake, has been updated recently, but it’s still extremely delicious.
The desserts are prepared by a pastry chef who specializes in desserts. Therefore, the desserts at this restaurant are always truly delicious and very popular among women.
I'm looking forward to seeing the menu changes starting in May, so I really want to go there soon.
Personally, this is one of the top three best restaurants in Tokyo.
Of course, compared to restaurants that require a year of reservation and those with a customer average spending of around 50,000 yen, this place has its shortcomings. However, since it offers more seating options at restaurants with an average customer spending of about 20,000 yen, reservations are relatively easier to arrange. Overall, it’s actually quite convenient to use.
There are also 5 or 6 private rooms available, so the usage can vary depending on needs. The staff at the restaurant have shown great sincerity and dedication in their responses.
Recently, it seems that a chef from a Michelin-starred Japanese restaurant has joined our establishment. Combining the image of French creative grilling cuisine with Japanese flavors, the quality of the dishes has further improved.
I think it's worth visiting this place once.
December was a very difficult month to get reservations for, so in the end, we had to go at the very last minute before the end of the year.
Every two months, the menu changes, and with each update, the quality of service improves. Nowadays, the restaurant is always full, and it seems to be very popular.
It seems that many repeat customers are like me.
The seats behind the counter have become private rooms with doors. So when I go to those private rooms, I don’t encounter other customers as much, and it feels like I have more privacy.
The restaurant strives to ensure that all dishes are delicious. There isn’t a single dish that doesn’t meet the standard of being delicious.
If you don’t mind having a course meal, you can bring anyone along and they will be happy.
Every two months, the menu for the course meals changes. It's a creative way of serving steamed dishes.
Every time I visit, the quality of service improves. The convenience of using the restaurant makes it popular among people around us. In fact, everyone's reviews show that the reputation of this place has significantly improved compared to before.
The menu consists mainly of creative dishes prepared on iron plates. It's better to think of this restaurant as an iron-plated grill restaurant.
Since this year, it seems that they have become more serious in their efforts. When preparing a menu of courses, although people have different preferences, it is not until all the dishes are prepared with confidence by all the staff and deemed delicious that the course can be completed.
Due to this change, it seems that the menu will be updated only once every two months instead of regularly every month.
All the dishes were delicious, and I was satisfied. I could feel the seriousness of the service.
This segment is already translated into English. The remaining text can be translated accordingly. Here’s the final translation:
“It’s so popular that the only dessert that has become a regular item is the Basque cheesecake. I really hope you’ll try it.”
I, along with my companion, considered this cheese cake to be the most delicious one we have ever tasted in our lives.
The quality of desserts has significantly improved.
The menu shown in the photos is simply delicious.
At this price, this cuisine and this atmosphere
Truly disappointing
A restaurant that brings joy to anyone who visits it.
This month, the name of the menu was "Kisetsumei no Isshu," which really impressed me.
All the meals were prepared using ingredients from Tashiro Island. Both the materials used and the cooking methods show great care, resulting in an extremely satisfying experience.
For this price, this course is really quite exceptional.
At this price point, personally, it's considered one of the best restaurants in Tokyo.
I would like to eat here twice a month.
The location of the restaurant is also easy to find, as it is along the street. Upon entering, you will see that the counters are covered with Tanjima-style tiles.
I've never seen anything like this before; it's really stylish.
The atmosphere inside the restaurant was also very good, and the staff's service was extremely polite. We truly had a great time there.
Those who came with me were also very satisfied, and we immediately made a reservation for the next one.
Today, I truly had a wonderful time.
Taste, atmosphere, and service—everything is perfect.
Since it opened last year, every time I visit, it gets better and better.
The restaurant I like most in the area of Nishi-mabu
In another week, the menu for the course will likely change. It's a pity that I can't enjoy the current course anymore, but I'm looking forward to the new menu.
Initially, it was just one course, but it seems that there will be more opportunities to have a meal with alcoholic drinks as a quick stop.
Next year, this restaurant will probably be a difficult one to book for reservations. So I’d better go there while it’s still open now.
From here, it seems that the entrance and every corner will be further renovated, which is really exciting.
Firstly, the location is easy to find.
This is a place that everyone who spends time in the area of Nishi-mabu knows.
From the outside, there are white banners, making it easily noticeable from a distance.
Entering the entrance, immediately you find a place that's extremely stylish.
A proper handmade flower garland is hanging there, creating a magical atmosphere.
The grille on the front also looks good, and to its right is a wine cellar.
The champagne and wines are more than what one could expect.
And, above all, the scenery of the counterback is excellent.
I heard that this restaurant uses ingredients from Oshima Island. When I entered the counter, I saw that it was covered with tatami mats. This is something I've never seen before.
It's really cool, but it seems to be quite expensive.
Peeking into the background, there's a Japanese-style display terrace where you can enjoy your meal in a quiet spot. There are private rooms for two couples, as well as rooms for four or six people.
Up to 12 people can be accommodated in a private room, and a TV is also installed there.
The back half of the room also exists, so overall it’s more than expected.
The meal was better than expected, featuring dishes made with ingredients from Asahikawa Island.
Mini version of the famous Taino Island dish, Taino Burger.
There can't be anyone who gives low ratings to a dish with such a poor quality.
Acquapassa
This restaurant serves淡路鯛，非常时尚。
The soup is excellent and keeps you warm.
The yuzu adds a touch of adult flavor to the dish.
Egg Salad
It's not just a simple egg salad; when you mix it with淡路野菜 and dried olives, it becomes incredibly delicious.
The strongest grilled foie gras
Foie gras and onion purée, risotto, egg yolks
If you eat everything together, it's extremely delicious. The number one favorite dish.
A refreshing shaved ice with lemon and basil
Everyone says it's delicious.
Main Course
Yakushima Beef, Yakushima Beef Hamburger, and Yakushima Island Onion Omakaki
Shirukuya’s淡路牛肉是一款荣获神户牛和淡路牛肉双奖的肉类产品，堪称名副其实的神户牛肉，味道极其美味。
The hamburger is incredibly delicious.
シメ
Garlic Rice & Onion Soup
Steamed Rice with Koshihikari and Onion Soup
Hashi Rice & Shirukuya Special Kimchi Pot
Confused about these three choices
The onion soup made from onions from Oshima Island is definitely delicious.
The restaurant founded by Mr. Nakase, the head chef, on Oshima Island since 1985 continues to be a famous place known for its delicious kimchi pots. It seems that the taste of this dish has been passed down through generations.
Dessert
Apple Pie and Caramel Ice
Fully satisfied until the end
Drinks certainly pair well with wine, but the lemon sours made from lemons from Asahikawa Island were extremely delicious.
The owner of the restaurant, Mr. Nakase, has a gentle manner and is very particular about the cuisine and ingredients he uses. His experience of running this restaurant in Kagrasa for 8 years is evident in his approach.
The other chef, Mr. Tanahara, seems to have been the head chef at the French restaurant in Hiroko for over a decade using a duck-shaped iron plate.
The staff at the restaurant is still new to their position, so it's undeniable that they aren't fully accustomed to their duties yet. But I believe that time will help them get used to it.
If the price and atmosphere of this restaurant are maintained, it will become a highly sought-after venue within one year.
