Restaurants near Kinza Nakameguro

One of the best meals I’ve ever had and I’ve eaten at 1-3 star Michelin restaurants, at Four Seasons restaurants over the past 25+ years and many other restaurants, bistros, cafes and holes-in-the-wall along the way. This is by far the best sushi/sashimi/sake experiences I’ve ever had and in the top 3 meals I’ve ever had. Dinner was our last night in Tokyo, after 18 days in Asia. It was for me and my son (23). Small, intimate restaurant (maybe 20 seats?!). We sat at the counter and ordered the tasting menu with sake tasting/pairing. Each course was better than the next. The hospitality was inviting and the service was impeccable. The room was discreet. I cannot speak more highly about this dining experience. Run, don’t walk. Make it a stop every time you go to Tokyo. It’s that good. Thank you to the team for a very special night.

Our family had an amazing dining experience here. Come hungry because there will be plenty to eat. We couldn’t even finish everything. The pace of the meal was perfect and every bite was memorable. The Omi beef wagyu was tender and melt in your mouth. Don’t miss this restaurant when you visit Tokyo.

Very expensive, but then its Kobe Steak. Spartan private cubicle each, excellent service. Ordered al la cart- 400g ribeye about$350……ordered nigiri , one rice, one fries , 3 glasses wine….. bill about$500 We felt the wine was a small amount, and the “veg “ that we paid extra for was absurdly small.. It was all about the experience of eating Kobe steak and we loved it as it was a very special occasion. 

So good. Chef was professional and nice and food was incredible.

It was much more ambitious a restaurant than we expected, but the owners could not have been more welcoming -- we speak no Japanese, so they communicated using translations on their phones. We also did not expect a fixed-price menu, so they adjusted the number of courses to meet our budget. Sake was excellent, and the food was sensational. We had many great tastes, but the best may have been the tempura uni in a shiso leaf and the duck with mustard seeds and asparagus.
