Dinner ¥20,000–29,999Closed Mondays, Tuesdays, and SundaysBook online: TableCheck
Its dinner budget on Tabelog (¥20,000–29,999) is lower than that of 24% of the high-end restaurants in Tokyo in this guide. Its record: a listing without a star in the Michelin Guide 2026. From abroad it can be booked online in English on TableCheck and OMAKASE. Good for a seat at the counter, a less expensive lunch (from ¥15,000, 25% below its dinner budget), and dining alone (Tabelog's users recommend it for one).
