Amarantos

Very delicate and light style. Chef Yukari was really amazing ,whipping up all these dishes by herself for just us two (head chef was not in) . No other kitchen staffs helping since we were the only guests dining that night. Lucky! Irago wagyu stole the show tonight. It was so soft! Turnip consomme was also one of our favorites. The savory basil gruyere chiffon cake, savory madeleine bread, and lemon bread were all very very delicious with the smoked butter. We even got 2 whole chiffon cakes as souvenier!

My first experience at Amarantos was serendipitous as it happened to be their last day at the current address. From the room setup (efficiency and thoughtfulness) to the selection of tableware, one could see the team's dedication. The wine pairing was both intriguing and high-quality, catering to special requests from guests. Overall, the service was exceptionally attentive. Moving on to the highlight – the food. The most delightful surprise was the texture of the chiffon-cakish bread, a unique accompaniment that was surprisingly well-balanced and the standout of the evening. Following that, the Turnip Consomme was a wow as well, a clear and rich soup extracted entirely from turnips, offering purity and depth of flavor. Lastly, the main course of the day, as someone who isn't typically a fan of duck, this was arguably one of the most outstanding duck dishes I've ever had. The balance of texture and flavor was exceptional. Looking forward to the new location in Ginza.

Elegant serving, amazing taste, perfect size of the course. Bread is the best I ever tried at any restaurants. Also the pork is beyond the expectations! The chef used to work for Ritz and now running this restaurant, which worth 3 stars or more.

My husband and I had an exceptional dining experience at Amarantos. The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and the service was incredibly friendly and attentive. The desserts were divine, and both the main dishes, especially the fish and beef, were prepared to perfection. Each dish was a true culinary masterpiece. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for top-quality food and a wonderful dining atmosphere.

Food was amazing and the service was phenomenal. Had the dinner omakase set along with recommended pairing wines by the staff which led to an enjoyable experience. Would definitely come here again. The staff speaks English fluently and were very accommodating.

Today, I had the pleasure of dining at Amarantos. From the moment I stepped into the newly designed place, I was struck by the elegant blend of modern sophistication and classical warmth—a nod to the restaurant’s name, derived from the Greek word for the amaranthus flower, symbolizing renewal and permanence. The intimate setting, with its cozy counter seating for eight, creates a welcoming yet exclusive atmosphere. The interior, a harmonious fusion of French elegance and Japanese sensibility, set the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. The staff, fluent in English and exceptionally attentive, made me feel right at home, with Chef himself occasionally greeting guests, adding a personal touch to the evening. I opted for the tasting menu, which showcased Chef’s mastery. Each dish was a work of art, balancing carefully selected seasonal ingredients with innovative techniques. The wine pairing, featuring a curated selection of red / white / orange / rose wines and champagnes, complemented each course beautifully, with the staff accommodating special requests with ease. The smoked butter, a highlight mentioned in other reviews, was an unforgettable touch that elevated the bread course to something truly special. The tableware and silverware were of exceptional quality, reflecting the restaurant’s attention to detail in every aspect. What sets Amarantos apart is its ability to blend French culinary tradition with a Japanese appreciation for seasonality and precision. The menu, which changes to reflect the freshest ingredients, ensured that every bite felt like a celebration of the moment. The counter seating offered a front-row view of the chefs’ meticulous work, adding an element of theater to the dining experience. In conclusion, Amarantos delivered a culinary masterpiece. For anyone seeking an exceptional French dining experience in Tokyo, this is a must-visit. I can’t wait to return to see how the menu evolves with the seasons!

Amazing restaurant. So glad we chose this for our last night in Tokyo and our anniversary dinner! The food is a true experience and every dish was brilliant. As Australian visitors with limited Japanese language skills they went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and explain each dish and each wine. Our special picture at the end is something we will cherish forever. Thank you so much 💓

One of our best Michelin star experience so far. Cosy and intimate restaurant. Wonderful presentation and great taste of all plats. The service was also perfect. Thank you to the all team for the amazing dining experience.
