Faro

We loved Faro! We came for a full course lunch menu, the restaurant is beautiful and the team was friendly and pleasant. We loved the diverse courses, tastes were very fresh and delicate. The bread and butter were also amazing! We even got the special moss cake for our anniversary that was gorgeous!

It is one of the best Michelin Star restaurant we have ever been. Perfect technique, best food quality, beautiful dishes and delicious flavours. Service was incredible and the make you feel like at home since the beginning of the experience. This experience has created unforgettable moments for me and my husband.

I am not vegan, but out of curiosity. I tried their vegan menu. Every course beautifully presented. However they are either too salty or shockingly sour ⚡️ A heavy-handed use of salt that masked any subtlety the ingredients may have had.😢 Environment is quite relaxing and service is perfect, but I can’t find any course I enjoy. The tea and coffee at the end of meal is charged separately, they should note me beforehand.

I went to a few course/set menu restaurants in Ginza and all were hopeless ripoffs with no flavor. I decided to try one more here at Faro since I saw it was atop Shiseido and on the Time Out recommended list and it did not disappoint. Each dish was a work of art served on special pottery plating from different regions in Japan. Every detail down to the cutlery elevated the entire meal. Even the bread…. The white miso butter was so light and tasty and the Sicilian olive oil was delicious. If you book here I highly recommend the set course which includes wagyu beef. Every dish was terrific as was the service. Be sure to book in advance

Wish I could give 4.5 stars; it was good, but a bit stiff/austere of an environment and the food didn’t quite hit the mark as far as overall taste. For example; the flower tart was good and fun but a bit too sweet. Birthday dessert was very nice with a card signed by everyone!

Every dish was beautiful and delicious! The desserts were a bit more beautiful than tasty, but still a wonderful experience. They had great vegan options and were able to make accommodations for certain allergies. The staff was top notch, I felt like everytime I turned my head someone was at the table filling up our waters. A wonderful fine dining experience in Tokyo!

I lived in Italy, and was not expecting the food to be this extraordinary! Even the sauce for the pasta, had me wishing for more. The setting was so lovely as well. The service was top notch, yet made me feel comfortable.

Absolutely exceeded my expectations , the food and service were both exceptional. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented, creating a truly memorable dining experience. The staff were attentive and warm, adding to the overall charm of the evening. I would love to return next time I’m in Tokyo. Highly recommended!

My husband and I wanted to celebrate the last night of our honeymoon in Japan with a special dinner, and our experience at Faro was exceptional in every way. Living in Washington DC, we are no strangers to fine dining, and this was probably one of the best meals we've had in years. From the start it was evident that the service at Faro was fantastic. An Italian gentleman (Alessio, I think?) explained every course in detail and with wit and friendliness. The timing of the courses was also perfect - at no point did we feel rushed, but they kept things moving enough that the meal did not drag either. The food was, of course, amazing. I ordered the vegan menu while my husband had the standard menu including meat. I found just about every course on the vegan menu to be really excellent in both taste and presentation - more than once I realized I was scraping the bottom of the plate a bit too loudly to get every last bite! A particular standout was the pasta - my husband and I agreed that each of our pasta dishes was the best pasta we'd ever had. It tasted so fresh in a way I'd never experienced before. The "rice inspiration" dessert - basically rice 6 ways - was also terrific and very unique. And of course, the bread was excellent and in particular the butter, which was whipped and slightly fermented. My husband is not a butter person but he was obsessed with it - exact quote: "I could eat this for the rest of my life." My husband really enjoyed the standard menu as well - the pork pasta and the Hokkaido beef were particular standouts for him.

Found this hidden gem in an enormous list of Michelin restaurants in Tokyo. I'm so glad I did because this place was one of the best restaurants we've been to during our trip. It was our last meal in Japan few hours before our flight. We had asked the staff that we had a flight to catch and they were very attentive and kind. We had very high expectations as we had best Michelin restaurant kaiseki for almost every single meal during the entirety of our trip. However this place really blew our minds. Everything was cooked to perfection and plating was absolutely beautiful. I wish we spoke better Japanese so that we could talk to the chef and server about the dishes. I wonder if the meal was comforting due to the fact that the flavors were closer to familiar.. Yet so refined and appetizing! We wanted seconds for every dish in the course. I would highly recommend this place and I wouldn't hesitate one bit to come back to dine here again.
