FARO

"The chef was replaced on 1 February 2024. ‘FARO’ means ‘lighthouse’, and indeed Faro shines its light on a new era of Italian cuisine in Ginza, illuminating the richness of Japan’s topography and culture. Visiting food-producing regions and workshops where serving vessels are made enables the chef to reflect the passions of farmers and artisans in his fare. The sensibilities of the chef and his pâtissière also reside in the vegan set menu influenced by shojin-ryori, the vegetarian cuisine of Buddhist monks." - Michelin Inspector

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!

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!

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!

Service is extremely attentive and kind. The house bread was probably my favorite! Steak was cooked perfectly. I enjoyed the 3 different types of desserts. there were a few points of certain dishes that were not to my taste, however overall good dining experience with a great view.

The final dessert of 21 different flowers and herbs is soooo unique that it’s worth going here at least once in a lifetime. It’s ITALIAN JAPANESE food. You may find some other place that tastes better but this place is best in location, ambience, service and everything..

Thank you to receiving us. Very pretentious as always when restaurant has a 1 ⭐️. Each of meal includes a lot of different ingredients but all of them don’t give any emotion. How they cooked there is no question but result is uninteresting. Service is very polite and correct but food was just …. Ok. Even photos I took just for 2last meal, at least flowers were little bit surprising. Sorry.

The dessert was the best thing (especially the rice one). A It was my birthday and the staff prepared a card and a special little cake for me. An experience that I would love to live again. Vegan and non-vegan menu I suggest to not eat or drink anything else after the flower tart. You want that flavour to stay as long as possible

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.
