Girandole Park Hyatt

Girandole has reopened after its renovation, now in collaboration with Alain Ducasse, and I’m glad to say they didn’t try to reinvent it too much. The space is still beautiful, with the same great light and views that have always made breakfast here such a pleasure. I’ve been for both breakfast and lunch, and overall the food quality feels improved. Breakfast is excellent whether you go Western or Japanese, and lunch is very good, with a few fun theatrical touches. The Western breakfast buffet now has a very Parisian, conceptual approach. Instead of a traditional buffet, many items are pre-portioned in small glass containers that you take back to your table. It’s novel and quite fun, and the food is genuinely excellent. Standouts for me were the smoked salmon, lobster potato salad, homemade yogurt, and the Alain Ducasse chocolate mousse. That said, this isn’t really a “load up on protein and vegetables” kind of buffet. Portions are refined and curated, so if you’re looking for something more hearty or practical, this might not be your style. The Japanese breakfast is still delicious and, as before, takes about 15 to 20 minutes to prepare. Like the rest of the menu, it feels slightly higher quality and more refined than it used to. The only change is that you’re no longer able to help yourself to the buffet while you wait, which used to be part of the experience. I wish they offered a small amuse-bouche in the meantime. Just be aware there’s a waiting period. One small, slightly sentimental downside: they no longer offer physical newspapers. I used to enjoy reading the Japan Times at breakfast here, and I do miss that. Overall, though, it feels like an upgrade. Nearly the same beautiful room, better food, and a more polished experience without losing what made Girandole special in the first place.

Had breakfast this morning and we really enjoyed jt. Fresh blueberries and papaya were delicious. Liked the mango yogurt. We had the specialty eggs Benedict and regular both tasty. Used our globalist coupon for a mimosa and a kir royal and they were very good. Our server Asari was wonderful dinner English was excellent. The buffet has many items to chose from and the menu completed anything missing. Tea and coffees were very good

Great French restaurant The food was delicious. Service was a bit slow. Food : Bread was warm and crispy good quality French bread with delicious butter from France. Soup was ok. The pea soup was just ok. Not bad but not outstanding. I would had expect a better soup from such a high establishment. The saumon entrée was exquisite. Mix of smoke and fresh saumon and vegetable married nicely with an orange sauce. The main dish. The meat was tender and juicy. The veggies were cook to perfection. The sauce was just amazing. Dessert was very delicious. The course mouse flavour was very summery. The birthday cake was so rich I couldn’t finish my share.

Perfect place if you have something special to celebrate: Very nice atmosphere and good food! We had an amazing view over Tokyo from the window seat. Ask for these seat when making the reservation, since it gives you a different experience then when sitting „inside“. The staff was very nice and the service was fast (sometimes almost too fast such that we asked for a break before the dessert was served). The bistro menu is highly recommendable. It was cooked very well and the size of it was perfect.

Descent but overpriced European food in a nice setting. Stiff service and hidden costs gaves a sour ending. Also minus for table without window view

We had breakfast here for our stay at the hotel. The selection was good and fresh. Love the salad and yogurt.

Had breakfast there during covid so no buffet. Instead they had a breakfast menu. Way overpriced for the quality and quantity. That poor broccoli looks very lonely there for 6000¥

Place is OK. Just OK, because for the same money you can go to many other places in Tokyo and get better value. For example: brunch in New York Grill Bar or French Kitchen

Girandole has an excellent breakfast menu. We stayed at the Park Hyatt Tokyo for four days and ate here every morning. Three of the mornings we chose the breakfast buffet option and one we chose the Japanese Breakfast. All options were great. Now, if you are measuring against other Park Hyatt's, the breath of options are a bit limited on the buffet, but you can also order directly off the menu for more selections. The food is great quality and has great flavors. The service here really stands out. Everyone is so kind and friendly. The politeness knows no bounds here, and it's nice to be in such a cheery atmosphere. Lastly, the decor here is beautiful. It's elegant, but not stuffy. Also, with the restaurant being on the 41st floor, the views cannot be beat!

While it's a French restaurant, you can get Western & Japanese meals during breakfast. You can do buffet which contains Western and Japanese items, select Japanese set menu, or ala carte Western dishes as well. Another great benefit of being Hyatt Globalist here is to let you have anything you want. But if you actually do, I am 200 % sure that you'll gain 10 lbs a day! I just wanted to taste little bit of everything. The friendly server suggested I can have smaller portion of ala carte items, so I decided to have mini Belgian waffle one morning and had mini French toast another day - both were excellent, of course!

Stopping by Girandole is a beautiful affair. High up in the sky with a nice, older Hollywood look; a piano playing live with booth and table seating. The servers are super solid and the presentation of the food is solid. However, for the price you're paying, the French/Asian food comes up a bit lackluster in flavor whether being overly fishy in smell/taste or a bit bland. The best parts were the dessert and of course the views out the window.

Oh? No English review of this place? Guess I'm just going to review the restaurant Girandole then! I had their breakfast buffet here as well as their weekend dinner, which while expensive, was definitely up to standards and I can vouch for their prices. There are rave reviews for their breakfast buffet, and I am glad I also had a chance to try it out. Since it was the weekend the price was 3900 Yen for their Girandole Breakfast Buffet, but thankfully they also provided a series of delectable sides and dishes that usually would coincide with an expensive selection. Upon sitting down, the waitresses will ask what kind of eggs you would like to accommodate your breakfast. I chose two hardboiled eggs and they came out on this lovely tray. The typical coffee and tea also comes out but a the variation of coffee is astounding, from white coffee to cappuccinos to lattes, you can try them all! You get a selection of juices, morning bakeries (I MEAN A LOT), cereals, yoghurt, bircher muesli, fresh fruits, dried fruits, lots of greens, selection of cold meats, smoked salmon and a variety of cheeses! Then you have the typical American styled breakfast choices like scrambled eggs (delicious), bacon, sausage, more MEAT, and a ton more that I barely can visibly remember after eating so much! I also had their holiday weekend dinner, but to my bewildered amusement I cannot find the menu that describes the most amazing dinner I had in Japan! Regardless, this beautiful, intricate and amazing place is worth the visit!

This is one of the expensive and beautiful view restaurant, but I disappointed their service for dinner. I would like to mention the taste is really good! We have ordered the course menu which is selected for appetizer and main in advance because they said it will take a long time if we don't choose in advance. That's why I had selected all dishes in advance. However, it takes a long time to finish the course menu. It's actually more than 3 hours. It's not so busy, but I think the number of stuff is not enough. I brought my US customers, and some of them ordered a bottle of wine, some of them ordered the other drinks each. Even my customers finish the glass, nobody pour the wine or ask the additional drink. I understand the stuff is not recognized this is the business dinner. The stuff is supported enthusiastically for the couple tables. I would like to tell the stuff I understand it's easy to ask and help to Japanese couples, but they will not use this restaurant many times. However, the guy will use many times if the restaurant is preferred for the business use. Stuff's attitude is also not good. It's okay this is not expensive or kind of Izakaya, I can ensure. Again, the taste is very delicious.

We had the breakfast buffet here and never was there such a classy buffet in all the land. The view was spectacular and a sneeze guard less buffet never sounded or looked better! There's seriously a person whose job is to run around making sure the buffet looks photo ready, smoothing out the egg dishes or making sure the fruits are arranged properly. When we sat down, we received wonderful service and were immediately offered alternatives to scrambled eggs that the chef could whip up especially for us. We also got coffees -- which are fancy Japanese-style Americanos, but in my opinion better than America's for their more subtle (never harsh), earthy flavor. Was a little pricey but what do you expect? 42,000 yen will get both western and eastern breakfast delicacies (or you can order a la carte -- or get their traditional Japanese breakfast tray for the same price). The western options were: -bacon, sausage, eggs (the classiest and best looking!) -European options like meats, cheeses, breads -muesli, yogurt (some of it locally made) -lox -milks an juices -pastries On the eastern side, options are: -plain rice congee -pickled vegetables, seaweed, etc -traditional Japanese breakfast fare that appeared to come with many options for toppings

For 4200 yen breakfast buffet I was expecting quite a bit. For example, Japanese traditional breakfast you would expect natou and grilled fish at the least - no, they were absent. Needless to say, the rest was disappointing. I felt ripped off. The other lower tier hotels were much better than this. The atmosphere and scenery was good, but then again, you won't get full from atmosphere or scenery.

Great breakfast with a perfectly balanced menu of items for all different cultures. We had the Buffett with eggs, sausage, bacon, and fresh fruit.
