House

If you were looking for Provence in the middle of Tokyo, this is it. The attentive service and the relaxing ambiance on their own make you want to come back again and again. But the food and the level of preparation take this place to the next level. Flavors flavors flavors—such a memorable tasting menu that you can taste the chef’s inventiveness and dedication. Top notch.

A fantastic casual dining experience with Japanese seasonal food ingredients catered with a French twist. Superb presentation and great taste. My dinner companion rated the July menu highly.

If I could summarize our experience at House in one word, it would be “divine.” From the moment we stepped into the restaurant, the antique charm enveloped us like a warm embrace. The open kitchen not only added to the spaciousness but also infused the air with tantalizing aromas, setting the stage for a culinary journey like no other. Each dish on the tasting menu was a masterpiece, showcasing the brilliance of Japanese ingredients through the lens of French culinary techniques. The Apple & Black Radish Buckwheat Tart was a delightful start, followed by the perfectly seared Squid with Cauliflower & Karasumi, which left us craving for more. The Shibuya Mozzarella Burrata with Strawberry & Tomato was a symphony of flavors, while the Savoy Cabbage & Prosciutto Pot-au-feu with Truffle transported us to gastronomic bliss. For the main course, the Flounder Fricassee with Engawa Fin paste & Sauce Reduction was a revelation, and the Char-grilled Organic Lamb with Roasted Baby Onion & Green Paste was nothing short of exceptional. The choice of grains was a thoughtful touch, allowing us to tailor our dining experience to perfection. As if that wasn’t enough, the Grilled Mackerel Pilaf with Myoga & Sansho Pepper Sauce and the Teriyaki Foie Gras Pilaf with Shibazuke & Green Onion elevated our taste buds to new heights, leaving us in awe of the culinary prowess of the chefs. To top it all off, the Organic Blood Orange Chiboust dessert was a sweet conclusion to an unforgettable meal, leaving us with memories that will linger long after the last bite. In essence, House is more than just a restaurant; it’s a culinary sanctuary where Japanese ingredients shine bright, and every dish tells a story of passion and craftsmanship. If you’re looking for an extraordinary dining experience in Tokyo, look no further than House.

Perfectly curated course menu. Everything is very balanced, couldn’t describe it perfectly but it has complex yet simple tastes. One of the main dish, roasted duck breast with persimmons jam and baby yam was particularly delicious!

Came here for a BD dinner , private room is very nice . I can see each dishes was prepared with passion and creativity. The food is not really French but more of fusion food . The chef are very busy preparing food so don’t expect the Japanese Omodenashi service. It is highly value for money .

We came to this restaurant for the first time, I found it randomly looking for a new place to try on Google. It was simply amazing! The food is excellent, the products are very fresh, the whole menu and its tastes are wonderful. The service is perfect as well. It suits a friends time and it is perfect for a nice couple moment. We'll be back for sure, I highly recommend.

The food was good but the service much to be desired. We arrived a little early for our reservation and were seated, but the waiter basically left us sitting there with no explanation of the menu and didn't try to take our order for over 20 minutes. (He only came when I flagged him down.) It seems like this place has completely shifted to a tasting menu format instead of an a la carte format (maybe post-COVID?). The tasting menu was very filling and everything was good, but I was a little bit disappointed because I went in with the expectation that there was also an a la carte option.

Very nice restaurant and a reasonable price point. Course menu only. Good was generally quite good, flavors were not shocking, but there were some interesting and creative mixtures thrown in there (you can see the menu attached). For example burrata with crispy strawberry net. They unfortunately burnt the dessert (galette de rois) and the galette itself was basically just pie crust with no substantial filling. The ice cream was nice though, and we were too full by then anyway. Portions were surprisingly large and reasonable for the number of courses. I left very full. Ambiance is nice, and would be a romantic and quiet bistro. However they had some very very weird music playing that did NOT match the ambiance AT ALL. It was like some weird electronic remix of 70s synth reminiscent of music from a weird 70s science fiction movie, like Dune or the Star Wars cantina. (The music is Mr Bort by FORQ in case you're wondering). It was memorable 😂

"HOUSE" is a nicely hidden place in the Nishiazabu area, to which you'd go for a "chilaxing" dinner. It's a French bistro place so the atmosphere and dishes are casual enough to enjoy with casual clothes, and as most of the time it seems to be filled with 30+ y/o people, it doesn't get too noisy or party-ish. Good place for adults. The only downside would be the portion of their dishes. It's definitely high quality but the portion is not that big, so if you go with people who eat a lot, you may end up paying a bit more than expected (or with those who drink a lot). They have a good list of wines too.
