"Kyoto cuisine has left its mark on chef Shimon Takahara. Like his father before him, he apprenticed as a chef in Kyoto, devoting himself to his gastronomical studies. Guided by the teachings of his mentor, Takahara dedicates his heart and soul to creating dishes that offer a sense of the seasons and reverberate in the senses. Each day’s appetiser, prepared from what is most seasonal, shows this devotion. In spring, expect dishes laden with the colours and aromas of daily variations such as bamboo shoots and asparagus." - Michelin Inspector
What an amazing and unreal dining experience! Every dish is hand made and plated in front of you. The flavors of every dish are unreal. You will leave knowing this is one of the most incredible meals you will ever have the chance of experiencing. Cannot recommend dining here enough!

Absolutely incredible experience. So much care is taken in every dish that we had. The quality was incredible. It was a very nice family experience and I highly recommend it for anyone looking for ultra high quality Japanese cuisine. Seasonal dishes. Just amazing. We all had a great time and I hope we can come back again soon.

An exception dining experience. We visited for dinner on the last night of our holiday and it was a brilliant way to end it.
The chef selected out a tasting menu for us including some additional off menu dishes for us to try!
Some of the best food we had in Japan, and a truly memorable experience.

This was just the most well presented and refined meal we’ve had during our week holiday in Japan. It was a set lunch menus with a dessert. All very Japanese and tasty. Me and my two teenagers walked from Ginza and crossed a few bridges and passed trough blocks of residential houses that we wouldn’t have seen otherwise. When we came to the adress we first passed by it, as it is humble from the outside … but sober and clean on the inside. The chef is immensely skilled and sympathetic. He served us in the only private room and waved us off when leaving. Thank you very much!

The Bento was so delicious, a small and cosy place run by the excellent chef Shimon. My favourite place to eat in Tokyo.
