THE UPPER

Booked the top dinner course on the app .. and it was so worth it. The rain couldn’t ruin the night with that gorgeous Marunouchi view and amazing food. Still thinking about this dessert… but totally forgot what it was called.

Great Service, menu and atmosphere, for what feels like an authentic French restaurant. From staff's service to great portions and tasty food, it just really hits all the right spots. Above expectations, thanks for making this dinner a memorable experience. Looking forward to the next time !

🍽️✨ Had an amazing dining experience at "THE UPPER" in Tokyo! ✨🍽️ Located in Tokyo Marunouchi area, "THE UPPER" is renowned for its unique culinary style and top-notch service. Recently visited this restaurant and was impressed by its creativity and depth of flavors. From the seafood platter to the charcuterie assortment, escargot Burgundy style, 1000g bone-in short rib, and finishing with Tokyo Mont Blanc, every dish was exceptional! The ambiance was cozy, and the service was outstanding! Can't wait for the next visit! #THEUPPER #Tokyo #ExquisiteCuisine #TopNotchService

The Upper - What an absolute DOWNER Took som friends to the Upper for dinner last night. It turned out to be an absolute downer and a circus of lowest class. Booked weeks in advance. 6 people in total. It took 45 minutes for the pre-dinner drinks to arrive! Well, that is 5 out of the 6. One took even longer. The menu, the staff, and my ordering clearly delineated starters from main cause. Still a main arrived before the starters. Well, not all starters got to the table. Hot got cold and cold got soggy. I tried twice to offer some guidance on “starters first” then “mains” but that had no impact on the ongoing circus. It took the waitress 10 minutes to uncork a bottle of wine, during which time, we were ready with first aid kit. Two plates of French Fries, which presumably were intended for the steak, turned up before and during the prolonged starter session. Needless to say - totally cold and soggy by the time any meat landed on the table. Confusion was total. Food quality was that of a standard Australian or European pub. Nothing to write home about. Dishes came randomly, well not all. We finally gave up, I myself had half a starter then I lost my interest in the dinner at this circus. A “manager” turned up with a barrage of excuses, some contradicting them of the wait staff. I had to advise him not to keep on discussing at the table. We had a few cocktails and I refused to pay for the food, of which non were served in a manner that it could be even vaguely enjoyed. How this establishment could hold a Michelin Star escapes my understanding. Only thing that fitted with the Michelin Star criteria was that the restrooms were spotless. If you are thinking of going here - don’t. You will find plenty of places with better food, service and atmosphere. Try a sushi train or some pub food.

We ordered the same steak, but the woman was given a smaller piece and the man a larger piece.

Really nice french restaurant with a great service. We took a la carte as the daily menu did not look very interesting. Portions are big, and they taste like France ! Nice cassoulet and quenelle. It is pretty uncommon to find such dishes at this relatively cheap price in Tokyo. I recommend.

Great place I like the contract of the dinning with the office view next building. Feel strange but unique, good service

Real French brasserie among sky scrappers, good house music and decent menu, quality is satisfactory 👌🏻 i wish we could be on the terrace (on a sunny day)
