I had the dinner course featured in the attached screenshot. Whilst the atmosphere/room and environment were lovely and elegant the food was simply not good I'm afraid and a massive let down - and the high price of it all made it sting more. The crab soup had a piece of crab shell inside of it and I only found that out after biting into it. The soba noodle course felt lazy, it was accompanied with a cup of soy sauce and peanut sauce and wasn't very pleasant. The shrimp in the sashimi was incredibly slimy and still had the digestive tract in place and not removed - I've had shrimp sashimi in a lot of places - and I've never had my shrimp be slimy before, it was extremely unpleasant and left a terrible aftertaste. The steak was decent and the best thing from the course but they didn't remove any of the seeds from the peppers making the pepper incredibly bitter. The dessert is quite literally just some cubes of watermelon in a bowl (and a cup of Japanese tea) which felt very lazy considering the premium you're paying. The hospitality was okay, I could see that they struggled to communicate with me, but they did their best which I appreciated. The environment again was the redeeming factor of this place, however the food was simply not up to standard and some of the courses felt lazy, I wouldn't recommend this place to someone.
Came here for dinner. Restaurant is downstairs. Really nice atmosphere, including a little pond and private rooms. The food and service were both excellent.
Just a one-minute walk from Roppongi Crossing, this hidden spot surrounded by seasonal flowers offers one of the best tonkatsu and wagyu katsu experiences I’ve ever had in Japan. I tried the Yamato Pork Loin Katsu (180g, ¥2,500) — award-winning pork with amazing juiciness and crispiness — and the Japanese Beef Sirloin Rare Katsu (100g, ¥3,500), perfectly tender and full of flavor. Both came with seasonal appetizers and well-crafted condiments. The setting is calm and elegant, but the prices are surprisingly reasonable for the quality. Definitely one of the most memorable and worth-it lunch sets in Tokyo. Highly recommended if you’re around Roppongi!
