One of the best service I ever got in Japan. Staff is very polite and knowledgeable and speak good English. Food is fantastic and appearance is visually appealing. Only problem was that despite quite high price the portion was small.

Old-fashioned japanese-style French restaurant: the food isn't all that great, the bread terrible, service quality uneven and very much over-priced. Better alternatives in Tokyo (at this price range).

15年以上ぶりに行ったが、昔の方が美味しい。

▪️グジェール
→普通。

▪️フォアグラのフラントリュフ添え
→やや塩強いがトリュフの香りは良い、フォアグラ、卵感は弱い。

▪️イカのバーニャカウダソース
→1番美味しかった。塩気、うまみ、苦味、甘みのバランスが良かった。

▪️牡蠣のグラティネ
→サバイヨン風のソースをグラタン仕立て。
好きなタイプの料理ですが、牡蠣自体のクオリティがやや低い。

▪️ヒラメのポアレブールブラン
→美味しくない。魚の質も悪く、ポアレなのに皮目フニャフニャ、ブールブランソースにハーブや野菜でリッチ感を出そうとしているが、ソースが少なすぎる。

▪️蝦夷鹿シンタマのロティソースポアブラード
→肉はしっとりしていたが、生蝦夷鹿にしては思いの外、血の感じが弱く物足りない。野菜はたっぷりでよいが、ローストした胡桃が多すぎる。ポアブラードソースは魚同様量が少なすぎる。野菜にソースが合わさり少なくなり、胡桃が強すぎてソースが物足りなく感じ、ソース本来のクオリティを下げている。要はアシェット全体のバランスが悪い。

▪️イチゴのコンポジョンソン
→ビストロのデザートレベル

▪️リンゴのタルトフランベバニラアイス添え
→美味しい。リンゴの酸味、タルトの香ばしさ、バニラアイスの甘み香り、バニラアイス美味しい。

味は物足りない評価となりましたが、1番レジトランとしてダメな部分は、

とにかく皿とグラスが汚い。

皿は指紋と水垢だらけ、グラスは拭いていない為に水垢がつき、グラスはメンテナンスしてないから曇っている。

あとは飲み切っていないグラスを下げるのもダメです。

値段は決して高くないですが、安くもないので最低限レストランクオリティのサービスとアトモスフィアは保ってほしい。

料理は価格と立地を考えれば、十分な気もしますが、また行きたいかと言われたら足は遠のく結果となったような気がします。

I went there for the first time in over 15 years, and it was even more delicious than before.

▪️Gougères
→Normal.

▪️Foie gras with flan truffle
→It's a little salty, but the truffle scent is good, and the foie gras and egg flavor are weak.

▪️Squid with bagna cauda sauce
→It was the most delicious. It had a good balance of saltiness, umami, bitterness, and sweetness.

▪️Oyster gratine
→Sabayon-style sauce made into gratin.
It's my favorite type of dish, but the quality of the oysters themselves is a little low.

▪️Poire beurre blanc of flounder
→It's not delicious. The quality of the fish was poor, the skin was squishy even though it was boiled, and the beurre blanc sauce was trying to give it a rich feel with herbs and vegetables, but there was too little sauce.

▪️Ezo deer Shintama roti sauce spore brad
→The meat was moist, but unexpectedly for a raw Ezo deer, the blood was weak and unsatisfying. Plenty of vegetables is good, but there are too many roasted walnuts. Like the fish, the amount of Pouredard sauce was too small. The sauce doesn't mix well with the vegetables, and the walnuts are too strong, making the sauce feel unsatisfying, lowering the original quality of the sauce. In short, Hachette's overall balance is poor.

▪️Strawberry Compo Johnson
→ Bistro dessert level

▪️Apple tart flambe with vanilla ice cream
→It's delicious. The sourness of the apple, the aroma of the tart, the sweetness of the vanilla ice cream, the vanilla ice cream is delicious.

Although the taste was unsatisfactory, the biggest drawback as a cashier restaurant is:

Anyway, the plates and glasses are dirty.

The plates are full of fingerprints and water stains, the glasses have water stains because they haven't been wiped, and the glasses are cloudy because they haven't been maintained.

Also, don't lower the glass that you haven't finished drinking.

The prices aren't high, but they're not cheap either, so I'd like them to at least maintain restaurant-quality service and atmosphere.

Considering the price and location, I think the food is good enough, but if you ask me if I would like to go again, I feel like I would have decided not to go there again.
