I was very curious about this small French restaurant since few gourmet friends visit.
The main steak was bit over heating from my preference though fish was great!
Perfect for beautiful weekend lunch. I would love to try dinner, too though.

We had a sublime meal here on our last evening in Tokyo.  Run by a husband and wife team, both welcoming and professional, the tasting menu was characterised by each dish not only looking like artwork on a plate but each mouthful being delicious, wonderfully balanced and moreish with locally sourced ingredients and brilliant attention to detail.  Good wine list too, very reasonably priced.  Certainly Michelin star standard and very intimate - we were a table of 4 and there are 6 seats at the counter.  A truly special way to end a truly special trip.

Simply brilliant! A stunning blend of Japanese and french cuisine, crafted in a highly creative yet non arrogant way, by a truly gifted couple. The wine selection is also on point (the Gigondas is clearly a safe bet). This was a wonderful moment and treat for my birthday and I recommend this gem wholeheartedly!
