MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View
One Star: High quality cooking
Owner-chef Gaku Imagawa tries to craft variety without straying too far from a framework of Japanese cuisine. His menu reflects the creativity he developed under his mentor. Fried barracuda is drizzled in black vinegar, and char-grilled sawara is dressed in apple sauce. He finds inventive ways to add the umami of dashi to the sourness or sweetness of the dish. For takikomi-gohan, he uses rice grown by a relative. To wrap up the meal, he reassures with a return to simple Japanese fare.
