MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View
One Star: High quality cooking
This historic ryotei is best known as the place where samurai loyal to the emperor met for secret talks in the last days of the shogunate. The spacious grounds accommodate the main building, a tea arbour and a garden. The chef carefully selects the ingredients and serving dishes, putting great effort into presenting food that pleases the eye. The ‘Nishiki-Kasane’, a two-tier lunch box, is the crowning jewel of the menu. The first tier is a colourful assortment of items, the second a takiawase.
