Cignale Enoteca Review Summary

It would be disrespectful to call Cignale Enoteca just a restaurant - it was an unforgettable and unique dining experience. After being sat at one of the 9 seats, the imitate evening begins with the friendly team of chefs showing you exactly what’s for dinner in a beautiful display of fresh fish, veggies, meat and for us, a live lobster.
One after another, the beautifully plated dishes are placed in front of you. You never feel rushed to finish your plate - it seemed like the chef personally knew me and knew that I am naturally slow eater and cooked every dish to perfection just in time when I finished the prior. I was nervous about eating specifically an Italian-Japanese Omakase because I am small and naturally I end up with leftovers at any normal restaurant and what’s more filling than pasta? This never came to be an issue for me at Cignale Enoteca - the portion sizes were absolutely perfect and even after dessert, I did not feel overly full nor did I feel still hungry like I sometimes do at other fine dining establishments. They absolutely nailed the phrase “Barriga llena, corazón contento” 💖 We will be back for more in the future! If there’s any specific reason for my return to Tokyo, it would be to experience Cignale Enoteca again. Thank you!!!!!!!

Delicious at highest quality with amazing service and friend staff embedded in a beautiful and cosy restaurant atmosphere describes it the best! Very seasonal hand picked ingredients by the chef. Reservations need to be made months in advance for a reason! Just lovely and definitely a memorable experience!

Very cool spot! We went for my birthday. Staff was great! Food was top notch. Also made a special birthday desert, contact them beforehand and they can do it for you!

It’s a hideaway restaurant only known by regular customers. Very lucky to be invited by gracious friends. Amazing quality of food dished out, course after course. Very lovely set up and vibe. Ingredients used are of course top quality, and the cooking is very sincere and unpretentious. Hope to go back next time when I visit Tokyo. Thank you for the hospitality.

A few courses are stand out hits, notably the sashimi, cod, and pasta. Bread came with multiple courses, and was good, but too filling, and I would have preferred just one really special bread. Serving it fresh from the oven though is wonderful. The space is gorgeous and all the cooking appears to be done right in front of you.
