This meal was an absolute highlight of our trip! We were initially worried it would be a bit of tourist trap after seeing it repeatedly on social media but it was not at all. Definitely worth the trouble of reserving from abroad ahead of time! The value was great and the food was even better. Every dish in the 8 course set menu was delicious. Would recommend to anyone but must love tuna!

This meal was one of the highlights from our trip. We thoroughly enjoyed every course except the shiso dish. That flavor combo didn’t work for us.

The highballs were also delicious.

Highly recommend a visit here. Reservations for groups of more than 2 seem to be easier to acquire.

Staff was friendly and did their best to work with our minimal Japanese.

I understand the concept of the store but I much preferred otoro and chitoro. Don’t really like to have an excess amount of the non-fatty bit or fish.
The cooked tuna was steam fish with ginger and soy sauce… I couldn’t taste the tuna and feel like I was in a Chinese restaurant. I didn’t like the uni sauce rice either, I prefer raw uni.
I think it’s more of a personal preference, the staff was friendly and going there allow me to explore another area of Tokyo.

Great place to try out different forms of Tuna through the course menu.
The quality of the fish is exceptionally good and so were the other preparation from the same.
The fries lacked texture.
Prior reservation is a must as the place is always busy and reservations are usually full as well so a month in advance is recommended.
The constant yelling of the orders can be a bit jarring.

Please be aware that if you’re a solo traveller/diner making an online reservation, you have to have at least 2 people confirmed to show up.

The online reservation system does not accept 1 person reservations (even if you indicate it in the comments that 1 person will show up for a 2 people reservation, which was what I did). The restaurant charged me 2,000 JPY as a cancellation as only 1 person (myself) showed up instead of the 2 indicated in the online reservation.

Also I was told that since I was dining alone (1 person), I was not allowed to order their 7/8 course meals, as they are meant for 2 people. So I had to pay 2,000 JPY on top of the Ala Carte food that I ordered.

Was kind of angry as this information was only given to me after the drink I had ordered came; I felt that the restaurant should have addressed the comment I had left when making the reservation but I guess it was my fault for not knowing this beforehand.

Still ate here and paid the cancellation charge, as this place requires reservations if you really wanna eat here.

The food is very fresh and well prepared; just don’t make the same mistake as I did if you’re a solo traveller/diner.
