An amazing experience with tremendously friendly and engaging head chef and staff. We were a group of three hungry guys who had no idea what to expect from such an experience. We came in with open minds and hearts, and were treated with an excellent dinner beyond our wildest expectations.
There were so many different types of food with so many different types of presentation that even though the menu displayed a certain number of items, if felt like we had 2 or 3 times that amount. The menus we were given were full graphical, so it allowed us to play a bit of a guessing game as to what we would receive. The drink options were also excellent, and you could find a drink to pair with each food item. But even without any of the drinks and just plain water, the food experience is tremendous. The menu is also seasonal, so if are lucky enough to be in the area multiple times of the year, you'll be treated to different meals each time.
The head chef had a very impressive command of the English language, even though he had only been learning for about months when we met him. He and his staff will definitely be very well practiced in a bunch of languages within a year or two if they keep up the amazing level of dedication that they displayed during our visit. The price is not cheap, but clearly everyone is working hard enough to make it worth it. Very highly recommended, and if the only thing you do when you visit Ishikawa (or even Kanazawa) is eat dinner here, it is 100% worth doing.
