Teppanyaki Sawa Akasaka Review Summary

What a wonderful place, what a great cook, what an experience. We walked in one night by coincidence always looking for special places, but unfortunately there was no table available. We tried a second time and were lucky. We were seated at the bar in front of the cook and we do recommend any food lover to do so and order a course / menu. The quality of the food is outstanding, it was fascinating to follow the making of your dishes. BIG THANKS to the team, this will be an unforgettable experience. Whenever we will come back to Tokio, we will come back to this place again.

Excellent food and good service bit a bit pricey..

Best ever. Loved the authentic cuisine.

A hidden gem with a wonderful teppanyaki experience!

Akasaka's super hidden teppanyaki restaurant run by a cool lady. Courses are also reasonably priced, starting from 5 to 6,000 yen. The delicate and careful work brings out the flavors of the ingredients, and all of the dishes served are exquisite.
The main focus was on seasonal dishes, starting with firefly squid, eggplant, and fava beans. Young corn tastes delicious when hot. Steamed clams and cabbage go perfectly with alcohol. The horse sashimi is cut into large pieces, but is melt-in-your-mouth soft. Seasonal new potatoes, firefly squid, and new onions are served grilled in butter, the classic way. The konnyaku is prepared one by one, and you can enjoy the variety of flavors from plain to yuzu and shichimi to seasoned.
The second half was the famous garlic and cheese mille-feuille and tonpeiyaki. As for the steak, I received a small portion of sirloin and fillet at my request.
The okonomiyaki is so fluffy that you can eat as much as you want.
Another customer was putting mentaiko on garlic rice in a bowl, and it looked so delicious.
