Yaoyu Review Summary

Hands down my most favourite French restaurant in Tokyo.
The owner chef is truly one of a kind with incredible talents. You can just sit back and watch the spacious open kitchen, while enjoying fantastic wine pairings proposed by the sommelière.
If you're looking for a casual place to drink natural wine and an eye-opening combination of seasonal ingredients, I strongly recommend this restaurant to you.

Very discreet location around the Otemachi business district, and quite low key especially on a weekend - where the streets are empty. Servings were generous, and pricing was very reasonable for a filling 6-course (70$). A lot of nice options of natural wine and local options from within Japan as well. Overall a good experience and actually would consider coming back for another season (spring or fall).

It was an excellent dinner ! The set menu exceeded our expectations from starter to dessert. The wine selection is truly French, with the best quality and price. The chef and manager are very friendly ! Will come back for sure.

Don't have time for a proper review. I'm just letting you know that this was ecstatic. Truly briliant dishes focused on the taste and texture first, not on instagram attracriveness or tasteless innovation.

I am in awe.

Beautiful hidden gem, every dish was made with care and the quality of the dishes far outweighs the price of the dishes, it seems to be a single chef is cooking in the kitchen and his attention to detail is remarkable. The white asparagus and uni(sea urchin) with crab appetizer was a delight.
