Do NOT be deceived by the understated venue. The dining area is intimate and the staff is top notch. You will be educated about the different cuts and sake. The award winning Wagyu is heavenly. I’d give it a ten if possible.

    This experience was easily one of the highlights of our visit to Tokyo! Everything we tasted was delicious and thoughtfully curated, and the hosts were very friendly and knowledgeable about everything we tried. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking to experience Wagyu beef to its fullest!

    Wagu that will never be beaten

    Troy_B, Jan 2026
    This was my first introduction to wagu and it was the high light of my trip it was my last night in tokyo tucked away down a very quiet street but under the lights of the Tokyo sky deck.The restrains was small but so prefect each serve was perfectly match with sake all prept and cooked right in front of you and each bite was like taste of heaven can not recommend this experience enough l would happily go back again to taste what was perfection.

    This was an incredible...

    John_D, Dec 2025
    This was an incredible experience, and my wife and I absolutely loved it. With only six people in our group, it felt intimate and exclusive, making the entire evening even more special. The food was phenomenal—honestly the best meat I’ve ever tasted—and the sake pairings for each course were perfectly chosen and delicious. We enjoyed every moment and are already looking forward to doing it again on our next trip to Japan!

    Tastet amazing

    Very nice people, good at English, very friendly. Nice place, the chairs could be better. Good sake. Nice to watch the food being made

    The wagyu will blow your mind

    Erin_G, Nov 2025
    This food was up there with the best we had in 2 weeks in Japan. Absolutely incredible, and the host was super friendly and informative too. We tried some interesting sakes and took pictures of the bottles so we could find them again. A great evening

    Superb dining experience

    Matt_G, Oct 2025

    The best experience I’ve ever had. The place is cozy, the service is great, and the food is delicious. It’s worth the trip.

    What a Wagyu!

    Jana_R, Jul 2025
    So wonderful! A hidden gem, this tiny restaurant event is offered in the back of the small hotel bar. You’d never know it existed! Mouth-watering Wagyu dishes and excellent Sake. So fun! Very intimate!

    Exceptional !

    Deborah_H, Jun 2025
    This was absolutely the best food tour I have taken. That description does not do this experience justice. The meat melts in your mouth and the different flavors are mind melting. I would fly back to Japan again just for this. Absolute must on any visit to Japan.

    Thank you again

    Sara_P, Jun 2025
    It was our second time here and we are coming back with friends as well because we absolutely loved the experience. The people are extremely nice and professional and the food is absolutely amazing. Please make sure you experience it for yourself!

    The best!

    Haley_S, Jun 2025
    Possibly the best food I’ve ever had in my entire life! Flavorful and complex pairings. The staff was kind and informative and the venue so beautiful!

    Delicious and amazing experience!

    Top-Notch Wagyu and Sake Pairing with Thoughtful Soy Allergy Accommodation

    Deborah_H, May 2025
    Absolutely incredible Wagyu and sake pairing experience! Each bite of the tender, melt-in-your-mouth Wagyu was amazing. What truly stood out was their thoughtful accommodation of my soy allergy — they went above and beyond to ensure my meal was safe and just as delicious. Exceptional service, impeccable attention to detail, and a culinary journey I won’t forget. Highly recommend!!! Within easy walking distance (5 blocks) from Skytree.

    Sooooo Glad I went !!!

    Doug_E, May 2025
    It was and inviting and intimate experience. Was great for a solo traveler who was not the only solo traveler in the experience. The chef was excellent and the host/translator was spot on in every way. Great food and vivacious group of people to meet and speak to from around the World.

    Delicious wagyu beef and sake

    Nicholas_M, Apr 2025
    An excellent pairing of wagyu beef and sake. Every course is delicately prepared and absolutely delicious. It's amazing just how many varied dishes can be prepared from wagyu beef! The quality of the sake was excellent and offers a range of different types. I still think about this dinner weeks later!

    Spend the money- it’s worth it

    Carmen_M, Apr 2025
    Everything was perfect. The set up, the preparation, the wagyu, the sake, and the presentation. You don’t want to miss this experience.

    It is worth the money!

    Josh_W, Mar 2025
    Enthusiastic and engaging presenter, food was delicious, prepared quite traditionally but the simple elegance lets you fully experience the waygu itself. There was a good variety of sakes and the one they make themselves (which was given as a welcome drink) was particularly good. Overall it is an expensive choice but it was well worth the money for the probably the best beef you might ever eat, sake and experience.

    Best meal in tokoyo!!!...

    Toni_B, Feb 2025
    Best meal in tokoyo!!! The chef took so much care in plating and in crafting this beautiful wagu experience. We would 100 percent so this again!

    Go somewhere else

    Florisa_S, Jan 2025
    I was looking forward to this experience given all of the five star reviews, unfortunately I did not have the same experience as others have. For starters when you walk in there is a small bar and behind the bar is a separate room where the food is prepped and cooked. We unfortunately were seated at the bar away from everyone else even though we were the first to arrive. It took away from the experience as we were looking forward to meeting new people and chatting. The chef which is featured in the booking pictures was very moody and condescending when talking to us. We were not rude and never gave him a reason to treat us so rudely. He cooked the first dish and when everyone seated at the table showed up he left to cook for them and never returned. The other two Japanese employees would come out and cook or just serve us the food and explained with the minimal English they knew about the food we were about to eat. They were at least friendly. I would not recommend this location especially if you want to just sit at a small bar. For the price I paid I could get better service in America and have an overall better experience.

    This was an intimate and amazing experience. Group size was small enough that we could converse with everyone. Filling and informative. I would book again. The tasting was well paired

    Head over heels

    Lykke_P, Jan 2025
    This is the most amazing experience! Mike, the guide is such a friendly and welcoming face and gave us so much great information about both wagyu and sake. The pairings were elite, the venue beautiful and some nice old school hip hop playing in the background while indulging in these AMAZING dishes and drinks. Reading the previous reviews, our expectations were through the roof, but those expectations seemed like nothing compared to what we actually experienced. This is a 10/10, even more so! It will be our top 1 recommendation for anyone going to Tokyo in the future ❤️

    Amazing

    Michelle_M, Nov 2024

    Chef Mike was very personable and informative with respect to all of the dishes. He did a superb job of putting together several different versions of the beef and each of them was quite delicious. strongly Recommend.
