Restaurants près de Solaria Nishitetsu Hotel Ginza

完璧で最高の料理でした。 出されるタイミング、温度、素材を活かす調理技術、本当に感動しました。 セルヴーズのかたは、経験不足で残念。もっともっと詳しく料理やシェフの伝えたい気持ちを代弁できたら良いのにと思います。まだ早いかもしれません。

My partner and I were the only customers dining that evening. I speak Japanese and chose to play interpreter for my partner, but the staff seemed quite willing to accommodate us in English. I'm not certain of the exact title of our server (maitre d'?), but he was incredibly friendly and well versed in all things food and drink! The meal itself was delightful, of course. Some highlights included the presentation of the first course (the best hamo I've had all summer: just a little bit warm and soft, and beautifully arranged atop a dewy lotus leaf); the perfect sashimi course (uni with fresh wasabi, tender sumi-ika, and a sensational smoky katsuo (bonito) that had none of the metallic fishy flavor I usually associate with bonito); the hairy crab with a creamy abalone gratin of sorts, served inside a lemon; not to mention the desserts! (a nutty zunda warabi mochi, peach pannacotta with peach jelly and fresh peach slices, and a quenelle of milk tea ice cream). But what really made the night special was the service. (Having the restaurant to ourselves might have helped.) My partner and I were having a little chat about what "umami" actually tastes like, and the entire restaurant staff was able to explain to us, off the top of their heads, the types of amino acids comprising different types of umami flavor -- in seaweed/kelp, tomato, tea, meat, seafood, etc. . They even printed out a chart for us! Even better than "impeccable service" is being made to feel like a welcome guest by those who genuinely know and love food.

One of our best meals in all of Japan. Definitely recommend!

記念日ディナーでお邪魔しましたり味も接客も素晴らしかったです。また是非伺いたいです。ありがとうございました。

料理はアラカルトにしましたが、そのチョイスにも丁寧な説明をしていただけて量も含めて安心納得してオーダーできました。 そして前菜、パスタ、メイン全て上質で大変美味しく頂きました。 またワインについても味の好みを抽象的に伝えてただけで大当たりの1本を提供していただけました。ソムリエの店長が仕切るまさに一流のお店です。
