Our 2nd time to dine here. The service and food reflect on the consistent Michelin ratings ( 7 years ) Our specialist Martin was at the top of his game Truly helpful explaining the fine details of each serving Chef Yamamoto did not disappoint. Enjoyed the Wagyu and the Duck on top of the dumpling. The Sea Breem had an amazing ponzu gel Only complaint is the year 2020 vintage of Rindo should not be served since that’s a horrible year for wine because of the Napa fires. Still good but it clouded my judgement on the wine because of the suspect issues of the fires to the vines Never the less we had an epic dinner Arigato🙏🏼🇯🇵

This was my second time here, and it was just as memorable as the first. The attention to detail in service and delicious quality of the food is something that will have me coming back many more times. I highly recommend getting the pairing (it includes both sake and wine) if you drink alcohol. It is well worth it.

We highly recommend this restaurant. It was our first time trying Japanese cuisine in a long time, and we were not disappointed. The variety of choices for each course was extensive, and each one was pleasantly surprising in terms of taste, contrast, and texture. Even though we were expecting the Wagyu beef course to be exceptional, the eight other courses easily matched its level of excellence.

Prior to arrival communication was very poor. I didn't receive replies to my two inquiries before my arrival which resulted in leaving with a bill in excess of $500. A bit higher than I had anticipated. My dining experience was very good however, the environment was noisier than expected and the female server who often waited on me was difficult to hear and understand what she was saying. I sat at the counter which was perfect for a single reservation. I'm curious if the tables in the other rooms provided a quieter experience. I'd recommend Kenzo with detailed information so individuals wouldn't be surprised or disappointed.
