Narisawa

Narisawa is the tasting-menu restaurant of chef Yoshihiro Narisawa, at Minami-Aoyama 2-6-15. The chef calls his cooking 'Innovative Satoyama Cuisine': satoyama is the rural landscape between forest and field, and the dishes are built from its season and its ingredients. In the Michelin Guide the restaurant holds two stars, in the 'Innovative' category.

This is a tasting restaurant with a single menu set by the chef, for lunch and dinner, not a place for a spontaneous meal in the middle of a route. It is not a kosher restaurant.

Good to know

The website does not list a dress code or what can be done about vegetarian diets or allergies. If you need to, ask in advance through the inquiry form on the English website, before booking and not on the day itself.
Children are not admitted: under 17 according to the Japanese website, and under 18 according to the English website.
Smoking is prohibited throughout the restaurant and at the entrance too, including e-cigarettes. If you are celebrating something, ask for a dessert plate with a message when you book.
