(Sun, Apr 4, '10) Khyber

Very good Tandoori : With close to zero expectations, my wife and I travelled to Ginza for some Indian food. As already commented by others, the Tandoori was excellent (we had the mixed grill which was not dry at all, ver ...

(Mon, Feb 15, '10) Piacere

Food always on the table : Piacere is the high-end Italian restaurant on the 28th floor of the Shangri-la hotel in the Nihonbashi/Tokyo/Otemachi area. 5 star quality for the decor. With its 20 foot+ high ceilings, magnificent v ...

Excellent Service : The best thing about this place is the service. The waiter spoke English, French and Japanese (take your pick) and knew everything about how the food was cooked. I also enjoyed their homemade bread. T ...

Salt, and lots of it : The good: - excellent service. The servers were very attentive but not intrusive. - Mario came out of the kitchen and added a personal touch by speaking with some of the regulars (in Italian with on ...

Still waiting... : As the previous posts have indicated, the crab liver/guts pasta was great as was the cheesecake but the service was unbelievable and not in a good way. Let's just say that our reservation was at 7 and ...

(Sat, Nov 24, '07) Midori Sushi　美登利寿司

Definitely the best! : I finally bit the bullet and waited in the unbelievably long line to get into the restaurant. However, the wait was well worth it. The place must have the biggest sushi pieces around and they're fresh ...

Excellent Italian Food : This place has received some excellent reviews and I've been meaning to bring my wife to it for a while so we finally went tonight. Going in, we had some high expectations because our favourite restau ...

(Fri, Oct 13, '06) The Terrace - Westin Tokyo Hotel

Excellent Buffet : I love this place! I know that I'm biased towards the Westin (although let's be clear: I am not employed at the Westin) and its bevy of restaurants but honestly, I think they've done a wonderful job o ...

Not Very Prime Rib : I went here a few months ago with my wife to enjoy a nice meal and was unfortunately disappointed. For those of you who have not been to this restaurant, they serve the Prime Rib in these giant silver ...

(Mon, Jul 17, '06) Fummy's Grill

Nice food at an excellent price : This is a very quaint restaurant in Ebisu located on the 2nd floor. Like it's cousin, Cardenas Charcoal Grill, it prepares tasty grilled food but at a much more affordable price. It's more casual than ...

(Mon, Jul 17, '06) Cardenas Charcoal Grill

All you have to know is my wife likes this restaurant. 'Nuff said. : This is my wife's favourite restaurant and if they can meet her high standards then chances are, you'll probably like it as well. A fancy restaurant with a more formal and romantic ambiance. The servi ...

(Mon, Apr 24, '06) Sakanaya 肴やちか坊

They've got an English menu now... : Without a doubt, the quality of the tsukune is the litmus test of a yakitori joint. In this case, the tsukune was good. Unfortunately, as an earlier reader pointed out, the menu is very limited (the r ...

(Sun, Apr 23, '06) Tandoor

The chicken tikka's not bad... : I think this is a chain restaurant but the one I visit is in Ebisu. It's a half decent restaurant. Usually, it's quiet and the service is decent. The food itself is okay. I like the nan there and the ...

An update... : My second experience at this restaurant was better. It started off with a better table (on the second floor) and just kept getting better. This time I had the foie gras in the truffle sauce for the ap ...

(Sun, Apr 23, '06) French Kitchen

I don't hate children. Really. But... : My review of the French Kitchen is similar to the other reviewers. Excellent food and excellent service (although I prefer the old buffet style for the main; yes, at times the food was a bit cold or t ...

(Sat, Feb 11, '06) Porterhouse Steaks

Best Steaks in town! : Although not exactly a cheap place for dinner, the quality of the food and the attentive service more than made up for the big bill. The portions are also "porterhouse" size that should satisfy the hu ...

Delicious but a little expensive : A small but cozy place that serves great French food. We sat at a table near the kitchen and were drooling as the chefs were cooking the foie gras (which by the way, is very big at this restaurant; th ...

(Sat, Feb 4, '06) BiMi Dim Sum 美味飲茶酒楼

Are they chasing down the chicken? : Nice interior. Dim sum was decent but not as good as Le Parc in Ebisu. The most frustrating thing was the super long wait for the food. Had to wonder whether they were out hunting for the chicken feet ...

(Sun, Jan 8, '06) Rico's Kitchen

Great place to break some bread! : The restaurant located in Ebisu is warm, cozy and intimate. The restaurant specializes in Californian wines and the cuisine is a fusion of western and Japanese styles with an emphasis on fish and seaf ...

(Sun, Jan 8, '06) Trattoria La Baracca

Great Italian Food : Excellent small neighbourhood style Italian restaurant (www.la-baracca.com). Specializes in mostly Toscana cuisine but great overall Italian food. It's known for its pizza but we love its seafood ling ...

Excellent Nasu! : Located on the second floor, this small and cozy restaurant offers a nice view of the hustle and bustle on the streets of Aoyama below. Their decor is simple and warm (with a small fireplace) and is m ...

(Sun, Dec 18, '05) Good Honest Grub

Eggs Benedict is eggcellent! : Couldn't resist the corny title. Sorry but really the eggs benedict is very good on a Sunday morning. Food is a little overpriced (especially that orange juice to go with the eggs) but overall, it's o ...

Watch out for that service charge! : The food is okay. It's been modified to suit the Japanese palate (the tzitziki/garlic sauce with your souvlaki doesn't have that kick). The decor is spartan but clean and the service is okay. The big ...

(Sun, Dec 18, '05) Oak Door

It's business, not personal : For the price, you can do a lot better if you want a romantic spot. However, the Oak Door has all the ingredients for conducting the power business dinner. Dark lighting, a room full of suits, a price ...

(Sun, Dec 18, '05) Shin Hinomoto (Andy`s Izakaya)

Hey, that fish is still moving! : A favourite hangout for many expats in Tokyo and for good reason. The price is right, the service is good and the food is simple but tasty. One of my favourites is the sushi, which apparently Andy (th ...

No chicken! : Love the food. The sauteed foie gras with daikon is excellent and the entrecote is also very good. The one oddity is that for whatever reason, they do not serve chicken!
