2 Michelin Stars Modern Kaiskei. Absolute Favorite.
A progressive philosophic journey. Well-balanced meal from start to
finish. They value holistic customer experience rather anything else. They told us that some menu items would be the same as our last visit was just last month, but Chef Niki gave us sneak previews of next season's menu to let us try and comment on them. What a treat. They are still being developed. Niki
Nakyama is very humble and friendly. Abalone Pasta is her signature
dish. Devin is an exceptional sommelier and
always provides us with beyond outstanding service. We had Bashu Ikkon Junmai Daiginjo Sake recommended by Devin. Interesting notes of fruits started appearing as it opened up. Great team service. 3 hours dinner. Course $310 per person. Corkage fee $85. Limited free street parking or valet. Reservations on Tock and are very hard to book.
