"I finally made it to Wolfgang's Steak House in Roppongi! It was fantastic, as expected. ✨ The food was delicious, of course, but the staff were truly kind and friendly. I was particularly impressed by the foreign staff member who patiently taught my shy child how to cut meat and use a knife and fork. 🍽️ My child, who usually gets embarrassed, r"

"If your favorite artist is performing live, you should definitely go. If it's your first time, you can get a feel for the atmosphere by sitting in the casual seats on the 5th floor. However, you'll enjoy it even more if you're closer to the stage. It has a private live concert vibe. The most convenient way to get there might be by using the Oedo "

"The crispy exterior gave way to a juicy, tofu-like tenderness in the chicken breast cutlet, bursting with flavor in my mouth! It was pure deliciousness! This cutlet completely redefined my understanding of chicken breast cutlets. It was cooked through while retaining its moisture, resulting in a tender texture that made it impossible to stop at jus"

"Located on the left side of a small alleyway to the right before reaching Midtown, if you walk towards Midtown from Roppongi Station and cross the Roppongi intersection. This was my first time trying Musashi! Apparently, there are many different branches of Musashi, and this time I visited the Roppongi branch! ◆ Spicy Tsukemen (1150 yen) The noo"

"I visited this restaurant specifically for the Peking duck and chicken ramen. Upon being seated, they serve green tea (which is essentially like water and they refill it when it runs out). Most dishes come in two sizes: small and medium. If you're a group of 3-4 people sharing a few dishes, the small size is more than enough. The chicken ramen in p"

"First visit. I tried the newly released salt kombu water dipping noodles. The noodles were chewy and delicious, but the dipping sauce was a bit too salty. The lights on the ceiling were too bright, making it difficult to take photos because of the shadows. The service was poor. Water didn't come out. I was made to wait at the checkout."

"We finally made it to the legendary Joel Robuchon restaurant! We were excited to find out they offered a casual dining option, perfect for bringing our child along. We made a reservation but decided to choose between the set menu or à la carte options on the day. We were so grateful to find a children's menu available. My husband and I opted for "

"**Special Porcini Soy Sauce Ramen (¥2,000)** First visit. Arrived at 10:05 am on a weekday in October 2024 and was the first in line. The line grew steadily, and by opening time, there were about 25 people waiting. A few minutes before opening, they checked the number of people and handed out menus. There were many inbound tourists, so instruction"

"Shoyu ramen with a large portion for 1050 yen. While it's a completely simple shoyu ramen, even with a large portion (probably 1.5 servings for a regular large portion), it's over 1000 yen... It used to be around 600 yen when I went there often... I was disappointed that the drum can in front of the store was gone, but I noticed it was on the "

"If you're looking for burgers, you can eat at the bar without a reservation. While you can dine in, I highly recommend their takeout cheesecake! It's rich, but the accompanying sauce prevents it from being too heavy. A delicious cake with a well-calculated balance of flavors. Payment is accepted by credit card, cash, and other methods."

"Shibuya is closer to my home, but I feel like the food is better in Roppongi. When I crave soup dumplings, I come here. Soup dumplings, spring rolls with Shanghai crab paste, and vegetarian buns. These are the basics. I start with the pork soup dumplings and finish with the shrimp ones. The triangular spring rolls are my wife's favorite. I l"

"**Reservation Visit on Thursday, October 3, 2024, at 6:30 PM** I made a reservation for the "Satisfying Dinner Set" course, priced at 9,800 yen (excluding tax). The carpaccio, thick-cut tongue, and other cuts like the harami, fillet, shinshin, zabuton, and sirloin were all delicious. The yukke I ordered outside the course was also, of course, del"

"October 8, 2024 (Tuesday) First visit to La Brianza, a restaurant selected for the 2023 edition of Tabelog's "Italian Restaurants in Tokyo: Top 100". I made a reservation through Tabelog.

"This restaurant is located on the 5th floor of Roppongi Hills. I went there for lunch on a weekday, and it was packed. Upon entering, I was led to my table past a wine cellar on the left. The atmosphere was fantastic, and I was excited for the experience to come. I had made a reservation, and I was seated on a sofa next to the kitchen. The kit"

"## Gyugyu Nishi-Azabu Main Store Located just a 3-4 minute walk from Roppongi Station's Exit 2 on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line, right in front of Roppongi Hills, this restaurant is a popular spot even among YouTubers like Hikaru. The taste is top-notch, of course! I went to enjoy the A5 Wagyu full course, where you can savor the 'space' itself, wh"

"Roppongi has a lot of unexpected places. I searched for a Chinese restaurant and found this one with the best reviews nearby, so I decided to visit. The restaurant had a more upscale, nighttime atmosphere, which was a bit surprising. I looked for the menu and found that they only had one lunch option. I ordered it right away, and it came with noodl"

"I saw this place on a friend's Instagram and decided to visit during my business trip to Tokyo. They presented me with a magnificent piece of meat, the epitome of what meat should be, and allowed me to choose my favorite cut from their daily specials. The rest of the meal was equally impressive, with a selection of five appetizers from which I cou"

"This is a small-plate Chinese restaurant located just a 5-minute walk from Roppongi Station. It features a counter-only seating arrangement, offering a lively atmosphere. The char siu, initially sweet, was delicious. The reimagined century egg tofu included corn puree and corn kernels. The five-course appetizer platter featured chilled jellyfish, s"

"A hidden gem of a yakiniku restaurant in Nishi-Azabu, offering luxurious private rooms. The namul and kimchi are beautifully presented and authentically flavored, especially the yukkе, which is a vibrant orange. The Tajima beef tongue, fillet, and sirloin are exquisite, with the thick-cut tongue being a truly memorable experience. Cold noodles and "

"This restaurant uses "媛っこ地鶏" (Ehime Prefecture's special long-term raised chicken), "合鴨" (A duck) and "ホロホロ鳥" (Guinea fowl) from a contracted farm in Ibaraki Prefecture. The meat is incredibly tender and delicious. The minimalist and stylish space feels like a hidden gem restaurant. The conscious skewering and precise grilling techniques allow yo"

"I finally visited the super famous "Tosenkaku" in Roppongi. ● I was completely satisfied! It's a high-class Chinese restaurant that doesn't unnecessarily try to be creative, serving straightforward and understandable dishes. ● Each person's dish is served on a small plate. ● The flavors are all excellent! You can enjoy a variety of dishes. ● T"

"I met up with a junior colleague from my previous company after more than a decade, and we're practically friends now. Since it was a long time since we last saw each other, I wanted to treat him to something nice, so I made a reservation here. This was my first time at a traditional Japanese restaurant, a 'ryotei' or 'kaiseki' establishment, and I"
