"Just a short walk from Roppongi Station, tucked away in a back alley, I discovered a renowned eel restaurant that was selected for the 2024 Michelin Guide Tokyo Selected Restaurants! This time, I enjoyed their Saturday lunch-only course. ◉ Course 【Lunch-Only! Eel Rice Bowl Course】¥8,400 ☆ Seasonal Side Dish (Medium Fatty Tuna in Vinegar Sauce) ☆"

"A renowned sushi restaurant in Roppongi that has produced many excellent apprentices, serving truly delicious sushi. I was on a business trip to a different region and had plans to go out for drinks, but I received a sudden call from the president I respect, asking me to join him for dinner. I canceled my drinking plans and rushed back to Roppong"

"I've used this restaurant for business dinners. It has private rooms, so you can enjoy your meal in a quiet atmosphere. The food is excellent, with a variety of elaborate dishes served over a period of about three hours. However, the service could be improved. It would be helpful to have a call button or something similar, as ordering drinks was a"

"I stopped by "Yoshizawa" for lunch before watching a movie at Roppongi Hills. It's a sister restaurant of the famous "Ginza Ichiriki" and opened in Roppongi Hills. It's amazing to find such a place within the Hills. It feels so new. The counter has a luxurious feel. From the counter, you can see the custom-made earthenware pot. I could even see mat"

"When you hear 'omakase sushi' in Roppongi, you might imagine it costing tens of thousands of yen, but this place is different. It's a second brand of the Ginza main store, aimed at younger people, with young chefs working hard. The sushi ingredients are more casual than high-end, but for this price, it's definitely understandable. You can also tell"

"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 "

"【Time】 I arrived around 11:30. 【Taste】 ✔︎Weekday-only set menu: 【Soba Set】 ¥2,000 (tax included) ・Three-piece appetizer platter The contents weren't explained. It was like a red radish pickle? A cucumber appetizer? Pork jelly? All of them were delicious. ・Sanlar Tanmen (Spicy and Sour Noodle Soup) It arrived second. The fluffy soup, not too spi"

"**Highlights** ✔️ A French restaurant located in Roppongi, which opened in 2011 and has continuously earned two Michelin stars for 12 consecutive years. ✔️ The chef has deep connections with Japanese cuisine chefs, and while using French culinary techniques as a foundation, he skillfully utilizes Japanese tableware, Japanese knives, and elevates Ja"

"They offer a course without dessert on weekdays, which is perfect for me as I'm not that interested in dessert. To be honest, I didn't have any expectations for the food, but I was pleasantly surprised. The cuisine was incredibly delicious and creative, incorporating subtle Japanese flavors in a refined way! It's neither French nor Italian, but a p"

"This was my second visit, and the food was delicious again. The seasoning is mild, but the cooking techniques are excellent, bringing out the natural flavors of the ingredients. While there have been comments about the service, I understand that kitchen staff are helping with serving due to circumstances. Considering the price, the course is exce"

"This very popular bakery is located a short walk from Roppongi Station. Even on a Sunday morning, the shop was almost full, and there was a line for takeout bread. I wanted to have lunch there, but I didn't have time, so I got takeout instead. ◆ Cool Chocolate ¥420 I was torn between so many choices, but I decided on this one because I hadn't se"

"The food was absolutely delicious, as you'd expect from a high-end establishment! While the main dishes tend to feature a lot of shrimp, it's not a problem if you're allergic or don't like shellfish. The restaurant is happy to modify the menu to suit your preferences and dietary needs, so you can relax and enjoy your meal. The atmosphere and servic"

"The food is delicious, prepared with care and time, and beautifully presented. It makes me feel happy. I also appreciate the calm and relaxing atmosphere, perfect for enjoying a meal."

"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"

"I was a bit apprehensive arriving at the restaurant, having read reviews describing the dining experience as intense and serious. However, Takashi Ono's professionalism and meticulous planning were evident in every detail of the meal, from the exquisite balance of sashimi and vinegared rice to his multilingual fluency, effortlessly conversing in En"

"We visited with two people at 1 pm on a weekday, and there was no wait due to our reservation. There were also walk-ins, so it seems like it's a fairly easy place to visit without a reservation. The course menu only offered one set option, so we ordered à la carte. We had: * Foie gras sauté * Okujuku egg in a pot with black truffle * Tagliatelle w"

"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"

"**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"

"The Mapo Tofu is packed with large chunks of diced beef! I visited "Lao Sichuan Piaoxiang Xiaoyuan", a Chinese restaurant that was newly selected as one of the top 100 restaurants in Japan, located an 8-minute walk from Rokkonsen Station. I arrived 10 minutes before opening on a weekday and there was no wait. I was able to enter as soon as it "
