Bistro Tokyo Hands — Restaurant in Tokyo

Bistro Tokyo Hands is a hidden gem near Nakameguro Station that delivers an exceptional dining experience. The highlight of the menu is their roast chicken — perfectly seasoned, tender, and full of flavor. It’s so popular that you need to make an advance reservation for it, but it’s absolutely worth the wait.

The mashed potatoes with cheese are rich and comforting, and the mushroom aioli adds a beautiful earthy depth to the meal. Their pumpkin and thyme homemade bread is another standout — warm, fragrant, and deliciously unique. Pair it all with a glass of their Italian red wine, and you’ve got a perfect evening.

The couple who run the bistro are incredibly warm and attentive, making you feel like you’re dining at a friend’s home. The service, atmosphere, and food all come together beautifully, creating a cozy yet refined experience.
