District - Brasserie, Bar, Lounge — Restaurant in Tokyo

I booked the Kimpton Hotel in West Shinjuku for my family Christmas party as we had several guests from different countries coming to visit us here in Japan. The Kimpton is an upscale, boutique hotel, and it's a very modern, sleek designed hotel and dining space. Upon arrival we quickly seated and ordered some cocktails to start. The Christmas menu was a set course (Snow Smile) at ¥20,000 per person.

The food overall is pretty regular for brunch but nothing is impressive. 3 course menu is 5,000 yen per person and wine list starts from 7,000 yen ish There is a 10% service charge while I really don’t understand why!

In the end we spend 12,000+ yen per person for a standard brunch experience, and really don’t understand why. Usually it’s around 6,000-7,000 yen per person and you get much better food, wine and SERVICE!! Not...

Fantastic restaurant in the Kimpton hotel. It’s also extremely dog friendly and it’s common to see pups sitting with owners and being served their own meals.

From breakfast, lunch, to dinner, almost every dish is a hit and the wait staff are courteous, quick, and friendly in what you’d expect from an international hotel.

The burrata is wonderful, the Japanese breakfast is delightful and the wagyu is genuinely superb. The burger, served with kimchi and an egg (at least for brunch), is an odd miss.

Worth trying if you’re in the area and makes you reconsider how good hotel restaurants can be (as Kimpton long...
