Hinokizaka — Restaurant in Tokyo

An Unforgettable Teppanyaki Experience at The Ritz-Carlton

From the moment I stepped into the teppanyaki restaurant at The Ritz-Carlton Tokyo, I knew I was in for something truly special. The elegant ambiance, the attentive service, and the masterful skills of the chef all contributed to an exceptional dining experience.

The ingredients were of the highest quality—succulent Yamagata wagyu, fresh ise ebi (Japanese spiny lobster), and awabi (abalone), each prepared with precision and artistry.

My lunch at Hinokizaka, nestled within the Carlton Ritz, was nothing short of extraordinary. The tempura experience transcended mere dining, offering a masterful showcase of culinary artistry that I would confidently rank among the most exceptional meals of my life.
