Yanmo — Restaurant in Tokyo

Beware of the 2200 JPY table charge per person and that the prices are listed without 10% tax.

Dinner price is on the expensive side and you'll need a reservation. There are also private rooms in the back, a counter, Japanese style seating (tatami mat), and tables. Not wheelchair friendly as there is only a long flight of stairs to...
