Restaurants near Roka-koen Station

A very enjoyable and memorable experience with friends. The food was very good and the service was friendly and easy going. The full course menus are very filling. Value for the many was very good compared to many other major cities outside of Japan with the same type of food offering. I would recommend this place for small group gatherings.

This was the best experience I had in Tokyo and will be back every time I come. 10/10

One of the best meals in my life, and I have a lot of experience. The chef was funny, kind, and an artist. The food was really special, all the ingredients were sourced from wherever the food originates from and ordered freshly days before. We had raw whale as sashimi, and fresh porcini muchrooms cooked in an incredible soup, and special rice that he even used the water from the area that the rice came from to cook it. Everything was special and incredible but also his design was amazing. One of the dishes came in a picnic basket with leaves and flowers from the season decorating it. And another had the flowers in season added into the cup that held the dish. The place is also about 6 seats so very important

It’s a hidden gem. Best sushi I’ve ever had and I’m picky about sushi. The chef is a true master who has been sushi chef for 40 years.

Essence was so wonderful. The food was delicious, with unique tastes and flavors, the chef was very friendly and attentive, and (most importantly) my girlfriend thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I was really enjoying the bread rolls ... and as we were leaving the chef offered us a fresh loaf to take home! Just an all around great experience.
