A Plate for the Celebration
Réjouissance means celebration in French. Built on French technique, the cooking places Japanese produce and dashi at the centre of each composition, and the menu changes with the season.

Cuisine
The season at its best, given without restraint
We choose what shines brightest in the season and use it without holding back. Seasonal flavours and fine ingredients go into every plate, so each one carries the richness of its time of year. Alcohol is served as pairings, in Kimura Glass.
The Counter
Six counter seats, close to the kitchen
There are only six counter seats. From preparation to the final touch everything happens within arm’s reach, so the thinking behind each plate reaches you directly.Chinese and French are also available.
