About

Michelin one star and seasonal omakase kaiseki

Seasonal omakase kaiseki anchors the Japanese cooking here, with dinner as the stated meal fit and an omakase bar format. Michelin awarded one star in 2024 and 2026.

Abalone, clay pot rice, and sake

Grilled abalone with seaweed aroma, grilled abalone with liver sauce, and seasonal clay pot rice define the named dishes. Sake, local sourcing, and sustainable seafood frame the meal’s pairing and sourcing direction.

Minamiazabu counter with quiet pacing
