G -WA Selection- (Tokyo Marriott Hotel)

The Tokyo Marriott Hotel, one of the city’s most premier hotels in upscale Shinagawa, has a responsibility to provide meals that keep traveling clients coming back. With G ~Wa Selection~, the hotel accomplishes just that with its novel “Franco-Japonais” spin on upscale cuisine. Conceptualized with the greatest care and thought put into them, the restaurant’s main draw are its omakase courses, which change with the season. Even the names of each dish represent a self-contained piece of the dining story and integral part of the signature Marriott sense of luxury theming that extends through the meal. A glance at the a la carte menu reveals traditionally domestic dishes, like Okinawan-style kombu-maki (kelp-wrapped pork) side by side with luxury offerings of fatty tuna and creamy sea urchin. A textured black backsplash frames expert sushi chefs behind the traditional 8-seat counter, while creative dishes topped with seasonal herbs and flowers remind diners of the hotel’s international presence. Every meal impresses with a marriage of French finesse and Japanese art.
