Kaiseki Komuro
Experience the full range of Japanese seasonal flavors, in the hands of a Michelin-starred chef who cooks for the Japanese cultural elite.
Restaurant Details
There’s a real sense of natural vitality running through the menu at this Michelin-starred kaiseki restaurant in Kagurazaka. Seasonal ingredients like fresh seafood, duck, wild boar, Kyoto vegetables, and suppon (soft-shelled turtle) depict the richness and diversity of the seasons.
These all feature in a historic and authentic kaiseki meal, infused with the spirit of tea ceremony. In fact, the chef is also in the employ of the head family of the Enshu-ryu school of that ancient Japanese art, meaning he prepares dishes to accompany their significant rituals throughout the year.
You’ll also be treated to something a little harder when you take a seat at his restaurant, with an excellent range of sake on offer. The chef visits both food producers and sake brewers directly to learn about the ingredients and guarantee the quality of everything he stocks.
Komuro has been running since 2000 but got a new location in 2018, so the interior is beautifully fresh. It still retains a gorgeously traditional style, as it was designed by a famous design firm from Kyoto.
Inside you’ll find 10 counter seats, and 3 private rooms on the upper level. Landing one of these places can be quite a challenge, so be sure to book ahead if you want to experience this brilliant kaiseki for yourself.
