Restaurant Details

Only the best of the best elements are chosen to be served at this elegant Italian restaurant, presenting the most excellent of delicious grilled meats, cooked slowly over charcoal fire to condense the flavors and make the center tender and juicy. Principio is a chic but reasonably-priced restaurant which also serves as a great after-dinner wine bar.

Chef Teruhito Negishi uses his well-honed culinary abilities to interpret the established practices and theory of Italian cooking, thereby generating a whole new method of preparation which is all his own.

Handpicking the seasonal ingredients himself — including horse and Ezo deer meat, domestic wagyu beef from Miyazaki, Ozaki, and Hokkaido (sourced from famous butcher shops), and matured pork and shorthorn beef from Kagoshima — the chef challenges himself daily to curate the best dishes from supremely juicy charcoal-grilled meat.

Join Principio on a journey from entrata all the way to el fine of the most authentic and of highest grade Italian cuisine — a journey which will leave you satisfied, yet dying to return again soon.
