Restaurant Details

Ren Mishina — formerly known as Ren — is a restaurant for those who want a slow, contemplative meal, led by a chef who values the philosophical side to Japanese kaiseki cooking. Traditional Japanese art and philosophy are as much about wholehearted sincerity as practical skill, and both are on full show here.

Mishina Jun is the owner and chef, who chose the district of Ginza for the restaurant’s location. It's there that Ren Mishina has staked its claim among the extremely competitive "battleground" of kaiseki restaurants here., just a few blocks north of Shimbashi Station.

Though a battle to retain its title as top dog is fierce, the restaurant is the very picture of elegance and serenity. The name "ren" refers to the Japanese lotus flower, a painting of which is the first thing that guests lay eyes on when they enter. After taking a seat at the counter, guests are then served dish after dish of fine seasonal ingredients. The exact dishes change according to the ingredients in season, and the flashes of inspiration which Chef Mishina derives from them.

To Chef Mishina, simplicity is all about deeply understanding the ingredients in front of him, and releasing the essential flavors which are already innately in them. The result is one of the best traditional Japanese meals in Tokyo.
