  • 4/5 北澤裕美[email protected] 10 months ago on Google • 242 reviews
    This restaurant is located on the 46th floor of Yokohama Kitanaka Knot, which is directly connected to the station from Bashamichi. This restaurant is produced by Jacob Janboerma, a 3-star Michelin chef who represents the Netherlands. The view is spectacular as you can see Minato Mirai. I used it for lunch. Overall, the taste was a little strong, but it looked beautiful and was delicious. The cost performance is also great!

    I was imagining more innovative dishes based on the colorful and pop-like presentation, but as the head chef said that he was inspired and influenced by visiting Japanese producers and restaurants, overall It was delicious with a delicate and gentle seasoning that felt the essence of Japan. The perfect location overlooking Minato Mirai gives it a special feel, and I'd like to visit again in different seasons.

    I visited to celebrate my birthday. I thoroughly enjoyed the innovative fusion of Japan✖️Dutch. Yokohama is the perfect place to enjoy cuisine full of international flavours, including not only Japanese and Dutch cuisine, but also Chinese and other Asian cuisine. All of the dishes seem to be innovative, and although they seem to be intricately combined, they are not overly complicated.In each dish, the individuality of the ingredients stands out and is fused together. You can't help but smile at the unimaginable deliciousness created by the unique combination of ingredients and spices, and the simplicity that shines through. I chose three wine pairings, and I was pleasantly surprised by how well they all matched. Not only the food, but also the wine selection, the view, the rustic tableware and cutlery, the table setting, the service, and the fun conversation I had with the humorous and loving chef. Thank you for making a special whole cake for me, who had a whole birthday cake jinx. Thank you 💞 It's been a wonderful birthday♪

  • 3/5 おにぎりごはん 4 months ago on Google • 4 reviews
    First of all, the view is amazing. I think you can enjoy it whether you go during the day or at night. The interior is high-end, which is what people are looking for these days, but it feels more luxurious than glittery, with a homely feel (fabric, wood, etc. are used rather than metal). I can't say that the cost performance is good in terms of price, but of course it's high class food and I don't think it's too expensive. All portions are small and of good quality. If you want a larger portion, we recommend choosing a higher priced course with many items. I also liked the fact that they called me over the phone to ask if there was anything I didn't like the day before. The dishes are visually pleasing, with unfamiliar ingredients and cooking methods. Lunch for two, including alcohol, cost about 35,000 yen. The reason for the 3 stars is that I was forced to watch the owner, a foreign chef, come directly into the hall and have long conversations with only foreign customers. It can't be helped that there is a language barrier, but they don't talk to Japanese customers at all, and only have long conversations with Western customers (without even greeting them). While I thought the friendly atmosphere was nice, it was a bit distracting to see a chef in a high-end restaurant only speaking to foreigners. However, as mentioned above, there is a good balance between a homely atmosphere and a sense of luxury, so perhaps the restaurant is free to do so. While thinking this, I feel like there are better places to eat in Japan. I gave it 3 stars for that reason.

    As other reviewers have said, the overall flavor is strong, so if you normally drink it lightly, it might be a bit harsh. Another thing I thought is that if you don't like aromatic herbs, it's better to let them know in advance. All of the dishes are visually appealing and are sure to fill your stomach. The bread was also very delicious and I wish they would sell the same thing. I will use it again if I have the opportunity.

    We went for lunch on our anniversary. The food is artistic, including the combination of ingredients, and the taste is surprising when you eat it, and the cost performance is good. However, I felt that the drinks, including carbonated water and beer, were expensive, with wine costing around 2,000 yen per glass.
