I used it for my mother's birthday. I wanted to treat her to a nice meal at a place where we could receive good service once in a while. That's why I chose the kaiseki course at Hinokizaka. The course starts with a pre-dinner drink. While the quality of each dish may not be mind-blowing, they are consistently above average. The selection of seasonal ingredients sparks conversation among family members. The attention to detail in service, such as explaining the meaning of the phrase "knowing contentment" written on a plate, impressed me. It was a satisfying experience to enjoy a high-quality meal with a good view of the night scenery. I would definitely visit again for a special occasion.

I visited for a birthday celebration. The sushi at the counter was delicious, and the view from the window was amazing. It was a lovely time. Men might not get full with just the sushi course, but as a woman, it was just right, a little bit satisfying. The birthday plate was so cute and made me happy. I will definitely come back for important occasions.

A sophisticated and elegant Japanese modern space that incorporates traditional beauty of Japan. The view of Tokyo from the counter enhances the deliciousness of the food even more! They value the unique flavors of seasonal ingredients and do not stick to specific regions, but rather use the best ingredients at that time to create the best dishes. The sushi was perfect and delicious. I definitely want to visit this restaurant again. It has become one of the top-ranked restaurants that I want to visit.

I received a coupon from Marriott, so I decided to use it. The food was delicious and satisfying. It was great to see the food being cooked right in front of me, and the ingredients were high quality. The sauce was also delicious. The garlic rice at the end was a bit different than expected, more like fried rice with less garlic flavor. It reminded me of the delicious garlic rice at Gourmands in Nikko.

"Hinokizaka" offers four areas of dining: banquet, sushi, tempura, and teppanyaki. They source the best ingredients from all over Japan according to the season, providing top-quality Japanese cuisine year-round. The menu includes dishes like lotus root tofu with sea urchin and rolled shrimp, foie gras chawanmushi, grilled seasonal fish, eel simmered in a box, and tempura with crab and seasonal vegetables. The meal ends with desserts like white peach blancmange and coconut warabi mochi. The drink menu features Suntory Master's Dream Pilsner, Batts and Hall Sonoma Coast Chardonnay, and the exclusive tea "HANA" for guests of The Ritz-Carlton Tokyo.

Hinokizaka, a Japanese restaurant located in The Ritz-Carlton Tokyo, is a place my family often visits. It truly has the Ritz vibe. However, my husband prefers Kikuzentei in the same Tokyo Midtown area. He loves the atmosphere there.

I went to "Hinokizaka" located on the 45th floor of The Ritz-Carlton Tokyo for a celebratory lunch on a special day. The hotel, located on the upper floors of a high-rise building, is luxurious and offers a great view!! The elegant and sophisticated atmosphere is very calming. The service at this lovely hotel is impeccable down to the smallest details. At Hinokizaka, you can enjoy teppanyaki, kaiseki, sushi, and tempura. It seemed like the eating location varied depending on the dish. This time, we ordered the Teppanyaki Hisui course for 11,500 yen, which included dishes such as Green eggplant and loofah with octopus in Tosazu jelly, Sweet and spicy fried Manjuya pepper, Sauteed sea bream with burnt butter sauce, Fresh salad with sesame dressing, Black wagyu beef fillet steak 60g, Seasonal grilled vegetables, Garlic rice, Miso soup, Pickles, and White coffee blancmange. The beautifully presented dishes were not only visually appealing but also delicious. The well-maintained teppan, carefully crafted dishes, and attentive service made for a truly satisfying experience. It was a fitting restaurant for a celebration! The green eggplant and loofah were served with a tangy dashi jelly and myoga, providing a refreshing taste. The chewy texture of the octopus added a nice touch. The sweet and spicy fried Manjuya pepper included dried young sardines and had a sweet yet robust flavor, making even a small portion satisfying. The sea bream was served with a burnt butter sauce. The skin was crispy and fragrant, while the flesh was tender and flavorful. The yellow sauce was made with grated zucchini and kombu dashi, resulting in a smooth and sweet sauce with a pumpkin-like flavor. The organic vegetable salad was a palate cleanser with a slightly bitter taste complemented by sesame dressing. The black wagyu beef fillet steak was cooked medium-rare and served with a variety of condiments such as Suzu salt, Cambodian black pepper, real wasabi, miso, soy sauce, ponzu, and sweet chili sauce. The steak was tender with a satisfying umami flavor. The garlic rice, made with onions, beef, shiso, and egg, had the perfect amount of oil coating the rice, giving it a fluffy texture. The crispy garlic chips on top added a flavorful touch. The creamy egg mixed in well, creating an elegant and fulfilling taste. For dessert, we had white coffee blancmange, which was sweet and firm. The chestnut paste on top was also delicious. All the dishes were delicious, and the ambiance of the restaurant was excellent. It was a wonderful experience to enjoy the elegant atmosphere and savor the dishes in a sophisticated manner, making it a memorable day.

The lunch was fantastic! My wife and I decided to treat ourselves to a lunch at the teppanyaki restaurant at The Ritz-Carlton Tokyo. We made a reservation and headed to the 45th floor restaurant called "Hinokizaka" with amazing views of the skyscrapers in Nishi-Shinjuku. The teppanyaki grill was on the opposite side of the view, allowing us to focus on our meal. We ordered the lunch set menu for around 10,000 yen, where you can choose between sirloin and filet. I recommend getting both if you're dining with someone else. The teppanyaki grill was spotlessly clean, contrasting with the chef's wall, designed with lattice and stripes. The quality of the teppanyaki was top-notch, and the combination of Cambodia's fresh pepper and garlic chips was outstanding. We ended the meal with garlic rice and left feeling satisfied and content. It was a truly elegant lunch experience. Thank you for the meal.

As expected of The Ritz-Carlton Tokyo. Everything was excellent and delicious. I had champagne, white wine, and red wine. The meat selection included fin, sirloin, and ichibo! Truly delicious. I also enjoyed the garlic fried rice and left satisfied!

I revisited the kaiseki restaurant "Hinokizaka" at The Ritz-Carlton Tokyo on the 45th floor, which is directly connected to Roppongi Station on the Oedo Line, after 7 months since last November. The appetizers of young ayu and foie gras chawanmushi, grilled kinmedai, nodoguro rice for the main course, and coconut warabi mochi for dessert were my favorites. Last time, there was a delay in the course due to the crowd, and I was rushed to pay the bill right after finishing, with a 2-hour time limit in mind. Considering these factors, I hesitated to revisit, but this time, the same staff as last time (who remembered me) apologized to me (I remembered the apologetic look on their face when bringing the bill last time, while laughing). This time, with only about 40% occupancy, I was able to relax and enjoy my meal.

In places like Kushiro, Nemuro, and Beppu, you can enjoy fresh sushi at a reasonable price, which is delicious. However, ultimately, the best ingredients tend to gather in Tokyo. Sushi is all about the skill of the chef and the taste of the rice, so I still think Tokyo is the best for sushi. This restaurant is one of the top sushi restaurants with strong competition and a large number of stores. Whenever I come here, the ikura donburi (served in a small bowl, not a traditional donburi) is delicious. Even the one thing I usually don't like, anago (conger eel), is soft and fluffy here, and absolutely delicious. It's hard to get a reservation, but I would love to visit again on some occasion.

I had seasonal tempura at Hinokizaka, a Japanese restaurant located on the 45th floor of the Ritz-Carlton in Roppongi. The tempura, fried right in front of me, was surprisingly light and delicious. Each ingredient was so tasty, making it a wonderful experience. I enjoyed it with a great wine, making it a luxurious time. When I mentioned that I liked red clam and conger eel, they switched the last course to sushi from the neighboring sushi restaurant. It was a special moment. The tempura was amazing, and the Montrachet wine was truly delicious. #foodstagram #food #eat #eating #foodie #foodphotography #tokyo_gourmet_report #fromtokyo #beautiful #eatlife #食べログ #食べスタグラム #東京グルメ #グルメ女子 #食べ歩き #ご飯記録 #おいしいごはん #グルメ #グルメ好きな人と繋がりたい #東ぐる #ひのきざか天麩羅 #ひのきざか #リッツカールトン東京 #リッツカールトン #カウンター天麩羅 #六本木グルメ #天麩羅 #天麩羅ディナー #夜景

The view is great on the 45th floor. The lunch kaiseki had a high-end hotel-like service. The atmosphere was nice. The food was okay. They seem to have unique sources for their fish, so you might get to try some rare ones. Today, I had some kind of Thai fish, I forgot the name.

I received a 10,000 yen discount coupon as a renewal benefit for the Marriott Amex, so I decided to use it to dine at the Ritz-Carlton teppanyaki restaurant, a place I wouldn't normally go to. The lobby of the Ritz-Carlton seemed to have an increase in inbound guests as the staff spoke to me in English rather than Japanese, and I was led to a dimly lit counter dedicated to teppanyaki. The course required a payment of over 20,000 yen, so I chose the Jade course. The appetizers were delicious with a gentle taste that complemented the rich meat that followed. The fish dish was prepared by grilling sea bream over medium heat before steaming, a technique that surprised me. The sauce had a thick consistency. The salad was particularly tasty, with sweet tomatoes and a dressing that suited my taste. Finally, the fillet steak was incredibly tender and flavorful, with no greasiness. The garlic rice cooked on the teppan was a must-try, as it was delicious. The green tea panna cotta had a strong matcha flavor, which was impressive. Overall, every dish was delicious, and I felt like I had discovered the ultimate dining experience at the Ritz-Carlton.

Perfect for celebrating with family and special occasions. This authentic Japanese restaurant is a rare find where families with children can enjoy without feeling intimidated. While adults savor their meal, children can have a great time enjoying the wonderful scenery. But most of all, the hospitality of the staff is outstanding. Recently, my elementary school daughter received a message card with a drawing of her favorite stuffed animal (which was cute and well done). This touched both her and me. It became a wonderful memory for my daughter. Thank you very much. We will definitely visit again. Thank you for the delicious meal.

Family lunch. We enjoyed the Teppanyaki Jade Course. We felt the arrival of spring while savoring the beautiful and delicious dishes. The chef's movements were so beautiful that we couldn't help but be mesmerized. Thank you for the happy time. Thank you for the meal!

A sushi restaurant where you can eat at the counter while enjoying the night view. Located within the Ritz-Carlton, it is a bit pricey but offers a satisfying atmosphere and taste. Orders are mostly in course meals. There is a wide variety of alcohol, including sake.

I love casual conveyor belt sushi restaurants and visit them a few times a year. Despite not being a big fan of recommendations, I decided to try this restaurant while staying nearby. The sushi chef was friendly and the staff were very welcoming. I forgot to take a photo of the sushi, but I was amazed by how beautiful it was. Each piece was carefully crafted and tasted delicious. Thank you for a wonderful experience. I will definitely be ordering the premium jasmine tea again.

I was invited by a friend who loves The Ritz-Carlton to 45F Hinokizaka, where we enjoyed a beautifully crafted kaiseki meal with a stunning view. The traditional Japanese multi-course meal was delicately prepared and each dish was delicious. The rice cooked with wild vegetables and the homemade warabi mochi dessert were particularly outstanding. I would love to visit again on a special occasion.

Gourmet activities are my favorite, especially dishes like katsudon, niboshi ramen, aged sushi, 100% buckwheat risotto, pasta, and raw meat dishes. I love all kinds of sardine dishes from the Yamagoya family. This is a daily diary of my hobby posts. I would be happy if you could follow me casually ⭐️

Family of four chose the teppanyaki course for lunch at 6400 yen. For the main dish, you can choose from yakiniku, roast beef, or sukiyaki. The recommended dish was the roast beef, so three of us chose that and one chose the yakiniku. Personally, I thought the yakiniku meat had a more condensed umami flavor and was delicious (the roast beef was also delicious of course). I was worried about the price of the course, but as you can see in the photo, the quality and quantity of the meat were good, so I thought it was a good value for money. However, I am a drinker, and I found the beer at 2000 yen per glass and the cheapest glass of wine at 2600 yen to be quite expensive for ordinary people like me. I would like to come back for some kind of special occasion in the future.
