"Two-Michelin-starred Narisawa was the first entry from Japan to make it into the list of the World’s 50 Best Restaurants in 2009. Now, the restaurant—which underwent a major revamp in 2023—is as popular as ever, and chef Yoshihiro Narisawa is in fine form. A pioneer of the farm-to-table movement in Japan, chef Narisawa emphasizes sustainable ingredients in innovative dishes that draw inspiration from Japanese, Chinese, and French cuisine. The effortlessly bilingual staff—still a rarity in Tokyo—explains each course in detail but stops short of delivering a tableside lecture." - Melinda Joe
