"Insatiable curiosity about all things tempura is this restaurant’s driving force. The chef blazes his own trail, unencumbered by convention. In a one-of-a-kind technique, the chef prepares his batter using two types of water as well as liquid nitrogen. One menu item features chilled sea urchin on deep-fried perilla leaf, creating a contrast of cold and hot. Inventive dishes are slipped in between menu items, varying the pace. The chef takes pride in offering an extensive range of tempura pieces, letting his imagination run free." - Michelin Inspector

"Chef Motoyoshi's deep-fried delicacies are fantastically light, sheathed in a crisp coating of golden batter that owes its crunch to a mixture of canola and sesame oil. He has a knack for vegetables, which he ferries from Tsukiji market on the back of his motorbike every day. Among his signatures are succulent Takagime peppers from Kyoto, pudding-like croquettes of sweet Japanese corn, and myoga wild Japanese ginger buds." - Melinda Joe

This two-Michelin-starred restaurant offer a unique blend of premium ingredients. The tempura coating is thin and crispy. There are only 8-9 seats available, and reservation are required.

My wife and I dined at Motoyoshi Tempura tonight, a delightful and unforgettable dining experience for both of us. The skill level of tempura presented by the chef at Motoyoshi was in my personal experience the best tempura I had tried in Japan. Each serving was beautifully presented and perfectly cooked at the right timing and temperature that preserved the taste of the ingredient. The chef had demonstarted his skills as a well deserved Michelin two stars chef. The tempura was covered with a thin layer of crispy tempura batter that was delicious and not oily. A new benchmark of how a great tempura should taste like for me. Thank you chef and your teams for the best tempura dining experience tonight.

Everything at Tempura Motoyoshi is absolutely top-tier from the food and service to the atmosphere. Chef Motoyoshi presented tempura with an paper-thin coating that perfectly stick to the ingredients. I was deeply impressed by the dedication and passion from chef's work and his smile.

Never had such luxurious tempura! Each dish was crafted perfectly and the chef was very pleasant in explaining each dish and how to eat it. Space is very intimate and cosy with just 8 seats. There is even a take away rice ball that was presented to us before leaving. Photos don’t do justice to the food lol
