Hachioji, Tokyo, Japan｜Ukai Chikutei

The most extensive, full scope Japanese garden and old tea house style restaurant. Nishiki gois to moss covered stone lanterns, to actual tea houses to kawara tile topped walls.... Excuisite is not enough to describe this place! The food was also impeccable. It was entertaining to go through the paths of decor, and also to have the seasonal delicacy shuffle your brain cells. Tasty isn't really enough to capture the experience of sitting in one of their many Japanese rooms in this place.

Such an incredible gem. I would rate it 5 starts on several axis. First, less important: convenience, very easy too access, without a long for front the motorway, yet once there it seems like you're hidden a different world. Second service: very kind, attentive, friendly... Little details everywhere, best toilet paper ever... Honestly... Third: the place is so peaceful, it looks like a little village with private house to have lunch, a little river, bamboo forest, trees all around. We went for lunch, dinner must be beautiful too. Last but not least, the food: even the 5k yens menu was really great and diverse. I would have the temptation to keep it secret, but it would be too selfish.

The environment is fantastic and superb. You can have most authentic Japanese Dinning experience here. Reservation prior to visit is needed as they only have private rooms available. Average expense for lunch set is a about 5000 yen per pax and it various from 8000yen per pax to 30000 yen per pax for prime courses.
