Yokohama, Kanagawa, Japan｜KIKUCHI

This beautiful little restaurant is one place I want to keep all to myself. The owners are so wonderful, however, that it would be an absolute crime so I'll share. Tucked away on a back street in Honmoku you instantly feel transported to a deeply transcultural experience that delicately blends French, Italian, and Japanese traditions to amaze you. Vegetables are locally sourced from Kamakura and fresh seafood frequently from Hokkaido give a new appreciation for quality ingredients prepared with subtlety and care in every step. On our most recent visit, we went as a party of eight to celebrate a graduation, and the chef took this as an opportunity to prepare a special roast. Ordering a course meal gave him the flexibility to contribute to our celebration in his own way. It was phenomenal! If you don't speak Japanese, the owners are open-minded and warm so happy to communicate as much as possible. Reservations can be booked on-line.

I chose this restaurant for my wedding anniversary. This restaurant is run by a husband and wife team. From the reviews and the restaurant's website, I could really feel their commitment to food. Also, when I called, the response was very polite, and I had high expectations, and the many wonderful products that did not disappoint! In particular, the first dish of foie gras brûlée was delicious for the first time. The drink menu was carefully selected, from wine to non-alcoholic drinks. I'll bother you again. Thank you for the meal.

Christmas, I was able to reserve a seat that happened to be canceled the day before and was able to eat! The staff was friendly, the atmosphere was nice, and the food was delicious! This is also a relationship! It was a wonderful restaurant that I would like to go to eat slowly this time. Also thank you
