Spring visit to the acclaimed tempura establishment. Highlights of the meal were the Anago per usual, the Uni-Shiso wrap, and the seasonal mountain Shiitake.
Saotome-san was dead silent throughout the whole meal, solely focused on preparing each ingredient.
Definitely not the best shop in terms of cost-performance ratio, I imagine many diners pay their visits for head chef’s decades worth of dedication to tempura.

I’m thinking of going in May, would you recommend I look elsewhere?
I think the price is quite fair for a high-end tempura restaurant in Tokyo. I went in 2019 and loved it, much more than Kondo.
