About our food
What are à la carte days?
“À la carte” is a style of dining in which you choose and order dishes 1 plate at a time, picking what you would like to eat from the menu. We normally serve courses only, but a few times a month, on irregular dates, we hold “à la carte days.” On these days, both lunch and dinner are à la carte, and we also prepare dishes we cannot serve in our courses.
Only on these days are children below junior high school age also welcome. On these days, we do not take course bookings. We do take bookings for à la carte seats (if you are coming with children, please book by phone). We announce the dates in the at the bottom of the page and on Instagram.

How do you handle allergies?
Please let us know; we will do our best to accommodate you. However, we cannot make changes for ingredients essential to our cooking, such as olive oil, cheese and wheat, because the flavor of the dishes would change. Also, as everything is prepared in the same kitchen, we cannot rule out cross-contact with trace amounts. Please write the ingredients you are allergic to, and how severe the allergy is, in the question field on the booking page (foods you dislike / allergies).
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept cash, major credit cards (VISA / JCB / Diners Club / American Express / Discover / Mastercard), transit IC cards (Kitaca / Suica / PASMO / ICOCA / manaca / TOICA / SUGOCA / nimoca / Hayakaken), iD and QUICPay.
