Tempura course boasting light flavor

We introduce you to the tempura course, where you can enjoy light fried food that uses naturally pressed flower oil to bring out the clean flavor and original taste of the ingredients.

The tempura course is a counter-style seating area centered around the chef, so you can directly hear about the ingredients and how to eat them, which is a big advantage.
