About Arakicho Tenpaku

“Arakicho Tempaku” is a restaurant specializing in tempura, which was opened by the owner in the hope that people would appreciate the taste of tempura.

His tempura, which is the result of his refined knowledge and skills acquired through his training at a high-class hotel in Tokyo, is a collection of exquisite dishes that can only be tasted here.

You can enjoy delicious yet light tempura made with seasonal ingredients from all over Japan.

The owner has selected more than 10 varieties of Japanese sake to be served at any given time, and there are also wines selected to pair with the tempura.

The restaurant has both a counter and a private room, and its cozy and inviting atmosphere is filled with the owner’s desire to create a restaurant that can be used for all kinds of occasions without being overbearing.

Please enjoy your gastronomic time to your heart’s content while conversing with the owner over the counter.

    Fabulous experience in a cozy, warm restaurant. We had the omakase meal, it was exquisite from start to finish. The recommended sake was excellent, we ordered more. We visited from the U.S., so we knew it would be nothing like we’ve had before, but it completely exceeded my expectations. I appreciated the hospitality of the chef and hostess too!

    Love this place. Chef and service were very friendly. They allowed my baby in the small private room they have. All the food quality and flavour was great.

    I recently enjoyed the Omakase course lunch at Arakicho Tenpaku and it was outstanding! The friendly staff made me feel welcome, and the reservation process through Omakase was seamless. The tempura was the best I've ever had, with a unique flavor from "Taihaku sesame oil." The ingredients were carefully selected and showcased the chef's expertise. The ambiance in the elegant Arakicho district added to the overall experience. Highly recommend for an unforgettable culinary journey!
