About Kutan
Kutan: A Superb Japanese Dining Experience Weaving Tradition and Innovation
Nestled in Shin Tomi-cho, the hidden gem "Kutan" is where Mr. Kotaro Nakajima, the owner and seasoned chef, creates ingenious dishes that marry traditional Japanese cuisine with innovative twists, drawing from his extensive training both in Japan and abroad.
The seasonal ingredients are used to their fullest potential, offering delicately balanced flavors and exquisite presentation that captivate all five senses.
The interior boasts an elegant blend of white and vermilion, providing a contemporary yet distinctly Japanese ambiance. Guests can enjoy the immersive experience of watching skilled chefs at work from the counter seats, while private rooms offer the perfect setting for intimate gatherings.
True to its name, which embodies the wish for dishes filled with sincerity ("tan") to be eternally cherished ("ku"), Kutan delivers heartwarming hospitality and an unparalleled Japanese dining experience.
For those seeking a memorable time in Tokyo, Kutan is highly recommended.
