Towa （常 （とわ））

Hidden in a quiet backstreet just steps from the Nishiazabu intersection, Towa opens its unmarked door without a sign or curtain, welcoming guests into a serene space far removed from the bustle of the city.

Here, the chef showcases his passion for the finest Kobe Wagyu from Kawagishi Farm, offering an authentic kappo-style dining experience that weaves together the flavors of Japan’s four seasons. The restaurant’s signature dish, Charcoal-Grilled Thick-Cut Wagyu Tongue, is celebrated for its extraordinary tenderness. Despite its thickness, it melts effortlessly on the palate, releasing the delicate sweetness of premium fat. Enhanced by the aroma of charcoal, the profound umami of Wagyu unfolds with every bite.

The multi-course menu follows the traditional kaiseki progression, seamlessly blending the refinement of Japanese cuisine with the richness of Wagyu. It begins with seasonal sashimi and soup, continues with oxtail spring rolls and charcoal-grilled tongue, and culminates in the main course of beef cutlet. Each dish embodies a harmony between delicate craftsmanship and the bold character of Wagyu, creating a one-of-a-kind dining experience.

Every element—from the chef’s movements and the choice of tableware to the selection of ingredients—is prepared with meticulous care and heartfelt intention.

Having trained at some of Japan’s most esteemed restaurants, the chef invites you to savor an exceptional moment where the elegance of the seasons and the depth of Wagyu come together in perfect balance.
