About KOKYU

KOKYU is a “culinary laboratory” where you can enjoy dishes that ingeniously blend tea as a spice, accompanied by a selection of delightful drinks.

Tucked away in Tokyo’s Oshiage district, a quaint warehouse of approximately 30m² welcomes guests with an iron door. The entrance, reminiscent of a tea room, requires visitors to bow slightly upon entry to avoid bumping their heads.

The interior of the restaurant reveals a distinctive worldview, with shelves at the front displaying a diverse array of ceramics from different countries and periods.

The restaurant name “KOKYU” reflects the philosophy of infusing new life into aged or faded objects and techniques. The restaurant features a rotating seasonal menu, complemented by original cocktails and tea-based pairing drinks, designed to offer a unique and memorable gastronomic experience.
