Hakuun Tokyo

Hakuun sits on 4 Chome, Minamiaoyama. This contemporary Japanese and sushi restaurant holds a Michelin star.

The room runs smart and elegant, but the real draw is the location. While most tourists cluster around Omotesando, this address offers a reprieve fifteen minutes away from the main thoroughfare. Choosing Hakuun over the crowded sushi counters closer to the station is a tactical decision; you trade the convenience of the high-traffic districts for a quieter, more focused experience. It is a better choice for a focused meal than its neighbours, which often sacrifice intimacy for the sake of higher volume.
