The Top 100 Restaurants Near il Pregio
-
Rank 1. il Pregio
Italian
-
Rank 2. Shigeyuki
Japanese
-
Rank 3. Hibino Chūka Shokudō
Sichuan
-
Rank 4. jeeten
Chinese
The sign out front promises "Chinese home cooking, Yoshida style," and the menu delivers a footnote alongside each dish explaining what it does for your body, mapo tofu for the appetite, black vinegar sweet and sour pork for fatigue. It's a small, informal Chinese restaurant built around yakuzen, the tradition of medicinal cooking. The Beatles play in the background, which pairs oddly well with restorative food. The Michelin Guide awarded it a Bib Gourmand.
-
Rank 5. REI
Chinese
The menu reads like a neighborhood Chinese restaurant that went to culinary school and came back with ideas. This casual Shibuya spot runs on the concept of "neo-machichuka," tweaking the familiar with shifts in texture and aroma rather than reinventing the wheel entirely. The dishes land somewhere recognizable but slightly surprising, which is a harder trick than it sounds. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand.
-
-
Rank 7. Shiomachi
Japanese
The name means waiting for the right tide before pushing out to sea, and the chef seems to have taken it literally. This Japanese fish restaurant on the second floor in Uehara is built around a daily run to Toyosu Market, where the chef chats up brokers and bleeds the fish on the spot to lock in freshness. The room draws people the way a good harbor does, which was more or less the point from the start.
-
Rank 8. Le Cabaret
French
-
Rank 9. La façon Koga
French
-
Rank 10. Keichitsu
French, Western
The restaurant takes its name from the old Japanese micro-season marking the moment insects stir back to life in early March, which tells you something about how the chef thinks. This is contemporary French cooking shaped by a close attention to what's growing and waking outside, with a single plate often carrying one main ingredient roasted, pureed, and sauced all at once. Yuzu and Japanese pepper quietly move things along with the seasons.
-
Rank 11. Cristiano's
Portuguese
-
Rank 12. Roku
French, Western
A French counter restaurant where the counter seats exactly six, which is also what the name means, so the math is settled before you sit down. The chef cooks close enough to touch, ferments with koji and miso, and builds dishes around edible wild plants his mother forages in Nagano. His father makes the wooden trays by hand. Dessert belongs to the proprietress. It is an intimate, family-threaded place that feels less like a restaurant than someone's very skilled living room.
-
Rank 13. Sincère
French, Western
-
Rank 14. Raisan
Japanese
-
Rank 15. Kyoryori Aun
Japanese
The chef here runs on a single idea, "zanshin," a concept of lingering awareness, which in practice means a Japanese dining room in Tomigaya where Kyoto technique quietly shapes everything on the table. Kombu dashi turns up from the first appetizer to the closing rice dish. Tuna sashimi arrives as Kyoto-style sushi paired with egg-yolk soy sauce, and tempura gets an agedashi treatment nobody saw coming.
-
Rank 16. DIALOGUE
French
A French bistro tucked into a Setagaya residential neighborhood by a chef and sommelier who've been pushing each other since their apprentice days. The menu is deliberately sprawling, the idea being that too many good options forces a conversation. Lunch runs prix fixe; dinner goes à la carte with the kind of French classics that feel like old friends. A Michelin Bib Gourmand, and the sort of local spot that actually becomes one.
-
Rank 17. l'élan
French, Western
-
Rank 18. Shizuru
Kappo Japanese
-
Rank 19. Los Reyes Magos
Catalan
-
-
Rank 21. Den
Japanese
The omakase opens with a wafer sandwich of foie gras and miso, which sets the tone for what Den is doing: Japanese fine dining that refuses to be solemn about itself. Two Michelin stars and a spot on the World's 50 Best lists, and the room still runs on actual warmth rather than ceremony. The chef's whole project seems to be making sure you leave having had fun, and it works.
-

Rank 23. LATURE
French, Western
-
Rank 24. UNE IMMERSION
Modern French
-
Rank 25. Monolith
French, Western
-
Rank 26. Kinoshita
French
-
Rank 27. Narisawa
Fusion, Creative, Western
The menu pivots daily around what the land and sea actually offer, a practice Yoshihiro Narisawa calls satoyama cuisine, rooted in Japan's old tradition of farming the flatlands and foraging the mountain edges. This two-Michelin-star fine dining room in Aoyama, ranked in the World's 50 Best, plates that philosophy on lacquerware and washi, so the tableware is part of the argument. Omakase format, serious prices, and the kind of silence that means everyone is paying attention.
-
Rank 28. Regalo
Italian
-
Rank 29. L’Effervescence
French, Western
A bowl of steaming risotto, drawn from the tradition of freshly cooked rice in chakaiseki, arrives early and sets the tone for everything that follows. This is a three-Michelin-star contemporary French restaurant in Nishiazabu where Shinobu Namae builds prix fixe menus around Japanese producers and seasons. The meal closes with a weak matcha tea borrowed from the Sowa tea ceremony, which is a quietly elegant way of telling you it's time to go.
-
Rank 30. Tamawarai
Soba
The chef mills his own buckwheat, some of it grown in his own garden, to coax out an aroma that pre-ground flour can't touch. This quiet soba shop in Jingumae serves coarse-ground seiro with a wild, earthy depth that makes the usual lunch-counter bowl feel like a different food entirely. Evenings shift to a prix fixe format with small courses built around buckwheat in forms well beyond the noodle.
-
Rank 31. Orchestra
Italian
Plates printed with tiny musical instrument motifs hint at the philosophy behind this Italian restaurant in Yoyogi: the chef trained in Emilia-Romagna, where he came to believe a kitchen runs like an orchestra, every section in service of the whole. Classical music plays in the dining room while the kitchen turns out regional Italian cooking that takes that idea seriously enough to name the whole place after it.
-
Rank 32. Sazenka
Chinese–Japanese fine dining
Twelve seats inside a former diplomat's residence in Minami-Azabu, where the chef fuses Chinese cooking with Japanese kaiseki sensibility and a deep reverence for tea. The concept has a name to match its ambition: "sa" for tea, "zen" for meditation, "ka" for Chinese, collapsed into a single word. Three Michelin stars and a spot on the World's 50 Best list have made reservations a project. Come prepared for a tasting menu and no casual drop-ins.
-
Rank 33. Myojaku
Japanese
A nine-seat counter in a basement on a quiet Nishiazabu residential street, which tells you almost everything about the mood before the food arrives. Myojaku holds three Michelin stars and a spot on Asia's 50 Best, and the 14-course French-leaning omakase is built around a quietly radical idea: submarine spring water instead of the usual kombu-and-dashi backbone, letting seasonal vegetables and seafood argue for themselves without reinforcement.
-
Rank 34. Joël Robuchon
French, Western
The guéridon trolley still rolls through the dining room, which tells you everything about the register of this three-Michelin-star French restaurant inside a mock château in Ebisu. The kitchen carries Joël Robuchon's name and his exacting ambition, with the chef using Japanese ingredients to pull classic French gastronomy somewhere new. Wear your good jacket and clear your evening.
-
Rank 35. Tempura Motoyoshi
Tempura, Japanese
A two-Michelin-star tempura counter in Shibuya where the chef mixes batter with two types of water and liquid nitrogen, which tells you right away that convention is not the priority here. The omakase moves at its own tempo, with inventive interludes breaking up the procession of fried things. Cold sea urchin on a hot perilla leaf is the kind of detail that sounds gimmicky until you try it.
-
Rank 36. Higashiyama Muku
Japanese
The name means "pure" or "immaculate," and the all-white room makes the point before anything arrives at the table. This is a Michelin-starred Japanese kaiseki restaurant where the chef still sources crab, abalone, and sea perch from the fishmonger back in Shimane Prefecture where he trained. The meal closes with takikomi-gohan, then somen or curry to settle the palate, a traditional arc delivered with enough quiet wit that it never feels like a lecture.
-
Rank 37. Azabu Kadowaki
Japanese
A six-seat counter in Azabujuban, a private room with a ceiling so low the Michelin Guide notes guests can feel each other's breathing, and a chef whose kaiseki-style tasting menus hold three Michelin stars. The kitchen leans into seasonality with a quiet intensity drawn from tea-ceremony culture, where restraint is the whole point. The truffle rice has become something of a calling card. Book well ahead, dress accordingly, and bring your listening ears.
-
Rank 38. ess.
Italian
-
Rank 39. Miyasaka
Japanese
A framed motto from tea master Sen no Rikyu sets the tone at this kaiseki restaurant in Minami-Aoyama, where the chef trained in Kyoto's chakaiseki tradition and still approaches every service as though it were his first. Rice comes out the moment it's ready so you can watch it change as the steam rises. The meal closes with handmade sweets and strong matcha, following wabicha tea ceremony etiquette. It holds a Michelin star.
-
Rank 40. Hakuun
Japanese
Bonito is shaved and dashi drawn tableside, which tells you something about how seriously this Minami-Aoyama kaiseki restaurant takes the gap between "just made" and "good enough." The name is a Zen phrase for a cloud drifting without attachment, and the kitchen seems to take that literally, bending tradition toward char-grilled beef and straw-roasted game without announcing it as a departure. Two Michelin stars.
-
Rank 41. Lien
French
-
Rank 42. Ensui
Japanese
The name translates to "flame and water," and the kitchen takes that pairing as a serious manifesto. This intimate Japanese restaurant in Nakameguro holds two Michelin stars and centers everything on a stew built from water sourced in Kagoshima, dashi pulled from aged kombu and bonito, and soup ingredients kissed by charcoal smoke. It reads like a quiet obsession made edible, course by careful course.
-
Rank 43. Florilège
French, Western
Counter seating wraps three sides of an open kitchen at this contemporary French tasting-menu restaurant, so the cooking is more or less a live performance. Chef Hiroyasu Kawate trained in Montpellier and came up under Quintessence's Shuzo Kishida, and the menus now lean heavily plant-forward, local produce carrying more weight than the meat and seafood. Two Michelin stars and a spot on the World's 50 Best.
-
Rank 44. mærge
French, Western
A Michelin-starred modern French restaurant in Minami-Aoyama whose name fuses the French word for "margin" with "merge," which turns out to be a fair description of the cooking. Prix fixe menus run classic French technique alongside something more restless and contemporary, and the two don't so much compete as quietly negotiate. The room is calm and considered, the kind of place where the chef has clearly thought hard about what a blank canvas is actually for.
-
-
Rank 46. NéMo
French, Western
-
Rank 47. PEZ
French
-
Rank 48. abysse
French, Western
The dining room is kept dark, like something submerged, and the menu follows the same logic: a Michelin-starred French contemporary restaurant built around the idea that mountain streams become rivers that feed the sea. The chef's obsession with seafood started in Marseilles and landed here, in Ebisu, as a kind of philosophical project, Japanese ingredients folded into French technique with the seasons doing most of the arguing.
-
Rank 49. MAZ
Creative, Western
Virgilio Martinez, the Lima chef behind Central, planted this fine dining project in Tokyo to map Peru's ecosystems through a Japanese lens. Two Michelin stars and a spot on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants list followed fast. Courses arrive with names like Ocean Haze and Woods in the Highland, and an ancient Andean potato-roasting technique gets reworked with bamboo shoots and wild mountain vegetables. Peru and Japan, it turns out, share a seriousness about where food comes from.
-
Rank 50. CRAFTALE
Modern French
-
Rank 51. Héritage by Kei Kobayashi
French, Western
-
Rank 52. Ryuzu
French, Western
A watch crown, "ryuzu" in Japanese, is the small knob that sets everything in motion, which tells you something about how seriously this basement-level contemporary French restaurant in Roppongi takes the idea of precision. Two Michelin stars. The kitchen draws on ingredients from Niigata and the Noto region, and the brigade of chefs, patissiers, and sommeliers moves through service with the kind of coordinated quiet that makes formal dining feel effortless rather than stiff.
-
Rank 53. Prisma
Italian
A solo chef running a tightly seated Italian dining room in Minami-Aoyama, where the menu arrives with no prototypes and no compromises. The chef holds himself to a standard where reinvention is the baseline, not the occasional flourish, and the flowers, the music, and the plating all answer to the same scrutiny as the food itself. It holds two Michelin stars, and the room is small enough that he means it.
-
Haiku written by the chef appear on the menu here, which tells you something about the register of the place before the food arrives. This is a tempura counter in the kaiseki mold, a Michelin-starred basement room where pieces come one at a time and the meal moves through appetizers, soup, and sashimi alongside the frying. The chef calls it Ten-Masa Kaiseki, a family inheritance he's quietly expanded into something the seasons can actually speak through.
-
Rank 55. itsuka
Chinese
A prix fixe Chinese restaurant on the second floor in Minami-Aoyama, with a Michelin star, where the menu reads like a culinary autobiography: Sichuan discipline on one page, Taiwanese restraint on the other, Japanese ingredients threading through both. The house-made doubanjiang and mala sauce arrive on the appetiser platter, bold and delicate trading turns. The name roughly means "to cherish," and the kitchen takes that rather literally.
-
Rank 56. Kagurazaka Ishikawa
Japanese
-
Rank 57. Katsuo Shokudo
Japanese
A katsuobushi shaver sits at the center of the counter, and everything follows from that. This small set-menu restaurant in Shibuya's basement level is built entirely around bonito, from the grilled fish to shaved flakes over rice to the miso soup drawn from bonito broth. The chef handles the shaver the way a craftsperson handles a good tool, with care and a clear point of view. A Michelin Bib Gourmand.
-
Rank 58. Crony
Western, Creative
A cup of tea greets you at the door, and the same leaves come back as ice cream at the end of the meal. That loop captures what this two-Michelin-star contemporary French restaurant in Higashiazabu is doing: a minimal-ingredient philosophy shaped by fermentation, pickling, and roasting, with French and Scandinavian technique applied to Japanese produce. The open kitchen means you catch every move the team makes. It holds a spot on Asia's 50 Best list, and earns it quietly.
-
Rank 59. Yakumo
Noodles
A wonton ramen shop in Meguro where the whole point is the wonton, which comes in two kinds: pork with ginger or shrimp, each with a noticeably different texture. Order the Tokusei if you want both. Then you pick your soup, white dashi or black dashi or a mix of the two, and your noodles, thin or flat. It's a lot of decisions for a bowl of ramen, but nobody seems to mind. The Michelin Guide awards it a Bib Gourmand.
-
Rank 60. hakunei
French, Western
-
Rank 61. Seizan
Japanese
A basement kaiseki room where the chef trained in Gifu before bringing that discipline to Tokyo, earning two Michelin stars along the way. The young crew moves with a warmth that feels taught rather than performed. Traditional wansashi, the pairing of sashimi and soup that anchors Japanese cuisine, grounds a menu that otherwise keeps you guessing. The effort behind each course stays invisible, which is more or less the point.
-
Rank 62. Akasaka Kikunoi
Japanese
Guests are greeted with "Oide-yasu," a Kyoto dialect welcome that signals exactly what this two-Michelin-star kaiseki restaurant is doing: transplanting old Kyoto into central Tokyo, intact. The seasonal menu folds in yearly observances and the occasional Western ingredient without losing its footing, and you can eat at a tatami room or a counter depending on how formal you're feeling, which is a rarer choice than it sounds.
-
Rank 63. BOTTEGA
Italian, Western
-
Rank 64. Quintessence
French, Western
The menu at this three-Michelin-star contemporary French restaurant arrives with deliberate white space, leaving room, the chef says, for your imagination to do some of the work. Shuzo Kishida built the whole project around a trinity: the ingredient, the flame, and the seasoning, three ideas that sound simple until a piece of fish arrives cooked with an precision that makes you reconsider every fish you've eaten before.
-
Rank 65. Nogizaka Shin
Japanese
Concrete walls and a glass-enclosed kitchen give this kappo restaurant the feel of a modern tearoom, which turns out to suit it perfectly. The chef and sommelier both came up through Japanese restaurants in Paris, and that double fluency shows: seafood, citrus, and rice arrive from the chef's native Tokushima, while fermented Awa bancha tea quietly threads through the menu. Monthly pairing events keep the room thinking. One Michelin star.
-
The garden outside is a 400-year-old Japanese landscape dropped into the middle of central Tokyo, which sets an appropriately surreal tone for what follows. This Michelin-starred French restaurant inside Hotel New Otani Tokyo The Main is formal enough that you'll want to dress for it, with cooking that takes the classics seriously. One of over thirty restaurants on the sprawling property, it draws a crowd that came prepared.

Rank 70. Kanda
Japanese
-
Rank 71. JULIA
Western, Creative
Dinner at this Aoyama restaurant starts downstairs with an aperitif before guests move up to the main dining room, where the kitchen is fully on view. The chef and her sommelier husband run the room together, and the Japanese tasting menu leans hard into vegetables, pickled things, and foraged mountain produce. The converted house keeps the whole thing feeling like someone's very well-fed home, which is perhaps the point.

Rank 76. Mētis Roppongi
French, Western
Kumiko woodwork panels and lacquered counter trays set the tone before the food arrives at this intimate fine-dining room in Roppongi. The chef works over a wood flame, folding Japanese ingredients and seasons into French structure, which the house calls "wakon yosai," Japanese spirit with Western learning. The smoky warmth of the hearth hangs in the air throughout. It holds a Michelin star.
-
Rank 77. Édition Koji Shimomura
French, Western
-
Rank 78. Kohaku
Japanese
-
A casual Southeast Asian restaurant in Shibuya where the menu arrives flagged, literally, with the national colors of each dish's origin country. The kitchen draws on hawker traditions across Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia, then quietly swaps in Japanese ingredients. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand, which is about right for a room that feels less like a restaurant and more like wandering a night market with a very good sense of direction.
-
Rank 80. Alchimiste
French, Western
The chef grows their own vegetables and closes every meal with a financier, a pastry that doubles as a joke about the restaurant's name and the alchemist's obsession with gold. This Michelin-starred contemporary French spot in Shirokanedai takes a quiet but firm position: ingredients don't add up, they multiply. Sea and mountain produce arrive at temperatures calibrated to dissolve on contact, which sounds like a promise and more or less is.
-
Rank 81. La Gloire
French, Western
-
Rank 82. ShinoiS
Chinese
-
Rank 83. Tempura Miyashiro
Tempura Japanese
A one-Michelin-star tempura counter in Kamimeguro where the chef borrows freely from kaiseki tradition, wrapping shrimp in nori and deep-frying bamboo shoots that were simmered first. Wagyu goes in the fryer too, and the rice bowl topped with mixed tempura is its own thing entirely. A sesame and rice oil blend keeps everything lighter than you'd expect. It's classical Japanese technique, just with a restless imagination running the show.
-
Rank 84. BISTRO GLOUTON
French
A blackboard packed from top to bottom greets you at this compact counter bistro down a back alley in Ikejiri, listing everything from French regional classics to hamburger steaks and croquettes without any apparent sense of hierarchy. The menu stays fixed so the kitchen can keep its standards steady, which earns it a Michelin Bib Gourmand. "Glouton" means a wholehearted eater, and the place attracts exactly that.
-
Rank 85. Ten to Sen.
Vegan Noodles
-
Rank 86. EWIG
Modern Austrian
-
Rank 87. Kioichō Fukudaya
Japanese
A two-Michelin-star ryotei in Chiyoda where the room, the service, and the kaiseki arrive as a single considered act. The founding chef trained under Kitaoji Rosanjin, the near-mythological aesthete who argued that ingredients, not technique, decide a dish. The current chef holds that line quietly, sourcing with the seriousness of someone who took the philosophy personally rather than inherited it as a talking point.
-
Rank 88. Jushu
Japanese
A Eurasian magpie, the bird of Saga Prefecture, flies across the shop curtain and again on the cooks' whites, which tells you immediately how seriously this Japanese restaurant takes where it comes from. The chef sources rice, beef, and yuzu pepper from Saga, and serves them on antique Karatsu and Imari ware. Each dish arrives only after you've finished the last, Osaka-style, and nothing on the plate is decorative. It holds a Michelin star.
-
Rank 89. SÉZANNE
French, Western
The champagne list is organized by the town Sézanne borrows its name from, which tells you something about the level of thought going on here. This is a fine dining room on the seventh floor of the Four Seasons, designed by André Fu, with Tokyo's skyline sliding in after dark. The kitchen is glass-walled and fully on display. The team holds a spot on the World's 50 Best Restaurants, running a contemporary French tasting menu that folds in Japanese ingredients without making a fuss about it.

Rank 91. Kappo Muroi
Japanese
-
Rank 92. L'ARGENT
French, Western
A one-Michelin-star French restaurant in Kasumigaseki where the menu reads like a biography, Shizuoka-grown ingredients meeting time spent in Paris and Copenhagen. The chef pulls Kakegawa tea from their hometown into a foie gras torchon, and mushrooms from local producers go through fermentation before becoming soup. It's a precise, modern kitchen that earns its Nordic references without making a point of them.

Rank 98. RyuGin
Japanese
From January through March, the entire menu is fugu, full stop. The rest of the year, Seiji Yamamoto runs a fine dining kaiseki in Tokyo Midtown Hibiya that holds three Michelin stars, driven by the kind of technical precision that borders on the obsessive. Yamamoto has said he cooks because he loves cooking, which sounds obvious until you eat here and realize most people who say that don't mean it quite this much.
-
Rank 99. Tenoshima
Japanese
A Michelin-starred Japanese restaurant on the second floor of a Minami-aoyama building, Tenoshima is quietly personal: the name nods to the island where the chef's father was born, and the cooking stays tethered to that origin. Underused fish species and dried sardine broth anchor dishes that feel regional without being rustic. The room draws a deliberate crowd who've done their homework and know to let the chef lead.
-
Rank 100. Manoir
French
Paneled walls and hunting-lodge furniture give this French dining room in Hiro its name, and the game on the plate backs up the decor. Wild boar and venison come from hunters across Japan, their savory depth cut by the chef's habit of layering fruit against fermented and salt-pickled accents. The owner doubles as sommelier and pours the French wine himself. A Michelin-starred room where the food leans wilder than the setting suggests.
