Izayaka, Modern Japanese, Hidden Spot
MK Guide Recommends
Utsutsuyo (現つ世), meaning “this fleeting world,” is an appropriate name for this quiet second-floor restaurant in Honmachi. Accessible only by reservation, the space offers a peaceful, counter-focused experience that combines seasonal Japanese ingredients with creative, sometimes theatrical presentation. The course menu changes every month, often blending traditional flavors with unexpected touches. Situated above a curry shop and marked only by a small sign, Utsutsuyo remains deliberately elusive—designed for those who appreciate detail, intimacy, and surprise in their dining experience.
