Hiyama

A refined kaiseki retreat in Kawaguchi, where every dish traces the quiet shifts of the Japanese seasons.

Dining

Kaiseki, Seasonal Cuisine, Hidden Destination

MK Guide Recommends

Far from Tokyo’s fine dining spotlight, Hiyama in Higashi-Kawaguchi quietly maintains the rigor and elegance of traditional kaiseki. With only a handful of counter seats and private rooms tucked into a modest multi-tenant building, the restaurant feels more like a secret known only to those who seek it out. Seasonal ingredients take the lead, whether in pristine sashimi, delicately grilled fish, or Kyoto-style vegetable dishes, all plated with studied restraint. Chef Hiyama’s philosophy centers on harmony—between presentation, temperature, and flavor—with each course unfolding as part of a broader rhythm. This is a place for slow meals and attentive conversation, best reserved for quiet celebrations or culinary reflection.
