Full description

Yamazato is the Japanese restaurant of the Okura Hotel, serving upscale cuisine in a traditional setting with waitresses in kimono. Reviewers describe delicate, quietly balanced dishes rather than bold, heavy flavours, and many mention it as a place for anniversaries and birthdays, with attentive staff adding small personal touches.
