The Restaurant

Tenjimbashi Aoki, a distinguished kaiseki restaurant in Osaka's Kita district, offers an intimate dining experience with only eight seats. This establishment has earned two Michelin stars, a testament to its culinary excellence and meticulous attention to detail. The chef's dedication extends to every aspect of the restaurant, from the carefully chosen furnishings to the exquisite crockery and seasonally inspired motifs. The tasting menu showcases refined craftsmanship, with a strong emphasis on appetizers adorned with foraged leaves. Rice, cooked in earthenware pots, is often paired with marinated fish, creating a harmonious blend of flavors and textures. The tranquil interior reflects the wabi-sabi philosophy, centered around a counter carved from a single piece of wood.
