Kanda is a Michelin 3 star restaurant so one starts with high expectations and indeed these were met. The restaurant is small, with a bar that seats 9 poepol overlooking where M. Kanda and his assistant prepare the meal. There is also a private room as well. The staff was very attentive and professional. Their recommendations for various sake and wine to accompany each dish were spot on. The meal consists of a series of small plates cooked in a variety of styles as is customary for a Kaiseke restaurant. Tonight the meal featured a number of courses featuring matsutake mushrooms with alone or part of a dish. The staff is welcoming and friendly without being overbearing. I would definitely go back again. The only caveat is that restaurant is in a residential building and there is no sign outside. I had a photo of the front door so could find it without trouble, but otherwise it might be hard t find.

I love that there are so many places to eat when you step out of Kanda station! Great selection of ramen shops, yakitori, tempura. There are also non-Japanese cuisine offerings like Italian available here. Make sure to install the Google Translate app to help you with the menus and the vending machines.
