Tozentei

In a residential area near Kitano Tenmangu, this family-run restaurant occupies a converted former home. Japanese touches and a homely warmth give the space an inviting feel. The cooking lets the ingredients speak for themselves, while inventive pairings bring added interest. A signature dish is tilefish steamed with plums and kelp, inspired by the natural affinity between white fish and plums. Such subtle twists in flavour invite another sip of sake.
