This is on the upper floors of the Strings Hotel at Shinagawa Station. I made a reservation in advance for a luxurious lunch (*^^*). I was guided to a counter seat in front of the teppan. They show you the meat before grilling, and it's amazing marbled meat. It's different from the meat you see at the supermarket ( ・`д・´). The chef grills the meat right in front of you! There's also a flambé time during the grilling process. I took out my smartphone and waited for it♪ It was impressive! After plating the meat, they also shaved some truffles. I couldn't really taste the truffles, but the meat melted in my mouth. It was exquisite ( ´∀｀ )b I also had burnt rice, rich miso soup, and dessert, making it a very satisfying lunch. The bill came out to about 40,000 yen for two people. It was a luxurious meal a few times a year. It was delicious♪

I was looking for a restaurant for a hotel lunch and chose Kazune-san, who can use ANA shareholder discount coupons. I made a reservation by phone, informed them of the use of shareholder discount coupons and parking, and asked about the parking situation. They mentioned that there was a wedding but since it was Saturday, business use was low, so parking should be fine. Since we chose a course meal for a few people, we were able to use the parking for 2 hours for free. It's convenient to be able to secure underground parking through the service, although there are restrictions. Since it was a same-day reservation, the counter was fully booked at the designated time. We were seated at a table, but it turned out to be the right choice! The semi-private room had a high ceiling up to the top floor, making it bright and spacious, and we could hardly feel the presence of the neighboring table, so we had a comfortable time. We chose the lunch course "Kazeon" where you can choose the main dish. The appetizer was bonito sashimi that day, with fresh bonito and the flavor of myoga and shiso making it delicious. The seasonal salad had a good variety of ingredients like eggplant and pumpkin, with persimmon dressing and chestnut dip being very tasty, and diced persimmons adding an accent. The steak was served with stir-fried bean sprouts and Moroccan shimeji mushrooms, along with wasabi paste, pink rock salt, and seaweed salt. I chose medium doneness for the sirloin, and it was cooked just right with a good aroma of fat and a refreshing aftertaste. I chose Takata no Yume rice, which was fluffy and well-cooked, and with the pickles provided, it was delicious until the end. The dessert was Kyoho grape sherbet, with a smooth texture and just the right amount of sweetness, and the fresh Kyoho grapes added a refreshing touch. A delicate edible flower was also included. Although I was given permission to take photos, when it was served in front of me, I was tempted by the aroma and appearance, and before I knew it, it became dessert. One thing that bothered me a little was that the chopsticks were placed beforehand, and if you're not careful when sitting down, they can easily catch on your clothes and fall off, and the garlic rice was at an additional cost. It would be better to have the chopsticks placed after being seated, even though it's a bit of a hassle, and if there are items that are at an additional cost, I think it should be mentioned on the website. The amount of the course was satisfying, the staff were friendly, and they also subtly reminded us to be careful of the step in the aisle. Overall, it's a restaurant with impeccable service. After leaving the restaurant, I used the restroom in the hotel on the same floor. The window side is all glass, and the handwashing area is also clean and well-maintained. Since it's on the upper floor, you can overlook Shinagawa Station with Shinkansen, Yamanote Line, Keikyu Line, and you can also see the greenery of Seisen Women's University and Mitsubishi Kaikodo.

◆September 2020, Tokyo〜Shinagawa◆Teppanyaki Fūon at Strings Hotel Tokyo◆Teppanyaki Dinner "Autumn Breeze" 13,000 yen (at that time) "I didn't know there was teppanyaki here~" At Strings Hotel Tokyo Intercontinental, known for Chinese restaurant China Shadow and Italian Melodia, I was surprised to find teppanyaki. It's a hidden space right behind the Cafe & Bar "Lutmos". Managed to slip in just before the last order for dinner at 8:00 pm. First, let's take a look at the menu. ◆Porcini Mushroom Teppanyaki Dinner "Autumn Breeze" ◇Appetizer: Fresh porcini slices with dried bonito flakes ◇Hokkaido King Crab Butter Roast ◇Black Wagyu Fillet with Porcini-flavored consommé ◇Garlic rice with porcini ◇Dessert & Drink "The King Crab ran out, so I'll have the Prawn instead" A sudden mishap, leaving only one choice... lunch was King Crab, right? (laughs) Explained the situation and changed to Prawn. The fresh porcini aroma was weak, perhaps due to a shortage of matsutake mushrooms. It might be good to lightly sear them. The combination with dried bonito flakes was not quite there. The prawn that replaced the King Crab was large and of good quality. It was delicious, but the chef seemed a bit nervous... The A4-grade female black wagyu fillet had a smooth texture, and it might be better to grill the porcini mushrooms. The garlic rice with chewy rice crackers was quite good. Overall, in terms of this menu composition, the cost performance is a bit lacking. In other words, it's expensive. Another issue is that the sommelier did not provide a pairing course tailored to the dishes. The only staff member who helped with drinks was a lady who had a traditional Japanese restaurant vibe, so there was no consultation, and I had to make my own choices. Where did the 15% service charge go? The total bill for two people was 48,000 yen. This may be a slightly harsh comment, but as it is the renowned Strings Hotel, I believe this is a fair evaluation of the experience. I sincerely hope for further skill improvement from Chef Takizawa...☆ ◇Food & Taste 3.5 ◇Service 3.4 ◇Atmosphere 4.0 ◇Cost Performance 3.3 ◇Drinks 3.3 Thank you for the meal✋I will visit again when I have the chance‍♂️ ◆Rating ⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ 3.4⭐︎ #YumesakiGuide #Foodie #Accommodation #Travel #Trip #HotSpring #BlackWagyu #Seared #LuxuriousSmallPortions #Foodstagram #Tabelog #FemaleWagyu #JapaneseBeef #SearedSushi #Steak #Teppanyaki #Soba #Ribeye #Chateaubriand #Meatstagram #Sashimi #BoushuuPrawn #IseEbi #Abalone #Ikura #Uni #Gourmet #Yumemisaki #Bakunos #NostalgicTravelSpace

There is a café and bar area beyond the lobby on the 26th floor, with a restaurant called Fuanon at the back. It's hard to tell what the restaurant looks like since there are no photos on the website or floor map. It's not like a teppanyaki restaurant, but more like a breakfast venue where they cook eggs at the counter with chairs for seating. It's not divided like the Chinese restaurant on the same floor, but more like an open kitchen with chairs. The chef is polite and the food is decent, but they have a wine cellar without a wine list, and the prices for the same drink vary on different menus. I didn't have breakfast, but I assume that's where they serve hot meals in the morning. I had to ask for dessert and move to another seat, as it seemed like dessert would have been served at the same spot if I hadn't asked. It's common to move seats during dessert in teppanyaki restaurants, so the service at this hotel restaurant was disappointing. The staff seemed scarce and it was inconvenient to find someone. It's okay for casual dining, but not recommended for special occasions or important events as it may be embarrassing for the host.

I had a delicious Kobe beef steak on this day. The portion was a bit small, and the drinks were a bit expensive.
