What Our Guests Say

Wonderful dinning experience

Sep 2024 • couples
“We had a meal at Ise Sueyoshi on the 27 Sep. it was such a wonderful experience. The moment we stepped in, we had a warm welcomed by Nori-San who ensured we were comfortable throughout the entire meal. Throughout the dining experience, nori-San paid extra attention to the customers and make sure we are well taken care off. One of the main highlights of the night was the chance to chat with Chef Tanaka himself. I asked him about his hometown and why he decided to open a restaurant in Tokyo. Chef Tanaka spoke vividly about his father’s restaurant back in Mie Prefecture and how that inspired his culinary journey. It had always been his dream to open a restaurant in Tokyo and indeed it is a is a dream come true for him! Each of Chef Tanaka dishes reflected his connection to his roots, and during the dinner, he shared how he carefully selected ingredients from Mie Prefecture, some of the background of the suppliers. His precision in extracting these flavors and presenting them with such artistry made every course feel like a piece of his story. A particularly thoughtful moment was when Chef Tanaka surprised us with a printed photo and a handwritten note to commemorate my wife’s birthday. This personal touch was truly a reflection of the care and attention that Ise aspires to provide a unique experience to their guest. Ise Sueyoshi is really an exceptional restaurant and it’s no surprise that it has earned the title of best restaurant in the Tokyo area on TripAdvisor. Definitely a restaurant not to be missed if you’re looking for an exceptional dining experience in Tokyo.” — [Guest Review]
