About Kioicho Mitani
The larger sister to the well-known Mitani, Kioicho Mitani has thirteen seats at the main counter plus a private six-seat counter room. Chef Hiroyuki Takano leads a seasonal omakase, and the house signature is handing each piece of nigiri straight to the guest to keep the rice at temperature. Drink pairings run beyond sake into champagne and wine.
Tabelog reviewers call it a sought-after room with an elegant, refined atmosphere and a long string of Bronze awards. Diners posting online highlight the aged skill behind dishes like otoro and uni in dashi, and the chefs' knack for juggling several preparations without dropping quality. The general read is that it sits between the very priciest rooms and cheaper omakase, with the cooking and overall feel living up to the price.
