Minori Japanese Restaurant

WHY GO

Minori (meaning "harvest" in Japanese) serves up a serene setting with earth and neutral tones, along with a solid stone sushi bar and an impressively extensive menu.

TATLER TIPS

The thick menu will require some time to plough through. For easy decision making, we recommend the chef’s specials, the omakase or—of course—our highlights below.

• There is no faulting the toothsome oysters for kaki gratan, aka baked oysters with cream and cheese. The shellfish is so delectably rich that devouring more than one borders on gluttony.

• Check out Minori’s yoganyaki dishes, where fresh meat, sefood et al are cooked on a slab of hot volcanic stone. Our pick is the Wagyu beef—the marbling of the meat prevents it from drying out, ensuring a moist delicious bite.
