Best Italian Restaurants in Ikebukuro

This was the first dinner we had on arrival in Tokyo, on a first visit to the city. We selected it given its proximity to our Airbnb and the excellent reviews to be found online. Diritto was superb in every way. As a global "foodie" from Manhattan, I'd rate this a 5-star dining experience. Intimate and civilized small room, the warmest welcome imaginable, a master chef cooking in an open open kitchen, preparing a masterful 4 course Italian dinner seen through his personal lens using the finest local ingredients. An extraordinary meal in every way. Thank you for such an amazing welcome to Japan!

Excellent as always. Looking forward another venue soon.

Great service and great food at a reasonable price!

Great food, very nice staff, great experience

Absolutely perfect from start to finish. From the bread and wine through all 6 courses, the food was inventive, creative and delicious. The service was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Recommendation: sit in the counter area and not at a table to see the kitchen/food prep at work. This place will have a Michelin star at some point: it's that good, so go now when it's accessible and reasonably priced.
