We recommend Tokyo Bird for an authentic Japanese experience. Good wine, excellent cocktails, a large range of Japanese whiskies, or Japanese draught beer from the tap. We choose a variety of finger food to share, always fresh & delicious. Yoshi is an outstanding host. Ian, Megan & Ben.

Great vibes, authentic taste, and friendly and helpful waiter. Every aspect is satisfying. I decided to go eating out to this restaurant by viewing the second place restaurant in world stake house ranking, but the waiter suggested us to order fish meal. At the end of the day, the grilled fish we order was awesome, which makes us amazed. Of course, the stake was no doubt, the desserts was exquisite, this order was also waiters recommendation. One Japanese waiter is very helpful and gentle. I want to visit on next special day.
