Chef Sato Welcomes You to Hakkoku
View this post on Instagram
Hakkoku is without a doubt one of the hottest Japanese restaurant in Tokyo, having been opened in February 2018 by the much-lauded celebrity chef Hiroyuki Sato.
With fame comes demand however, tables are booked up months in advance. Chef Sato has already been awarded numerous international prizes, including a Michelin star for his previous restaurant Tokami.
Situated in the heart of the Ginza district, Hakkoku can be found on the third floor of an imposing building. Inside, the design is seductive, with an ultra-minimalist aesthetic, emblematic of Japanese design culture.
Loyal to his specialities, chef Sato is offering a menu with a plethora of sushi, maki and sashimi, all of the highest quality. If that wasn’t enough already, it’s worth noting that Hiroyuki Sato is also the warmest of hosts in this new, intimate location.
