Stunning. No menu. Bartender gives you a unique drink with a story (Yuzu from his neighbors trees , vintage & rare Italian bitters , etc). Start with a simple gin and tonic (it's like an airy cloud)
This place specializes in classic cocktails . There isn't a menu so you just explain what you like. The owner and his assistant speak a bit of English which is nice. This bar is amazing.
Crazy, Awesome and wonderful experience that you will never ever regret going here. Throw away all the drinks you might know. Let the master decide and mix your drink for the night, cheers
The drinks are incredible and intricate and the performance of the preparation is great, but with everything prepared by the single lead bartender you might be waiting a long time between drinks.
Eater: candle-lit 9-floor hideaway is one of Tokyo’s most compelling bars ; Sink into one of the armchairs at the ancient-wood counter and give mixologist carte blanche to work magic. Get there early
Possibly the best cocktail bar I've ever been to. It is on the 9th floor. There's no menu, speak with them about the flavours or spirits you like and they will make you the most delicious cocktail .
Cozy spot , without a menu, which makes for a fun experience when ordering drinks. The cocktails were delicious. The place is not cheap , but they accept credit cards.
Great, unique drinks in a cozy setting - 2 in our party said they liked similar drinks, yet got completely different, delicious creations. Would've stayed longer if guy next to us wasn't chain smoking
Reservations available for small groups only, but if you get in it is fantastic. Have the seasonal fruit cocktail . And the Japanese whisky with coffee water cocktail (ignore how gross it sounds).
Great speakeasy with original cocktails featuring distinctive and rare spirits . Had a drink made with a liquor from 1930! Say hi to master mixologist Hiroyasu Kayama ???????? ????
Hands down the best cocktail bar I've ever been to. No menu, every drinks tailored to your likings and mixed out of a variety of unusual ingredients. Not to miss!!!
No menu here, just have a chat with your thoughtful and creative bartender and: trust that it will blow you away
Clad in a white jacket , Kayama can often be found grinding roots, herbs and spices grown on his family's own plot of land. The bar is well-known for making its own version of Campari .
Ask for something simple to launch the evening. A G&T perhaps. Kayama readies his tools: the highball glass, the botanicals, the 20-litre tank of pressurised gas. he likes to make drinks from scratch.
Great atmosphere. Staff was helpful but getting a good whiskey was like pulling teeth
Mixology temple . Phenomenal collection of old liquor and a decent selection of hard to find Japanese whisky . Pure theatre for every drink.
It's small and cosy and only allows groups of 4 max. Every cocktail is a little show in itself. Grab a seat by the bar to watch!
Bespoke cocktails in a cozy space (if you've been to Angel's Share in NYC, think a cross between that and a hobbit house)
Amazing bartender , great cocktails . Although they smoke inside
Hiro is the most amazing bartender ever, making his own insanely good version of any cocktail .
Went before and had a great time. Tried to comeback a year later fairly early in the evening but was promptly turned away and was told we couldn't wait. ????
Fantastic cocktails and ambiance. True speakeasy vibes.
Got there for an early drink at 5:00 and it was closed but they have an epic sister bar on level 2. White negroni was ????????.
On the 9th floor of an office building - signs are subtle
Let the bar decide your drink. This place is outstanding.
Try their take on a Pisco Sour . Just let them guide you. It's a magical place.
Delicate taste drinks just the way you want it.
The barman is quite serious. He's not a chatter at all. However, the drinks were really good.
Atmosphere, quality of the drinks, cool staff and unique glassware
do not miss it . it is a must in Tokyo
Cocktails are great but they only allow groups of up to 4 people...no room to negotiate, even if you sit separately
Let the bartender do his thing, don't be too specific. Absolutely incredible.
The green Bloody Mary cannot be missed
If you're going to go to just one cocktail bar in Tokyo they say this is the one.
The best bar in Shinjuku!
Downright fantastic. Interesting old amaro selection.
Cool drinks but be prepared to spend an arm and a leg
Fresh Campari .
The best drinks with the best experience!
No menu and limited English which resulted in wrong drinks. B&F below was very nice
Overhyped, awful and unkind service, even more awful elevator

Fantastic cocktails and a really nice staff. They speak English quite well, but appreciate Japanese. Try a Negroni or a Vieux Carré. - Brook Shelley
Fabulous speakeasy style bar with excellent cocktails, a nice hybrid of Trench and Tram and their cocktail menu gives good guidance on what might be your best option - Dan Castellano
Chill NYC like bar with some very attentive staff and great cocktails. Get the mezcal or whiskey ones and sit at the bar. - Ronak Daya
