We’ve been meaning to check out this restaurant at Icon Village because we work just around the corner, so one weekday lunch we made a concerted effort to go. We were greeted with a clean, soothing, wood‑oriented interior and politely smiling wait staff clad in customary kimonos. Our waitress made some recommendations, displaying good knowledge. We took her advice, and to our surprise, a complimentary starter materialized in front of us a few minutes later, with our waitress explaining there would be a long wait for our order. We were pleased with this gesture—plus, the starter of yellowtail fish cheek and radish was melt‑in‑the‑mouth delicious. The a la carte mains did not disappoint either—the grilled mackerel and grilled grunt (both subject to availability), served with pickled vegetables, rice and miso soup were tasty (but rather bony). Desserts turned out pretty well too: The macha cheesecake and goma ice‑cream were quite good, but we would have preferred the cheesecake without the bread‑like layer that it came with. Tokkuri delivers on quality and is a great place for a satisfying lunch during a hectic weekday.
