七代目 虎

Nanadaime tora, meaning "seventh generation tiger," is a robatayaki izakaya in Omotesando that practices what it calls genshi-yaki, a primal method of skewering fish and vegetables and grilling them over an irori hearth. The spectacle of the open flame and the skill of the grill masters are central to the experience, with the char and smoke imparted by the charcoal giving each dish its distinctive character. The basement dining room, a short walk from Omotesando station, has a warm, convivial atmosphere. At lunch, the kitchen serves accessible Japanese set meals such as seafood chirashi don, beef soboro don and simmered mackerel, while dinner brings the full robatayaki programme of grilled fish, sashimi and seasonal small plates alongside sake and beer. The lunch offerings are well regarded for their value and quality. Reservations are accepted, and the space suits both quick lunches and longer evening gatherings with colleagues or friends. For a taste of old-school Japanese grilling in the heart of Omotesando, Nanadaime tora delivers fire, smoke and skill in equal measure. Its irori flames and carefully sourced seafood make it a memorable stop for anyone seeking authentic robatayaki.
