Kuriya Dining

Service at Kuriya Dining is exceptional, with staff acting as concierges for Japanese fine dining. Servers expertly explain the omakase dishes and the stories behind them—from the frying of momiji leaves to grains cooked to resemble tiny popcorn. They also detail how the umeshu is crafted and the optimal way to enjoy each course. This level of attentiveness makes the experience unforgettable. The ambience is moody yet relaxed, and the dining room is filled with returning patrons—clear proof of the restaurant’s consistency. The seasonal set menus change regularly to reflect the finest produce. The autumn menu leans heavily into uni, ikura and mushrooms, delivering both depth and precision. The wagyu beef hoba yaki is also skilfully grilled on a magnolia leaf to showcase the quality of the meat, with a gentle smokiness enhancing its natural richness. Presentation is breathtaking, prompting a pause to admire each dish before the first bite.
