📜 Restaurant Details
Founded in 1885 from a small roadside stall in Ginza 3-chome, this long-established tempura restaurant has become a popular dining spot, often attracting long queues despite being in an area renowned for its many famous tempura shops.
In 2020, "Ginza Tengoku" relocated to its current address. The restaurant is located on the first floor and offers traditional Edomae tempura rice bowls, tempura sets, and more. Additionally, other dining options from the same group are located in the same building: on the second floor is "Ginza Tengoku Shiori," where tempura is freshly prepared in front of customers at a counter, and on the third floor is "Washoku Yuzuki," which creates various Japanese dishes using seasonal ingredients, allowing guests to choose based on their purpose or occasion.
The tempura here is characterized by a thick, crisp exterior and a soft interior, made from a special egg batter fried in sesame oil, typical of Edomae tempura. The tempura batter locks in the deliciousness of carefully selected ingredients, which is then drizzled with a specially crafted sauce to create a tempura rice bowl that has a rich yet refreshing flavor, making it a dish that has captured the hearts of many fans. Additionally, the "Assorted Tempura" showcases solid ingredients combined with the artisans' skill, resulting in a soft and fluffy texture, making it another proud dish of the restaurant. This traditional flavor, which has been passed down for over 100 years, comes highly recommended.
