Tucked into Tokyo, Den is one of those places that quietly earns its reputation — the kind of restaurant you walk past once, then think about all week. Modern kaiseki that doesn't take itself too seriously, and the locals quietly resent that we wrote about it.
Best at the edges of the day — late on a weeknight, with no rush — and worth the detour even if you're staying on the other side of town. Bring a friend, leave the phone in your bag.
