Ginza Yoshizawa is a counter-only kaiseki restaurant in Chuo City's Ginza district, offering both lunch and dinner omakase service. The kitchen builds its courses around seasonal ingredients, with a flexible approach that changes as produce comes into season.
Two dishes stand out as house specialties: sawara (Spanish mackerel) grilled over straw, and rice cooked in a clay pot. These are mentioned by the restaurant itself as centerpieces worth trying, rather than incidental items on the menu.
Service runs across most of the week. Lunch is offered Thursday through Saturday from 11:30 to 14:30, while dinner seatings run nightly except Sunday, from 18:00 to 21:00. The restaurant is closed on Sundays. Given the counter format, seating is limited, though the exact number of seats is not listed here and should be confirmed directly with the restaurant.
Ginza Yoshizawa sits in the luxury price tier, consistent with its kaiseki format and Ginza location. As is typical for small counter restaurants at this level, advance reservation is expected. Prospective guests can reach the restaurant by phone or through its official website to check availability and current pricing, since neither seat count nor exact course prices are published in the material reviewed for this listing.
