Ristorante La Barrique Tokyo received this prestigious name from its original “Ristorante La Barrique” in Torino Italy,
a long standing Michelin star rated Italian restaurant.
The restaurant opened in 2007 after renovating a 70-year-old Japanese house that was the owner’s family home.
In our unique Japanese-Western fusion relaxed atmosphere, you can enjoy refined cuisine
that emphasizes seasonal Japanese ingredients and carefully selected Italian wines,
all with the service of a team of sommeliers with extensive local experience.
<Introduction of The original Ristorante La Barrique Torino>
The original Ristorante La Barrique Torino built its reputation in Piedmont,
the region of fine foods and famous among the Italian gourmet celebrities for its high standard.
The owner chef, Stefano was born in a family of famous chefs and he too became not only an excellent chef
but also a professional sommelier certified by the Italian Sommelier Association.
“La Barrique” in French, means a small wooden barrel used for the fermentation and maturation of wine.
Stefano used this name hoping that his restaurant will someday mature and enrich as time goes by,
just as the grapes ripe into fine wine that mellows into a rich, deep and elegant taste
during its fermentation in its small wooden barrel, “La Barrique”.
The elegance and taste of Stefano’s cuisine was of course first class,
but Stefano always cared to have one of the best service staffs around him
and became one of the few restaurants with an excellent personal service
that can meet or exceed expectations for all guests individually.
And now, Stefano passed his will to Shin and delivered the same elegance
in its cuisine and the best personal service in Tokyo.
