This was epic. Such a great way to try some key delicacies of Japan. The shamisen performance goes down as one of the best things I saw during my time in Tokyo. Staff were so kind and willing to speak with us (through an interpreter!)....10/10 recommend.More

The restaurant is quite small with a total seating capacity of 11 persons; however, this should in no way be taken as a complaint, as the quality of the experience and of the food, is simply unique and memorable. From the moment that the guide...and the plated food is presented, a foreshadowing of sorts comes into play. This is quote smart and creative, and I highly commend the thought process that has gone into the ensuring of a satisfying customer experience. Now talking about the beef alone, each way you cook it, whether just for a light searing, or if you prefer to have a golden brown colour, the tastes changes as well. This, together with the sauces provided gives any person an array of choices to find their favourite combination.More

We had an excellent experience, the people are very friendly and the meal was very nice. The building might benefit from an english sign to make it easier for tourists to find.

The food was amazing, the guys played shamisen for us and they were very friendly. Choose the double bento box.

Perfect place to try traditional Japanese food! Quality, service & people : AMAZING. It is a MUST do.

Saw reviews on TripAdvisor and made a reservation two weeks before arriving in Tokyo. After three weeks traveling in Japan, it remained the best dining experience...a must!

We went for the 2 layer lunch box and enjoyed a very serene and relaxing lunch in a lovely traditional Japanese house located amongst the busy Sensoji temple area of Tokyo. Hi he food was really delicately put together and the service was impeccable. We...enjoyed the Traditional Japanese music played by two very able young musicians.More

We had an amazing experience at kikko! We arrived for lunch, the lunch set is a good option for saving money while still experiencing the place. The place itself is beautiful. The food was one of the best meals I've ever had! And there was...a shamisen live performance. The staff were incredibly sweet. We had a bit of a misunderstanding about the price of the lunch set- we initially ordered the double lunch set as we are a couple and thought the price was meant for 2 persons. Turns out that the double means the bigger size of the set, and the price of it was for each person. We still had an amazing experience and definitely recommendMore

This was a dream come true for our last day in Japan! Traditional edo-period house, live performance of shamisen style music by the owner in the end of our meal, incredible 8-course Japanese meal and overwhelmingly authentic atmosphere. Wonderful hospitality and service! Highly recommend to...anyone.More

This was everything my wife and I wanted we were very pleased. From the traditional atmosphere, Great music performance by the owner and family to a lovely 8 course Japanese meal. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting something outside the hustle and bustle of Japanese...eateries. Booking essential. Arrive before 6.30pmMore

I've been traveling to Japan regularly for the last 3 years. I've spent about 5 months in country. I say this only to give perspective. This is the best dining experience I've have in Japan. We were met at the door by the owner who...led us to our table. We had specified the least expensive course for dinner. The waiter took our drink order and gave us the course menu for our meal. Each course was prepared to perfection in both appearance and favor. A culinary delight. The meal by itself is reason enough to go to Kikko, but that is only part of the experience. The owner is a renowned Shamisen musician and he performs a short set while you eat. Though I must admit, I was unable to continue eating while he played. I am a new fan of the Shamisen and I could not focus on anything other than the music. Once complete, we finished our meal. It was about 2 hours for the meal. The atmosphere is one of tranquility; relaxing from beginning to end. To cap off a perfect evening, the owner offered photos with us and walked us to the street as we left. I cannot say enough. I will return.More

It was a wonderful experience at Kikko, tried the lunch 2 layers bento set and it was fantastics. Location was very near senso-ji temple. They also surprised us by adding in our national anthem into their performance, definitely an experience worth trying to feel Japanese...hospitality and culture.More
