Joel Robuchon Tokyo

The late Joel Robuchon, the most Michelin-starred chef in history with 32 stars across his restaurants worldwide, established his flagship 3-star Tokyo outpost in the gothic villa of Ebisu Garden Place. The restaurant delivers exquisite French haute cuisine — most famously Robuchon's trademark whipped potato with butter — in an opulent setting rivalling the finest rooms in Paris. At $250 for a course, it is cheaper than the average Tokyo three-star tasting menu by $100, and 85% of guests rate the service as world-class.
