Restaurant at Tensei

About this space

Tensei is a contemporary Japanese dining venue centred on disciplined counter service and an emphasis on curated drinks and craft-led hospitality.

Design: The interior is clean-lined and compact, dominated by a long polished timber chef's counter, dark marble back panels and recessed wooden shelving. The space uses neutral leather stools, warm recessed lighting and timber floors for a restrained, orderly appearance.

Features: A continuous chef's counter provides an open preparation and service run suitable for tasting-menu formats. The venue includes a commercial extraction hood and built-in staging for plateware, plus Wi‑Fi, air conditioning, a PA system and speakers; hosts may play their own music or bring a DJ.

Ideal for: Small groups seeking an intimate, seated tasting or a focused, drink-led evening where close conversation and chef interaction are central.

What sets it apart: Three distinct counters sit under one roof: an Xijiu-exclusive cocktail counter, a tempura and teppanyaki dining level, and a Tatenokawa-exclusive sake counter.

What guests say: The venue presents a welcoming counter environment and attentive, accommodating service, and the staff demonstrate clear teamwork and willingness to adapt dishes to guests' preferences.
