Ristorante da Nino is a sublime corner of Sicily in Tokyo. Antonino (Nino) is very meticulous in choosing only the best and freshest ingredients, and he is a master in preparing fine Italian food dishes. I’ve been there hundreds of times and each time I...felt like I was in Italy. Furthermore he has a very rich wine selection. Top!More
Beautiful, cozy, recherché still homey, warm restaurant. Even thou I live in Italy, this might be so far the most exquisite Sicilian restaurant I ever visited. A small Sicilian PEARL in TOKYO. Nino is definitely very talented chef and deserves all the STARS.
This restaurant might have been REALLY good, but when profit is taking over your passion you have this kind of restaurant. You sit at a table no problem you’ll pay an extra ¥1000....
Very good one of the best italian in Tokyo, Nice fish foods ...good wines selection nice sweets ...Sicilian taste but very delicate. Very good bread ...everythink made by the chef.....I don't know when he sleep for make everything....very good
Ristorante da Nino is an authentic Italian restaurant at Tokyo. Nino is an experienced chef who worked long time in Italy and internationally. His cuisine is an authentic regional cuisine from Sicily (southern island of Italy) which summarize the high food tradition of the mediterranean...sea. Everything is cooked fresh at the moment you are sitting at the table. I recommend antipasti with "arancine di riso" fresh "mozzarella di bufala", primi piatti as "linguine al pesto di pistacchio di Bronte with shrimps", maccheroni alla Norma", "linguine al pesto trapanese". As secondi "swordfish alla palermitana" any fish available grilled or baked with potatoes and olives". To end with Cannoli alla siciliana and pistacchio ice-cream. Excellent wine choice from Sicily as well as superb espresso coffee. The kitchen is open and visible from the dining room, giving you the unique opportunity to see how a good chef works and how is busy a restaurant kitchen.More
Great and cozy Sicilian food, excellent seafood, great and friendly staff...Highly recommended. Located near Nogizaka station, pretty classy small place, felt very intimate and nice, looking forward to return.
After sampled few of the top rated Japanese Cuisine, a friend suggested a Sicilian Italian Restaurant, and this was indeed a real treat, we started with a glass of chilled pink prosecco to kick off the meal, and it was simply lovely, starter we had...ordered the antipasto, and hokkaido tomato with home made mozzarella cheese, the tomato is fresh with such a exquisite aroma, when it coupled with extra virgin olive oil, the combination is exquisite and elegant, then, we had the lovely seafood pasta, I have opted for salmon with creamy tomato sauce, and my friend, groupa with pesto pasta, we both had soup, the soup I ordered think it was carrot based soup, but legantly cooked to give the interesting texture, light but very balanced, the best part is the ending dessert, a lovely and very fine prepared cannoli, the skin was so crispy, creamy, rich and crunchy, so far, I rated as one of the best cannoli I have tasted, mind you, I have been all over Italy and frequented many eateries... So Salute Chef Nino, you have certainly raised the bar of of Italian restaurant in Tokyo. Definitely revisit, next time in Tokyo. Easiest way to go to this restaurant is taking the Metro and get off at Nogizaka station.More
this Sicilian restaurant serves no doubt the best italian high end food in Tokyo . make sure you book before because its not very big and super popular . great both for lunch or dinner
We found this place via TripAdvisor whilst walking the streets of Roppongi. It was Halloween and the streets were crazy. So glad we did. The food to sum it up in one word, Stunning! We had the Taormina set menu and substituted the antipasti for...the recommended Haikido scallops. The squid ink risotto was to die for and the pasta with pistachio pesto was something special. The staff were friendly and efficient and all spoke italian which gave me a chance to practice mine. Nino himself was gracious and humble and proudly showed us his new venture Nino's Cafe a more casual eatery around the corner serving beautiful pastries and panini. Everything is made in house. This place is s MUST if you are in Tokyo.More
Great Sicilian cuisine. Smiling Italian chef. Colorful decoration. Friendly service. In the middle of Tokyo.
This is one of the rare places that you get a real culinary experience, which includes a top chef Nino, with the prix fix menu it walks you through light to heavy and savory to sweet at just the right pace and portion.Expect each plate...to be a creation in and of itself (fresh and cooked to perfection) The fantastic taste each dish only builds on the excitement you have for the next dish. We had a mixed dinner group, USA, Japan, Switzerland and France everyone was unanimous in our praise for Ristorante da Nino My recommendation would be to go with the higher priced prix fix menu and sit back and let the evening unfold. Yes, it's on the expensive side but you pay for what you get. The wine selection, wait staff are all what you would expect. The restaurant decor will make you feel that you are in a small quaint Italian restaurant, welcoming rather then over the top. Make reservations as it's not a large space.More
So to start with, I would like to set the background: I am french italian, live in London, eat out 3 to 4 times a week on average, travel the world regularly... And Nino was the most sensorial, rafinated, exquisit italian meal I ever had....The chef clearly takes his inspiration from his sicilian roots and also very subtely incorporates japanese elements. Clearly I did not expect that in Tokyo and was blown away! This place beats any high end italian restaurants I have been to in Italy, London or New York.More
Just a beautiful atmosphere run by incredibly polite, courteous and friendly staff and Nino cooking away in front of us the whole evening... typical 3 hour + meal in italy, but surprising the extensive italian wine selection (and some high end french). Though I'm sure...the a la carte approach would be fine for many, I was overwhelmed with choice, so settled with my wife on one of their set-o menus --there's like 6 choices of sets-- we chose one of the higher end ones, but no disappointment whatsoever. Hard to describe a $300 meal (all in) as value, but I'd be close to saying such here as every course was served perfect time, fresh, just cooked/prepared and in the proper size IMHO for a multi-course menu. Maybe 10 tables of varying sizes plus or minus and appeared to have a room in the back for a small but private party. I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant and will have to be a come-back... PERFECTO AND DELICIOSO!!!!!!!!!More
There are so many fake Italian restaurant in Tokyo, but this one is solid. Da Nino has been ran by Nino himself and the guy is always focused on his cook and I have never been betrayed with his art. You can go with the...set course or you can ask him how you feel like to eat which is very rare way to go with those menu in Tokyo. Normally, you have to follow their rules. So far, to me, Da Nino is the top Italian restaurant in Tokyo or Japan.More
