[Hidden Gem Italian Restaurant 📍 Harajuku] ☑︎ Delicious drinks and food ☑︎ Within a 5-minute walk from Takeshita Street ☑︎ Perfect for a girls' night out ✎*┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ [Dishes Ordered] ▷ Homemade Salt Lemon Sour ▷ Recommended Appetizers ▷ Recommended Carpaccio Etc. [Food Experience Report] While walking down a backstreet, I was drawn in by the cute exterior and extensive menu. The restaurant has a counter with about 4 seats, and one staff member was managing everything. The menu was divided into recommended and standard dishes, and while I was wondering what to order, I was able to order a single dish with half of each. Also, they noticed my requests before I even mentioned them and were happy to accommodate, and I was satisfied with their kind and attentive service☺️ The drinks were also delicious, and above all, the anchovy potatoes were exquisite. I forgot to take a picture because the aroma was so tempting, and I realized the plate was empty. Finally, I was surprised at how inexpensive it was. I would like to visit again. Thank you for the meal.

I've returned about five times because the food is delicious and reasonably priced. The presentation is lovely, and the menu is extensive, with options like meat and cheese. The sangria is also delicious. It's perfect for a girls' night out. There's a private room in the back, which can accommodate about eight people. It's a bit intimidating to enter since you can't see inside, but the chef is kind and approachable, so my worries were unfounded. Since one person runs the place, it's best to go early.

An Evening of Authentic European Cuisine and Wine at a Bistro in Ura-Harajuku I had a wonderful time at "Koh," a small bistro in Ura-Harajuku. I'd like to share my experience of the cozy atmosphere and exquisite dishes. ◎ Highlights ● Quality and Creativity of the Cuisine "Koh's" menu ranges from seasonal dishes to classic European fare, all of which are of high quality. The unique and creative dishes were particularly impressive, such as the crab miso butter broccoli and the cold confit oysters. The freshness of the ingredients and the chef's skill are perfectly combined, and each bite surprises you with its depth of flavor. ● Homey Atmosphere and Attentive Service The interior has warm lighting and simple decor, creating a comfortable atmosphere, like visiting a friend's home. The owner himself handles both the cooking and the service, and his attentive care relaxes the visitors. ● Wine Pairing Not only the food, but the wine selection is also excellent. The wines chosen to complement the dishes further enhance the appeal of the meal. They are particularly known for their selection of organic wines, allowing you to enjoy the pairings with the food. ☆ Summary "Koh" was a bistro that provided a special time with its high-quality cuisine and warm atmosphere. While being a hidden gem in Ura-Harajuku, the quality of its cuisine was comparable to that of top-class restaurants in the city center.

I was looking for a place to enjoy a nice drink at night and happened to pass by. The food was delicious and plentiful, and the wine was excellent – a perfect choice. I appreciate the price point in this area. The appetizer trio, where you can choose three items, was beautifully presented with a generous portion for two people. The soy milk blancmange with sweet chestnuts and walnuts, in particular, was amazing, with the fresh sea urchin on top adding a great flavor that paired well with the white wine. It was a taste I haven't found anywhere else. The owner is working alone, preparing and serving, so it seems like a good place to go when you want to relax and enjoy the experience at a leisurely pace.

I went there for a company social gathering. The space was long, and the back had private rooms. It felt like a renovated karaoke room. Unfortunately, there was a smell of cigarette smoke. The food was voluminous, and the presentation was stylish. A man seemed to be running the place by himself, I think. He was very attentive. The women in my workplace said they enjoyed the food and wanted to come back again!
