About this place
French cuisine enjoyed with a garden view makes a fitting choice for a meal where the setting matters as much as the food. At Hakozaki-gu Geihinkan La Saison, courses run from appetisers through to dessert, with dishes showcasing the range of French cooking: beef cheek, grilled beef fillet, salmon terrine and pasta with seafood in a cream sauce. Wagyu fillet with matsutake mushrooms is another menu option. There is plenty to catch the eye, whether you are drawn to meat dishes or would rather start with seafood and appetisers.
Diners who have enjoyed lunch here have praised the sauce served with the fish, the tenderness of the meat and the satisfying meal from first course through to dessert. One visitor also noted that ingredients and presentation change with the seasons, so dishes with the same name may take on a different character at different times of year. Other comments highlight the beautiful tableware and appetisers arranged to reflect the garden view, bringing the scenery and the details on the plate together.
The menu includes wine and sparkling wine by the glass at lunch, as well as wine by the glass in the evening—an option for adding a drink to your course. Non-alcoholic sparkling wine and red, white and rosé wines are also available, making it easier to choose something to accompany a meal with someone who does not drink alcohol.
Visitors have mentioned celebrating birthdays and family occasions here, and a children’s plate is available. One diner described having the children’s course served first, which let the family enjoy their meal at a relaxed pace. High chairs are available and reservations can be made, so it is worth enquiring in advance for a celebration or a meal with a larger group.
