Lonely Planet review

If you haven't had the privilege of eating dinner inside a Japanese home, a meal at Kado is a close approximation. Housed in a Shōwa-era house built in 1950, Kado reveals a rare glimpse of what life was like in Tokyo prior to the economic miracle that transformed the capital in the second half of the 20th century. Dishes, which emphasise traditional Japanese recipes and seasonal produce, are enhanced by the incredible service and familial ambience.

There is no English menu, though the staff will try to accommodate you to the best of their ability.
