CONCEPT

hortensia

The name of the restaurant “Hortensia” is derived from a beautiful and unique flower that bears round-headed flower clusters on top, much like a flower bouquet.

In the same way many tiny flowers group together to form a hortensia, the love and passion from our chef, the staff members and all those involved come together to form our restaurant. And, like the flower, we desire to grow by giving our love and passion to our customers. These messages are symbolized by our restaurant's name: “Hortensia.”

Our team is committed to offering our customers the most precious of dining experiences. Not just being a place of superficial relationships between the guests and staff, we aspire to be a space where bonds of friendship are formed, becoming a place that is like a home for all.

CUISINE

Our dishes are created by filtering seasonal ingredients through executive Chef Koga's inspiration. Using techniques polished through years of experience from working with top restaurants, Chef Koga uses both innovatively modern and classically French approaches to cuisine, which he combines to create a unique blend of flavors.

AMBIENCE

Because the restaurant is located in a quiet, exclusive lower floor, the 3 meter high-ceilings give an impression of more space than you might imagine. The interior is decorated with stone walls and dark brown natural wood generously used to exude a chic and stylish atmosphere.

KIDS DAY

There is a “Kids' Day” that takes place once a month where you can have a fine dining experience with your kids without worrying about others who are doing the same!
