About Le Club des Vins HermitageLe Club des Vins Hermitage について
In French, the word hermitage can mean “a hideaway.” In the fall of 2024, the Hermitage quietly opened its doors below Restaurant Hiramatsu Hiroo in Hiroo, Tokyo.
The restaurant is characterized by a timeless beauty and authenticity that will never fade. Every detail is born out of a profoundly vibrant sensibility and an intellect that rejoices in the dynamic freedom of the individual.
Chef Kazuki Inoue wields traditional techniques, fresh ingredients, and delicate tableware to craft an à la carte menu that is never the same from one night to the next. Tasting wines are served table-side by general manager Masami Kono, whose spirited service enlivens an expansive wine list featuring more than 3,000 labels. Together, the two conduct a complex symphony of French cuisine.
Whether you are looking to feast in splendor or enjoy a single drink or dish before heading out into the night, the doors of this little sanctuary will warmly welcome you.
