Bulgari Ginza Bar

Resting on the tenth floor of Bulgari’s Ginza Tower, Bulgari Ginza Bar is a lavish sanctuary of affluence and excess. At its core, the bar is quite conventional; small bites, hot cocktails, and wines by the glass. This may seem unexpected for Bulgari, a brand known for its ornate design. Here, the focus is on a refined take on the classic bar experience in a sleek setting.

The cocktails blend Japanese spirits with Italian amaros. Champagne is a highlight, with selections including Ruinart and Dom Pérignon.

Guests can also enjoy drinks at La Terrazza Dom Pérignon Lounge, the bar’s open-air rooftop space featuring a range of vintage Champagnes.Truly one of the hottest eats Ginza has to offer.

Gucci Osteria Tokyo

To step into Gucci Osteria is to arrive at the Emerald City. Verdant green walls, glass panels and patterned tiling define the restaurant’s interior, reinforcing its connection to the House of Gucci. Both the bar menu and tasting courses, having garnered a Michelin star, are entertaining and intentional. Whimsical dish names like “Charley Walks on Monte Fuji” and “What Does a Wagyu Dream?” reflect the restaurant’s playful, imaginative style. The signature dish and star of the meal, however, is “A Parmigiana that wants to be a Ramen.” A dish of fresh pasta and eggplant in consommé reflects the osteria’s eccentric, playful approach to Italian cuisine.

Le Cafe V

Perched atop Louis Vuitton’s seven-story, mother-of-pearl mirror house in Ginza, Le Cafe V elevates brunch aesthetic in a neighborhood already renowned for its vogue sensibilities. Fluttering ceiling ornaments, blue half-moon couches, micro-scale bar seating; Le Cafe V looks and feels like a modish speakeasy. This haute intention carries over to the food and drink on offer, as well. The vanilla-bourbon mille-feuille and raspberry-citrus macaron are expertly crafted and carry handsome flavor profiles. The cappuccinos feature latte art depicting the brand’s iconic blossom design. One standout feature is the display of chocolates in the café. Produced by Sugalabo, these chocolates reflect the design and branding of the Louis Vuitton building.
