Winter Kappo is now available.

Kappo cuisine, often referred to as “Kappo Ryori,” is a traditional Japanese dining style that emphasizes the chef’s skillful preparation and presentation of a multi-course meal, usually consisting of small, artfully crafted dishes. The term “Kappo” translates to “to cut and to cook,” reflecting the chef’s involvement in both the preparation and cooking processes.

【食欲の秋】
The term “autumn of appetite” was coined from a uniquely Japanese sensibility and custom, referring to the autumn delicacies that arouse one’s appetite. In Japan, there are many seasonal customs and events, of which autumn is especially emphasized as a season for enjoying gastronomy!

Japan has four seasons, and autumn is also called the “harvest season” because it is the time when rice, fruits, and other fruits bear fruit and are ready to be harvested. According to the calendar, the autumn season is from September to November.

Please enjoy our autumn menu.

Kappo Sato received one Michelin star in 2023! Thank you so much for all your support🫶

「今年Michelin取るから」
面接した時に佐藤さんが言ったこの一言に「あ。この人について行こう」って思ったのがちょうど今から一年前。

本当にMichelin一つ星取りました。

特に私は何もしてないけれど、立ち上げメンバー、マネージャー、そしてbeverage directorとして、これからも佐藤さんがお客様に美味しい料理を提供できるよう、全力でサポートして料理に華を添えるような美味しいお酒をサーブしていきます。

皆んな食べに来て。高いけどまじで美味しいから。

The Michelin Guide, known for its discerning standards and commitment to highlighting exceptional dining establishments, has awarded a Michelin Star upon Kappo Sato.

“ We are proud to receive this Michelin Star, a testament to the passion and creativity of our culinary team. We owe this incredible achievement to our dedicated staff, our trusted suppliers and our loyal patrons who have supported us from our restaurant opening in 2022,” said the owner chef, Takeshi Sato, who has been instrumental in shaping Kappo Sato's culinary identity. Chef Takeshi Sato had previously served at a Michelin-starred Japanese restaurant in Tokyo before assuming his position as the official chef of the Japanese Consulate General in Toronto in 2011.

We invite food enthusiasts from near and far to experience the magic of Kappo Sato.

【Soba】
Fall menu is launched
Soba is a type of Japanese noodle made from buckwheat flour. It's a popular and traditional dish in Japanese cuisine. The name "soba" refers to both the noodle itself and dishes that are prepared using these noodles. Soba noodles are thin and long, similar in appearance to spaghetti but with a nuttier flavor due to the buckwheat flour.

Tempura
Kappo Sato's tempura is supreme tempura.

Ingredients fried at the right temperature are so fresh that you can hear the sound of the hot oil popping until the moment you eat it.

Ingredients vary depending on the season. Please come and visit us to see what ingredients you can find!

Kappo Sato's summer menu focuses more on ingredients and each dish is carefully prepared.

We will take you to a different world from the one you are used to.

Once you try the grilled tilefish with matsukasa-yaki, you will never forget it, and each plate decorated by Chef Sato is sure to make your evening a wonderful one.

Smoked dish
Smoked seasonal ingredients will tantalize your taste buds. Chef Sato's carefully smoked ingredients release a flavour beyond their original deliciousness.

Chef Sato carefully selects the seasonality, quality, and cooking process of the ingredients before smoking.

The smoked dishes that change with the season are one of Kappo Sato's specialties.

Now, what will you encounter next?

"Fresh fish" It can be said that Japan's unique Japanese cuisine, including sashimi, has developed around fish. Chef Sato's many handicrafts and innovations are hidden in fish dishes.

"Season" At Kappo Sato, our menu changes with the seasons. We use the season's ingredients in abundance, and the highlight of Kappo Sato's cuisine is that you can feel the change of the season with all five senses.

"Tableware" may seem a little surprising, but it is also one of the most appealing aspects of Kappo Sato. While most Western courses are served on white porcelain or glassware, Kappo Sato offers a variety of dishes made mainly of ceramics, which are unique in color, shape, and texture. Chef Sato chooses dishes that match the color and season of the dish so that the dish is perfectly matched to it.

What is KAPPO.

In a counter-style kappo restaurant, a counter is placed between the chef and the customer, and the chef serves the food directly to the customer without a waiter.

Kappo is a restaurant where the chef is very close to the customers, and the customers can enjoy freshly prepared Japanese cuisine right away and can talk with the chef about seasonal ingredients and cooking methods.
