How reservations actually work
The restaurant does not publish a direct booking channel. A hotel concierge or a private introduction is usually the only path.
Peak seasons (cherry blossom in early April, autumn leaves in mid-November) fill three to six months out; weekday lunches are usually the easiest slot for a first-time visitor.
