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.
If you want Moshi Moshi to book it for you
Tell us the date, time, and party size — any dietary notes or a seat preference if you have one. Our AI voice agent calls Nakiryu in polite Japanese (keigo), handles the back-and-forth, and emails you the confirmation in English. No charge unless the reservation is made. If the date is full, we'll tell you the closest open alternatives and hold nothing until you say yes.
