At Kani Kato Asakusa, you can try some of the finest crabs in Japan, sourced from Hokkaido, Niigata, and other top regions, including crabs of the same quality served to the Emperor. The restaurant has its roots in Hokkaido, founded by the "King of Crab," Toshiaki Kato, and brings decades of expertise to Tokyo.

The kitchen is led by Jun Okada, a chef with over 18 years of experience who has earned acclaim for his mastery of Japanese cuisine. Every dish highlights the natural flavors of the crabs, complemented by carefully selected seasonal ingredients, including rare Edo Tokyo vegetables grown using traditional methods.

Message from Chef Jun Okada:
"I hope you’ll enjoy a special moment with us, experiencing the finest crab dishes and the rich culture of Japanese cuisine. From across the counter, I want to bring a smile to your face with heartfelt hospitality."

The crabs are shipped live to the restaurant, ensuring ultimate freshness before they are prepared. The menu, which features options such as crab shabu-shabu and seasonal course meals, reflects the highest standards of quality. While the prices are premium, the exceptional ingredients and meticulous preparation make every bite worthwhile.

The restaurant’s serene atmosphere, with traditional Echizen washi decorations, provides the perfect setting for a special occasion. Whether you’re planning a romantic date, celebrating a birthday, or sharing a meal with family, Kani Kato Asakusa offers a memorable experience in every detail.
