01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
With an understated exterior reminiscent of a cosy bar, Sansan in Nishiogiminami serves carefully composed dishes blending Japanese and Western techniques. Thoughtful hospitality shines through in details like the seasonal branch accents on the otoshi appetisers and the curated small plates, creating a relaxed setting where quiet conversations unfold naturally.
Fresh Sashimi and Thoughtfully Crafted Plates
The chalkboard displays the day's fresh fish arrivals, and ordering an assorted sashimi platter is a fine way to gauge what is in season. The menu stands out for its imaginative twists, featuring plates like crisp, fragrant almond-crusted fried avocado, tender seared duck with grilled aubergine, and beef tongue baked slowly inside a salt crust to seal in moisture.
Seasonal Sangria to Sweet Finales
The drinks list covers beer and wine alongside original cocktails and house-made sangria infused with seasonal fruits, making it easy to tailor pours to each dish. Guests can round out the meal with conchiglie in mentaiko cream or a bowl of ochazuke, followed by sweet touches like cream zenzai with pumpkin shiratama dumplings. Open until 24:00 late at night, the restaurant welcomes dinner reservations for an unhurried evening out.
