Rientei is a cozy little bistro popular with the locals for its delicious French food, reasonable prices, and warm atmosphere. Patrons can enjoy a unique blend of West and East, as the restaurant is operated out of an old Japanese home. The three-dish set is a must—for just 1,200 yen, patrons can enjoy a sampling of the chef’s artful creations. Offerings vary by season, but might include French favorites like foie gras, or homey Japanese classics like menchi-katsu (deep-fried ground meat patty). The restaurant also offers a selection of sake, shochu, and wine to pair with their dishes.
