About Ranma

Teppanyaki counter in Higashi-Azabu where aged A5 wagyu is griddle-seared with hotel-trained precision. Three-time Tabelog 100 selection offers classic teppanyaki format—lobster, abalone, grilled vegetables—at ¥10,000–14,999 dinner, with Wednesday–Friday lunch at ¥1,000–1,999. Counter seats deliver the clearest view of the chef's searing technique.

Tokyo's premium dining scene has grown deeper, and Ranma in Tokyo is best approached through the verified basics rather than unconfirmed details. It earned a place in Tabelog's Steak / Teppanyaki EAST 100 for 2025, signaling recognition within that category. The appeal is straightforward: a Tokyo restaurant with a verified smart-casual dress code, published price bands, and lunch and dinner hours on most operating days.

The recognized steak / teppanyaki category

Ranma is best understood through its 2025 Tabelog Steak / Teppanyaki EAST 100 recognition, which places it within a closely watched premium dining category. Rather than leaning on unverified claims about seating, chefs, menus, or signature dishes, the grounded information is practical: Ranma is in Tokyo, carries that 2025 recognition, and lists a smart-casual dress code.

Seating, ordering details, and the current meal format should be confirmed directly with the restaurant, especially if you have preferences for how you want the visit to unfold. Ranma's listed price bands are JPY 10,000–14,999 and JPY 1,000–1,999. Published hours are Monday 6–9 PM; Tuesday closed; and Wednesday through Sunday 11:30 AM–2 PM and 6–9 PM. Booking details should also be confirmed directly with the restaurant.

How it sits in the teppanyaki field

Ranma sits in Tokyo's broader premium dining field. Kanshin and Crony offer useful points of comparison for diners mapping Tokyo's higher-end restaurants, though Ranma's draw is its own place within the Steak / Teppanyaki category. Ranma's Tabelog recognition reflects standing in the Steak / Teppanyaki EAST 100 for 2025. For other Tokyo options, Sushi Sugaya and UNE PINCÉE are also worth considering within Tokyo's dining landscape.

Approach Ranma with the verified basics in mind: Tokyo location, smart-casual dress, published lunch and dinner windows on most open days, and the listed price bands. Details such as drinks, specific dishes, seating layout, and menu structure should be checked directly before you go.

Ranma sits in Tokyo's mid-tier teppanyaki bracket, below hotel-backed heavyweights in polish but above neighborhood yakiniku in technique. At ¥10,000–14,999 for dinner, it costs less than Crony's ¥¥¥¥ French-inflected innovation but runs parallel to Kanshin's kaiseki-influenced Japanese courses. The Tabelog 100 recognition signals consistent execution, three appearances (2021, 2024, 2025) reflect ingredient sourcing and griddle precision rather than menu disruption. Booking is easier here than at the city's top-tier teppanyaki counters; no multi-week lead time is required, and midweek availability remains open due to the Tuesday closure and Monday dinner-only schedule.

Choose Ranma when you want chef-driven wagyu searing without the formality of hotel dining rooms. The 13-seat counter offers direct griddle views, while the eight-table section suits groups prioritizing conversation. If you prefer omakase sushi with similar counter intimacy, Sushi Sugaya operates in the same Minato area with a tighter focus on raw fish. For a lower price point and French bistro flavors, UNE PINCÉE delivers at ¥¥ without the griddle format. Ranma's strength lies in translating hotel teppanyaki training into an independent setting, expect competent execution, straightforward sake pairings, and ingredient quality that justifies the Tabelog nod, but skip it if you need private rooms or multilingual concierge depth.
