About
Located along the Meguro River, “unito” is an Italian restaurant led by Chef Kensuke Okano. Born in Venezuela, he built his foundation in Japan before moving to Italy, where he spent four and a half years refining his craft at a Michelin‑starred restaurant in Turin.
Rooted in regional Italian cuisine, his course menu—updated roughly every two months—blends the knowledge and techniques he gained in Italy with Japan’s seasonal ingredients and the essence of his South American heritage. Dishes featuring South American flavors and aromas, such as meat smoked in banana leaves or agnolotti wrapped in ultra‑thin dough, showcase his distinctive sensibility.
The restaurant offers a chic space with large windows overlooking the Meguro River. Enjoy a dining experience unique to “unito,” accompanied by wines that complement the cuisine, including wines from Japan’s Hirakawa Winery as well as Italian wines, while taking in the ever-changing seasonal scenery—from cherry blossoms and fresh greenery to autumn foliage and winter’s bare trees.
