Hanagoyomi

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

Japanese Cuisine at Its Most Considered

Hanagoyomi is the Japanese restaurant at The Kahala Hotel & Resort Yokohama, situated in the Minatomirai district of Yokohama. Part of a carefully assembled collection of upscale dining experiences within the hotel, it sits alongside a dedicated teppanyaki counter under the same name — each offering a distinct expression of Japanese cuisine within the same refined setting.

Recognition That Speaks for Itself

In 2022, Hanagoyomi received Wine Spectator's Best of Award of Excellence, a distinction that reflects not only the quality of the cellar but the seriousness with which wine pairing is approached alongside the Japanese menu. For a restaurant rooted in a culinary tradition where sake has long held precedence, earning that level of wine recognition signals genuine commitment to the full dining experience.

The Setting

The Kahala Hotel & Resort Yokohama positions itself around the idea of timeless luxury — a property with 146 guest rooms and a range of facilities including a spa, ballroom, and boutique. Hanagoyomi draws on that atmosphere: composed, unhurried, and attentive. Whether guests are visiting for a set lunch, a private dinner, or a longer stay at the hotel, the restaurant is equipped for table service, wine pairing, and private gatherings.

A Destination for Japanese Dining in Yokohama

For those seeking serious Japanese cuisine in Yokohama, Hanagoyomi offers a rare combination — the polish of a luxury hotel environment with the specificity of a kitchen dedicated to a single culinary tradition. The teppanyaki counter provides a more theatrical counterpart for those who want to watch the craft up close, while the main dining room lends itself to quieter, more contemplative meals.
