Located in a hideaway setting on the 2nd floor of a multi-tenant building just steps from Omotesando Station, Kisurin Aoyama's signature dish is dandan noodles featuring a rich blend of deep sesame flavor and fragrant chili oil. The thick soup is layered with umami from dried shrimp and seasoned minced pork, with customizable spice levels, and many regulars come specifically for the limited-quantity paiko (pork rib) dandan noodles. A wide selection of à la carte dishes is also offered, including black vinegar sweet and sour pork with a pleasant balance of sweetness and acidity, Sichuan-style mapo tofu served in a clay pot, and crispy large prawns coated in mayonnaise sauce, all earning praise for their gentle, refined flavors made without chemical seasonings. Eschewing flashy gold and red decor, the interior features a calming atmosphere crafted with the warmth of natural wood, complete with semi-private seating. Guests also appreciate the attentive hospitality, from brisk service to thoughtful provision of sharing plates, and the restaurant is popular enough to draw lines even before lunch opening. With entirely non-smoking seating and a fine wine selection, it is equally well suited for dining with friends or a girls' night out.
