Concept :

BENITSUYA is a Japanese restaurant where diners can experience authentic Japanese kaiseki cuisine and traditional Japanese geisha culture in a gorgeous Japanese modern space with crimson walls and Japanese decorations.

It opened in November 2024 on the 6th floor of Grand Hammer, a food entertainment and leisure building created by Producer Hamakura, who developed Ebisu Yokocho, Shibuya Yokocho, Kabuki Hall and more.

Supervised by Naoki Okumura of Gion Okumura, they offer a high-quality Japanese course from Kyoto and traditional Japanese performing arts such as dance by authentic geisha right in front diners. It provides a place where not only businesspeople, but also a wide range of guests from all over Japan and overseas can casually experience playing with authentic geisha, which is part of the geisha culture, and learn the etiquette. It also creates a place where geisha can perform traditional performing arts, and plays a role as a place to connect the historic geisha culture to the next generation.
