An absolute superb experience. We’ve gone to Kade No Mise a few times, but this was a special occasion. The dishes were composed of seasonal fresh ingredients with unique preparations that made even the more odd ingredients absolutely delicious. Be prepared that the focus is less on sushi and more seasonality, only one of the dishes was sushi for the month of October. A very rememberable dining experience and we’ll definitely be back.

Kaiseki is more then a meal. It's an experience. It's history. It's culture. It’s based in seasonal ingredients and valuing simplicity. Simplicity that relates back to Japanese tea ceremony. Wabi sabi. I appreciated the teas served alongside the meal and the sake pairing was fantastic. Heads up on the sake pairing, it's a lot of sake so don't do like we did and order a drink before that. The staff is fantastic and very friendly. Just like with Japanese Tea Ceremony remember 'ichi go icho e'.

It is hard to put into words the amazing experience that we had here at Kaiseki Furukawa in Minneapolis. This was the single best meal we have ever had in our lives. It was an honor to dine with Shigeyuki Furukawa and his team. Our minds were blown by the quality of ingredients and the thought and care that went into the design of each item on the 10+ course menu. We also had a sake pairing that added another element throughout. This restaurant is truly a world class gem and we are lucky to have it here here in Twin Cities.

Let me begin with saying if there was a higher rating than 5 stars, I would give it more than that. We came here for our first year anniversary and were not disappointed. The flavors and the presentation of the dishes were reminiscent of summer. For example, one of the bowls had a top that when you turned it over.... there was a painting of fireworks on the surface of the bowl. One of my favorites was the salt grilled fish, it reminded me of something we eat within our culture. Everything seemed personalized. The menu had a "happy anniversary" message on there and at the end of our meal, we had a Polaroid picture taken of us. On top of that, with leftover rice from one of our meals... They made onigiri! It was also heartwarming to see the owner's eyes beam with passion as he described more about the dishes to my girlfriend in Japanese. It feels like to me that there is a lot of heart that went into the dishes and a lot of attention to the small details shows that. After the meal, the owner presented us his business card and told us about how the business card was made (which was very interesting). I've been to some nice places around here but this was truly a different experience that I don't think I could get anywhere around here. Chef Furukawa, thank you for the meal and I look forward to taking my Grandma here one day 🙂.

Food and service was AMAZING. Reservations needed ahead of time along with pre-payment. It was about $160/person. Additional $80 for drink pairing (highly recommend). Food was delicious and well plated. I didn't think I was going to be full from a tasting menu but by the end of it, I was surprisingly full and satisfied. The menu changes monthly as the chef uses ingredients that is in season. Expensive but well worth it. Will definitely be returning.
