A marriage between a French gourmet bistro and a Japanese tavern is hidden behind a noren (a vertical fabric divider hung across the doorways of shops in Japan). Ilô is also the lair of a particularly inspired duet, both of whom worked at the star-rated Sola. On one side, Yuki Onuma supervises the service, suggesting perceptive, spot-on wine/saké-food pairings, while on the other, chef Seiya Kumabe conjures up a culinary patchwork of Gallic bistronomy with a smattering of Japanese allusions.
