Hi everyone, me and my friend are trying to get beef wellington at Wakanui by Tokyo Tower. Their website states beef wellington needs to be ordered 2 days in advance but when trying to book the reservation were not seeing the option for the wellington. We did put in a request to the restaurant and are awaiting their response but has anyone ordered beef wellington from here recently to confirm if they still have it? Or if any one knows anywhere else in the Tokyo area that has it? Many thanks

I'd try calling Wakanui directly around lunchtime when they're less busy, that's when I've had the best luck getting through. If you want a completely different take, the beef wellington at Tapas Molecular Bar in Mandarin Oriental is wild - they do a deconstructed version that's more like a theatrical experience than a meal. Runs about 25k per person but you're paying for the view and the show.

yeah wakanui still does the wellington but it's one of those things where you basically have to email them directly or call to set it up, the online booking system doesn't have a box for it. i've done it before and it's solid but honestly for the price tag i'd rather go to blacows in shibuya if you just want good wagyu, or katsuma in azabu juban does a smaller solo beef wellington that's actually really good and way less hassle to book

yeah wakanui still does the wellington but you gotta call them directly, the online system doesnt handle it well. if that falls through, try the alps in azabujuban, they do a solid one too. or kobe beef kaiseki 511 in shibuya has a wagyu wellington that's pretty insane but pricey around 15k yen per person

honestly the online booking system at wakanui is a mess, calling is def the move. i went about 3 months ago and they still had it, just had to call and specify the date. if you're looking for something different, brasserie paul bocuse in roppongi does a beef wellington that's more traditional french style, not as heavy as wakanui's. around 12k per person and easier to book online

the online booking system for wakanui is kinda useless for the wellington, you really have to call them or go in person to set it up. i was there last month and saw someone eating it, so it's still a thing. if you want another spot, try Taimeiken in Ginza, they do a japanese-style beef stew that's not wellington but hits the same comfort note and doesn't need preorder. also heard good things about the one at Blair House in roppongi but haven't tried it myself
