Gucci Osteria da Massimo Bottura to arrive in Tokyo in 2021

Gucci Osteria Tokyo, a contemporary Italian restaurant created by world’s leading luxury fashion brand Gucci and world-renowned chef Massimo Bottura, is scheduled to open its doors in Ginza in 2021 (date TBC).

Located on the top floor of Gucci Namiki – Gucci’s latest flagship store which will open on the 29th April – Gucci Osteria Tokyo will be curated by three-Michelin star chef Massimo Bottura in collaboration with Karime Lòpez, Head Chef of the original Gucci Osteria in Florence that was awarded its first Michelin star in the 2020. The restaurant will have its own dedicated entrance from street level.

This will be the third global outpost for Gucci Osteria, the first of which opened in January 2018 at the Gucci Garden in Florence and the second in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles in February 2020.

Gucci Osteria da Massimo Bottura are a series of contemporary restaurants that share the same values and principles under one Gucci Osteria umbrella. Located in selected world cities, each celebrates their own varied and unique identity, while sharing a culinary philosophy that rides the wave of the seasons with creativity, elegance, playfulness and sensuality. Capturing the youthful energy embodied in Maison Gucci and its parallels with the philosophy of chef Massimo Bottura, Gucci Osteria draws from a thread of legacy: always contemporary in its present, yet ever driving forward to the future.
