Pellegrino is widely regarded as one of the top Italian dining experiences in Tokyo, particularly praised for its exceptional prosciutto. Reviewers highlight the unique structure of the meal, which is split into two parts to emphasize the quality of the ingredients and the dining experience. Chef Hayato is noted for his superb culinary skills and excellent wine pairings. With only six seats, the restaurant offers an intimate, private-dinner atmosphere that many find fantastic and authentic. However, opinions on value vary; while most are impressed, some feel the non-prosciutto dishes lack refinement relative to the high price point. Additionally, while most enjoy the intimacy, a minority of visitors found the atmosphere somewhat uncomfortable. Overall, it remains a highly recommended spot for dedicated food lovers.
