The tasting menu courses highlight the rich umami of this prized Japanese duck meat. You can enjoy the course paired with wines selected by sommelier Motohiro Okoshi in a relaxed but refined ambiance.
I've been to Na Camo Guro quite a few times now, and every time I go, the menu lineup seems to change a little bit. This time around, everything from the appetizers to the final dishes had been updated since my last visit.
We tried the Mogami Duck Sukiyaki Short Course, which is a tasting menu that showcases different duck dishes. It started with a creamy duck liver mousse appetizer and an assorted appetizer plate.


The main attraction was the sukiyaki hot pot with slices of tender duck breast and thigh, along with vegetables. Unlike regular sukiyaki that has a lot of broth, this one had just a little bit, which really let the flavor of the duck shine.


For the final courses, we had both the "鴨親子丼風" deconstructed duck donburi bowl and the decadent "トリュフTKG" with a soft egg draped in shavings of black truffle. Both were rich and satisfying ways to end the meal.

Lastly, for dessert, we had this scoop of vanilla ice cream with a cute duck-shaped soft cake on top.
Na Camo Guro has a relaxed but upscale feel, with dim lighting that creates a nice ambiance. The servers really know their stuff and are happy to explain each dish's background and preparation. They're attentive without being intrusive.
The restaurant also has private dining rooms, which makes it a good choice for special occasions or business dinners. As someone who's lived in Tokyo for over 15 years, I've been to a lot of casual restaurants, but Na Camo Guro's food really stands out.
They're open on weekdays from 5 pm to 11 pm, and on weekends from 12 pm to 3 pm and 5 pm to 11 pm. Definitely make a reservation, especially for Saturday nights, since they tend to fill up fast. Weekday evenings and weekend lunches are usually a little less crowded.
Na Camo Guro is a great place to try delicious Mogami duck dishes in a variety of creative preparations. It's a must-visit for duck lovers, but be sure to make a reservation in advance, as it's a popular spot among Tokyo food enthusiasts.
