Tabelog ratingCanton Ryori Sense (広東料理 センス) offers a sophisticated Cantonese dining experience defined by its dramatic setting on the 37th floor of the Mandarin Oriental Tokyo. The restaurant pairs panoramic views of the city skyline with a menu that features both high-end tasting courses and an all-you-can-eat dim sum lunch, where dishes are ordered individually and cooked fresh.
Guests consistently praise the quality of the cooking, particularly the steamed dumplings like the har gow and a signature truffle and egg-white dumpling. Other frequently lauded dishes include the braised Ezo abalone, prawn with mango-mayonnaise sauce, and the restaurant's rich superior broth (上湯). The elegant plating and extensive selection of Chinese teas also receive high marks, as does the attentive and accommodating service. A minority of reviewers, however, have noted occasional disorganised service during busy periods, and some found the dinner portions underwhelming for the price. Drink prices are considered steep.
For lunch, reviewers in 2024–2026 frequently paid around ¥13,200 for the orderable dim sum set, with a typical spend between ¥8,000 and ¥9,999. Dinner is more expensive, with a typical spend of ¥15,000–¥19,999; one recent review quoted the 'AGATE' course at ¥22,000. Most guests feel the experience justifies the cost, especially for a special occasion, though a few disagree. Note that a 15% service charge is added to all bills.
