Booking a four-seat counter used to mean a phone call and a bit of luck. You called, hoped the seats were free, and sometimes left unsure. Online booking changes that: the floor plan shows exactly what is left, and you decide with full information.
What Online Booking Changes
The heart of the page is the visual plan. Instead of a list of abstract times, you look at the room as it is: the narrow counter facing the chef's board, the dining-room tables, the tatami room for more intimate evenings, and the terrace when the season allows. What is free shows up, and so does what is taken.
That transparency avoids unpleasant surprises. Before you confirm, you know whether you are getting the counter or a table, whether the terrace is open tonight, and how many seats remain at your preferred time.
Reading the Floor Plan
The plan reads the way you walk in. The counter is up front, where the chef works. The dining room fills the heart of the space. The tatami room, set apart, suits dinners that want a little quiet. The terrace only appears in season.
Tap a space to see its seats and the time that works for you. The plan updates availability as reservations come in, so what you see is what is actually open.
Why the counter has only four seatsThe rarity that gives Aji's counter its charm.Choosing the Four-Seat Counter
The four counter seats are the most requested, especially on weekends. On the plan, select the counter: if seats remain, they are yours. If it is full at your time, the plan points you to a table where the same omakase awaits, or to another slot with the counter open.
For a small group, you can book all four seats together and have the counter to yourselves. Beyond four guests, the dining room or tatami room takes over, always with the chef-composed sequence of pieces.
The Two-Hour Seating
Each reservation allows two hours at the table. That is the time the omakase needs to unfold without rushing: you taste, let your palate breathe between pieces, and talk with the chef at the counter. This window also lets us welcome every guest with the same care, without hurrying anyone.
If you are planning a longer meal for a special occasion, flag it when you book. We will tell you what is possible given the time slot and how busy the evening is.
