Italian heritage cooking is founded on three basic concepts — simple, fresh and delicious. Such is the doctrine of Aman Tokyo's Italian restaurant Arva, where new summer lunch and dinner menus debuted on June 5.

Dining at Arva symbolizes a return to uncomplicated meals that focus less on the meticulous presentation of nouvelle cuisine and more on paying respect to the flavors nature has to offer.

Lunch at Arva runs from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. with courses starting at ¥4,200. Dinner is served from 5:30 to 10 p.m. at ¥9,000 and up, depending on the selected course and number of guests. Seasonal tasting menus (¥6,900 and ¥17,000 for lunch or dinner, respectively) are also offered. Dining a la carte is another option.
