    Agustin Balbi

    Born in Argentina with South American and European roots, Agustin Balbi refined his craft in Japan and Hong Kong, where he developed a distinctive culinary philosophy that blends international sensibility with deeply personal expression.

    At JW Marriott Hotel Tokyo, he oversees the modern Mediterranean restaurant "Sefino," presenting what he calls "Gourmet Emotional" cuisine — dishes inspired by childhood memories and shaped by refined technique.

    Each plate is thoughtfully created to resonate with the heart: warm, evocative, and elegantly composed.

    Inspired by the Caldoso that Chef Agustin Balbi enjoyed at his grandmother's home in childhood—a dish where memory and tradition gently come alive—we present Mediterranean cuisine crafted with warmth and sincerity.

    With meticulous attention to temperature, texture, and the delicate nuances of flavor, each dish is thoughtfully composed to achieve harmony and depth.

    Savor this refined culinary experience alongside Tokyo's glittering night skyline.

    Sefino

    Sefino is a coined name that weaves together three words:
    sea (the ocean) + céfiro (a gentle breeze) + fino (refined).

    Like the soft seasonal wind that heralds the arrival of spring across the Mediterranean — crossing the sea, connecting lands and people, and carrying nature's blessings — Sefino expresses a journey through the Mediterranean, told through cuisine and experience.

    Beginning with a signature macerado cocktail, the dining experience unfolds in a unique and immersive way, creating a refined moment that resonates with the senses. This entire philosophy and world view are embodied in the name Sefino.

    At Sefino, where every detail tells a story,
    we invite you to enjoy a dining experience that feels like traveling across the Mediterranean.
