In 2015, Tani obtained full ownership of the restaurant and became owner-chef. HOUSE Tokyo is known for adding a new twist to French cuisine and for offering relaxed and friendly service, which led them to be featured in many publications including Andrea Fazzari’s Tokyo New Wave, which showcases the new guard of Tokyo's vibrant food scene. Tani also established relationships with professional kitchens all over the world by participating in numerous collaborative dinners and art events in cities including London, San Francisco, New York, and Tokyo.
