Hey there! Welcome to Fuji Japan Travel. Today, I’m super excited to take you on a culinary adventure with our ‘Top 20 Lunch Spots in Tokyo.’ If you find yourself in Tokyo, chances are, you’ll swing by Ginza Station at least once. So now I’m walking around Ginza station right now.
We’re diving into a treasure trove of nutrition and taste at a must visit diner located Ginza. Nestled on the B2 floor of Tokyo Plaza. This spot is a breeze to get to thanks to its direct connection to Ginza Station. Just follow the underground path and you’re there. But this isn’t just any diner.
It’s a unique blend of delicious eats and delicious fashion, offering both a fantastic food lifestyle and a side of shopping fun. It opens from 11 a.m. and I arrived 12:30 p.m. this time. A customizable meal set with a choice of three side dishes
From an impressive selection of 12 everything from homemade stewed eggs to squid with chili pepper. It’s a tough choice. This time I choose the homemade stir fried burdock, ginger, marinated eggplant and cod roast du. And for the main course, I couldn’t resist the Japanese Shinjuku chicken set. Priced at ¥1,500. There’s also
A choice between white rice and germinated brown rice. See it each chicken piece is generously sized, perfectly fried to achieve that irresistible crunch and served hot. Yummy. By the way, this kind of chicken is called Curry in Japan. So remember, if you come to Japan.
Next place is a rare find specializing in Mangalore Asian cuisine. This restaurant has quickly made a name for itself. Landing on the Tabelog’s Top 100 list within its first year and scoring a spot in the Michelin Bib gourmand in just under two years. Tucked away in “Ginza INZ2”,
A quaint shopping center directly connected to Ginza Station, this spacious eatery boasts 46 seats, offering stunning window side counter views and comfortable table seating. Despite its unexpected size from the outside, it’s a cozy retreat for food lovers. I visited for a weekday lunch around 2 p.m., finding it pleasantly quiet with most patrons
Dining solo. The restaurant wasn’t crowded, making for a relaxed dining experience. This time I choose their weekday special, The Mangalore Fish Tally for ¥1,600. The name inspired by the Indian coastal town of Mangalore. The order process is modern with mobile ordering, allowing you to choose your preferred rice or bread. The fish curry
Featured Spanish mackerel, and there was also a mackerel dish. Both were absolutely delightful, and it’s easy to see why regulars keep coming back. The curry was milder and more approachable than typical Indian curries. A pleasant surprise with its unique inclusion of Spanish mackerel. The meal also came
With a thorough soup and a salad mixed with green beans and coconut. Offering a subtle coconut flavor that’s addictive. And for drinks, options like glass beer and sesame coconut shake were all pleasantly priced at ¥300! For the sides. I choose the near dosa. I’ve never eat before.
This incredibly soft and slightly sweet bread was unlike any I’ve tasted more akin to a crepe than usual bread, it seems like made from rice, flour and coconut without fermentation. I found an absolute Japanese restaurant jam where you can enjoy an abundance of traditional Japanese cuisine.
This delightful spot prides itself on serving fresh sashimi sourced daily from Hokkaido to Kyushu and its signature homemade tofu made from carefully selected soybeans. Open from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., closed on Sundays. I visited just before 1 p.m. on a weekday and were seated after a short ten minute wait.
I decided to go for the daily lunch special, priced at an incredible ¥1,200. To my surprise, the meal included the tuna with grated yam and the pork fillet cutlet. For the main dishes, it generously included both along alongside. I was treated to a steamed egg custard, rice, salad, a side dish,
Homemade miso soup, pickles, dessert and a drink to finish. By the way, in Ginza, cost performance and quality might seem like opposite concepts, but this restaurant manages to bring both to the table. Thanks. I’ll visit again with my gradmother. Actually, as much as I wanted to keep this place my little secret,
But my duty as a foodie YouTuber calls me to share these fantastic things with you guys 🙂 The pork cutlet was crispy yet light perfect for savoring in bite sized pieces. The tuna was generously topped with a luxurious amount of grated yam and the pickled vegetables were a delightful addition.
Every dish was crafted with care, offering a visually stunning and varied tasting experience that truly made my day. It’s all about enjoying a variety of flavors in a vibrant and welcoming setting. The drink options were diverse from hot coffee to Korean Citron tea Cafe, Olé to Mango Juice, offering something for everyone.
Just 2 minutes walk from Higashi Ginza Station right next to the Millennium Mitsui Garden Hotel, there’s a slice of authentic Italy waiting for you. Here, you’ll be transported straight to Italy with a selection of dishes made from the finest Italian and domestic ingredients. Every dish I saw was lavishly prepared,
Brimming with ingredients and presented beautifully. All priced at a uniform ¥1,300. That not all. Each set comes with a starter salad and a drink with the added perk of free refills on your drink after 1 p.m. Tempted by the array of other mouthwatering options
Like meat sauce, seafood pasta and grilled pork loin steak. It’s reassuring to know there’s no fear of your favorite being sold out. This reliability makes you want to come back for more. I opted for the S lunch set, which ranged from A to G, and S.
The meal kicked off with a salad featuring moist chicken, prosciutto, carrot and red cabbage julienne. And even came with focaccia a generous starter that’s sure to please. So my choice was the most popular dish the oil based spaghetti with clams, mussels and cherry tomatoes.
The spaghetti was a treasure trove of succulent clams and mussels, perfectly paired with the sweetness of cherry tomatoes and a hint of garlic. It’s clear why this dish is a crowd pleaser, And the drink options from coffee and orange juice to…. omg there is wine also. perfect. In 1-chome
Station and a short three minute stroll from Ginza Station awaits a culinary delight on the eighth floor of the Ginza Belvedere building. Here, amidst the hustle and bustle of Ginza, you’ll find a quaint Italian restaurant that brings a slice of Tuscany right to Tokyo. Here, I am! Ta-da!
Open for lunch from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m, This spot offers a peaceful dining experience, especially if you swing by just around noon on a weekday. COCORICO, the restaurant’s name echoes the Latin call of a rooster fitting for a place that boasts exquisite rotisserie chicken and homemade, hand-crafted pasta.
The interior draws inspiration from Trevino’s rustic cottages in Italy’s far north, creating a modern space filled with antique touches. It’s spacious with plenty of room between tables, offering a casual and inviting atmosphere perfect for dropping in anytime. The star of the lunch menu? There is a rotisserie chicken lovingly prepared
Using Kagoshima’s Satsuma chicken fed a diet of herbs and raised without antibiotics or anti-microbials. Seasoned with select salts and slowly roasted to perfection. It’s available in half or quarter sizes. I choose all out with the half size for ¥1,900, a hearty choice complemented by a salad, a mini dessert and a drink.
Tackling the generously sized chicken was a challenge, but one bite and you’re rewarded with juicy, tender meat beneath crispy, flavorful skin. Who don’t like that?! Served with lemon and spices, you can enjoy varying flavors with each bite. If you’re pressed for time, they recommend trying the pasta lunch
Instead as savoring the chicken leisurely is part of the joy. The dessert, a rich panna cotta was the perfect ending, especially paired with a coffee! With its cozy ambiance, delicious food, and generous portions this hidden gem in Ginza is definitely worth a visit. Let’s head
Over to a cozy bistro located just a two minute walk from Mitsukoshi Mae Station on the third floor of Coredo Muromachi. Nestled conveniently close to Tokyo Station and within reach of Ginza. This spot is a hidden gem in an area that’s surprisingly quiet compared to the usual tourist spots. Arriving around 11:30 a.m.
It quite peaceful, but post noon it quickly filled up. Lunch runs from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., so you’ve got plenty of time to beat the rush. This bistro is ideal for those craving a hearty meat dish and with various lunch combinations available, it’s a fun spot
For those looking to mix things up and try new flavor combos For today’s lunch, I chose the set priced at ¥1,500, which lets you choose your starter and main course. Plus it comes with bread. I opted for the winter leek vinaigrette salad as a starter and Ishikawa
Tea’s cabbage stuffed hamburger with demi glass sauce as the main. And if you have a Mitsui point card, you can even snag a free coffee or tea. Definitely worth mentioning if you have one. There’s a white wine fair going on, offering a selection at great prices,
Making this bistro perfect for casual wine lovers. And yes, the bread that comes with the set is refillable perfect for dipping in that rich demi glass sauce. When the hamburger arrived, I was amazed at its size. Way bigger than expected. This unique burger is packed with chunks of cabbage,
Offering a crunchy texture that’s quite a delight served over mashed potatoes. It’s a hearty meal that really fills you up with chicken and fish options, also tending to be on the larger side. You’re guaranteed a satisfying lunch. Next up, let me introduce you
To a bustling Vietnamese restaurant that’s a hit even on weekdays. Open for lunch from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. I visited at 1 p.m. on a weekday to find it quickly filling up after arrival. The menu’s emphasis on vegetables seems to attract a predominantly female clientele, contributing to a lively atmosphere. The restaurant
Spans two floors, with the second floor appearing to be the main dining area, offering a variety of seating options, including high chairs, sofa tables and low tables. Despite the close proximity of the tables, which seems ideal for dinner parties, the warm orange
Lighting and the art adorning the walls create a cozy and inviting space. The staff’s friendly and prompt service adds to the welcoming atmosphere, making it a memorable spot for solo diners as well. One of the standout features of their weekday lunch menu is the unbeatable combination of value and variety.
Every dish is priced at just ¥1,200, and it includes free drink bar!! Now is still before lunch time, so it was almost just for me. It’s always good “free” for everywhere. I was personally taken aback by how incredible this offer was. For my meal, I opted for the Beef Pho!
The staff told me this is the most popular menu in the restaurant! The secret seems like thier soup! The soup simmered for 8 hours, was rich in flavor, undoubtedly making it the best five ever had. It’s the kind of meal that makes you question
If it’s even legal to enjoy something this delicious in the middle of a workday. Such a happiness time. But it’s not just about the quick service or the delicious main course. The set also comes with rice, fried spring rolls, the Vietnamese dessert chain and homemade crispy skin char shell. Given
The generous portions, the meal offers an almost overwhelming sense of satisfaction🎶 Continuation, Mitsukoshi mae area right now. This restaurant is actually a favorite of mine for its incredible flavors and staff’s atmosphere. Opens at 11 a.m. and this time I visited around 2 p.m. on a weekday. It was met
With a quiet atmosphere perfect for a leisurely meal. I think it because this area is surrounded by a lot of office building, therefore comparative empty If you can avoid lunchtime for their break. What makes this place truly special is its history. Starting as a Western style restaurant in 1947
And evolving into a haven for aged Wagyu beef and Sicilian wines. On this occasion, I went for the aged black wagyu hamburger with grated radish japanese ponzu sauce for ¥1,500. The dish was beautifully accompanied by vibrant vegetables and choosing the multigrain rice added a wholesome touch.
The meal even came with a drink and dessert rounding off the dining experience perfectly. The menu, reflective of its Western style origins, offers a variety of dishes like skirt steak, roast beef and beef stew. The beef here undergoes a 35 day dry aging process,
Intensifying its natural flavors and resulting in incredibly tender meat. Continuing with our exploration, let’s dive into a Thai restaurant nestled within the Coredo Muromachi shopping complex. Coredo Muromachi is a modern shopping complex located in the Nihombashi area of Tokyo, Japan. It’s part of a larger redevelopment project aimed
At revitalizing one of Tokyo’s oldest commercial districts. These buildings host a variety of shops, restaurants, cafes and cultural facilities, offering a mix of traditional and contemporary Japanese goods and dining experiences. This restaurant prides itself on importing herbs and seasonings directly from Thailand and sharing authentic flavors with a menu
Boasting surprisingly over 80 dishes, of course my favorite thailand curries. Tom Yum gung or pad Thai. The variety is impressive. The restaurant’s ambiance transports you far from the Tokyo. With its spacious layout, Indian inspired paintings and decorations, soft green walls and high ceilings, creating an unexpectedly ethnic vibe. The seating
Options from long window side tables to secluded spots divided by vibrant curtains elevate the dining experience. The privacy partitions between tables make it particularly appealing for solo diners, hinting at a female friendly clientele. So if you find yourself near the area, this Thai restaurant is a must visit for its authentic flavors.
Varied menu and unique dining atmosphere all add an exceptional value in Tokyo. For my lunch, I chose the mixed plate of Gapao rice and Thai curry for ¥1,300. The curry is available from yellow, red and green curry. I chose green curry! Packed with chicken and eggplant.
It was incredibly satisfying and arrived surprisingly fast. Serve piping hot, breaking the soft boiled egg over the rice was the perfect touch. With lunchtime drinks at a ¥200 discount and a point guard provided, the value here stands out among the restaurants I’ve introduced. Additionally, each dish comes with soup
And a choice between a mini salad or dessert. Mind being a delightful tapioca coconut milk. Yes, I like it. Takashimaya Nihombashi, known for being one of Tokyo’s major shopping malls, Takashimaya offers more than just a shopping spree. It’s a prestigious department store located in the historic Nihombashi district.
Founded in 1831 as a kimono shop, it has grown into one of Japan’s most iconic and respected retail brands! When it’s less crowded, It’s the perfect spot for a leisurely visit. Despite its proximity to Ginza, known for attracting plenty of international visitors. I think this area offers a comparatively easy stroll.
This restaurant offers a sophisticated, yet casual dining experience. While it may seem like a traditional Japanese restaurant at first glance. Its surprises with a diverse menu that includes Teppanyaki dishes complemented by a selection of drinks ranging from saké to fruit sours, making it a versatile spot even for dinner.
The interior boasts high ceilings and a central location that allows for stunning views through its large windows. For my meal. I went with the signature Ryukyu Donburi set for ¥1,500. I’ve never tried this dish. The Ryukyu Don is a local dish from Okinawa Prefecture
Featuring marinated sashimi on rice, finished with a pour of broth. It originated as a food eaten by fishermen. This set not only includes a flavorful bowl, but also comes with two side dishes miso soup and pickles. And the food was served in just about 3 minutes from ordering
A delightful surprise for those of us who appreciate prompt service. As I delved into my meal, adding the broth halfway through allowed for a gentle taste. It was complemented by the variety of condiments available on the table for flavor adjustments. Next is Japanese hub!
Just a minutes walk from Shimokitazawa station, nestled within mall called Mikan, a vibrant complex born from the historic embankments of the Kaio Inokashira line lies a world where work and play blend seamlessly. Mikan comprising five distinct blocks, symbolizes a fusion of genres and values, mirroring the eclectic spirit of Shimokitazawa.
Here, the unexpected becomes the norm and a tapestry of diverse people and experiences weaves itself together. There are seems like more than just izakaya! There is a popular bookstore suited to an array of tantalizing Thai restaurants. There’s something for every taste and mood. My visit at around 6PM
On a weekday revealed a lively, yet cozy atmosphere with a few groups already enjoying the ambiance. I recommend making a reservation, especially as the place tends to get busier around this time. Shimokita getting popular among young people for old clothes or curry shops around there!
The izakaya here embraces the concept of Japan Craft every detail. From the counter to the lighting and furniture is a testament to the skill of Japanese artisans, this isn’t just a place to dine! The focus on shochu a traditional Japanese spirit is evident. You’ll find classic drinks alongside
Innovative concoctions tailored for the modern palate. The menu, featuring daily and weekly specials, offers a variety of dishes that perfectly complement the showcase selection. My culinary journey began with a delightful seared yellowtail and a unique eggplant dish. The staff kindly make me both as single servings!
The highlight, however, was the freshly made carriage absolutely. For a lighter option, the Negitoro Ikura with Korean seaweed is a must try. Served on a large plate. It’s a simple, yet satisfying dish where you mix the ingredients yourself and wrap them in seaweed. Its popularity among solo diners and regulars,
Especially women, adds to the inclusive and welcoming vibe of the izakaya. This is my favorite! Crispy fried chicken pieces are a testament to flavor and texture perfectly paired with a strong drink. And for a refreshing twist, don’t miss the signature fruit punch sour a delightful mix of mango, banana and more.
So whether you’re a solo adventurer or in a group looking for a taste of Japan’s craft or just a cozy spot to unwind this corner of Shima Kitagawa has something special for you. All right. I’m just a hop away from Tokyu Toyoko line Yutenji station.
This area off an overshadowed by its more famous neighbor, Nakameguro exudes a quiet charm, distinctly different from the usual tourist spots. Our destination is a unique spot on the second floor of a building infront of the station! But there is no signboard at all, so it was hard to find for me.
It’s a bit of a hidden treasure, almost like a secret base which has been buzzing on Instagram lately. This place, popular among young women in their twenties, often sees groups enjoying the cozy ambiance inside. The restaurant is a haven of antique elegance with a kitchen surrounded by a wraparound counter.
This layout makes it surprisingly welcoming for solo like myself. The menu here is a delightful puzzle, constantly changing every two weeks. …What? Their such a nice effort makes me come back here again more. And the dishes here was particulary great, so let me share with you.
Their signature dishes, along with the recommended options like Oden, make deciding what to eat a fun challenge. And here is funny options. I can choose from three different types for otoshi which means appetizers. I went for the warm Nyumen, a perfect comfort dish for cold days. And here!
This fried spring rolls served piping hot by the staff are a must try… Wrapped in a crispy shell, they’re filled with crunchy yam and melting cheese. A hit among the ladies for sure. The Oden selection isn’t just the usual radish and cognac. They also offer unique items like seaweed, mozzarella and premium yellowtail.
I paired these with a dress sake named Izumi, recommended specifically for Oden. Pairing Oden and Sake is must try for winter season. Among the restaurant’s three specialties, chicken sashimi, grilled young chicken and grilled egg. I chose the chicken sashimi. It’s available in single servings, but I went for the regular size
🙂 Ho ho ho here is a hungry monster hi😈 Visually striking the dishes here are not only Instagram worthy, but also offer great value for their generous portions. We’re at Gakugei-daigaku station with my friends, this area is a bustling express stop on the Tokyu Toyoko line, as same as Yutenji.
Just four stations away from Shibuya. With around 80,000 daily passengers, it’s a lively hub, especially since it used to be near the major award office. Though the ward office moved near Nakameguro Station in the early 2000s leading to a dip in foot traffic. Their original drink, Carbo sour priced at ¥650.
It’s a unique twist on the classic lemon sour softened with honey for a sweet, less acidic taste. This area has recently been regaining its popularity. Gakugei-daigaku is renowned for its vibrant shopping streets, particularly the East Exit Shopping Street, stretching about 300 meters, just wide enough for a car to pass through.
It’s lined with a diverse array of eateries and retail stores. The area is characterized by its local intimate shops and stylish dining spots hidden in the alleys. I made a reservation for around 5 p.m. on a Saturday and the place was already buzzing with almost young ladies!
Interestingly, this spot has a unique rule with a two hour seating limit and more than 4 dishes. It’s raley to see, but i think because popular. How about in your country? The restaurant is cozy with a kitchen encircled by counters, seats and about three table seats.
The warm, homey ambiance is accentuated by the wood decor. The counter in particular offers a friendly atmosphere where you’re close enough to chat with the staff and fellow diners. Despite being almost full, the service was prompt. Thanks to the four staff members efficiently managing the kitchen. The seasonal fruit, prosciutto and honey Gorgonzola
Mousse for ¥800 featured pear topped generously with gorgonzola mousse. The menu is impressively extensive, offering a delightful dilemma of choices from cold dishes, hot dishes, charcoal grilled items, desserts to snacks. I opted for the smoked chicken and lotus root macaroni salad for ¥600 from the day’s specials.
The combination of the crunchy lotus root and the Italian style seasoning was unexpectedly Harmonia. Next, the appetizer platter for ¥800, featuring five varieties like celery, liver, cauliflower with Tasmanian mustard, mayonnaise, omelet and marinated sea bream. Each dishes was just the right size for sharing and beautifully presented
On a wooden board, making it perfect for a social media story. The spice cauliflower salad was pleasantly mild despite its Asian twist. Here we are Sangenjaya in Setagaya, just two stops from Shibuya on the Tokyu-denentoshi line. Known for its youthful vibe, Sangenjaya is a favorite
Among working professionals in their twenties and 30 seconds. Thanks to its convenient access to Subway’s bustling adventure. A quick 15 minute bike ride along Shallow, a street north of the station will also take you to Shimokitazawa! This area is No,1 popular area for place to live in Tokyo.
Today’s place is a quaint Kyushu Izakaya, a mere five minute walk from the station. The interior has a nostalgic feel reminiscent of an old Japanese house, complete with Kotasu seating table seats and a counter. A word of caution The Kotatsu seats might feel a bit snug for a group of for men.
As a Kyushu Izakaya, it’s a haven for those craving dishes like Motsunabe, horse sashimi, as well as a lively spot to chat and hang out with friends. The Izakaya concept revolves around bringing Quiches delicacies to Tokyo. You can savor Hukuoka, Hakata’s famous bite sized Gyoza. Kumamoto’s local specialty Horse sashimi, Nagasaki
Champagne and sweet is renowned for it and chicken tempura. All dishes are from Kyusyu area! They also boast a wide selection of Kyushu shochu and locals sake. Perfect for those looking to explore different Japanese alcoholic beverages. Some of the standout dishes I tried included the Kumamoto direct
Delivery horse sashimi, delightful bite sized Gyoza, two servings for ¥1,380. Spicy grilled mentaiko etc. I couldn’t miss the signature dish, Motsu-nabe priced at ¥1,590. The hot parts broth is subtly flavored, allowing you to customize the taste with soy sauce or yuzu pepper to your liking.
It’s an interactive and enjoyable dish that lets you experience a variety of flavors. This is motsunabe. So if you’re in Tokyo and looking to experience the culinary delights of Kyushu, you must visit here! Okay next. Are you still here? eight minute stroll from Shibuya station to a hidden gem, a local izakaya
Cherished by those in the know. Nestled halfway between Shibuya and Stinson stations, this area is a favorite among regulars. Slightly away from the bustling center of Shibuya. Speaking of Shibuya, it’s divided into roughly five areas. The busy downtown district, the Sakura Gaoka areas, the Aoyama street
Areas, the Cat Street area and the Oku Shibuya area. We’re venturing into the Oku Shibuya area today with my friends. A spot that has recently gained popularity among adults. This part of Shibuya, stretching beyond the Tokyo Department store from Shibuya Center Street towards yoyogiuehara!
This area is not just a high end residential area, it also boasts a mix of old school shopping streets and trendy eateries and shops. It offers a different, quieter side of Shibuya, away from its usual hustle and bustle as you imagine. Our visit on a Friday night around 10:30 p.m.
Revealed a nearly full izakaya. Popular for second or third rounds of drinks after a night out. Make sure to book early as reservations fill up fast, especially for laid hours close to shifts and station. The izakaya seems to attract mostly adult male customers. It’s more about lively group
Gatherings than solo drinking with a consistently vibrant atmosphere. Being a short walk from Shibuya Station, it feels like a spot frequented more by regulars than casual passersby. For dinner, we tried the Okinawa soba with beef and leeks for ¥900. The dish was a delightful surprise, rich in flavor and different from regular soba.
The noodles were thick, resembling udon and the mochi like texture perfectly complemented the spicy sauce. A unique dish from Okinawa. It was my first time trying it in Tokyo, and it’s certainly something that pairs well with drinks and leaves you craving more. From now on, I’ll take you Sushi journey!
Firstly, let me take you to the classic style sushi restaurant located in Ginza. As I stroll through Ginza, I’ll pass by landmarks like the Wako building with its iconic clock tower, a beacon of luxury. Since the Meiji era. Then there’s the Kabuki theater, offering a taste of traditional
Japanese Kabuki performances right in the heart of the city. Ginza’s transformation over the centuries is a testament to Tokyo’s resilience and forward thinking from its days as a silver meant to its current status as a trendsetter in fashion, art and dining. Ginza has always been a place of innovation and elegance.
Right beneath the bustling streets in a shopping mall blaze, a hidden gem of a sushi spot that’s been delighting locals and travelers alike for ages. Born out of Tokyo’s massive postwar transformation, this area, once part of Edo Castle’s outer moat, now buzzes with life
Thanks to the Tokyo Expressway and the vibrant spaces beneath it. I visited this sushi haven right as they opened on a weekday, and boy, it didn’t take long for it to fill up. But thanks to its location, the turnover is pretty quick, so snagging a spot wasn’t as hard as we thought.
This place prides itself on selecting the freshest fish from the market daily, crafting sushi that’s in harmony with the seasons. The dedication, everything from sourcing to serving is handled by the master chef himself, ensuring only the freshest bites make it to your plate. This time I ordered their limited offer, the generous nigiri
Set for just ¥1,400, a steal that’s even available on weekends. This is just for ten servings per day. The set includes a variety of nigiri like octopus, gizzard, shad, squid, and more, all vibrant and tempting. Plus, it comes with a roll in miso soup, even featuring the luxurious addition of cod sperm.
Talk about indulgence. The atmosphere here is welcoming to all. From solo diners to groups with a cozy counter seating where you can witness the magic up close. Despite its popularity among regulars, the warmth of the hosts makes everyone feel right at home. Just a short
Walk from Shibuya station to the Yoyogi Station area, nestled in the quaint neighborhood of Sendagaya,Shibuya. It’s a serene spot loved locals. Perfect for morning jogs with the National stadium close by and less foot traffic than the bustling streets of Shibuya. Now I’m here to let you in on a little secret.
A sushi place that’s so under the radar. Only those in the know know about it. With only ten servings available each day, I arrived with determination to taste their exclusive sushi crossing a quaint railway. I spotted a small sign leading me to a cozy establishment on the second floor of a modest building.
Greeted warmly by the lively staff, it felt welcoming right from the start, even for first timers like me. It seemed I was the only newcomers, with every other patron appearing to be irregular, enjoying their meals and leaving promptly a sign of efficient service and good turnover.
The place boasts 38 seats, with counter seats greeting you as you enter and table seating further inside. It operates during dinner, but seems like the counter is the go to spot for lunch. For my visit I opted for the weekday lunch special Umi set priced at an unbelievable ¥1,000.
And remember, it’s limited to just ten servings a day. The set included ten pieces of sushi and miso soup, featuring a daily selection of staples like tuna, salmon, egg, shrimp and white fish like Sebring. Every sushi is my favorite one. The quality and freshness were so impressive it had us questioning,
Is this really only ¥1,000? The vibe was laid back with a regular crowd at lunch on weekdays, but it felt easy to join as many diners were so low. This spot’s casual atmosphere and limited yet delicious, offering make it a must visit for anyone
Looking for an authentic, budget friendly sushi experience in Tokyo. Are you ready for the authentic sushi restaurant Tsukiji? Do you know about the Tsukiji area? Tsukiji Inner Market to Toyosu in 2018, ending its long standing reign since 1935 as Japan’s kitchen. Tsukiji continues to charm both locals and tourists alike,
Especially those keen on experiencing its lively market vibes. It’s a weekday morning and the streets are peaceful, making it the perfect time to explore. I arrived just around the opening time at 11:30 a.m., beating the crowd. The early bird truly catches the worm here
As by noon it was a full house with a queue forming outside. This spot is a favorite among the locals, often frequented by an older regular clientele that really gives it that authentic community feel. Trust me. A place loved by locals is a place worth visiting for today’s meal.
I ordered for the bar at Bara chirashi bowl at ¥1,500. This isn’t just any bowl. It comes with steamed egg custard, a side dish and miso soup. The combination of sushi and steamed egg custard. Absolutely a mood lifter. The bowl itself is generously filled with large cuts of fresh seafood over
Rice, offering not just a feast the eyes, but an incredibly satisfying meal with people coming in for a quick business lunch or a casual meal. The turnover is pretty swift, making it a great spot for a speedy, yet delicious lunch. And the best part. Okay, guys, let me summarize.
It’s just a short walk from Ginza, making it an ideal stop for anyone looking for an affordable, yet utterly delectable seafood lunch. There is no reason not to visit here. Please save to your Google Maps. Wrapping up our top picks,
We’re diving into a spot that’s a hit with the young crowd in Sangenjaya. Imagine sushi and wine coming together in a vibrant pop fusion. This time, I visited for dinner! It’s where creativity meets casual dining with a sommelier, wine selection and saké diploma holder chosen sakes.
You’re in for a treat without breaking the bank. Sushi starts at just ¥99 per piece with glass, wine and saké from ¥499. A steal compared to Ginza’s night scene. Boasting over 80 types of dishes, deciding to order can be a delightful dilemma…but I decided!
We kicked things off with a black bean mascarpone for ¥500. A snack like dish. Perfect with wine followed by a unique green tea mix with Kagoshima tea leaves showcasing Japan’s love for blending traditional drinks with meals. The place also offers an array of unusual drinks,
From wine, plum liquor to kiwi sours and craft beers. Sushi here can be ordered piece by piece, allowing us to try a variety, including tuna, ikira with seaweed tsukudani and Scallion rolls. Let’s venture into an area that’s recently getting popular places. This is Yoyogi Uehara neighborhood.
This spot, not far from the hustle of Shibuya, is like stepping back in time with its traditional shopping streets filled with quaint shops and eateries where everyone seems to know each other. It’s a foodie’s paradise with countless local favorites that even the residents swear by. And guess what?
It’s still off the radar for most tourists in this hidden nook. I discovered an incredible izakaya known for its sushi, nestled just a few steps underground, but slightly off the beaten path, making it a true hidden gem. The ambiance inside is a mix of cozy and upscale,
Bustling with energy, especially on a Friday night. When I visited, it was packed mainly with groups enjoying their end of year parties showing just how popular this place is with the locals. The menu here focuses on bringing out the natural flavors of fresh ingredients,
With sashimi being a highlight due to its impeccable freshness. After a long day, there’s nothing like rewarding yourself with some of their finest drinks, a sentiment that’s universally understood and cherished. Our meal kicked off with an omakase selection of five types of sushi,
Hand-picked and crafted by the chef from the day’s freshest catch, including some exotic options like kinme dai which is golden snapper. Then there was the intriguing negitoro with Takuwan, pickled radish, offering a crunchy texture that’s a staple in Japanese cuisine. The berry daikon braised yellowtail with radish followed a comforting dish.
That’s a must in winter. We also tried the shirako tempura, a delicacy that might challenge some international palates since shirako refers to fish sperm sex. While it’s considered a delicacy in Japan known for its creamy texture and delicate flavor, it’s understandably an acquired taste for many from abroad.
