One of the best sushi i have ever eaten! Jiro-san is almost 90 better try this! Once in a lifetime experience. Be prepared for your dialogue in japanese as well. Bring around Y30,000+ for sushi course
Reservation obligatory. Tickeys can be purposed at Lawson, convenient stores only. Date and time indicated.
Two counters at this enormous, crowded market stand out above the rest: Sushi-Dai and Daiwa Sushi. This is the freshest sushi you will ever try, and the immense variety will impress you too.
The awe-inspiring main residence of Japan's emperor. Apply online in advance for a guided tour.
If you're a tourist, the restaurant requires that you order the unajyu (unagi on rice). To order skewers, drinks, etc. you must know Japanese.
They have very good breads. The japanese one filled with green bean is delicious. You cannot sit anywhere in there (grab&go), but overall they have good food for breakfast or a snack in the afternoon.
Highly recommend the course menus. 📝. Ask the friendly staff to grill the choice cuts for you, they did ours perfectly! 👍
A little hard to find: you have to look for the tiny sign and go down the stairs. But great beers and you can taste before you buy. Small space so don't try to bring a group here.
Themed restaurants are often cheesy and overpriced but the food and entertainment at Ninja Akasaka will exceed expectations.
Really nice place to just hang out. Music is nice, mood is nice, latte art is on point. Definitely a cool cafe
This is a must do! The contemporary works currently on interprets a side of Tokyo that you won't see anywhere else. Pls go.
Go in the evening during the golden hour and watch the sunset. Then wait for the sky to turn dark and the city ligjts to light up. That way, you get to see 2different sights with one ticket.
Tokyo's urban oasis is home to three museums, several shrines, a pond and a zoo. It's breathtaking during the spring Cherry Blossom season.
An extremely peaceful and well-maintained shrine. Come here to get away from the hustle and bustle and appreciate some culture and religion.
The tsukemen is an absolute must. If you can only eat tsukemen once during your trip in Tokyo, make sure it's here 😊
Onsen in a suburban quiet Tokyo area. It's more original and cheap. You get a towel for some extra bucks. Has a restaurant, a zen garden, sauna, jacuzzi and a relaxing spring in the open.
The staff was kind and extremely helpful and their menu is bilingual (Japanese and English). The atmosphere is warm, quiet, and reflective.
What a great place to hang out, chill have a coffee and read. One of the best book shops I've ever visited. it's open everyday until 2am so no need to hurry
Everything about this place! Love it. Come at 4pm when they open to watch the team get into action. Get the fatty option. Mustard is some of the best, goes straight into your nose.
So good, my favorite soba in Tokyo. I recommend getting the larger cut 'futokiri' soba with sesame dipping sauce, divine.
10,000+ records collected over 40 years by the owner and solo bartender! Ultra chill vibe. All drinks are 500 yen including many different whiskies and pour over coffee made carefully. Diverse crowd.
The 16 piece sushi set for ¥15000 was awesome. Each piece made freshly in front of you.
Sip a drink, enjoy the view, and realize you're nowhere near as cool as Bill Murray in Lost in Translation.
Came here at 6:45am on a Tuesday and waited for 15 mins only. Around 20 seats in the restaurant so come early! Def get the omakase - the sushi is really fresh!! 👌🏻😬
Best Bagels in Japan. Open Wednesday through Thursday no sign look for the building with the spiral fire escape staircase out front. Great cream cheese flavors doubles the price of your lunch-do it!
This way-too-cool bike-surfshop cum café tucked in a Harajuku lane serves really good coffee. Sandwiches are hearty meals with fries and salad. Really nice place to just 'zone out' from the crowd.
Incredible gyoza, but somehow the cucumbers with miso sauce were my favorite part 😸
Fantastic view from this mountain. A very enjoyable hike. Do you dare take the chair lift? It's exhilarating!
The chiffon cake here is superb! Very light and airy. Iced milk tea is good as well, plus they use pretty cups for coffee and tea. Japanese menu only so download a translate app before coming.
You pay 200yen at the entrance but it's more than worth it. Gardens are so beautiful, and the grass is more than inviting to sit on;)
Nice ambience, friendly staff, delicious skewers (start with the tasting menu to make sure you get something unusual and you'll be surprised how gorgeous they all are), generous sake/shō-chū servings!
Amazing assortment of drinks, personally a big fan of the Cachaça Martinez, but give the bartender an idea of what you like and they will hook you up with a drink that works.
Their claim to fame is that along with chicken and pork, they add giant clam to their stock, which gives both the shio and shoyu ramen an awesome aromatic, lingering shellfish flavor. Read more.
The owner of this shop, Koitani-san, is one of the ramen legends. He was a founding member of Bassanova, a shop instrumental in nurturing the ramen boom. Read more.
Miso ramen has both Sichuan peppercorns and chili peppers, and you can customize the amount in each bowl. They even have an oni (devil) spice level that’s the ultimate challenge for thrill-seekers. Read more.
The ramen they serve is a really rich tori paitan, or creamy chicken broth. You can get a variety of beautiful toppings. Read more.
