This Okonomiyaki restaurant is located in Subnade department store at Shinjuku station. I have been walking past the restaurant a few times before I really went for dinner, and there was always people...
This is a great place to go with a large group of people and drink. The drinks are good, and with the members card (only around 300Yen) they are really, really cheap. The food can be a hit or miss. It...
Kebab Ye is the only non-Japanese fare I will eat when in Tokyo. I can't much be bothered with heavy Western and Asian fare when I'm surrounded by the best-prepared, healthiest seafood and other offer...
In the world of Tokyo tsukemen, there aren't many shio-chashu tsukemen places. Not sure why that is, perhaps the shio broth/shiru is too salty for tsukemen when condensed down (tsukemen broths tend to...
Family Restaurant, Indian & South Asian, Italian ( Shinjuku )
I crave his lamb chops and I don't even like lamb! He made me love lamb. Love to share this place with people who love good Indian food and enjoy chatting with Mr Thapa. He's in love with food. Had th...
Alps is amazing. It's hard to find, but look for the Hotel Listo (with a water fountain) in Kabukicho, past the pretty hosts trying to lure in O.L's, and it's around back and across the street. If you...
All-you-can-eat in Tokyo usually bears a high price but this curry restaurant is different. For only 1,500 yen you can enjoy curry to you hearts content in a buffet style with 5 different kinds of cur...
Yusoshi is part of a rather large wave of cafes in Japan that cater to a female professional crowd; the surroundings are comfortable, the atmosphere is almost smoke-free, and the food tends to be mild...
We had a great dinner here recently -- we ordered cabbage salt salad and avocado kimchi which were ok but not great, and several drinks (they have a great selection of fruity options in particular), a...
Excellent fresh sushi for as low as 75yen! try the hotate and taro!
Its a real small place with standing room only... for busy people on the go. I have visited two outlets and the one i like best is ...
I didn't expect to walk away so happy from Keawjai. The mix of spicy, sour and sweet flavours that is so typical of Thai food but so sorely lacking in most Japanese renditions came out in full force a...
Literally just walked out and felt the need to recommend this place. Pretty easy to find, next to the KDX building, Japanese gyoza are their thang. Choice of fried or boiled gyoza, with a garlic or n...

I was early for 2pm check-in at Shinjuku...
“Kushiage” literally means frying on sticks. It refers to the way in which you cook prepared pieces of fish or meat, or vegetables on sticks, by dipping them in flour and batter, and finally deep...
I had been craving a juicy piece of meat for weeks now and my daydreams were answered by Arms, a small restaurant under Shinjuku station perfect for anyone needing a bite on the go. There are many bur...
This restaurant is a chain but I never would have guessed so from the outside. It serves an eclectic menu of pastas, "international" dishes such as omelette rice and desserts. It also boast...
This Italian cafe specializes in espresso. The coffee is quite good and reasonably priced. The size of the iced coffee was larger than the average one is in Japan. Not a ton of space but you should be...
I asked for spicy and got exactly what I bargained for. The spicy chicken stir fry lunch delivered for the first time in Japan enough heat to seriously challenge my tolerance for chilies.
Siam is l...
Bon is incredibly expensive, and I expected more from my cup of coffee. I had never paid 1,050 yen for a coffee before, and given that I did, I expected the brew to blow my mind. Instead, it was fairl...
