Kagurazaka Kado
Izakaya restaurant
👍👍 土曜の夕方、ふらっと立ち飲みにふらふらと1人酒。とてもいい感じでした。個人差ありますが50代には価格的にもボリューム的にもちょうどいい。 個人的には、鯖の南蛮漬け、油揚げの南蛮ネギ味噌焼き、牛すじ煮込みは、オススメです。 店員さんの距離感もちょうどよい。 今回は立ち飲みスペースだけの利用ですが、1人でサク...

Tsurutontan Shinjuku
Udon noodle restaurant
👍👍 I was introduced to Tsurutontan by a local friend and I always patronize them each time I’m in Tokyo. Their udon in huge bowls never fails to satisfy. This time around a friend brought us here for hotpot. Having been to the Roppongi and Ginza outlets, the Shinjuku decor certainly is very different w...

Shinpachi Shokudo Shinjuku
Syokudo and Teishoku restaurant
👍👍 ["Affordable, delicious, and will not disappoint. I mixed up my order and added an extra miso soup because in the set meal I assumed it was only rice that was included lol, staff was kind enough to explain to me that the set meal already has miso soup and canceled my added order for me. I do not spe...

Sushi Oedo
Conveyor belt sushi restaurant
👍👍 An old style sushi train. Affordable and delicious. The crowd is mostly salary man in a hurry. I like how small and efficient the restaurant is run. To access here, take the East Exit of Shinjuku Station.

SHUNKA Shinjuku Higashiguchi
Izakaya restaurant
🫤 When we are halfway with our meals, a very tiny baby cockroach is crawling on the sushi plate.Unsure of where it came from, we decided to stop eating. The waiter did apologize and offer a new one but we decline. Overall the food is pretty mediocre.

GYUKATSU KYOTO KATSUGYU Shinjyuku Otakibashi-dori Store

Ippudo - Shinjuku i-Land Tower
Ramen restaurant
👍👍 Excellent ramen restaurant. Small and limited tight seating. Claustrophobic in the back. Lower level of an office building and hard to find from the street level. Enter the building and go down the escalator to find the Ippudo on the left.

Gyukatsu Aona Seibu-shinjuku-ekimae shop
Syokudo and Teishoku restaurant
👍👍 This place was surprisingly good! I got the crispy black marble Wagyu set. It was perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy warm meat on the inside. The soup that came with it was so amazing that I had to order a second one. The whole set was such a great deal! Food came fast. Enjoy it with a beer!

Dandadan Shinjuku
Izakaya restaurant
👍👍 This place has the best atmosphere, very fun and bustling. Food was crazy yummy. We got recommended the gyoza and ate 3 serves. Everything was so delicious. Great at keeping your water refilled if you spent the whole day on the Shinkansen and forgot to drink 😬👍. Good vibes and good food! Friendly...

Japanese restaurant
👍👍 We used it for business entertainment of business partners. The atmosphere of the shop was very harsh, but half of the shop was like a part-time student. I don't mean that it was bad, but there were some people who did not work. A shamisen geisha will come along the way. I guess you can get a glimp...

Kaiten Sushi Numazuko
Conveyor belt sushi restaurant
👍 Mid-level expensive compared to other conveyor belt sushi places but I think their quality of fish is expressed through the higher prices. Also, this place has chefs hand make the sushi unlike other chains where machines do it so that’s also the reason for the higher prices. This restaurant isn’t a...

Niimura Okubo
Tonkatsu restaurant
😐 ちょい飲みで入店リーズナブルな単品料理もあり使い勝手も良い、瓶ビールはキンキンに冷えており夏場は嬉しい。おろしヒレカツもポン酢であっさりとして中々よろしかったです。外国人アルバイトスタッフはほとんど声も出さずの笑顔なしの接客でちょっと残念かな。

After all, the style of having...

Nakau - Shinjuku Shokuan-dori Avenue
Japanese restaurant
👍👍 Nakau is a great spot!! Cheap and quick. They are open 24 hours so if you’re coming back late or maybe you want karaage at 3am, they’ll be open and ready for you! Quality food for an unbeatable price.
