An extremely peaceful and well-maintained shrine. Come here to get away from the hustle and bustle and appreciate some culture and religion.
Delicious, rich tskumen ramen. Got there 12.30pm on Thurs, wait was 40min but feels like it moves quickly.
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.
Head up to the 4th floor (?) to find the ¥10 Super Street Fighter 2 machines. There's only four of them so be patient!
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.
Just be prepared to tell them one or two flavors/spirits you like and prepare to be amazed. The gin and ginger combo I had was phenomenal. They also serve little snacks while you drink.
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!! 👌🏻😬
Fantastic modern-art museum. Large building that houses special exhibits and a rotating selection of its collection. If you want to get a taste of avant-garde Tokyo, this is the place for you.
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.
Cool, chill hipster grounds. Something for everyone I think; greasy food, healthy vegetarian, curries, fish, seafood.
The ramen they serve is a really rich tori paitan, or creamy chicken broth. You can get a variety of beautiful toppings. Read more.
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;)
great selection of both young and established designers from around the world 💪🏻 art work and installations too.
everything is good here. craft beer flights for ¥1000. 500 mL glasses for same price. food is delicious and reasonable— grilled fish, yakitori, beer batter karaage, etc. amazing atmosphere. so fun!
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!
Everyone who has gone to Tokyo has told me that this pizza is stellar. They are not wrong. Living in NYC we get tons of great pizza but man, this is maybe the best I've ever had. Get the Margherita.
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.
