Tokyo’s Themed Dining
Guidelines for Choosing the Best Experiences
Themed dining experience are one of the things that Tokyo has no shortage of. Sadly though, the foreign media tend to only focus on a few places such as the Robot Restaurant or the Kawaii Monster Cafe (which both tragically closed during the coronavirus pandemic). When combined with Japan’s poor efforts to digitize in English, this means that the best spots are often completely unknown to visitors from abroad.
Due to the lack of available information online, it can be really hard to tell the good spots from the bad. Before we delve into the options however, it’s important to note that many themed dining experiences are NOT the best places to go for a top-notch gourmet experience. Remember, just because the presentation is superb it doesn’t necessarily mean the taste is too!
Unfortunately when it comes to themed dining, there are only a handful of locations that offer both the experience and quality food and drinks. As you might imagine, these places charge a premium and often require one to book well in advance. With this in mind, let’s take a look at some of my recommendations for themed dining that DO offer both a great meal and experience.
