"This place has great soy sauce! I recommend the special chicken white soup soy sauce soba! I visited the popular ramen shop "Kagari" in Ginza. I went there on a weekday evening around 7 pm, but there was already a line, with about 8 people waiting in front of me. There were many foreign tourists, and the signs at the front of the store were in Engl"

"**bills Ginza** I had a delightful breakfast at bills, a popular cafe in Ginza. The cafe has a bright and stylish atmosphere, perfect for relaxing. I ordered a smoothie, pancakes, and avocado and scrambled egg toast. The smoothie was packed with fresh fruit and had a refreshing taste. The pancakes were fluffy, slightly sweet, and a good size, ma"

"I visited during the weekday lunch hour. The restaurant was almost full, but I was able to get a table right away. They only accept cash and you pay after you eat. You order verbally before sitting down. I ordered the Taarotan Tan Tan Men, Chiisui Ryamen, and Shumai. Rice came free. The Taarotan Tan Tan Men came out first, and it wasn't as red as I"

"A weekday dinner at a restaurant I was taken to by a business associate. I couldn't take pictures, but the private room had a beautiful Kabuki kumadori (makeup) decoration, creating a wonderful atmosphere. I heard that if you don't have a reservation, you might have to wait in line just to get in. The food was ordered as a course. The appetizer was"

"Is the curry better than before? I recently ordered the half-Yomoda curry and half-tanuki soba set, and I think the curry has gotten better than it was a few years ago. I was so tempted to order the half-curry set instead, I wanted to eat more. It has a strong sourness and a sweetness that makes it delicious. It's listed as a specialty of the house"

"Experience the renowned Inaniwa udon of Akita, now in Tokyo! The udon noodles are delightfully smooth and chewy, with a satisfyingly firm texture. The generous portions even offer refills for an additional charge, ensuring complete satisfaction. This time, I enjoyed the tempura donburi set, where the tempura was crispy and delicious. The sauce was"

"A restaurant holding a significant position among Ginza's Western-style eateries, where you can savor history, the "original," and the "birth of Meiji." It's a place worth visiting at least once for the sake of experience. I visited "Renga-tei" in Ginza for a business meeting. It became a hot topic last March when Prime Minister Kishida and Pre"

"**A Creative, Cool, and Delicious Restaurant: A Triple Threat** I recently visited Tokyu Plaza Ginza, and while many tenants have closed down, leaving the developer in a difficult situation, Apollo and Tsurutontan remain incredibly popular. Apollo, a Japanese branch of a restaurant founded by a Greek-Australian in Sydney, was fully booked with re"

"Located right in front of Taimei Elementary School is "AUX BACCHANALES," a stylish French cafe that evokes the iconic work of Vincent van Gogh, "The Night Cafe." As a result, the terrace seating is more popular than the indoor seating. The food and atmosphere are very photogenic and lovely, but the prices are a bit high, and I felt that the staff "

"Absolutely satisfied for only ¥600!! The seaweed and sesame soba noodles for weekday lunch are exquisite!! Even the regular size is like a large serving at other soba noodle shops! And the noodles are surprisingly thick and chewy!! Plus, the dipping broth has chili oil, adding a spicy kick and aroma. ^_^ There's also a lunch-only chicken tempura "

"A luxurious lunch of cold noodles and grilled meat at Pyeon Pyeon Sa, located in a prime spot in Ginza! The view from our semi-private room was breathtaking. The meat melted in my mouth, and the salad was far from basic, with flavors that really penetrated. Their cold noodles are popular and are occasionally sold at Ikarisuper. I was disappointed w"

"The enticing aroma drew us in, making us the second group in line. Apparently, they have a limited-edition premium burger, only 30 servings available. We checked the menu before opening, but it still took about 20 minutes for the food to arrive. I came with my child, but the restaurant is not very spacious and wouldn't be suitable for families with"

"I made a reservation for 12:00 PM on a weekday and visited. There are two frying stations, and luckily, I was seated at the one manned by the owner, Mr. Kondo. The tempura included the head of a shrimp, two kuruma prawns, thick Australian asparagus, crunchy lotus root from Ibaraki Prefecture, bell peppers from a contracted farm that can be eaten wh"

"I visited without a reservation on a weekend. There was a reservation from 12:00 pm, and I was able to enter before that time. **What I liked:** * I ordered the tempura set (around ¥1,600), and the freshly fried tempura was served continuously, which was great. My stomach didn't feel heavy either. **What I noticed:** * The restaurant is quite na"

"I visited for the first time, and everything was perfect. The food, the atmosphere, everything was top-notch. The service is arguably the best in Japan. The homemade ginger ale was incredibly delicious. It had a refreshing sweetness and a lovely aroma that lingered in the nose. It was so easy to drink and paired well with the food. I enjoyed a "

"Tabelog Rating: 3.63 Located in the basement of a prime location in Ginza's Sukiyabashi district, this ramen shop offers a wallet-friendly soy sauce ramen for ¥830. The soup has a unique flavor I've never tasted before. While there's a hint of MSG, the animal-based broth is delicious. The noodles are made with a high water content. This is a perfe"

"When it comes to renowned yakiniku groups, "Ushitoro" is a name that needs no introduction. It's a super famous yakiniku restaurant that any Tokyo yakiniku lover has heard of at least once. I've been to many Ushitoro group restaurants before, but I had never been to the Ginza Namiki-dori branch. This time, I got to know another side of Ushitoro, an"

"I went for lunch with 3 local friends! (*´∇｀*) Esquisse, a favorite of beautiful, gourmet, and heavy-drinking friends! Lunch is more affordable and casual than dinner, so it's recommended! This was my first time visiting, so I left the reservation and course selection to them! Thank you╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ When I arrived at the reservation time, the"

"I'm so glad to find such a wonderful French restaurant in an old building in Ginza! I had lunch there. Each dish was carefully prepared and the taste was good. The restaurant isn't very big, but it was very relaxing. The price of the glass of wine was reasonable, which is great for wine lovers. The chef saw us out, but he was so young that I was a "
