Innsyoutei

Reviewed By Diane T

The restaurant serves traditional kaiseki food. Although our menu was supposed to contain meat, we managed to get a fish-only option, which was absolutely amazing! I was also told they can prepare a fully vegetarian course if booked in advance.Beautiful location and very fine dining for a great experience.

Nihonshu Genka Sakagura Ikebukuro

We serve sake at very reasonable price. In this restaurant, the price of sake is about half to one-third lower than the other restaurant in japan. Of course, there are only famous sake, no cheap kind, for example, DASSAI is treated as a kind of high grade

Ichiran Ikebukuro

Reviewed By Kathleen S

I highly recommend that any visitors to Tokyo visit an authentic ramen restaurant. They are on every block! I found this restaurant on google maps, and heard that it was a good chain, so we tried the Ikebukuro shop. All menus have English translations, from the machine where you choose and pay, to the customization menu. Our tonkatsu ramen was excellent, but what I liked the most is that you are able to customize your ramen as to seasoning, noodle firmness, broth, toppings, etc...I also like how they have single-seat booths with dividers. I found it to be so charming. I will definitely return and get a spicier version next time!

If you like Ramen you have to go there. We were there really early to get our ticket but waited around 1,5 hours to finally taste the delicious Ramen. It´s definitely worth the long waiting hours, just stay in line and keep up. You won´t regret it, I promise.

Mawashizushi Katsu Midori Ikebukuro Seibu

Reviewed By Jeremy N

The four of us ate here on a Monday night. Yes, there was a long line (but that's usually a good sign). Because of the crowd, we were asked if it was OK if we split up to get seated faster, and we agreed. Shortly after eating, however, the hostess moved us so we could be together at the bar, which was very nice. The food was excellent, and the food ordering was a lot of fun -- and the iPad ordering system had an English menu. And most surprising was when our massive stack of plates was totaled at the end, the price ended up being much less than we anticipated.

It's a cool and friendly place in a recently redeveloped block in Otsuka. Each of the restaurants in the block has a different speciality - this is horsemeat and dashi, though there are lots of other tapas-style choices (not being a horsemeat fan, I avoided it and still ate well). The food is tasty, nicely presented and there's a great choice of sake. They have a full and helpful English menu.

Tachiguimidori, Echika Ikebukuro

Reviewed By Lauren S

Places like this are exactly why I'm in Japan. Little 12 person, standing only sushi shop that is absolutely delicious and a great price. They have a laminated picture menu that non-Japanese speakers can use to point and order. You'll wait for a bit, but it's totally worth it! They also have take away sushi you can pick up on your way out of the station.

Mutekiya

Reviewed By Ethelcl

We were shopping in Ikebukuro and one of my Japanese friends recommended me this place. When we arrived we found a long queue but less than 20 min we were eating and having our ramen.On the queue they give you the menu and you order. When finally you are on the table takes around 5 min or less to get the food... And then you can enjoy that ramen that was really delicious

十条にある日本酒メインのお店。熱燗にお猪口ではなくグラスに注ぐワインバーのような雰囲気で各地の日本酒を楽しむことができます。飲み放題がかなりコスパ良さそうでしたが、三軒目ということもあり軽く一杯程度。今度はガッツリ飲んでみたいところですね。
