Teppanyaki Fujita

Restaurant Details

Directly managed by Shinjuku Washington Hotel, the best part of Teppanyaki Fujita is that guests can sit down and watch their meal being made right in front of them. A sophisticated fixture in skyscraper-swathed West Shinjuku, the restaurant has everything needed to make dining a romantic affair, sparing no expense when it comes to premium ingredients, which are expertly slapped straight onto the flat-top grill.

To get the ball rolling, the meal might begin with an assortment of appetizers, perhaps accompanied by a spoonful of caviar, before other exquisite items that define high-end teppanyaki like abalone, spiny lobster and buttery foie gras sizzle on the grill next.

Wagyu takes center stage in Teppanyaki Fujita, and it finds itself in company alongside other exquisite items found in high-end teppanyaki dining. The coveted Japanese beef options themselves are intimidating: Yonezawa beef from Yamagata Prefecture, the prestigious Kobe beef, known for its aroma and smooth flavor, or Saga beef, known for its sweet undertone and ultra-fine marbling, or "glossy sashi."

The sumptuous sirloins and fillets at Teppanyaki Fujita are sourced from trusted suppliers and handled by chefs dedicated to preserving the beef’s melting tenderness. With expert precision, the chef works the grill elegantly, ensuring the meat’s texture remains flawless.

Though located in Tokyo’s busiest precinct, there is an intensely private and exclusive feel when diners step into the space, too. An elongated counter overlooking the illuminated courtyard extends to become the teppanyaki grill for diners to witness cooking on the front row. There is also semi-private table seating. This is the venue to spoil your date.
