We weren't sure what to expect for our first Michelin Star restaurant. My wife and I are vegan and we knew Daigo was one of the only options we would ever have. Thankfully we are big fans of Shojin Ryori, which meant we were excited. We got there about 30 minutes early and they went ahead and seated us. We had our own private room with a beautiful lit garden outside. We were treated to course after course of delicious food that ranged in texture, temperature, and flavor. It was all fantastic and was finished off with an AMAZING red bean soup. The staff were kind and helpful. They made us feel right at home. If you think you'd enjoy an experience of the world's best Shojin Ryori, then we highly recommend going!

How can I reserve restaurants in Tokyo?

You can always reserve a seat at a restaurant in Tokyo by making a direct phone call to the restaurant itself. However, as not all staff speak English, this can often be very difficult due to the language barrier. In some cases, certain restaurants will allow reservations in English via their website. Although, when this is not the case, you can make a reservation via an online platform. There are many sites which are designed to help foreigners make restaurant reservations in Tokyo and greater Japan. ByFood is one such platform where you can go to book experiences and make reservations at restaurants in Japan. The platform allows you to filter restaurants in Japan by area, food, and other preferences, making it easy to choose a restaurant and make a reservation. All you have to do is select the restaurant in Tokyo where you’d like to place a reservation and add your reservation details. ByFood will make the reservation on your behalf and send you a confirmation email. In the event that the reservation fails, you will receive a failed reservation email.

Is a reservation required for all restaurants in Tokyo?

This depends on the restaurant. Casual restaurants and chain restaurants in Tokyo generally do not require a reservation, however if you are in a big group, it can be a good idea to place a reservation ahead. Premium and high-end restaurants tend to require reservations, especially those which are popular and are all booked 2 or 3 months in advance. It is not possible to reserve at some casual restaurants like diners or some izakayas.

What is the average cost of a meal at restaurants in Tokyo?

A meal at a regular restaurant in Tokyo will generally cost somewhere between ¥1,000 and ¥3,000 for a meal, depending on the restaurant. If you’re on a budget, keep in mind that options tend to be cheaper during lunchtime. Fine dining restaurants can start at around ¥4,000 per person and even cost more than ¥20,000 per meal.

Reserve Restaurants in Tokyo

Tokyo is the city for globe-trotters looking to expand their palettes and culinary knowledge. Home to over 180 Michelin-starred restaurants, the Japanese capital is a culinary wonderland with restaurants offering every cuisine of every caliber, from street food classics in Asakusa to high-grade Edomae sushi in Ginza. Tokyo's range of restaurants is phenomenal, always offering delicious food wherever you might find yourself seated.

No matter what kind of dining experience in Tokyo you desire, traditional Japanese restaurants, some over a century old, coexist with futuristic establishments filled with robots, offering a smorgasbord of foreign and local Japanese cuisine. Enjoy grilling your own wagyu beef yakiniku style, or watch the morning's catch prepared by an expert chef at an omakase sushi restaurant. Maybe better still, slurp up hearty ramen noodles squashed elbow-to-elbow with locals somewhere downtown or at a family-run tempura restaurant with only 10 seats and an astonishing queue.

Don't let your sightseeing get in the way of good Japanese food, because whether you're exploring around Tokyo Tower or filling up on cheap thrills at Tokyo Dome, there are Tokyo eateries in every neighborhood. Traveling solo? Worry not. Tokyo has plenty of places for eating alone, too.

Not sure where to start? Experience the best of this culinary wonderland and reserve your seat in a Tokyo restaurant to guarantee yourself some of the best food in the city. Endlessly surprising and exciting, a Tokyo dining experience will satisfy every taste bud and accommodate any budget.
