[2025 Tokyo Attraction] Travel Guide for Azabujuban Shotengai (Updated May)

When you are tired of Japanese food in Japan and miss the dishes from your hometown, Ippei Restaurant is the best place for you! With the strong recommendation of Hong Kong residents in Japan, we made a last-minute reservation at Omakase, a Cantonese restaurant located in the quiet residential area of ​​Azabu Juban. I didn’t have high expectations for Cantonese cuisine prepared by a Japanese chef who trained in Hong Kong for many years, but the dishes in the first half of the course were already mouth-watering! Fried abalone with coconut milk: soft boiled abalone and egg white coconut milk, with distinct layers and delicate taste. The chef fully understands that temperature and aroma are particularly important in providing delicious Cantonese cuisine, and he keeps the food in a wok-cooked state when serving it to customers. Oysters from Ibaraki Prefecture: Cooking Japanese oysters using the same method as typhoon-fried crab is fun and surprisingly tasty The Buddha Jumps Over the Wall dumplings in soup are made with the most delicious and fresh ingredients, including high-quality chicken and Jinhua ham. But at the same time, there is not too much seasoning added, very natural taste, very good! I didn’t expect to be able to eat juicy roasted pigeon in Tokyo. It’s so delicious. The last dessert, the almond tofu, was so soft and tender, it was amazing 🍮 The restaurant is about a 6-minute walk from Azabu-Juban Station. Remember that the restaurant is usually closed on Sundays, so remember to make a reservation. Average cost per person: ¥20,000 to ¥29,999 Will definitely visit this store again🙋‍♀️ 📍Yiping Hotel 3-12-41 Motoazabu, Minato-ku, Tokyo #JapaneseFood #OverseasTravel #Tokyo

○Address: 2-23-12 Higashi-Azabu, Minato-ku, Tokyo ○Access: ①3 minutes walk from Exit 6 of Azabu-Juban Station on the Tokyo Metro Namboku Line (I ended up leaving from Exit 3, but it was less than a 10-minute walk!) ②5 minutes walk from Akabanebashi Station on the Toei Subway Oedo Line ○Business hours: [Monday-Saturday, public holidays, and the day before public holidays] 11:30-15:00 , 17:30-23:00 ↑Please note that they have separate lunch and dinner sections! ↑They are basically closed on Sundays~ ○Atmosphere: The exterior and interior are stylish, and you can enjoy your meal inside or on the terrace! I ate on the terrace, and the inside of the restaurant had an exotic feel 😌🤍 ○Weekday crowds: I went on a weekday (Tuesday) after 11:30, but it was already almost full! Advance reservations are required even on weekdays! Some customers left without being able to enter...😂 ○Budget: 1,500 yen and up By the way, what I ate was... ・Daily lunch set (Beefsteak: Greek-style hamburger steak) ・Moussaka (a version of lasagna that doesn't use flat pasta) ・Greek yogurt with honey The total was 3,300 yen~ Each dish was very voluminous, so this amount is quite hard for one person, but I'm a big eater 😋🤍 It was my first time eating Greek food, but sour? If you like refreshing flavors, you'll definitely be hooked! (The rice that came with the beefsteak had lemon fruit in it and it was delicious 🍋) The moussaka contains cinnamon, but even I, who doesn't like cinnamon, enjoyed it! It may not be good for people who can't stand it... The Greek yogurt has a consistent chewy and rich texture that is irresistible!! ! Eat Greek food and feel like you've traveled to Greece!! ! #QuintessaCampaign #trip2022 #Tokyo #Gourmet #Greek cuisine

The season for Somei-Yoshino cherry blossoms has arrived in Tokyo. The beautiful yet fleeting pale pink petals are blooming here and there.

This was my 10th time in Tokyo, so I’d consider myself a somewhat advanced traveler. Whether it’s your first visit or your tenth, Tokyo always has something new to offer. But to make the most of your trip, here are some practical tips and recommendations to avoid common tourist pitfalls: Must-Do Essentials 1. Download Arlo (roaming app) – Affordable and easy for data usage. You’ll need Google Maps for everything, so make sure you have a reliable connection. 2. Get a Suica card on your phone – Super convenient for all public transportation and even cashless payments at vending machines and convenience stores. 3. Bring cash! – Japan is still a cash-heavy society. ATMs that accept foreign cards aren’t always easy to find, so be prepared. Also, get a coin purse—you’ll need it. 4. Book museums and restaurants in advance – Many places require reservations, and if you don’t plan ahead, you could end up waiting for hours. Avoid the Overhyped Tourist Traps • Ichiran Ramen – Overpriced and not worth the hours-long wait. There are far better ramen spots in the city. • Akihabara – If you’re expecting the old-school Tokyo tech and otaku charm, you’ll be disappointed. It’s now mostly maid cafés and has lost its unique variety. Better Alternatives & Hidden Gems • Azabu-Juban & Azabudai Hills – One of the most luxurious areas in Tokyo right now. If you want to see the city’s high-end side, this is the place. • Nakameguro for coffee – A perfect spot for a laid-back café experience, especially along the river. • Minimise the typical tourist spots – If you must see them, fit them into a single day trip and get them out of the way. Final Thought Even after visiting Tokyo ten times, I find the city always offers something new. But for me, traveling is about who you spend your time with—that’s what makes the trip truly special. #travel #tokyo #japan

While searching for a lunch spot in Azabu-Juban, we passed by a multi-story building and noticed a signboard for an ox tongue specialty restaurant. I wanted to check its ratings first, but couldn't find it on Google Maps. Seeing that it had an award-winning ox tongue on its advertisement, we decided to give it a try. Our group of five ordered five different sets from the menu. We were so grateful for this serendipitous discovery. The ox tongue here, whether grilled or served as a rice bowl, was of exceptional quality, incredibly tender, and juicy. It's a taste that lingers in your memory. Actually, this restaurant has many branches in Japan, but in Tokyo, there's only one in Azabu-Juban. The others are not in major cities. 🕰️Business Hours: 11am-3pm, 5pm-10pm (opens at 10:45am on weekends) 💰Average Cost: 3400 yen

#FuriTabi I visited Azabujuban in Tokyo. There are many restaurants in Tokyo!

We recommend the gentle hot pot soup and clear udon noodles.

This is a duck meat specialty restaurant in Azabu-Juban. You can enjoy duck meat in a variety of ways, such as shabu-shabu and sukiyaki. This time I went for the sukiyaki course. The portions aren't that large, but you can order a la carte, so that's not a problem. This is a very attractive restaurant, as you can eat this kind of food for less than 10,000 yen per person.
