Having so many choices is great for catering to different budgets, but for those visiting a particular izakaya for the first time, there may be some concern about how much the final bill will be. To alleviate this worry, we now offer an all-inclusive package at ¥18,000 per person, which covers both food and drink.

Experience Kagurazaka’s Best Izakayas with Our All-Inclusive Plan, Plus Engaging Conversations with Local Guides


With this plan, you can order up to six drinks and six food items, each priced at up to ¥1,000. Additionally, an English-speaking guide will accompany you throughout the experience.

For example, if a drink at a bar costs ¥1,500, it will cover up to four drinks. Any amount exceeding the limit will be charged separately. Moreover, while enjoying your meal, you can also learn about Japanese culture and daily life through conversations with your guide.

Kagurazaka's Culinary Secrets: A Gourmet Hub Hidden from the Tourist Trail


As the photos attached to this blog show, the food at Kagurazaka’s izakayas is exceptional, attracting food lovers from all over Tokyo. However, despite being a gourmet destination, Kagurazaka is not well-known among foreign tourists, meaning that the izakayas are typically filled with locals.

Why Kagurazaka Tops Tokyo's Gourmet Scene, Yet Remains a Secret to Foreign Visitors


According to a survey by the Japan Tourism Agency, the number one reason foreign visitors come to Japan is to enjoy Japanese cuisine, and this holds true every year. This shows that foreign travelers are constantly on the lookout for delicious meals.

Kagurazaka has the highest percentage of Michelin Guide-listed restaurants among Tabelog (One of Japan's largest gourmet review websites) entries in Tokyo, at 2.0%, compared to Ginza’s 1.4%. The Tokyo average is 0.4%, making it clear that Kagurazaka is one of Tokyo’s top gourmet areas. It’s truly a shame that such a gourmet destination remains relatively unknown to foreign tourists.
