Life in Tokyo is not getting any cheaper, but this fantastic city’s appetite for great-tasting food is getting bigger and bigger. The people of Tokyo, probably due to their busy lifestyles, love to eat out – and that has gone a long way to make it one of the best places in the world for quality food at low prices. Below you’ll find a few of the best places to eat in Tokyo.
Afuri
If you love noodles and happen to be visiting Tokyo, then you really must head to Afuri. Located by the Shibuya River (just a short walk from Ebisu Station), this fantastic restaurant is packed with noodle lovers around the clock. It serves so many different types of noodles that you simply won’t know where to begin, but you should start with the ramen. A meal for two costs around 2,000 yen.
Devadeva Café and Malins
If you are a vegetarian or vegan there are still plenty of great places to eat in Tokyo, and Devadeva Café is probably one of the best. We recommend you try the Yogi burger or soya bean “chicken” nuggets. Inokashira Park is within walking distance, so after you have filled your belly with great food, you can walk it off in this beautiful park. Most dishes cost around 1,000 yen.
If you are in Tokyo but feel like a plate of quality fish and chips, then you should definitely head on over to Malins. This restaurant, claiming to be the country’s first authentic fish and chip shop, uses fresh Japanese cod and a secret batter mix to create a dish that is out of this world. Don’t forget to ask for some delicious mushy peas!
