Pizza is very good!!!
The problem is that the owner is so strict about his staff. Sometimes, it affects how customers feel...

I found this Omoide Yokocho chance when I was researching places to visit and I'm happy I did. It's literally alley with small bars, restaurants where you can eat and drink at a relatively cheap price. The ambiance as you enter the alley definitely says adventure. If you like to eat and drink, you'll enjoy your experience. I found the staff of numerous restaurant to be warm and entertaining. I only discovered there was an English menu available after I ordered my meal. Ask for an English menu at the restaurant you choose as they may have one. If they don't, live a little and be adventurous. Pick a restaurant, have a beer or three and order some finger food. If you're in Tokyo, you must go!

Drinks & Nightlife
The best time to go to Kabukicho would be at night, the nightlife had some crazy vibes as all the lights lit up and convenient areas to drink at bars. There's so much action all the time! They say New York's the city that never sleeps, but this place sleeps way less than the big apple!

Sightseeing
The Yamanote line takes you to Harajuku station from Shinjuku and the entrance to the shrine is just behind the station. The loveliest part is the long stroll through beautifully kept grounds, as the tall trees have formed green arches over the paths. The Japanese cicadas are deafening and make a fascinating sound! The shrine itself cannot be entered, but the stroll around pristine gardens is the true highlight.

If you leave the park through the Shinjuku gate and follow the curving road for one block, you will see a Doutor coffee shop and Starbucks on your left. Turn left and you will be on Yasukuni Street. Cross it, and pretty soon you will see the gates leading to Hanazono Shrine on the right.

This is not a restaurant, it's a show. And a great only-in-tokyo show at that. The robots dance, battle, and entertain you the whole time. It's a Tokyo spectacle that can't be missed.
