What is the best izakaya in Kabukicho?
Nikutei Futago Shinjuku rates highest of the 25 izakaya restaurants we scored in Kabukicho, Tokyo, known for its wagyu beef cuts.
How long does a izakaya meal take?
Allow 60 to 90 minutes at most of these restaurants. This is a seated, paced meal rather than a quick stop, so book ahead and do not plan anything tight afterwards.
Are these izakaya restaurants small?
Yes, mostly. 1 of the 11 with seating data hold 20 covers or fewer, and 2 have counter seating. Expect to queue at peak times, and to be split up if you are a larger group.
