Tokyo’s Best Date Night Restaurants

Most of the time, it’s the company you’re looking for, not the location. However, getting to know another person in a romantic setting never hurts anyone, right? Whether you’re out on your own, with friends, or you just matched on an app and are looking for your next date, these restaurants promise a fun night filled with stories, laughs, and great food.

Tennozu Island TY Port

TY PortThe atmosphere makes you feel like you are in Tokyo and stepping into a romantic movie. TY Harbor is a wonderful place I visited at any time of the day, and it offers lunch and dinner service for those who are looking to escape the fast pace of Tokyo and relax by the scenic canal. While the lunch service is great, I found that TY Harbor transforms into the perfect place for a romantic evening in the evening.

If you haven’t made a reservation, I recommend arriving when the restaurant opens. Seating is first come, first served; if you arrive early, you can ask to be seated on the terrace by the canal. Watch the sun set over the tall buildings and as the air becomes crisp, keep an eye out for the red lanterns hanging on the It has escaped Boat.

TY Harbor Brewery is a great topic to start a good conversation on a first date. Here’s how to start it: Did you know that Japan banned microbreweries before 1994? TY Harbor was established A few years after the ban was lifted, the factory reopened and is currently one of only two small breweries left in Tokyo’s 23 wards.

TY Harbor’s chocolate cake is a dangerous game; not only will this cake be fascinating once you take a bite, but it’s also the ultimate test to see if your partner will tell you that you have chocolate cake stuck in your teeth. If your partner doesn’t run in the opposite direction, end this perfect evening with a walk around the area. You’ll find beautiful footbridges lit up with lights and plenty of boardwalks alongside the canal.

Yurakucho Bouvet

Drink hot tea while watching a 50s French black and white romantic movie Fried Noodles Makes me long for a real date night. While I never heard an accordion in Paris, the closest I ever came was at Refreshment Bar At Yurakucho, the sun sets and the lights above the terrace seats flicker, creating a romantic atmosphere.

A candlelight dinner – or more accurately, a candlelight dessert – is sure to impress, as Buvette’s dessert selection will make dinner the appetizer and dessert the main course. Share a plate or two of dessert with your dining companion, gaze into each other’s eyes, and whisper (of course about how delicious the dessert is). Great choices to consider are the chocolate mousse and crème brûlée, the restaurant’s most famous dishes.

For savory lovers, I recommend Buvette’s moules-frites (mussels steamed in white wine and garlic, served with fries), coq au vin (chicken stewed in red wine), bouillabaisse (seafood soup with sourdough bread), and mixed tomato salad.

Rigoletto Wine and Bar (Marunouchi)

For those who want to spend a pleasant evening with friends, this is Rigoletto Wine and Bar Located in Marunouchi. Rigoletto is a lively place that attracts crowds with its amazing terrace view and extensive wine collection (displayed in a huge floor-to-ceiling glass wine cellar). Whether you sit outside, in a booth or at the bar, your party will have a great night because Rigoletto serves sangria by the jug. I can confirm that sharing a jug of sangria is a great way to break the ice on a first date.

Is it a sin to drizzle Rigoletto’s classic mozzarella pizza with chili oil? If so, you might want to explore other options, like Rigoletto’s seafood risotto or squid ink linguine. I admit it: when we go out with the girls, we sometimes skip dinner and go straight to dessert. With options like tiramisu, passion fruit chocolate cake, and Basque burnt cheesecake, no one will leave unsatisfied and hungry.

The Seventh Tiger, Omotesando

For a more intimate dining experience, book a table at Nanadaime Tora in Omotesando. From the small traditional entrance to the narrow staircase leading to the dining area, the experience of stepping into this izakaya is unforgettable. Specializing in Japanese seafood dishes, Nanadaime Tora is a delicious dining experience not to be missed.

From the tableware to the presentation of the dishes, Nanadaime Tora is meticulously crafted to make your dining experience unforgettable. If you sit at the counter, you can sit back and watch the chefs prepare sashimi and iroyaki, where fish, meat and vegetables are skewered and grilled over charcoal.

As round after round of dishes are presented, you get to know your partner better, and when you’re at a loss for words, you can always look back to see the chefs working their magic. To impress your date, choose from seasonal vegetables, sashimi platters, tempura okra scallops, and grilled mackerel. Reservations are recommended to guarantee a seat.
