Don’t let the appearance of Robata scare you. It might be a little small, but it makes up for it in a big way with the food. And no need to order. Just say how much you want to spend and they'll take care of the rest.

When the ingredients of a dish are each hand selected by the chef, you know it's going to be good.

2,700 square feet filled with outlets selling gourmet ingredients including spices, salts and vinegars. A food lover's paradise.

The design of the hotel hints at traditional Japanese design. Located across the street from the Imperial Palace, the hotel has fantastic views of the city.

The chefs at Raku-tei take their food seriously, which leads to some pretty serious tempura.

One of the famous sightseeing spots in Tokyo

On the day you hit Tokyo stay up all night and hit the Tsukiji when it opens, very early. Have breakfast at a neighborhood food stall. Then hit the hay--good way to deal with the time change..

I could people watch all morning at Tsukiji, world's largest fish market. The diversity of offerings can delight any seafood lover's cravings. Go early to watch the auctions. You won't believe the prices some of these fish garner.

The rooms are extremely simplistic with all the amenities you would like in a hotel room. The location of the hotel makes getting around the city easy.

I heard this is the best sushi place in Tokyo

I LOVE SUSHI....ASIAN FOOD ......LOVE IT............JAPANESE IS MY FAVORITE THOUGH!!!.......;0

Sushi Mizutani is hidden in the basement of an office building. It's hard to find and even harder to get a table. Take it from me though, the search is worth it.

The suites in this hotel have huge windows over looking the Tokyo skyline. A great place to stay and take in the city.

Ramen that is handcrafted with local ingredients. Dorm food doesn't even come close.

Sushi-Dai is the best sushi place in Tsukiji

Sushi-Dai, located in the Tsukiji Market, is one of the top sushi restaurants in the world. The wait is long, but it is worth it.

If Sushi Dai's line overwhelms you, you really can't go wrong with any small sushi spot in Tsukiji. And if you want a real adventure, play stupid tourist and walk through the restricted areas of the market until a policeman kindly escorts you out.

This restaurant is so fun. The wait staff are always in a good mood and you can't help but enjoy the restaurant's sound track.

Named after Weather Report's jazz-fusion song "Birdland," the restaurant plays plenty of jazzy tunes. Sit down, grab a perfectly grilled skewer and enjoy the dulcet tones.

One of most well-known noodle shops in Tokyo. The dishes are so good, there is almost always a line.

This Four Seasons is located so close to the action, but still feels like a retreat.

Grab a seat at the counter and watch the chef prepare your meal. Dinner and a show all in one.

Such a fun place for a dinner. Sit around the U-shaped counter and watch as a team of chefs put together your meal robatayaki style.

Personalize your shabu-shabu by choosing your soups and ingredients. I like mine spicy with the "hinabe dashi" soup.

World-renowned sushi chef Nobu Matsuhisa serves up incrediable sushi at this lively sushi bar. The ingredients are bought daily at the local Tsukiji Market.

Nice. Thanks, Ari! :)

Really excellent meal

A seafood lover's paradise. Try the 20 lb. oven-roasted tuna head cooked and served whole.

In this restaurant you order a Japanese set meal and grill it over one of five hibachi grills. If you are concerned you won't do it right, no worries, there is always someone ready to help.

Try the handmade soba noodles.

Not a typical noodle shop. Nagi has a wait staff waiting to take your order. Tell them how you would like your noodles and enjoy.

I loved the chankonabe, a traditional stew made with fried fried tofu, mushrooms, cabbage, and spring onions. It is rich in fiber and protein and a favorite dish of sumo wrestlers.
