Samurai Restaurant Time

Shinjuku-ku

With all the neon and flashes of light, this dance performance with dubious foundations in historical reality is outrageous in all the right ways. During breaks between acts, which can last a while, you can grab the food or the sake on offer, but you're likely better off doing so elsewhere before or after the show. Reservations can be made online or by phone.
