Teppanyaki Hama Shinjuku

This is a very good Teppanyaki restaurant where the skill of the chef is shown to you in how they cook your meal and then how all the ingredients come together. The chefs do not put on a show like other restaurants but their skill is in their cooking. It is best to make a booking for this restaurant... as it is quite popular and there are only 2 tables for groups. This restaurant is on the 7th floor so you have to go up in the lift to get there. We decided to try this Teppanyaki restaurant as it was our last night at Shinjuku and wanted something memorable and we were not disappointed. All the steaks were done just right and all dishes were very delicious. You could see and admire the chefs cooking skills and how they assembled everything . If you are ever at Shinjuku I would recommend coming to this Teppanyaki restaurant to enjoy the cooking and the atmosphere.

We selected middle priced course. Selection was good. Our biggest disappointment was that they had no Kobe beef as an option. Otherwise everything was excellent. Our chef was quite skilled. Place is not cheap. We paid $165 with two beers.

I had a fantastic solo dining experience at Hama Teppanyaki. The food was excellent, with high quality Wagyu cooked perfectly right in front of me and real attention to flavour and detail. The chefs were skilled but also genuinely friendly and welcoming, which made the atmosphere relaxed rather tha...n formal. As a solo traveller, I felt completely comfortable at the counter and actually think teppanyaki is ideal when dining alone. It is dinner and a show in one. The restaurant is in a slightly unexpected location, which adds to the charm and makes it feel like a hidden gem. Definitely worth seeking out for a memorable Tokyo meal.

Decent value, well cooked, two in my group found the food too salty. Small place, service. Good quality ingredients for the price

Amazing food. Great taste aside, I didn't expect the food items to be presented nicely on our plates as well. While generally not a big fan of Wagyu, (preferred the abalone and lobster) all the dishes were delicious, from appetizer to desert, which was also made from scratch. Highly recommended.
