About this experience

Enjoy a Japanese neo-entertainment show in the middle of Shinjuku!
The show is sure to “crazy,” “wacky,” and “mind-blowing” as you enjoy traditional Japanese culture, modern entertainment, and an inexpressible moment.
You may even be able to feel Japan in this quirky space that is disconnected from the splendor of Japanese history and culture.
It is worth a visit, and you will not understand its value until you have visited it once!
We hope you will immerse yourself in the world of the Samurai Restaurant!
