Of the many Japanese traditions that make Tokyo so appealing to foodies, Izakaya takes the cake. Anthony Bourdain said so too. Each night after work, the locals here can be ducking into a nearby izakaya for drinks and food. If you’re a heavy meat eater, try exploring the all-you-can-eat options (¥4500 for 3 hours) at Tef Tef in Ebisu. The specialty here is roast beef. 150-0022 Tokyo, Shibuya City, Ebisuminami, 1 Chome−7−8, Ebisu South 1, 1F-A
