Robot Restaurant is a Tokyo Must Do, Tokyo, Japan
If you find yourself in Tokyo someday and only have time to do one touristy thing, I highly recommend you visit Robot Restaurant! It is the most inexplicably crazy (in a good way) performance I have ever seen. This isn’t an actual restaurant, really, as the name implies. It’s a robot show where snack food and various drinks are served.
It’s honestly a bit hard to describe it, and I don’t even think my photos do it justice. It’s a whole lot of robots, lasers, dancers, fireworks, swords, singing - you name it! You get it all with this performance!
Tickets to the show cost about $60-$70 USD, and I would recommend ordering them in advance - there wasn’t an empty seat in the house! (You can book them by clicking here.) You’ll check in just outside the restaurant when you arrive at your designated ticket check in time. And then they will escort you to a very glitzy and bizarre lounge, where you listen to a band in robot attire and wait for the show to begin. Haha.
The photos above are the entrance to the show, and there are great big creepy robots that look just like these in the show!
There are fireworks and flames, and you’re asked to not wear hats or sunglasses on your head because they could potentially get knocked off. (And if you’re sitting in the front row like we were, this was most definitely a possibility if you weren’t paying attention.) ......
