  5. ✦ On the radar

    Roppongi · izakaya

    Umezu

    美味ぇ津゛

    Umezu is a compact Shinbashi izakaya near the station's Karasumori exit. Weeknights only, U-shape counter seating (13 seats), a three-time Tabelog Hyakumeiten (Top 100 izakaya East Japan) selection. Reservations recommended.

    ⚠️ Tabelog dinner budget is ¥8,000–¥9,999 with a ¥1,750+ otoshi/service charge; this is a mid-range destination izakaya, not a cheap eat. Reservation strongly recommended due to high demand.
