MEGA Don Quijote

Additionally, be prepared for the possibility that your kids might leave with more than one toy or trinket.

Samurai Restaurant Time

The iconic Robot Restaurant closed in 2020 and was replaced with the Samurai Restaurant in 2023. This Shinjuku show offers a similar over-the-top experience with energetic dancers, Ninjas, extravagant costumes, a whole lot of neon lights, and really loud music. Expect sensory overload! Note that it’s not a restaurant (skip the food), and it’s now over 18s only (due to the location not the content). It’s still one of the weirdest things to do in Tokyo (and you can combine it with other Shinjuku activities). Is it for you? Read Simon’s entertaining Robot Restaurant review to find out. Details: You can buy Samurai Restaurant tickets including two drinks on Get Your Guide for $64. Or the morning performance is a little cheaper. Performance times vary but are usually 10.40am, 1.50pm and 4.30pm. It lasts two hours. It’s a short walk from Shinjuku Station.
