About this spot
Tucked away on the bustling Shinjuku Kabukicho floor, Mantarou offers a classic izakaya experience where grilled chicken skewers are charred to perfection over open flames. The menu features house-made pickles and savory broth-based dishes that define this neighborhood's hearty dining culture.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the 'tsumami' (small side dishes) first to cleanse your palate before diving into the main skewer selection.
- Ask for a private booth if you want to avoid the crowds typical of Shinjuku's ground-floor bars.
- Finish your meal with a small sake cup; finishing it completely is considered polite and ensures you get another round.
