The 38 Best Restaurants in Tokyo, Japan

"Open for: Lunch and dinnerPrice range: $$$There’s no shortage of soba specialists in Tokyo, but few manage to create noodles quite as flavorful and satisfying as those at Tamawarai. Each batch is made from scratch — the dough mixed, rolled, and cut by hand — and much of it with buckwheat the restaurant helps to grow. The side dishes, such as soba miso and the wonderfully creamy yuba (soy milk skin), are prepared with equal care. Know before you go: Tamawarai doesn’t accept reservations, so expect to stand in line for up to an hour." - Yukari Sakamoto
