12 Tokyo Concept Cafés That Go Way Beyond Cats and Maids

"A far cry from the sunny, commercial milieu of Ginza, the Vampire Café begs customers to enter a Gothic paradise, aptly blending tourist kitsch with the decor of Dracula’s VIP room. Covered wall to wall with red velvet, and carefully decorated with a delicate touch of morbid flair, waiters take orders in snappy tuxedos and waitresses in French maid outfits glide across the red floor covered in red blood cells. From the decor to the dishes, every last detail is crafted to create a vast and eerie dining landscape. While sitting at red-covered thrones, diners can sip a dark red aperitif garnished with tiny skulls. The light from candles atop coffins flicker with a supernatural aura powerful enough to make Bram Stoker work up an appetite for more blood-soaked treats as baroque music drones through the dim restaurant. The atmosphere is enough to make patrons forget the lively world of flagship stores and luxury shopping just seven floors below them and sink in their teeth." - ATLAS_OBSCURA

Everything was so beautiful! I’ve always wanted to come here and I’m glad I did. The servers were very nice too! Their outfits are so pretty 🥺🖤. Food was good! I was worried since some reviews are mixed about the food, but I really liked it 💖🫶. We were both satisfied since it came with quite a lot of food for 2 people. Thank you for a wonderful night 🦇⚰️🖤

Great experience, great restaurant, great food. This restaurant was so amazing. The experience was so great that I wish to go back in the future. The staff was so nice, accommodating and very in character. I got to the restaurant without any reservations. It was a bit hard to find the place at first but later I found it. It was mostly a problem with the map. The staff greeted us and we were so astonished by the entrance. As soon as you walk off the elevator you are transferred to draculas layer. It was awesome. We sat down the staff gave use themed menus and explained everything so through. We ended choosing the 8 course menu and a la carte. The menu was so incredible and so tasty. The entire meal was made specifically to our liking. There was everything from fish to Wagyu and the best thing they also gave you desert. The other stuff we ordered were seafood pasta and avocado. Which was so delicious and made so perfectly balanced. For starters we ordered the spring rolls and they were good but spring rolls are mostly the same everywhere. These were nothing special but they were delicious and did not disappoint. The staff also makes a scene when they bring out your food. It was so cool. When the salad came out they made a spell and poured draculas blood over the salad . It was perfect. Everyone enjoyed it. I wil definitely come back and i definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone. It’s nice and I will also add to make yourself part of the cosplay.

Loads of fun to be had at this themed restaurant! We went for the late night afternoon tea and really enjoyed it - The dessert even comes with a ritual! The staff were brilliant and stayed in character throughout - Quick attentive service. I gave one star less for the food because the cocktails were a bit basic. Not in appearance, but in ingredients.

We really liked the environment and the service. They were really nice and fun. It's a really unique cafe, hope that in the future they add more stuff. The food is a 3/5 since is not that great for the price, nothing out of the ordinary in taste. They also have mock-tails and that's a plus for us. But it was still a fun time.

The staff was kind and some do speak English. Their service was great even on a busy night, I would recommend putting in a reservation to ensure your spot. I went in without one but they seemed to have gotten busy really fast. The food was great 6 course meal, the drinks were fun and tasty. I hope to return some day

It was an interesting experience. I would only recommend it to others for the experience. We went for the 6 course meal. It was plenty of food but we did not like the food. Service was great.

Want a unique, spooky, and entertaining date night or fun dinner out? Check this place out! This vampire cafe is exactly that - choose from one of a few set menu options (with a spooky drink or two of course) and enjoy a fantastic show of blood, gore, and fire along with your dinner. The fully dressed-up and in character staff were both super accommodating and genuinely spooky for our whole experience. For the most part, the food was really tasty, however, the chicken was very dry (likely from the fire). More water should definitely be served throughout the meal. Overall, whether as a fun tourist experience (they speak enough English for a straightforward dinner) or date night (definitely dress up yourself if you want the full effect), it’s a great time and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Reservations are recommended but not required. We walked in and were seated promptly.

My hubby took me here, following us watching a video on YouTube - before we left the US to come to Japan. The food was good - experience and overall ambience was interesting. Small tables, tucked away behind a curtain and the service was a little slow. Drinks were good. Overall we were pleased and would likely come back - and bring a friend along.

This was probably my favorite concept cafe in Japan! The service was super entertaining and quick. All of the staff were dressed like vampires, and you could tell that everyone was super into their roles and just having fun. Service at the time was in Japanese (March 18). I loved the ambience inside! The whole restaurant was decorated with gothic-inspired things, and there was a coffin in the middle of the restaurant. Although not pictured, the bathroom was filled with paintings of dead people with blood on them on every wall, which was quite creepy. This was the first concept cafe that I visited Japan, and I heard before that concept cafes usually don't have good food. I was impressed that the food actually tasted good! My favorites of the night were the RIP salad and the roast beef! I loved how each food had touches of vampire-related things. I would love to return one day!

We came for drinks and dessert. I was dead set on going here! I am a Halloween lover and I needed to experience this place. We showed up at 2200 as a walk in and were seated immediately. It was a little rushed because they close at 2300 but we were able to order the beautiful desserts and fun themed drinks and get the vampire experience. It is very expensive but I felt it was worth it.

This place certainly sounds cool; however we were sadly disappointed. Despite this experience, Japan has been amazing overall. For starters, the ambiance and decor are pretty nicely done, but if you are tall, the seats are extremely uncomfortable. The waiter didn't speak English and our Japanese sucks, so ordering was not as smooth. It's difficult pointing at a menu with such low lighting. And like other reviewers, our food arrived in an unusual manner. We wanted to start the meal with appetizers and drinks and the appetizers never came. The 4 cheese pizza was delivered first before the appetizer, and it was served with very little cheese. My wife was patiently waiting for my meal to be served. The spaghetti eventually came and it was over oily. The appetizers were last. The food was bland and the waiter was inattentive. Oh and there is a sitting fee that we didn't expect of 1,100 yen per person. It sounds like other people have had great experiences in the past, and that's a positive. We may consider giving this place another chance on our next trip, but haven't decided yet. We both felt a little nauseous after dinner, so the jury is still out‍

Lovely experience here. First off they give you a bell to 'summon' a waiter or the Count of you need something (helps with not being bugged all the time). We had all the different types of alcoholic drinks on the menu ( they used light up ice cubes, to make them look more magical and red sauce on the rim to make it look bloody, even a a tiny rose in some of them) we got the regular cheesey Marinara pasta ( it was superb! Very delicious and extremely cheesey) and the squid ink pasta ( which was out of this world delicious! Love the extra touch they added with writing 'death'. We got our picture taken and got to keep the photo for free! I even got a picture with the Count (he never takes one with people but made an exception since it was my birthday) I am excited to come back here soon.

Any place that has Halloween and dark Vampire theme all-year 'round is my kind of place! Even if the food was just OK and the drinks entertaining, and the cost was more on the expensive side (approx $109 USD for a salad, a cheese platter and 5 drinks) and we didn't get to sit in the main dining area, it was still a 5-star experience in my book as I'm a huge fan of Halloween, and I really love how the owner, Earl Rose (how he prefers to be called) takes care to attend to all the details of the dishes and drinks and puts rose petals in most of the creations, giving you a romantic, but spooky feel. The only reason we got into this place on a Saturday night without advance reservations through a website like Tabelog was because my friend lives in Japan and has a local phone number, so when she called, we were able to get four seats at around 730 PM. Unfortunately, we didn't get to sit in the "cool" main area, the larger and more grandiose and decorated area, due to our last-minute reservations on a popular, Saturday night. Our "chanting salad" in which the "blood" (Thousand Island dressing) was poured over a salad with a rose-shaped vegetable sitting in it - was pretty interesting, as we had to yell/chant loudly otherwise, as our hostess explained, our salad would "poof" disappear. I kept inquiring as to the whereabouts of Earl Rose, who finally showed up after my friend requested an eyeball cocktail - he shook the cocktail shaker aggressively in her face, but that's just part of the act. He's not supposed to be nice, you see, as he's a creature of the night and he drinks blood too. After our party paid the tab and started walking out, he calls out to me and asks me "would you like my CD?" to which I emphatically say "yes!" so he disappears for a bit. I ask my friends "what? is he going to give me a CD for free?" and my friend said "no ways, he's going to ask you to pay". Earl Rose re-appears with a Halloween CD that he's mastered (he's also an accomplished musician) and says it costs 660 Yen. My friend hands him a 1000 Yen and tells him to keep the change, to which he says "YAY!" in English and throws his hands up into the air. He bows to us as we get into the cramped elevator to take us back into the mortal streets of Ginza where the normal masses of people walked, unaware that above them, was a quiet place and haven for the undead and the semi-undead like yours truly.

The food tasted good, the ambiance was rather dark and morbid, but it is expected. The waiters were scary looking I give them credit for acting their parts. Tried to take pictures with them but they kept running away.

While we were initially very excited about this place, we left deeply disappointed. We ordered 2 sets between the 4 of us. We were there for over 2 hours and received less than half of our food before we got frustrated and left. The bill (over $200) was wildly expensive. The food we did receive, while well presented, was subpar in quality and absent of flavor. While most of our experiences in Tokyo were overwhelmingly positive, this was the single worst dining experience we have ever had period. Don't come here if you value your money and time.

We made the mistake of making a same-day reservation, so perhaps this was partially our fault, however we ended up in the back room of the cafe which seemed to have far less decor and excitement than the main room. The food and drinks were mediocre, and the waitstaff in our section didn't play into the 'vampire's aesthetic much at all. All this plus the 500 yen a piece cover charge and 60 dollar bill made for a pretty unimpressive experience.

Food (4): I had the foie gras here and some vampire theme alcoholic drink. Even though it's a theme cafe, the foie gras was surprisingly cooked well and was delicious. Service (4): It was good service. I got my food on time and left on time. They were responsive to my questions and they did not let go of their characters. Ambiance (5): From decorations, to the private velvet curtain booths, to the menu, it was completely vampire themed. Now for the more intense Vampire fans, this could come off as cheesy, but for the casuals and regulars, very nice. Even the staff gets into it. Definitely one of the best performances from the themed cafes.

This place is amazing. They stick to the theme as soon as the elevator doors are open. The service is top notch. The theatrics are top notch. They charged my phone. And brought a free dessert. The food was well above average. It was very delicious and filling. The drinks can use some help. Place is a bit pricey but totally worth it. Great spot for impromptu dates and just to have a fun evening with good food.

If you want an experience, you'll definitely get one. It's an interesting concept and the staff go all out with their costumes. The food was appealing to look at, the taste was average and it's a little over priced. The staff member we had was slow, we waited for 45 minutes for our desserts and he wasn't particularly helpful to our group. It's somewhere I can say I've been to but I wouldn't go as far as recommending to my friends. Great decoration, great costumes, average food. If you want an experience on the dark side, take a visit.

This place was really fun! The theme matched well and everyone played their role perfectly! The food was especially tasty even given their theme. It was a very fun experience and would definitely eat there again for any trips to Japan!

This place is a firm 5-stars. Vampire Cafe and Vampire Rose (your main vampire host) were the highlight of my week-long visit to Japan. The ambiance, food, and vampire staff far exceeded my expectations. My only regret was not getting a photo with Vampire Rose. Can't wait to go back!

Let's start with the positive stuff first. 1. Atmosphere is cool! 2. The presentation of the food is cool. 3. The waiters and waitresses wear cool costumes. Now for the bad stuff. Well it was actually my friend's birthday and I feel so bad for even recommending this place. 1. There is a cool area with the coffin and the vampire (Japanese only) and ugly area (Foreigners). 2. The food is not worth it. It's so expensive and the serving is so small. We ordered the course one serving is like for 4 people per plate. 3. The waiters and waitresses are so unfriendly. I asked one waiter if it's okay to take his picture. He says he's busy. Oisogashii desu. That's fine. But one waiter who was trying to flirt with the female customers was so rude!!! I was just trying to take a picture of the place because it's so cool but he said "NANDESUKA?!?! TORANAIDE!" If it's not allowed to take pictures can't be just say, "Suimasen, toranaide dame desu ga." So rude. I am posting the rude waiter picture below. 4. Our waiter who is blonde really tried so hard. He took my friend's picture and her sisters but the card says Happy Anniversary and not happy birthday. It's fine with me if you don't want foreigners around or you'll just give Japanese special treatment BUT PLEASE SAY A SIGN THAT SAYS FOREIGNERS and Japanese are in Separate areas etc...you'll be at the ugly area. I doubt an ordinary Japanese citizen would even go to this restaurant because it's weird for Japanese. Most of the people who promote your restaurants are foreigners. Please try to respect them too sorry if we are not Japanese like you! But we are human too! The waiter really destroyed my day No apologies at all I WILL NEVER EVER RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT.

Food (well, desserts) are mediocre but the ambience is neat. A small space though. Good costumes.

Booking here was a little tricky if you're an English speaker (google translate helped quite a bit), but the experience was totally worth it. The decor was also more impressive than I would have expected, with just enough cheesy-ness to be fun. The staff/actors were very into the theme and surprisingly well-costumed; a tiny bit cheesy, but just the right amount. Aside from adding to the theme, they were very accommodating and friendly to English speakers, though service was a little slow (I think that was due to an error in the kitchen, and we were enjoying the scenery anyway). The food was presented very well and tasted fine, but it was nothing special and pretty pricey. The drinks were more fun and pretty tasty, if a bit sweet. I would recommend ordering the minimum (there is an entrance-fee and minimum food and drink purchase requirement, I think one of each per person). The food's price for what you get is the only reason I didn't give the Vampire Cafe 5 stars, but if you go in understanding you're paying for the experience/ambiance, you won't be disappointed.

Honestly, this may have been the worst service I have ever received at any restaurant--and it pains me to say this, because every other place we went to in Japan was absolutely 5 stars. We were looking forward to our first themed restaurant experience. Unfortunately, the main vampire guy was awful to us. (Listen, I get the whole being in character thing, but you're supposed to play a jerk, not be a jerk.) He took our orders and then forgot all about them. He didn't listen to us when we requested appetizers and drinks, and never brought them. It took a solid 1 hour from the time we ordered to the time we got our food. From beginning to end, ordering a drink to getting the check took *3 hours.* This is unacceptable in any country, I'd think, but especially so in Japan, where almost everything is done with deep care and runs on time. The food was lukewarm and tasted like microwaved rubber. We were lucky to be there with good friends who eased the bad experience, but this has completely ruined our impression of themed cafes. One star for the decor, which was well done, and for the guy in the hood, who was kind and apologetic when we asked where our food was.
