【2026】Shimokitazawa Teishoku Guide｜8 Places We Actually Visited
Here is a guide to places in Shimokitazawa, Tokyo, where we have personally eaten teishoku (Japanese set meals).
Teishoku usually consists of a main dish served with rice, soup, and one or more side dishes. This list includes not only traditional set-meal restaurants, but also izakaya and other restaurants that offered set meals when we visited.
This is not a ranking. The restaurants are listed in the order we visited them.
As of 2026, we have confirmed eight of these restaurants are still operating. Two restaurants we previously included have since closed, so they are listed separately at the end of this guide.
