Tsukiji Sandai 築地三代@Tokyo Shinjuku ★★★

Literally Oyster Bar. Only serves oyster and alcohol. Not a dinner place because they only serve oysters. I asked them for their recommendation. Fast-paced. Walk-in only.

Kameya かめや 新宿西口思い出横丁店@Tokyo Shinjuku ★★★

Delicious Soba for only 530 yen. Light meal. Not much service. Food was served immediately and super fast-paced. Uncomfortable & tight seating. Wait on the side, order and pay right away, then eat quickly, and leave quickly. Located inside the narrow Omoide Yokocho in Shinjuku with lots of tourist traffic.

Ten-Tama Soba 530 yen (#1 recommended)
soba topped w/ vegetable tempura & half-boiled egg

So good

4 items on menu

Self-served water on the side
