All Reviews of Shin-Okubo Korea Town

Besides Korean food, the side streets also hide quite a few unique cafés and international restaurants. You can shop during the day, then have dinner and take in the night views in the evening. The whole area feels lively, and it’s one of Tokyo’s most distinctive neighborhoods.

If you like Korean products, you could easily spend half a day here. There are all kinds of unique K-culture shops and Korean restaurants. If you're tired of Japanese ramen, you should try the Korean BBQ or seafood pancakes here!

Late at night, I ran into a lot of drunk people talking loudly on the street. The area doesn't feel very safe.

You can only get authentic Korean BBQ here in Shin-Okubo!

They've totally recreated all the trendy Korean accessories, food, and beauty products here. The supermarket is super cheap too. It really feels just like being in Korea! My five-day Japan-Korea trip was unforgettable.

This whole area is like a shopper's paradise! There are tons of Korean beauty products and lots of tasty, affordable Korean restaurants. For a moment, I almost felt like I was actually in Korea.
