The show is fun. The issue with my ticket was a clear miscommunication between the website i purchased on and the venue, taking a while to figure out if I was allowed or not for the time slot. The food I chose on the website was not available and I had to order a different one, which I was below average (Ramen). But again, the show was fun and I'd still recommend it.

The show was colorful, entertaining and totally indescribable. The performers are true entertainers who are engaging and give it their all. The staff is welcoming and attentive. The building is a trip. There's nothing else like it, so if you want to see anything you've never seen before, do this.

It's was just so camp and cheesy. You can't help but love it, and to see everyone on stage living their best lives makes it even better

The choreography the dancers the strangeness were next level it was just a really enjoyable way to spend some time in Tokyo and switch off

Visit the newly rebranded Samurai Restaurant, formerly the Robot Restaurant, and get a glimpse into Shunjuku's red-light area culture. The highlight of the experience is the Kabukicho cabaret show, blending taiko drums, glamorously dressed dancers, and fantasy creatures in a 2.5-hour narrative spectacle. Choose from a variety of meals: Sukiyaki Bento with grilled meats and veggies, an appetizer set of mixed small dishes, Sushi Bento for fresh nigiri and rolls, or comforting noodle soups like Ramen or Udon. If you don't plan on eating, get the 2-drink option to sip on some smooth sake, fancy wine, or just some good old-fashioned beer.
