Robot Restaurant Tickets for the Live Neo-Futuristic Show in Shinjuku reviews, Tokyo tours & activities, fun things to do in Tokyo (With pictures only)

Tokyo isn't Tokyo without a trip to the Robot Restaurant!

Reviewed by: Farah, 2020/02/04

A lot of people dub the Robot Restaurant a 'gimmick' or 'tourist trap', but honestly to me it was everything eccentric and weird about Japan. The moment I entered the doors I felt transported into another alternative reality of robots and colours as vibrant as Skittles and Smarties. Everything from the staff to the flashing lights made the ambience feel like I stepped from Tokyo on to Mars, which is exactly why I enjoyed this show very much.
The robots, the music and dancing were all amazingly spectacular. Everyone got involved dancing a long (or in my case totally enraptured by the ridiculously extravagant dancing robots). I will be returning to Japan in June 2020 and I am planning on returning to the Robot Restaurant once again! If your someone who has read the 'gimmick' comments about Robot Restaurant and now you are in two minds, let me tell you, don't miss it! This show is gimmick-licious in the most delightful way. Make sure you book it and attend! it will be a night you never forget!

I did not eat at the restaurant, so I cant comment on the food. But I reckon that even if the food wasn't the best, you won't notice. Why? because who cares about food when there's a neon dancing giant robot in front of you? Yeah, me neither.

Suggestions for people with kids, I would suggest the earlier showings. Just because I believe the show, local area and experience during the day might be more appropriate. Furthermore, if you think your child might get scared maybe it is best to pass. It is very loud and noisy in there. I had no children with me, so I cant comment on wether they provide soundproof headphones for children.

That all being said, I highly recommend this event. Like I said, I hope to return and experience this again in June! I am very excited!

They give everyone these lightsticks for the duration of the show!
Amazing performance
Did that really happen?

Greatest Show on Earth!

Reviewed by: TravBear, 2020/01/04

Wow, I had no idea what to expect, I’d gone purely on a friend’s recommendation, and my socks were completely knocked off. I like that the pre-show has a bar and a band, that was a nice warm up for the insanity that was to come. Amazing costumes, dance numbers, pyrotechnics, edge of your seat combat, there simply aren’t adequate words to describe a spectacle like Robot Restaurant. If you’re in Shinjuku, hell anywhere in Tokyo, it’s a must see!

What an experience!

Reviewed by: Keith Stokes, 2019/11/17

This place is awesome! I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but it is a great show! The venue is not very big overall, but they pack a lot into the space. First off, if you get the chance and it's going the day of your show check out the pre-show band. It doesn't cost anything extra and it was very cool. It had everything: dancers, a singer who poured his heart into the songs, a couple of people dressed like robots. I really enjoyed the pre-show, but get there early as it fills up fast.

The main show was amazing! It had so much going on that sometimes you didn't know where you should be looking, in a good way. They let you take pics, just make sure there's no flash. There were 4 "acts" with a intermission between the first three. Apparently it usually sells out and I can totally see why. This is definitely a feast for the senses! If you're thinking about it, you should definitely get the tickets, you won't be disappointed.

Tenía más expectativas de este show de robots, no son realmente robots, son carros alegóricos manejados con control remoto, los bailes si muy divertidos pero para lo el precio que costó esperaba robots de verdad como el

Great show to start the Tokyo experience

Reviewed by: Vanessa S, 2019/03/12

Definitely a “tourist trap” but well worth it and will definitely recommend to any visitors. It was a fun experience, music and dancing was up beat and made me want to go out dancing to a club. Great to see the Japanese culture throw up on my lap; mean it in a positive manner! Loved the show.

Reviewed by: Paul_Gomez24 , 2019/02/19

Overall, This was a wonderful experience. This was my first time in Tokyo and this is a must see show. Amazing decorations inside it is an atmosphere that you cannot describe. The alcohol beverages are really good. If you have kids there is also drinks and food for them.

If you are visiting Tokyo I highly recommend you take time out of your day to watch this show.

Phenomenal show great for the whole family

Reviewed by: Nick, 2018/12/04

I absolutely loved the show, as every seat is right in top of the action and the performers use every inch of the stage. Effects were fun and the music enhanced the experience.

I would recommend eating before the show as the food options are limited and there are great food spots in the area.

Absolutely love it. Seen it 6 times and Everytime it's completely different.

Reviewed by: Talocaca, 2018/05/06

I live in Tokyo and have seen the show multiple times. Everytime the show is different and offers something new.

Buying through Veltra makes it a lot cheaper (¥6,000 instead of ¥8,000).

Great for tourists! Don't bother with the food. Watch the show and eat elsewhere in Kabukicho or walk to Korean Town ;)

Futuristic Show

Reviewed by: MCB, 2018/05/01

It was a great show and very entertaining and the price was a little cheaper compared to the actual price at the entrance so it was a bonus. However, we did not have much time to take a photo wth the performers (we were expecting 5 minutes for our group but it was actually for all of the guests in there). Overall, it was really fun and fascinating show!!!

Crazy Neat Show!

Reviewed by: Dr Krista Leicht, 2017/08/18

I went with my two teenage daughters to see the Robot Restaurant. It is an unusual experience for sure. Not really a restaurant at all. More of a show with bar and snack service. The show itself is loud, bright and has many special effects. Quite a captivating 90 min, although there were a few too many breaks/intermissions for drink sales. The building itself is quite unique, with everything, including the bathrooms, decorated in bright colours, mirrors, etc.
All in all, unforgettable, and worth doing.....once.

Awesome night

Reviewed by: Barb, 2017/04/22

This is a crazy light show/cabaret with 4 intermissions during which you can buy booze and food. It is sensory overload but a neat peek into crazy Japanese robotic/anime/cosplay culture. Don't go if you are prone to seizures (seriously). There are a lot of strobe lights, lasers, loud noises, etc. But it was a riot of randomness. We loved it.

Robo robotto

Reviewed by: Thai-san, 2017/04/12

Before i book this event, i looked around the internet to find out if it worth the price or not. Not much information come out nor pictures. So i had no idea what should i expect.
With a comical start, i thought it would be boring like this. Then the real show start with a bang.
Now looking back, the first part is my favorite, japan style show mixed with futuristic look. Show has different stories and themes. There is first big break then many small break between show, when you can buy souvenirs and later on only drinks. I gave 4 star for this event, but i would give only 6-7/10 points. It is a good show, but sometime a feel there are a lot thing to improve.

Ps: i orderd one sushi bento for 1000 yen, the taste of sushi is less or equal average. I recommend not to buy it and better get popcorn there.
