Robot Restaurant entrance. Can you spot the humans?

Dinner in a bento box. This is the salmon option; not filling, but perfect as an appetizer for American palates.

The show begins with taiko drummers in bikinis and music that will ring in your ears for days.

A view of what the seating arrangement looks like. There are large movie screens that entertain you during intermission.

This was the tallest robot of all. Lasers and all!

During intermission you can walk onto the floor to take pictures with the robots

There are three 1-hour shows daily. So once the show is over, please leave your seats right away.

Walking around in Shinjuku we came across a moving Robot Restaurant advertisement!

Advance reservations were made for our party of eight by contacting the Robot Restaurant by phone. The published ticket price was 5,000 yen, but we took advantage of a 20% discount ticket printed in Metropolis Magazine. Note: show electronic coupon or bring original ad from magazine (copies are not acceptable).

The seats are a tight squeeze, so be sure to keep large items in lockers near the front entrance. Dinner included: bento box, salmon or chicken, green tea. Beer and Chu-hi’s are also available for around 500 yen.

Get ready for a certain kind of craziness you can only find in Japan! From Taiko drummers in bikinis, to feeling submerged underwater while face to face with a great white shark, and thrilling Robot Wars, I think it’s a must see when here (but not for small children)!
