Description:
With an improbable location on the second floor of a fashion department store just a stone's throw from Ginza 4-chome Crossing (the Harumi Dori-Chuo Dori intersection), this is a fun restaurant where you can cook your own sukiyaki or shabu-shabu in a boiling pot as you sit at a round counter or at your private table. It's also one of the few restaurants that caters to individual diners (shabu-shabu is usually shared by a group). Orders are shouted back and forth among the staff, service is rapid, and the place is lively. There's an English-language menu complete with cooking instructions, so it's user-friendly. The special shabu-shabu dinner for ¥4,147 ($34/£17), with appetizer, tomato ("super dressing") salad, beef, vegetables, noodles or rice porridge, and dessert, is enough for most voracious appetites. You'll find a branch of Shabusen in the basement of the same building (tel. 03/3572-3806).

One of my favorites in Tokyo
-
I go to this place almost everytime I'm in Tokyo. It's price is somewhat reasonable, considering that it's in the Ginza District, and the Beef Shabu Shabu is great.
