Tempura Tsunahachi

Editorial Review

The 1920s-era building housing this veteran tempura temple feels out of place in Shinjuku. Head to best seats in the house: those at the counter. Watch seasonal ingredients dipped in batter and delicately deep-fried. You'll stumble over seven other branches of this chain in the area, but the original retains all the charm.
