HENRY'S BURGER Daikanyama — Restaurant in Tokyo

This is supposed to be one of the best burgers in Tokyo, so when I walked by, I had to give it a try. It was definitely a good burger, but don't expect it to be Earth shattering.

The bun is great. It's super soft, so that there's no resistance as you bite, and it smooshes in your hand like a commercial potato bun. But it doesn't taste like it's made of chemicals in a factory. It tastes like real bread.

The burger itself is a wagyu smashed burger, and you can taste the quality of the beef. The tallow is plentiful and the lacy beef edges are crisp and flavorful. All surface area that came in contact with the griddle tastes like a beefy cracker. Then, it's chewy, juicy, and tender inside. Great patties. I think they'd be even better with more salt and pepper...but I'm not complaining.

I ordered a double patty with cheese, and along with their burger sauce, the cheese created a flavorful, gooey coating that dripped just enough from the sandwich. Not enough to make a mess, but enough to make me worry about making a mess.

Ultimately, it's a fast food style burger, but with way higher quality ingredients than normal. It's priced like food in the US, rather than Tokyo, so even though it's still reasonable for what you get, it felt like an especially indulgent lunch.

Bottom line: if you want a classic burger, give it a taste. It delivers. But if you're looking for one of those incredible mind-blowing Tokyo food experiences, this just...

Henry’s Burger in Daikanyama is a small but stylish burger spot that really delivers on flavor. Their wagyu smash burgers are the highlight — juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The menu is refreshingly simple: you choose between a single or double patty, and can make it a set with fries and a drink. We stopped by after visiting the Miffy Café nearby, and this made for the perfect savory follow-up. The shop is very compact with just a few counter seats, so it’s ideal for takeaway or an early dinner. That said, we managed to dine in with our kids by folding the stroller and keeping things light — the atmosphere is casual and the staff were friendly and patient, which helped a lot. Ordering was straightforward, even without English menus — we just pointed at the counter menu and held up fingers for quantity. Prices are reasonable too, with most meals coming in at around ¥1,000–2,000 per person, which is great for wagyu quality. Overall, it’s a fun little stop near Daikanyama Station — quick, satisfying, and great value if you're craving a...

Henry’s Burger is easily one of my favorite burger places in Tokyo. The shop is owned by Kentaro “Henry” Nakahara, who owns the famous Yakiniku Nakahara, a high-end yakiniku restaurant in Ichigaya, which is another one of my favorites.

The quality of the meat that is used in their burgers is really good and their special sauce that is almost like a Thousand Island dressing goes really well with them. They offer single patty burgers, double, triple, and quad. You may be tempted to just get the single if it is your first time coming here, but their standard and most popular burger is the double so I would highly recommend starting out with that one. It is also not super big so you can definitely finish it. You can get the burger as is or you can make it a combo, which comes with fries and a drink.

The burgers here may be a little pricey, but it’s definitely worth the price. It’s a small shop with only four seats at the counter and a bench though so most...
