Hokkaido Shiodome — Restaurant in Tokyo

For our last dinner in Japan, we stayed close to our hotel and went to an izakaya in the Shiodome.

Hokkaido Shiodome 北の味紀行と地酒 北海道 汐留店 is located on the 46th floor and has stunning views of the city. While we were a party of four, we were seated facing the window so we all had views of the city.

Ordering is via tablet (which is only in Japanese but they do have some English menus). We opted for the cucumber with kelp and bonito flakes, deep fried sweet shrimp, 7 types of sashimi, chicken meatball skewers, assorted tempura, cream crab croquettes, and chicken and leek skewers (9790 yen).

While I didn't find the deep fried sweet shrimp to be the best dish, I liked pretty much everything else. The sashimi was all fresh and I liked the huge shrimp, the salmon, tuna, hamachi, scallop, ikura, and octopus.

Both skewers were quite tasty and I liked the mushroom, prawns, onion, squash, and potato tempura. In fact, I think the chicken and leek skewer was my fav dish here.

The cream crab croquette was super creamy.

Best seats are the counter one, but are limited to two people, if you have a larger group you can seat in the central area or be separated (you can still view from the central area), they also have private room that need to be reserved. Accessing the restaurant is a bit tricky as you need to find the elevators that goes to 46F from...

Kids friendly! And also the view is very nice, however service was ok.

The food was excellent except for the Uni, there is a bit of an iron taste, indicative that its not a high grade uni. And maybe already a couple of days old.

But the shrimp, the crab, the scallops, the ikura, shirako are all excellent!! And the price is not too expensive for...
