Traveler reviews
This spot in Shinjuku is way more than just a bar—it’s straight-up entertainment, exactly the kind of experience you come to Japan for.
They’ve got food and drinks, but the real draw is how interactive everything is. You’re not just ordering a cocktail—you’re getting a full-on performance from the staff as they make it. Every drink feels like its own little show.
On top of that, there are games like “double beer drinker,” where you and a buddy drink beer while connected, and if you win, you get a drink. There’s also beer pong shooting—if you miss three shots on stage, you lose, and they buy you a drink (which you’d probably be getting anyway). If you win, you’re rewarded too. It honestly feels like you’re inside a reality show—everyone’s involved, and everyone’s part of the experience.
We went early right when it opened, and it was empty—something that usually throws people off—but the staff didn’t drop their energy for a second. They stayed professional, engaged, and committed to making the experience worth it. Once people started coming in, the whole place transformed. The crowd, the staff, the vibe—it all became one big interactive show.
The design is on point, the atmosphere is electric, and they host themed events too—cyberpunk nights, Afro nights, and more. Definitely keep an eye out for those.
I can’t recommend this place enough. If you’re in Shinjuku and want something beyond a typical night out, this is it.
Amazing way to experience the full experience of what happens in a Japanese cabaret for people who do not speak Japanese as some of the staff can speak English. A very friendly atmosphere without the smell of smoke as smoking cigarettes is not allowed in the venue. Energetic performances and funny over the top surprises every few minutes.
Very luxurious place with free entry. Great atmosphere, nice staff very friendly. Amazing shows. Spacious. Will come back again when visiting Japan again.
During my visit, I ordered a dance from Roku and was genuinely impressed. Her performance showcased an incredible level of talent and skill. I especially appreciate when pole dancing highlights athleticism and artistry, not just sex appeal, and Roku absolutely delivered. The drinks were also excellent, and she was both helpful and very kind throughout the experience. Overall, a great atmosphere and a memorable visit.
The wagyu and tendon udon was surprisingly good. The tempura was light and crispy. The decor is pretty nice, too, with a bit of a cyberpunk aesthetic.
