Steakhouse restaurants in Tokyo

  1. A

    New York Grill

    You may not be staying at the Park Hyatt, but don’t let that stop you from ascending to the 52nd floor to swoon over the stunning views of the city below. Prices may be as high as the altitude, but where else can you splurge on a romantic, sumptuous supper enhanced by sparkling night-time lights and live jazz? And in case everything looks familiar, the adjacent New York Grill & Bar was where Bill Murray drank glass upon glass of Suntory whiskey in Sofia Coppola’s Lost in Translation. Reservations are advised, especially on weekends and for brunch.

  2. B

    Sandaya Honten

    If the New York Grill is glitzy and Western, Sandaya delivers wagyū (Japanese beef) in a humbler Japanese style, though you still get both the steak and the sizzle. Slices of beef arrive on a teppan (hot steel plate) piled high with onions and other veggies that cook while your steak does. Eat it with chopsticks while a live koto or piano player entertains. Meals come with soup, salad, rice, dessert and coffee. Our only disappointment: the limited wine selection.
