Restaurant review: Bill’s Omotesando Restaurant


This location of Bill’s Omotesando Restaurant is located in Tokyo Plaza Omotesando in the Harajuku district of Tokyo (there are several locations in Tokyo including one in Ginza). 

The restaurant has a modern yet casual theme to it. Everything is very clean, well maintained, and has a nice ascetic with the book shelves. The coolest feature is those bookshelves and rows of books that decorate the back-walls of the restaurant (makes for a great theme). With the large windows, it makes the restaurant feel very wide open and larger than it looks.

The food itself is very good, mixing traditional Japanese cuisine with western influences. If you were looking for avocado toast (because some of you are) in Tokyo, I felt this place would be the place to go. The prices were fairly reasonable considering where we were in Tokyo (Ginza) and the food quality that we ate.

I ordered an appetizer of chicken karaage which was great which included a nice dipping sauce when my friends and I stopped back in 2019. We needed a quick, causal meal while exploring and this restaurant was a great choice. I also fell in love with a house-made ginger soda that was quite tasty and refreshing, especially after making our way from Shibuya Station and exploring the area. I still wish I had ordered a few more of those or could at least find it again, but alas, I have never been able to.

The restaurant gets quite busy when we were there for lunch so just keep that in mind as you may have to wait for a table and the waiting area is very small. We ended up hanging out in the stairwell while we waited for a small table. Overall, it’s a nice restaurant and a great place to get a casual meal while exploring Tokyo.
