Halal Restaurants Around Roppongi

The Roppongi halal-friendly yakiniku restaurant Sumiyakiya was founded from the owner’s desire for Muslim visitors to be able to sample Japanese grilled beef. It’s said that even important figures in the Muslim community visit this famous restaurant for its delicious halal beef, which gets its savory taste from being prepared on disposable grills. Since the store atmosphere is no different from a regular Japanese yakiniku restaurant, we recommend this place for Muslim customers who want to have a truly Japanese yakiniku experience.
Halal Restaurants Around Shinjuku

In Tokyo’s greatest shopping district, Shinjuku, restaurants serving food beloved by Muslim eaters, like ramen, as well as Turkish food, Thai food and Indian food are all clustered together. These places don’t just have halal ingredients; they also have multilingual menus, so how about spending a pleasant time with a meal in one of Shinjuku’s halal-friendly restaurants?

If you have some time to kill, it could also be fun to visit the karaoke spot Manekineko Yotsuya Yonchome. Sing with friends and family while gathered around a halal meal!
