Fodor's Expert Review Sakuratei

At this do-it-yourself restaurant for okonomiyaki (a kind of savory pancake made with egg, meat, and vegetables), you choose ingredients and cook them on the teppan (grill). Okonomiyaki is generally easy to make, but flipping the pancake to cook the other side can be challenging—potentially messy but still fun. Fortunately you're not expected to wash the dishes. Okonomiyaki literally means "as you like it," and unlike most Okonomiyaki joints you can experiment with your own recipe here, if you opt for the all-you-can-eat deal. But if you're feeling uninspired, you can always default to the house special, sakurayaki (with pork, squid, and onions) or monjayaki (a watered-down Tokyo variation of okonomiyaki).
