Our take

Dote no Iseya has specialised in tempura since 1889. Its tendon brings fried seafood and vegetables together over rice, while the wooden restaurant building is itself a registered cultural property. Both the meal and its setting give an eastern Tokyo walk a clear destination.

Choose your bowl from the current menu rather than arriving with a fixed combination in mind. Make space in the outing for the building as well as the food, and check the restaurant’s latest opening information before travelling.
