Shinjuku City, Tokyo, Japan｜Fishing Restaurant Zauo Shinjuku

We came here for the experience. We were pleasantly surprised. We came around noon, but we were told we could not fish before 1pm. We waited for an hour outside of the restaurant. We were not disappointed. It took us less than than 2 mins to catch our first sea bream. We had the sea bream deep fried with batter and fried. They were outstanding. We ended up fishing for another sea bream, and this time we intentionally targeted the biggest fish. We got it within less than 3 minutes. Our pre-teen son was so ecstatic with the experience. We also fished for the prawns and the lobster. They were delicious too! Overall, it was an awesome experience for oir family.

The experience of catching your own fish, celebrating and getting it cooked was fantastic! The staff members are really nice and helpful too. You let the staff members know how you'd like it to be cooked and then wait for it to be made. Since there was 6 of us they got some parts of the orders mixed up in terms of how we wanted certain pieces of fish to be caught and which fish belonged to who. The staff members spoke limited English but they were very patient! Some of the food took some time to be made which might be the case due to how busy the place it. I still highly recommend this restaurant though! It's located on the 1st floor of the hotel it's situated in

It was a great experience to catch your own meal. After catching the fish, we are reminded with a prayer to be grateful for the gift of nature and to appreciate her generosity. Helpful and friendly staff.
