12 Best Burgers in Tokyo

Food & Drinks in Tokyo

Tokyo is truly one of the best cities in the world when it comes to food. There are not only many Michelin-starred restaurants in this food paradise, but you can also get authentic food at izakaya, eat at delicious sushi restaurants of all price-levels, and if you want a fix of great bread for breakfast or lunch there are many bakeries that are said to rival those in Europe. But where should you go if you’re in Japan’s capital and you want a scrumptious burger? Well you’ve come to the right place. We’ve got you covered with 12 of the best burgers in Tokyo! 

1. Burger Revolution Tokyo

If you are looking for a mouth watering kobe beef wagyu burger in Roppongi, Burger Revolution Tokyo is the place to go. They are a thriving burger joint with people from all over stopping by to try their delicious patties. They have English speaking staff, as well as WiFi for those who are traveling in Tokyo and maybe don’t speak much Japanese. They offer their customers beef patties made from 100% Kuroge wagyu and Kobe beef. Just like Wagyu to Worldwide, they also use fresh baked buns from La Baguette every day, as well as 100% milk and a secret sauce in their patties prepared by a chef who worked at a Michelin star restaurant for 3 years.

It is very conveniently located as it is only a 3 minute walk from Roppongi Crossing, and they also offer take out and delivery for those who aren’t planning on dining in. In addition to their delicious burgers, they also have a wide selection of drinks that include but aren’t limited to Japanese whiskey and gin.

2. Jack 37 Burger

In the Nihonbashi area, you can find Jack 37 Burger, a small burger joint that is beloved by all the locals. The reason that everyone loves this place is that they cook their burgers just the way they should be cooked; with juicy meat, fresh veggies, along with crispy thinly sliced fries. And if you like avocado on your burger, you will love how much you get, all of it of a perfect ripeness of course. As it is a fairly small restaurant, we suggest you get your food to go and enjoy eating it in the nearby Jisshi Park.

3. Wagyu to Worldwide

Wagyu to Worldwide in Kachidoki specializes in wagyu patties that are made with 100% Kuroge Wagyu and Matsusaka beef. They take pride in their delicious patties that are procured through their very own channels, and their buns are even baked fresh every morning at La Baguette! The rich flavor and aroma of the 100% cow’s milk, along with the chef’s secret sauce(who trained at a Michelin star restaurant for 3 years) enhances the taste of the Japanese black beef and Matsusaka beef. They don’t use any chemical seasonings or additives, making for a natural delicious meal.

Wagyu to Worldwide offers both take out and delivery, and they have English speaking staff and WiFi to make your experience all the better and make you feel at ease. They also have a wide variety of delicious drinks to go along with your meal such as Japanese whiskey and gin.

With all burgers hand made, you can be sure that your food is going to be fresh and delicious. There is a vast menu with various burgers and toppings, so your favorite variety is bound to be available. It is good to note that because Brozers is very popular, there is sometimes a line during popular dining hours, so it is a good idea to try and go a bit earlier or later if you want to avoid the wait.

Daikanyama is a very nice area to stroll around in the afternoon, and when you get hungry, Henry’s Burger Daikanyama is a perfect place to stop by to appease your appetite. It is a tiny restaurant and the servings are not all that big, but the taste and quality definitely make up for the lack in size. The wagyu beef is juicy and full of flavor, and the bun is soft and freshly toasted, so if you’re going for quality over quantity, this is the place to go!
