Wicked Portuguese restaurant that is nearly impossible to get a seat in without a reservation unless you show up early or late.

Very high quality Portuguese seafood restaurant run by amazing Japanese chef.
This bbq chicken (yakitori) place is our family favorite place for chicken! Good Japanese sake (ask for anything from Niigata). It is a short taxi and even walkable if you're adventurous. It's very close by train too (Shindaita station on the Inokashira line out of Shibuya is the closest). Try everything, but especially the Yaki-onigiri (soy sauce flavor). The "sasami" or chicken finger series is an "only in Japan" experience as they serve the center pink (Not done that way in my hometown but WOW it is good).

The garlic tomato pasta is a home run. Classic chain Italian that boomed during the bubble but now is fading away. Definitely worth trying the garlic tomato spaghetti.

Sightseeing
Meiji Shrine Honden
Big famous Shinto shrine located near my house.
Controversial war shrine. Worth visiting because you can see the bad, military part of Japan (that their Prime Minister Abe just loves). They used to have videos in the back room showing Japanese villagers in Okinawa jumping off cliffs to commit suicide because the American army was about to invade. Deep stuff.

Shopping
This is like a mini Akihabara dedicated to "otaku" culture. Tons of action figures, comics, all sorts of stuff. Trust me, this is the place to buy that wacky Japanese gift for your friend back home.
