[Barbacoa Takanawa ](https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=e677e56a37b07b31&hl=en&gl=au&output=search&kgmid=%2Fg%2F1tfrb4zz&q=Barbacoa%20Takanawa&shndl=30&source=sh%2Fx%2Floc%2Fact%2Fm4%2F2#vhid=/g/1tfrb4zz&vssid=dcptpi)
There are multiple branches, but this is the only location I’ve been to (twice). Excellent churrasco and a fantastic variety at the salad bar. I really love the ambience at this restaurant as well with the trees and greenery combined with the dim lighting.
Super close to Shinagawa station so easy to walk to, and a relatively good price for high quality all you can eat meat, and nice cocktails included in the all you can drink option as well.
If we’re talking high-end, Maz is absolutely fantastic. Peruvian cuisine with Japanese influences, owned by the same chef from Central in Lima, and well worth the hype. Food, atmosphere & service are all spot on.
Been to a lot of high-end Michelin Star restaurants in Tokyo but this is my favourite.
I’ve never had a sit-down meal, but I’ve picked up empanadas at [Koky’s](https://www.kokysrestaurant.com/) (Peruvian) a few times as they’re quite good for the price.
Not a restaurant, but I just recently found out about [Mahaloh Import Store](https://maps.app.goo.gl/16VS8Zwhry9kLFXG9), also in Tsurumi, that I need to check out. Looks like the carry picanha.
