Nestled in the bustling Shibuya district, Zauo Shibuya transforms dining into an adventure. Guests receive fishing rods and bait to catch fish from expansive live tanks stocked with sea bream, flounder, horse mackerel, and more. Once caught, staff celebrate with chants and photos before preparing the fish in your chosen style—sashimi, salt-grilled, deep-fried, or simmered—all complimentary for basic methods, with sushi available for an extra fee. This hands-on approach ensures ultra-fresh seafood in a lively, boat-themed interior.

Culinary Offerings and Courses

Beyond fishing, Zauo boasts an extensive menu of Japanese dishes including sashimi assortments, tempura, hot pots, and regional specialties like squid shumai and isomen noodles. Party courses cater to groups up to 100, featuring fishing tickets, appetizers, lobster, shabu-shabu, and all-you-can-drink options. Kids enjoy sushi-making classes and boat-shaped kids' meals. Vegetarian options and non-fishing dishes ensure accessibility for all.
