21/10/2025 Went here, friend reserved the restaurant. Private room perfect. The staff were really friendly and helped carry the baby carrier upstairs for her. We picked some really good options on my friends recommendation and had a good time. Food was delicious, staff were wearing tradition clothing snd very attentive. We had a private room and button to call them and they would often come in to check if if everything is ok. Perfect for gatherings. Food very fresh as well.

One of our favorite meals in Tokyo. If you love crab you will love it hear. I had never had crab sashimi and really enjoyed it. Everything was very fresh with no shellfish odor at all.

Crabs is one of my favorite food on earth coming from a seaside province in an archipelago. So anytime we go to Japan Kani Duraku is a must for me! Seriously I was in heaven! My favorite dish is the snow crab grilled in butter. If I could only eat one dish here it's that with white rice. But everything else we ordered was yummy too. That crab tempura! The best thing about eating crabs here is that its EFFORTLESS. There is no cracking shells nor the struggle & mess associated with it. The shells are expertly sliced open for you and all you need to do is scoop it out with the wooden scoop they provide. I wish all crab restaurants did this! We went early so it wasn't crowded yet but reservations recommended. You can reserve online.

Food was well presented and tasty, but found the portion slightly small considering the price paid. The flower crab was more flavourful than the king crab, despite its smaller size. Sushi was enjoyable as well. Can consider visiting for ambience and presentation.
