Nakameguro KIJIMA is a Japanese izakaya on the third floor of a building along the Meguro River, about a five-minute walk from Nakameguro Station on the Tokyu Toyoko and Hibiya lines. The restaurant relocated within Nakameguro in 2019 and has continued serving its signature dish ever since.
KIJIMA built its reputation on torinabe, a chicken hotpot made with a rich, slow-cooked broth, alongside shabu-shabu featuring A4-grade Japanese beef and pork, and seasonal small plates. The dark, modern interior with private-room options suits both casual dinners and small celebrations.
With river views from parts of the dining room and a course-driven menu built around its signature hotpot, Nakameguro KIJIMA remains a go-to choice for diners looking for comforting, shareable Japanese cooking in one of Tokyo’s most walkable riverside neighborhoods.
