Speaking of Disneyland, one might imagine a European, Western, or American-style atmosphere, accompanied by sandwiches, steaks, churros, and popcorn…
But did you know Tokyo Disneyland also has a Japanese cuisine restaurant? I was surprised! The restaurant is called Hokusai (れすとらん北齋), and it’s the only Japanese restaurant in the park. However, from the outside, it doesn’t have a Japanese ambiance at all.
It’s located in the World Bazaar area, close to the entrance of the park. Once we entered, we were welcomed by a drawing by Hokusai, and the interior had a completely Japanese atmosphere. I honestly didn’t feel like I was in Disneyland!
The ceiling is high, creating a comfortable feeling. The restaurant has 270 seats and accepts reservations on the website in advance.
I didn’t take a photo of the menu since Disneyland changes it regularly. For the most up-to-date options, please visit their official website. Typically, they offer tempura, udon, tonkatsu, and chirashizushi throughout the year. During my visit, they recommended unadon (grilled eel on rice). Additionally, you can order a dessert for an extra 320 yen when you order a meal.
The ingredients for the chirashizushi (海鮮ちらし) change periodically. On this visit, it was made with salmon and salmon roe. The set also includes small dishes (like simmered food and tamago tofu) and miso soup. Here’s the salmon and salmon roe chirashizushi.
Hello, Mickey! His presence reminded me I was still in Disneyland 🙂
And there was crab on top. I think the chef mixes those three types of seafood together in advance and places them on the rice before serving. While the taste was good, the presentation could have been more appealing.
For drinks, we ordered strawberry amazake. It was very sweet! The pink-colored amazake contained one strawberry and mint. It was cute, and the taste was also cute. It was almost like juice, and I wondered if it contained about 1% alcohol. But it was good, and we drank it quickly since the portion was small.
