An Unexpected Discovery! A Night in Shinjuku to Savour the Afterglow of an Event in a Private Room

Hello. I’m the PR representative for Rakuzo—a restaurant with all-private-room seating—at the Shinjuku East Exit location.

It’s that time of year when late-summer sunlight bathes the city, and the sky takes on a slightly deeper hue as dusk falls. Today, we’d like to share some tips on how to make the most of our restaurant—a hidden gem where you can chat with friends while still soaking up the excitement of Shinjuku’s events and live performances.

 

The Charm of a Hidden-Away Private Room You Reach by Avoiding the Crowds

Located at the East Exit of Shinjuku Station, this is a vibrant area constantly bustling with people. Have you ever found yourself wondering where to go after an event, lost in the crowded streets? Our restaurant is entirely comprised of private rooms, so the moment you step inside, you’ll find yourself in a quiet space where the outside hustle and bustle seems like a distant memory. It is precisely this “unexpected tranquility” that makes us the top choice for those who want to savor the afterglow of an event. An environment where you can discuss your thoughts on the concert or the day’s events to your heart’s content without worrying about prying eyes is truly an urban hideaway. With your privacy guaranteed, you can fully enjoy a special after-party just for your group, free from any interruptions. Please come and experience this contrast for yourself: the energy of Shinjuku on one side, and a serene atmosphere flowing just beyond the door on the other.

 

The Art of Space Design That Maintains a Sense of Unity Even With Large Groups

It’s not uncommon for group sizes to grow larger at post-event gatherings. Our restaurant offers a wide variety of options, ranging from private rooms for two to those for four, six, eight, ten, and twelve guests, as well as private rooms with sunken kotatsu seating that can accommodate up to 30 people. The sunken kotatsu seating, in particular, allows guests to stretch out and relax, making it ideal for long stays without feeling tired. Even with large groups, the private, enclosed space allows you to see everyone’s faces and enjoy conversations that foster a sense of togetherness. Event organizers particularly appreciate how convenient it is to select a private room of the optimal size to accommodate the number of guests. With excellent access from Shinjuku Station, travel from event venues is smooth, allowing you to get your after-party off to a comfortable start.

 

Smart Ways to Make the Most of Banquet Menus That Fit Your Budget

When planning a celebration, budget management is a key consideration for the organizer. At our restaurant, all set menus include a 2-hour all-you-can-drink option, allowing you to host your event with transparent pricing. For example, you can choose from options tailored to your purpose—ranging from the value-oriented “Guaranteed Private Room” [Taste Course] and “Guaranteed Private Room” [All-Chicken Course] to the “Guaranteed Private Room” [Four Seasons Kaiseki Course] and “Guaranteed Private Room” [Japanese-Western Fusion Course], which offer a luxurious dining experience. Additionally, if you’d like to strengthen bonds over a hot pot meal, we offer the “Guaranteed Private Room” [White Offal Hot Pot Course] and the “Guaranteed Private Room” [Taiwanese Offal Hot Pot Course]. For those who want to savor the rich flavor of meat, we also offer the “Guaranteed Private Room” [Sukiyaki Course]. Furthermore, even for the all-you-can-drink plans alone, we offer options such as “Private Room Guaranteed” [Standard] and “Private Room Guaranteed” [Premium], allowing you to flexibly combine them to fit your budget. The ability to host a fulfilling celebration within your budget while enjoying the added value of a private room is a major advantage unique to our restaurant.
