How this list works

Every restaurant here carries a recorded mention from Time Out and sits among the most critically acclaimed restaurants we index in Tokyo. Ordering is by total professional critic mentions, not user reviews or star averages.

A city with fewer than 5 recorded Time Out restaurants gets no page, so this is a list we can stand behind rather than a page built to exist.
