Zauo Shibuya: Catch Your Own Fish at an Indoor Fishing-Boat Izakaya
Zauo's defining feature is its indoor fishing pond: diners cast a line from a boat-shaped seating area surrounded by tanks of live seafood, and each successful catch is marked with a beat on a taiko drum before the kitchen prepares it as sashimi, on the grill, or fried. Guests who would rather skip the fishing altogether can simply order directly from the kitchen instead. It's a novelty-dining format that originated in Japan and has since been exported to locations overseas, and the Shibuya branch is a convenient way to try it without booking far in advance.
