Tendon Tenya

The aroma of sweet-savory tare and the brisk chill of fresh soba make a deeply satisfying combination when you want a substantial meal without fuss. Located on the basement 1 level of Shinjuku Eastside Square, this branch of Tendon Tenya offers classic tempura rice bowls—laden with prawn and vegetables coated in rich glaze—alongside sets that include chilled zaru soba or a small bowl of udon. The crisp batter contrasts neatly with tender steamed rice, while the refreshing slurp of noodles cleanses the palate between bites.

When you want a more generous spread, choices extend to the All-Star Tendon set, featuring prawn alongside a variety of seasonal and seafood toppings, as well as standalone tempura set meals. The menu also accommodates an easy drink after work with beer pairings, while online ordering provides an efficient route for takeout.

Orders can be placed using touchscreen ticket machines or handled at the small counter window, with credit cards and various forms of electronic money accepted. Once your ticket number is called, pick up your tray at the counter, then return used dishes to the drop-off point when finished. With ample counter seating available, solo diners can drop in comfortably, making it a reliable stop to beat the peak lunch rush or grab an early dinner on the go.
