E.A.T.

Came here to get a quick bite for dinner. Ended up ordering a Carnitas Burrito. Hands down one of the best burritos I’ve tried so far in Tokyo. Well balanced ratio of meat, rice, beans, guacamole, and cheese. It will certainly satisfy your tastebuds and your appetite but maybe not your wallet lol The burrito comes in at 1,400円 which is a little more pricier than a frijoles large size burrito.
EAT definitely tries to capture the California cuisine but don’t expect too much or try to compare the food to food back home. Especially with some of the Chicken based sandwiches. They use Chicken thigh with skin rather than whole chicken breast.
Either way, the burritos and hamburgers are bomb:)

My wife and I are on the hunt for the best burgers in Japan. We’ve had quite a few, including:
Blacow’s:
Brozures’:
E.A.T:
Some of the Tokyo Best Hamburger guides list A&G Burger as a contender for top Tokyo burger. We walked around looking for it without success. I asked some locals where it was using my broken Japanese and was surprised to hear they had either moved or went out of business. Oh well! We walked around some more, looking for an alternative lunch place, and stopped dead in our tracks from the smell of delicious meat. We looked up. The sign said E.A.T. So that’s exactly what we did. We went in and ate.
The burger we ordered today was: Cheddar, two Wagyu beef patties, Japanese bacon (kind of like fatty Canadian bacon), tomato, lettuce, Japanese BBQ sauce, and mustard. It’s hiding, but there’s also guacamole and another type of sauce I couldn’t identify (but it was very good!)
E.A.T is notable compared to many other burger joints in that:
a. The menu is pretty diverse. They cook a lot more things than just burgers.
b. They have a liquor license (actually, this appears to be more common in Japan than it is in the USA).
c. The french fries don’t suck. In fact, they’re great.
The bun here was notable: it’s not the toasted sesame bun you normally get in Japanese burger joints. Much thinner and less intrusive on the burger. It serves to wrap the hamburger and its friends inside a delicious starchy wrapping, but doesn’t diminish the hamburginess of the hamburger in any way, shape or form. The bread looks a little English muffiny and keeps firm despite the moist hamburger ingredients.
The fries were hand made with a very crispy outside and soft /​moist inside. We’ve generally been disappointed with Japanese french fries, but these were fresh and hand made. Cooked beautifully, as you see in my picture. Beautiful golden color.
As with all burgers here, the beef is Wagyu.
There are four breeds of wagyu: Japanese Black (黒毛和種), Japanese Brown (赤毛和種), Japanese Polled (無角和種), and Japanese Shorthorn (日本短角和種).
In the USA, our Angus cattle was bred with these Japanese breeds, and given a diet that mimics the Japanese cattle diet. This beef is branded as (American) kobe beef, but it’s not nearly as marbled, fatty, or soft as real Japanese beef.
In my experience, Japanese beef IS softer and much more marbled than American beef. However, our beef is fattier and stronger flavored… it has a stronger beefier quality. By American standards, Japanese beef doesn’t taste very «beefy». The result is that Japanese burgers tend to be polite and genteel. American burgers are unapologetically rude and throw that beef flavor right into your face. I miss that. But if you think of Japanese burgers as a cuisine all unto themselves, then E.A.T burger is certainly one of the top contenders for the Best Hamburger in Tokyo.
As with our other burger experiences, the bacon at E.A.T is still more akin to Canadian bacon than real bacon, but I think this might have been one of the closest facsimiles to good ol’ USA bacon. Don’t get me wrong — it was still limp, but much better than the bacon at, say, Brozures’ or Blacows.
The cheddar was a very high quality sharp cheddar which would’ve almost overpowered the Japanese Wagyu patties. However, they use just the right amount and I found the sharpness of the cheddar contrasted nicely with the rest of the burger.
The BBQ sauce you see in my pictures is a Japanese BBQ sauce, which is quite different from American BBQ sauce. It’s not overly sweet, and you won’t bite into the burger and be overwhelmed by it. The BBQ sauce is much more harmonious with the meat than BBQ sauce you see in the USA. Not distracting from the flavor in the slightest.
The other sauce you see, well, I couldn’t identify it. It’s mild, unobtrusive and mainly adds texture to the overall burger. Thumbs up.
The vegetables, as with most other Japanese burgers, are fresh, tasty, and fit the burger perfectly.
So what is the bottom line? Out of all the Japanese burgers I’ve eaten so far (2014-​06-​22) I’d rate E.A.T second best in Tokyo so far. If you have two hamburgers here, E.A.T should definitely be one of them.

Best American style burgers in Tokyo. Most other places in town can’t get the bread right, have beef patties that are too much like meat balls, and are just to damn neat. E.A.T satisfies that need for a perfectly sloppy, greasy, meaty burger that’s just impossible to find in Tokyo.
