I never would have thought I would find an Aladdin themed restaurant in Tokyo, but I was very wrong. Themed restaurants are very popular in this city, great for dates, birthday parties, or taking a guest from out of town.
Arabian Rock is located in Shinjuku, amongst a cluster of other themed restaurants.
When you first enter Arabian Rock you must rub (push) the magic lamp to up the trap door where you meet the hostess who tells you there is a 500 yen table charge (if I remember correctly) and then does a whole charade with a magic lamp.
The food is presented beautifully, but the taste is a different story. Unfortunately the food wasn't very good and was not worth the price. (Our food actually came out luke warm.) But I have to say even in the states a lot of themed restaurants you don't go for the food you go for the experience, so keep that in mind on your visit to the Arabian Rock.

If you have a little extra time and money to spend in Tokyo and are really interested in themed restaurants, I would recommend it, but if you really want to enjoy the culinary excellence of Japan, this place is probably worth skipping.
