What To Expect
"We are the only spot in Tokyo where you're guaranteed to meet a Geisha, 365 days a year." Normally closed to first-time visitors without special introductions, geisha encounters like this are rarely accessible to the public. But at Benitsuya, anyone—regardless of background or language—can enjoy this elegant and immersive cultural experience. Upon entering the restaurant, be greeted by a beautiful room featuring crimson walls and traditional decor. Relax and unwind while savoring refined seasonal ingredients and signature Japanese cuisine. During your meal, enjoy elegant traditional dances performed by geisha. Unlike tourist stage shows, experience an intimate and authentic interaction rooted in centuries of Japanese art. After the performance, enjoy the rare opportunity to play ozashiki games and converse with the geisha. To cap off the evening, take memorable photos with the geisha, creating a truly once-in-a-lifetime souvenir.

Underwhelming

2.00This was definitely underwhelming and not what was expected from reviews on here. Our group was 5 people and one other woman was there. The two geishas just made small talk, and then did a few dances and games. Our group left wondering what exactly the point of the show was.
Geisha chat

4.00Despite the heavy price tag, I felt it was a really worthy experience - the privilege of meeting real life geishas so close up. Perhaps I was lucky that we were just two guests and we had one geisha each to chat with (via a voice translator). Don't expect too much of a show , most of the 90minutes we spent talking. They perform three short songs , and you play one game (this was such fun and I wish there had been more . The starter food plate was small but ok. Unlimited drinks are a benefit. The geishas were really charming and chatty and this was really a lasting memory. There are a couple of photo opportunities.

5.00It was a nice experience. We ordered the appetizers which were filling. The games were fun. We were a group of 7 and 5 of us played the games and we had a lot of laughs. The Geisha's took some time to warm up to the women in the group but they did as we all got involved with the games. Had a fun time!

5.00Such a fun and unique experience! My husband and I opted for the appetizer choice in dinner and it was exactly that. Included a few pieces of of steak among other small bites (no sushi or dessert) the food was all delicious, and the sake was great! Staff was attentive. The geishas were lovely and made the experience so fun and personable! Communication was not an issue, we even played a fun drinking game!
