Frommer's Review
Located in Hibiya on Harumi Dori in the basement of an unlikely looking office building, this is a great place for lunch. Popular with the local working crowd (and therefore best avoided noon-1pm), it's pleasantly decorated in a rustic style with shoji screens, wooden floors, and an open kitchen. Take off your shoes at the entryway and put them into one of the wooden lockers. Choose what you want from the plastic display case, which shows various teishoku and set meals. Everything from noodles, sashimi, tempura, and obento to kaiseki is available. Unfortunately, the best deals are daily specials written in Japanese only; ask about them or look around at what others are eating.
There's another Donto on the 49th floor of the Sumitomo Building in Shinjuku (tel. 03/3344-6269; station: Tochomae), open the same hours.
