When does Takumi Shingo open its reservation book?

No phone bookings. Seats are sold through the Shokuoku auction site, where the right to a seat is bid on when the house posts dates (none open as of 7 September 2026), with occasional listings on Ikyu and Tabelog. Two seatings, 17:00 and 20:00; closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays. All times are Japan Standard Time (UTC+9).

How do I book Takumi Shingo from abroad?

Takumi Shingo takes reservations online through Shokuoku (食オク), which you can use from abroad with your own account and a credit card. If you would rather not, our Tokyo desk can request it for you: ¥12,000 per seat, charged only if the table is secured. A free release-date alert emails you the day before, on the morning of release day (08:00 JST) and about 30 minutes before when the opening time is known; houses that open a little every day come in a weekly summary.

What time zone is the release time?

All times are Japan Standard Time (UTC+9). Release days are computed from the house's published rule and re-checked monthly.
