Asakusa Imahan Kokusai Street Head Restaurant: Stroller access notes?

Yes. Two things to settle before you go. Getting there: the restaurant is right beside exit A2 of Asakusa station on the Tsukuba Express, 7 minutes' walk from exit 3 of Tawaramachi (Tokyo Metro Ginza line), 10 minutes from the Matsuya exit of Asakusa station on the Tobu line, and 14 minutes from exit A4 of Asakusa on the Toei Asakusa line. There is no car park; the restaurant asks you to use paid parking nearby. Inside: the building has three floors, but nothing official says how you get up them — no mention of a lift, steps or an accessible toilet anywhere on the site. Families with children below junior-high age are seated on the first floor in any case.. (checked 2026-08-13)

A sukiyaki and shabu-shabu house in Asakusa since 1895, serving only female black wagyu.

The sukiyaki here uses Senju negi scallions and shiitake picked thick enough to hold up in the broth.

Official: Child entry policy, Tatami seating, Private room

Born in Asakusa in 1895, it has served sukiyaki and shabu-shabu for over 130 years. Its beef is black wagyu, female cattle only, chosen across Japan by buyers who go and look. It is a licensed Kobe beef dealer with two contract farms in Hyogo. Sukiyaki here takes Senju negi, called the scallion among scallions, with shiitake picked thick. The building has three floors; the first has chair tables and a raised tatami area. It stands next to exit A2 of Asakusa Station on the Tsukuba Express.
