Eating in Chiba
Around Chiba station There's no shortage of places to eat in the vicinity of the central station. If sushi is your thing, head for the restaurant in Perie, the underground mall beneath the station area. Just go down the stairs immediately in front of the ticket gates at the station's east exit.
The Chiba Station building is a good spot to eat pasta, sweets, and so on. If you want to eat lunch, you will find many restaurants on C1 street. For example, there is a steak restaurant, Hokaben (a Japanese bento shop), Goemon (a pasta restaurant), and Sukiya (Japanese meat dish on rice). On Sunday, a lot of people come to the area, so the restaurants are crowded. However, there is usually enough space.
Western Food There are several western-style restaurants in and nearby Chiba for Americans who are feeling a little homesick and need a break from the excellent Japanese food found in Chiba. Many nonchain restaurants that purport to have Western food will be a disappointment to Americans. One such example is Upper Float, near Chiba Station, which bills itself as a Mexican restauarant, but is not at all authentic to Mexican or Tex-Mex food. It does have servicable margaritas, and is a popular hangout for expats - mostly British and Australian male english teachers in their 20s and early 30s, and the Japanese women who come there to meet them. Even some American chain restaurants in Chiba can be disappointing to Americans. Denny's in Japan looks like an American Denny's, but the menu is completely different. Royal Host and Skylark serve American diner-style food similar to an American Denny's menu. Some chain restaurants whose food is similar to what they serve in the United States are McDonalds and Starbucks (several locations), and a Kentucky Fried Chicken very near Chiba Station. The best bet for a full-service American restaurant is Outback Steakhouse, located in Kaihin-Makuhari. They have menus in English, and the atmosphere and food is exactly like that found in an American Outback Steakhouse.
