Important Notice:We have made the tough decision to say goodbye to the Foursquare City Guide mobile app, effective December 15, 2024, with the web version to follow in early 2025. Visit our FAQ for more information or to download our Swarm app.
These places are either horrible, or somehow managed to piss me off in some major way (it isn't that difficult). I'll avoid the obvious tourist traps, since the list might be endless.

Speakeasy · Dōng sì shítiáo · 30 tips and reviews
Greg K: Just look at those salt and pepper shakers... This pretty much shows what this place is like. Perhaps some students enjoy this place, but I am not a student and this is my fucking Fucking Black List.
Greg K: Laowai infested. Overpriced books. Average food and drinks. Might have been an important gathering spot for expats in the past, but those days are over.
Japanese Restaurant · Kensington and Chelsea · 178 tips and reviews
Greg K: Not sure what kind of cuisine is it supposed to be, but sure as hell this isn't japanese. Ingredients are of questionable quality and "fusion" is not an excuse for chef's lack of direction.
Japanese Restaurant · Yong'anli · 5 tips and reviews
Greg K: This restaurant is a disgrace to the original Nadaman in Japan. The insistence of the waiters to serve everything at once, as if it is a Chinese restaurant, kills the attempt to enjoy Kaiseki. Bad.
Greg K: Maybe I got there at the wrong time, but I have found the low threshold of base alcohol shocking, while the whole "bar tending" situation simply wasn't present at all. Plenty of better places in Ginza
