A quick Google search of “Mexican Restaurants in Tokyo” brought up over 30 results in Tokyo. Hell, the other day I was watching the original Iron Chef from the 90s, and they brought in a Japanese Mexican Chef as a challenger.
I might have expressed myself wrong, it’s not that there aren’t Mexican food places at all, it’s that they’re much more rare than in the west (and the US specifically), and usually not great.
Plus, 30+ restaurants in a city as gigantic as Tokyo is not much at all.
Even if it were hard to find a good restaurant nearby, Greater Tokyo is fucking HUGE! I would be shocked if you couldn’t find pretty much all cuisine in or around Tokyo.
No mexican food in japan??? OP, it’s like saying theres no japanese food in Mexico… Have you ever traveled lmao?
A friend lived in Tokyo, his #1 complaint was lack of Mexican food.

There’s over 30 Mexican restaurant results for my city at 1% the population of Tokyo. Sounds like it’s pretty lacking to me
