Many restaurants do Thanksgiving specials now- a big change from just 10 years ago! I must admit that I am biased. I own a small restaurant called "Kimono wine and grill" which is a euro american bistro. We do an Awesome Thanksgiving! truly one of the best and most affordable here in Tokyo. We do our turkey dinners two seatings a night for 5 days all around the American Thanksgiving week. http://www.kimonowinebar.com

Other great dinners can be had at
Roti in Roppongi http://www.roti.jp/en/index.php
TY Harbor in Tennoz http://www.tyharborbrewing.co.jp/en/
The Pink Cow in Roppongi http://www.thepinkcow.com/

Lots of hotels do thanksgiving specials now. And I will update more as I check around later this year!
