The Italian restaurant where Taki works his part-time job. The exterior of the Shinjuku Gyoen branch is used almost exactly in the film, including the outdoor terrace.
It's a real restaurant that's still operating. You can eat there — the pasta is decent. Peak hours (12-1pm, 7-9pm) get busy on weekends.

四ツ谷駅の歩道橋
The pedestrian overpass near Yotsuya Station where Taki and Mitsuha briefly pass each other during a chance encounter in Tokyo. A quieter, more bittersweet pilgrimage spot compared to the famous Suga Shrine stairs.
新宿歩道橋
The overpass where Taki gazes at the comet streaking across the Tokyo skyline. Located near the south exit of Shinjuku Station.
Shinjuku-gyoenmae Station (Tokyo Metro Marunouchi Line)
Exit 1, then walk 2 minutes south along Shinjuku-dori. The restaurant is on the left side of the street.
