Once a upon a time in Japan, ninjas roamed swiftly about and lived with their stealthy brethren in remote villages. We can only assume what life was like back then, but today’s curious travelers can visit the Koka Ninja Village in Koka City, not far from Kyoto. If a ticket to Japan is too much for your average week night, then make a reservation at this unique NYC restaurant located in the chic TriBeCa neighborhood.

Patrons are seated in secret rooms that are reached via a maze (to throw your enemies off your tail!), and enjoy menu items that might come with special effects, like the Strip Steak that's served flaming. Look out for ninja magicians who move undetected until they are just behind your chair, then surprise with a hearty “Hiii-yaaaa!”  One of Manhattan’s more unusual restaurants, Ninja is perfect for families looking for a side dish of fun with dinner.

A theme restaurant, according to Wikipedia, is an eatery where the “concept takes priority over everything else,” and is reflected in the design, menu items, music, and overall vibe.

Manhattan is home to lots of these unique concept-centric gems, from stadium-sized tourist attractions (Bubba Gump Shrimp, Planet Hollywood) to kid-centered branding machines (American Girl Cafe), from bookish (The Dead Poet) to spooky (Jekyll and Hyde), and every theme in between.
