What Japanese guides note
Japanese nightlife resources frequently remind visitors that 1 OAK Tokyo relocated from its original Roppongi address to the former ELE TOKYO building right beside Azabujūban Station Exit 7. Security enforces the smart-casual dress code and age verification rigorously, turning away anyone in athletic wear, shorts, or sandals. Because the venue operates a zero-re-entry policy, patrons must deposit belongings in the cloakroom and remain inside for their entire stay.
