 Tokyo Station - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tokyo Station (東京駅; -eki) is a train station located in the centre of Tokyo in the Marunouchi business district near the Imperial Palace grounds and somewhat to the north of the Ginza commercial district.
The Marunouchi side of Tokyo Station, facing the Imperial Palace, dates back to the original 1914 opening; the Yaesu side, facing Nihonbashi, is more recent and primarily accommodates the Shinkansen.
The Marunouchi side will be restored and the surrounding area converted into a broad plaza extending into a walkway toward the Imperial Palace, with space for bus and taxi ranks: this construction is scheduled for completion in 2010.

 Asli: Marunouchi - bento.com review
We were surprised to see the sign for a "slow food" restaurant in a Marunouchi office building basement, but then again we've seen a lot of interesting things in office buildings recently.
For example, just down the corridor from the slow-food place is a tiny bistro serving galette crepes from Bretagne.
Perhaps Marunouchi basements, rather than Nishi-Azabu back streets, are the real development laboratory for next year's food trends.

 Tokyo/Chiyoda - Wikitravel
Note that the Shinkansen will drop you off on the Yaesu side, which exits onto Chuo; to get to Chiyoda, you want to cross over to the Marunouchi side, which is something of a sight in itself as it reflects the station's original World War I-era architecture.
Many subway lines crisscross the district, of primary importance being the Metro Marunouchi line (to Shinjuku), the Metro Hanzomon line (to Shibuya), the Metro Hibiya line (to Roppongi) and the Metro Chiyoda line (to Harajuku).
The National Diet Building (Kokkai-gijido-mae, Marunouchi Line) may also be worth a photo, although its architecture is rather uninspiring compared to other national assemblies' (even the Tokyo Metropolitan Government has cooler-looking accommodations in Shinjuku).
