FYI: Some places people speak really politely, so if that's the case listen for them to say "meshi agari" (to eat) and then you reply with the "Koko de" (for here) or "mochi kaeri" (take away).
People in Tokyo, especially restaurant staff, are pretty used to non-Japanese speaking foreigners so it shouldn't be too difficult.
