Meguro (目黒区, Meguro-ku; Japanese pronunciation: [meꜜ.ɡɯ.ɾo, -ŋɯ.ɾo, me.ɡɯ.ɾoꜜ.kɯ, -ŋɯ.ɾoꜜ.kɯ]) is a special ward in the Tokyo Metropolis in Japan. The English translation of its Japanese self-designation is Meguro City. The ward was founded on March 15, 1947.

Meguro is predominantly residential in character, but is also home to light industry, corporate head offices, the Komaba campus of University of Tokyo as well as fifteen foreign embassies and consulates. Residential neighborhoods include Jiyugaoka, Kakinokizaka, and Nakameguro. As of May 1, 2015, the ward has an estimated population of 277,171 and a population density of 18,890 persons per km². The total area is 14.67 km².

Meguro is also used to refer to the area around Meguro Station, which is not located in Meguro ward, but in neighboring Shinagawa's Kamiōsaki district, 100 meters from the border with Meguro ward.
