"I was looking for a cafe at Tokyo Station and stumbled upon this one. The bright interior and mostly foreign customers created a wonderful, exotic atmosphere. ✨ Ordering was done through a touch panel, and they accepted credit cards and IC cards. The caffè e llatte was delicious. When I was carrying a lot of luggage, a female staff member brought m"

"I'm a regular here for lunch! For the price, the main menu, plus soup and a drink bar, is a great value in Nihonbashi. Today I had the gratin lunch. The food comes out quickly, which is great for a busy lunch hour when you only have an hour. I've never been here for dinner, but it seems like it would be a good place for a group dinner with Italian"

"I went for lunch on a weekday. You can choose from pasta, meat, or fish. The price is 1200-1500 yen. I wanted to eat fish, but I gave up because of the price. 😭 I ended up getting the cod roe set. The taste was average. The soup and pickles that came with the set tasted like they were just thrown in. It was a bit disappointing. The atmosphere was n"

"It's easy to imagine that this area used to be filled with many small izakayas. However, with large-scale urban redevelopment, small izakayas and yakitori shops are disappearing one by one. This is one of the few that remain. It opens quite early, around 3 pm. I arrived a little after 4 pm, and there was no one else there. There are six seats at th"

"○ • You can enjoy a lot of German dishes. Especially the thick sausage and mashed potatoes were the best. • It reminded me of my trip to Germany last year, and it made me nostalgic. • I was injured in my leg, so I was grateful that the staff told me about the elevator on my way back. △ • Depending on the customer base at the time, there were two g"

"The thick, chewy udon noodles are delicious. I often go there when I want a quick meal. Personally, I prefer a lighter taste, so my go-to is the spicy miso kama-tama, but the raw soy sauce udon is also good. No-Ra-Bo provides a sense of security knowing that the quality is consistent across all locations."

"This Italian restaurant, located in the back alleys of Nihonbashi Takashimaya s.c., specializes in homemade fresh spaghetti. I ordered the "Chicken Minced Meat with Bone Marrow Salt Butter Soup Pasta" (¥1,350). I chose this dish because I wanted to try their signature "Chicken Minced Meat with Bone Marrow." The pasta comes with a salad and flavored"

"**Overall** The food was absolutely delicious, exceeding expectations with every dish. You can choose from cold or room temperature hand towels. The cold ones were frozen towels (lol). When you're seated, they explain the tempura and show you the vegetables. The service was great, but the restaurant is quite small, so be careful if you have a sui"

"Around 3:30 PM on Saturday, the first-floor counter (standing bar) was almost full, but I managed to squeeze in. I heard the second floor was empty, though. I ordered food based on the menu on Tabelog and drinks based on the posted menu. The bar area was run by a single female staff member. During busy times, it might take a while for your order "

"The meal consisted of appetizers, two pasta dishes, fish (クエ), meat (米沢牛), and dessert. Each dish was beautifully presented and meticulously prepared, making everything delicious. 🍽🌱 The fish dish with hidden risotto and the porcini pasta with butter and cheese were particularly noteworthy. 🐟💯 I could have eaten them forever. The sommelier's expl"

"I've been wanting to try this curry shop for a long time. I hadn't looked up the location, but it turned out to be super close to my office! I happened to be out and about, so I booked a reservation through Instagram DM in the morning and went. It's great that you can see what's on the menu for the day and book in advance! The set came with two cur"

"I was looking for a place within walking distance of my hotel and found this spot. It's right in front of Mitsukoshi Nihonbashi. Inside, there's a Toyama antenna shop, restaurants, bars, and more, making it a very spacious place. The bar corner offers Toyama sake and snacks for eat-in. This time, I ordered a sake tasting set of three varieties and "
