Sasaya Cafe — Restaurant in Tokyo

We two had a pleasant early lunch when we stumbled on this vegan place while walking in Sumida City. In addition to a very good meal, cool vegan packaged food and vegan souvenir items are available.

SERVICE: 5.0. Very considerate in explaining the lunch menu items to us, and delivering them to our table. Note that the system is to first choose a table, then bring the table number to the order counter. Next you order, and they will bring it to your table.

FOOD: 4.0. Very satisfying. Happy Holiday Special. A filling assortment of food, including mushroom stroganoff, saffron rice, a croquette, salad, dessert, and more. Weekly curry lunch special. A filling plate containing brown rice, salad, two kinds of curry, kabocha, and vegetables. Coffee. Quite good.

AMBIANCE: 4.0. Nice walkup location from a sidewalk in a nice park. Several tables spread across a main room, with a few more tables in an enclosed terrace facing the park. Jazzy (xmas and other)...

EDIT Don't go on weekends. The staff are overwhelmed and they have a terrible system if you want to find a seat. A really bad experience and I wouldn't recommend it.

A really spacious cafe with a terrace area that is dog friendly! A wonderfully healthy menu to choose from - there's a little something for everybody!

The Hummus Sandwich had lots of flavour and was surprisingly filling. Same with the Breaded & Fried Tempeh with Rice! I've tried a lot of plant based dishes that really lacked flavour, but this cafe was different! Highly recommend for both vegetarian and non-vegetarian foodies alike!

The interior was a bit humid/hot. That was my only complaint from my visit. But I got used to it after a while. Can't wait to go back and try...

めちゃくちゃ美味しかった🤩🤩 Even though it’s in the center of town (rly close to sky tree,) it’s rly quiet and has such a nice atmosphere! It’s very open and spacious inside. I was really surprised that such a restaurant was in Tokyo! Also the food was 🤌 (amazing!!) authentic vegan 和食/Japanese food. I loved how everything was vegan and authentic. Portion sizes were great (average Japanese portion size.) It’s also rly family/kid friendly, and has pretty good wheelchair accessibility in my opinion, seeing as the inside was incredibly spacious. Highly recommend...
