This cafe caught my eye from the pictures and reviews. The staff was very attentive and polite when I entered the cafe even though there was only another hour before closing. There are a lot of options on the menu, so I had a hard time deciding what to order. I decided on the pistachio dessert set. Pistachio is difficult to get right as many pistachio flavored things can taste weak if not made right. Unfortunately, that was the case here. All three desserts tasted very bland but looked very nice. It's still nice to try 3 things at once with a drink for the price of 1380 yen. Perhaps it was because it was around closing time, but the service was very slow. I waited probably around 35 minutes for my tiny desserts and tea. The interior and ambiance are lovely. Maybe I should have tried other items from the menu. Had mocha and parfait and they were both great! Unique set up and vibes. Friendly staff. Unique experience. The entire floor is made of comfy cushions. You take off your shoes at the entrance and then you sit on the floor. Very relaxing. We visited late at night after a full meal so only had dessert. Very delicious food and excellent service. Great atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Great atmosphere, comfortable cushion on the ground you can sit down, delicious meals. You have to take off your shoes at the entrance. I've never seen here.

As with the other restaurants in their company group, this particular restaurant will awe you first by their cushion-floor. The floor are cushions/matresses. Therefor you have to take off your shoes (and the waiter will put in the closet), and you will be directed to your place. I was amazed with their small but somehow large-felt lounge. I even more amazed to be directed to a small passage and ended up in a quite private room. It was cool. I ordered matcha with coconut ice cream (didn’t feel any real coconut actually) for 864 yen (all prices on the menu were 8% tax excluded). Herb tea was 600-ish yen
