Late night bar, intimate, delicious personal drinks. Seriously great
Kate FurmanMarch 23, 2015They have the fancy Japanese toto toilet with the heated seat. Coffee is good too.
Simon HSeptember 7, 2014Love love love! Try the ginza style slow drip coffee and the classic katsu sandwich. Amazing
nina arbuaratnaAugust 28, 2014The pancake setto comes with orange marmalade butter...best paired with a pour-over Tokyo blend coffee.
Paul BrennerAugust 10, 2014Get here early! Everything is made with care and the utmost quality, but seats fill up fast and turn over slow.
KAugust 18, 2015Stopped by on a whim & had the friendliest & most accommodating bartenders! Try a sake cocktail!
Alex RobertsonApril 12, 2019Went on a date right when it (re)opened and had an absolute blast/the place to ourselves. Didn't love the fried chicken though
Laurence BAugust 27, 2015Many cold options including cold brew and siphon. Nice, cute little shop. Prices charged don't always match the menu, oddly.
Steve RhinehartOctober 4, 2013Coffee served with care, attention to every detail. Get the hot cakes and a siphon to stay.
Ronak DayaMay 12, 2017The best sake bar in NYC! It's like traveling to Tokyo through the east village.
Claire YuFebruary 10, 2015Try the siphon coffee! Everyone seems to know everyone here. It's a very intimate Japanese coffee kan.
Melon LNovember 4, 2018Hot cakes are worth coming to nyc for. Seriously. It’s closer than Japan, after all.
Estelle TchaMarch 20, 2018best matcha lattes! the famed katsu sandwiches are only available for luncu
AmateurConciergeMarch 28, 2015Drinking sake here late at nite makes you feel like you're at a fashionable Tokyo bar
This place is a gem. Perfect for a relaxing cup of coffee on a quiet afternoon.
Jay DixitSeptember 3, 2015Tomago sandwich perfect fluffy omelet with thinly sliced cucumbers perfect
Raphael LangenscheidtJanuary 6, 2016Non-sweet plum wine is still plenty sweet. Wagyu and pork platter is delicious.
Amanda TheilerFebruary 27, 2015japanese pancakes $8.50-go before 11 and it's $2 cheaper, also, you have to order a drink or you pay $2 more!!
Danyel SmithJanuary 19, 2016the coffee yes but thick little pancakes --yesyesyesyes. split an order.
Lovely place to slow down and sip your coffee while enjoying a book.
Friendly staff! The katsu sandwich is delicious and the mizudashi coffee is really good!
Tianqi LiaoNovember 8, 2017Recommending the chicken katsu sandwich, or the pork, which are only served on a limited basis after 12pm
- Alex RobertsonDecember 5, 2021New space on ninth street maybe slightly less cute with the lack of a narrow “train-car” vibe but also probably better in all
VincentAugust 8, 2016Bad service. Ordered an iced siphon and it took 15 minutes before she even started making it and served it to me hot. Our barista seemed snobbish. Fancy place and nice decor but bad vibe.
Hot cakes with gelato so oishii-desu, and I'm not even a big pancake fan!
