Description

The tea program here draws on the Mizoguchi family's 400-year legacy, serving ceremonial-grade matcha noted for its vibrant color, smooth flavor, and transparent sourcing. Beyond the teas, the kitchen serves a wide variety of Japanese dishes, including Tonkotsu ramen and King Crab Ikura Don over cold tochucha noodles. The decorated interior offers a welcoming ambiance where dogs are allowed. While visitor experiences are generally positive, some note occasional service oversights and inconsistent portions for premium menu items.
