Salon Ginza Sabou - Tokyo

This place serves good lunch set, desserts and coffee at a reasonable price also in the bustling opposite of ginza. the rice is particularly fragrant. can not have an English menu, and the employees understand basic English, otherwise only show the photo the desired set. I have to go early to avoid the lunch.

NOT recommended!! Low quality , very high price and high COVID infection risk. Place is small, full of young people talking loudly without mask, sitting without the safe distance required. I had their famous parfait, which I used to love and recommend. This time a melted tasteless sod, truly hardly edible, at the whooping price of 1400 yen. A bad experience. Simply a cheat! Quality used to be great in the past, but now is very low for the price. Their system is obtuse, too: whilst they had four free seats dedicated to single clients, I had to wait over 30 minutes behind two couples, who were waiting to be seated at couple tables. How obtuse and foolish can you be, as a manager, to not be able to see reason? Half of their seats were unused whilst we were all waiting for the few couple tables to be freed! Obtuse should not get smart clients. Their quality is considerably down from three years ago, anyways. Their prices are enormous for the low quality they offer today. I recommend METOA cafe in the same building.

To find this cafe, it’s located inside a building called Tokyu Place which is connected to the subway exit. Make sure to look for the sign Salon as it’s actually a store on the front, and the cafe is hidden inside the store. Coming on a weekday before evening rush hour, there were seats available, however as time got closer to 5pm, spots filled up quickly. A lot of people come here as well as their desserts are very instagramable if you’re looking for that ; Their menu offers a small selection of matcha flavored desserts, as well as a few cakes and drinks such as lattes and tea. They have their famous matcha dessert which comes in a box and there are a few options for it. One with a set (drink , and one without. There’s also a sweeter and a bitter version, but honestly the bitter one wasn’t bitter at all (and I think it has more matcha anyways . Also, every person must order something (drinks are okay too . After placing an order, we didn’t have to wait too long for our items to come. The famous matcha boxed dessert is essentially matcha chocolate with matcha on top, inside a matcha tiramisu like filling with jelly inside. You’re supposed to break the top layer so the matcha powder mixes inside. Just a fair warning, their prices are not cheap, which is expected as it’s located in Ginza. The drinks and dessert were pretty good, and I loved how much matcha we got for the dessert. However, this is a place I’d probably only visit once in a while and not every time when I come back to Japan. IG: Ayenomz

There was a little waiting time (only 15 minutes) to get space, but there is a load to search the stool to sit on waiting. I have the matcha parfait teeset. it was surprisingly delicious that there were chestnuts and other tasty dishes in parfait. very recommended.

I am vile and this place went beyond and beyond to make it possible. loved the macha ice cream, mousse, power, especially combined with white chocolate, or nuts, or cream. also worth the price.
