Torica Shinjuku - Tokyo

I really liked the unique tea selection and the delicious pumpkin cake at this restaurant, although it was a bit pricey.

I went to this restaurant on my birthday for the 3-course vegan lunch and was extremely impressed! It is located in a department store, with a fantastic market in the basement that is definitely worth exploring. The vegan dessert was delicious too! This review has been updated from a previous one dated August 14, 2023.

My colleague initially suggested a restaurant on the same floor, but we decided to dine here instead after I noticed the abundance of vegan dishes on the menu. I savored the carbonara and the cheesecake. This place is perfect for a diverse group as there are more vegan choices than omnivorous ones. Additionally, they have a fantastic shop selling a variety of vegan cookies and snacks.

Several vegan options see menu, can have a set course menu, also wine pairing. Good if you are with people who want meat. Rather pricey but good service and a bit off the crowds around SJ station. Inside the Isetan department store.

Many vegan choices but the portions are quite small and it is a bit pricey. Plus my pasta was not very flavorful and I was still hungry, might need to try other options.
