Best places: Restaurants in Iwai, Japan

👍👍 The average google maps reviews for this location are so high due to a maid cutely asking you to provide them with a review / while hovering until you do so. I still loved my time here despite this distasteful practice. That being said, the experience is exactly what one would want from a maid cafe...

😐 Interesting experience, desserts are good. Food is okay. The maids really hound you for a review and they watch you input it, so the ratings are probably overinflated. Do note that there’s like a 880 yen service charge and each person needs to order an item. The items are overinflated in price, but...

😐 I have read a lot of good reviews for that however this is rather small place which seems a bit odd to me. When we entered it was full of strange looking people who seems to enjoy getting drunk and looking in to (to)young Japanese girls. I know it is part of Japanese modern culture but it does seems...

😠 Similar to what another commenter said, they definitely try forcing you leave a 5 star review on Google for them at the end of the meal. I’m pretty sure most of the 5 star reviews here are because of that, we certainly were fooled. Our personal experience: went with a group of friends shortly after...

👍👍 I write reviews in English because I want foreign tourists to enjoy here! It's a little hard to find because it's a store on the first floor of an apartment. The door is a sliding door and very heavy, but this is for training! Inside the store, the chairs are probably small for people with large...

😠 Underwhelming and disappointing. Minimal interaction with maid. There was only 1 maid on the second floor when we were there. Ambiance was poor. Tourist trap given the high rating on Google review. Would give this place a miss.

Soup dumplings, fried gyoza & Chinese-style dim sum in a compact, lantern-strung venue.

Italian dishes, sweets & coffee in a warm cafe where visitors can play with resident rescue cats.

👍👍 Absolutely stunning!!! Loved the service and def the food. The cashier was really kind and friendly! We were the last five customers to get a seat after queuing up for almost 2 hours. I wouldn’t say it’s a 100% worth the queue but definitely worth the experience :) Highly recommend anyone travelling...

Steamed dumplings & sake are offered in this narrow, informal restaurant with a take-out option.

Cool, compact eatery doling out inventive burgers, plus vegan & vegetarian options.

👍👍 Excellent food and friendly and accommodating staff! I see why this place is so highly rated. Foreigner friendly too as they do have English menus. Only minor issue was that I couldn't use my credit card to pay for some reason that I'm fairly sure was due to my lack of Japanese skills. But luckily I...

👍👍 Amazing pizza. I got the margherita pizza. Tasty Neapolitan style soft crust. They also have a cozy bar and other food items that I didn’t try but I’ll for sure be coming back.

👍👍 Went on a weekday for lunch and was greeted, seated, and eated? Nonsensical words aside, great friendly atmosphere, tasty meat, sides, and dessert. I really like the attention to detail from the staff, especially covering all over our belongings to ensure the smell didn't seep into our belongings....

👍👍 Best shisha ever existed in this world !!!

👍👍 I ordered an 11 piece set to try everything. Every flavor was good. I actually ordered another 5 pieces after I was finished with the 11 piece set. They might be too oily for some, but I really really liked them. They also have specialty coffees and vegan ice cream! You can choose between almond, oa...

👍👍 You shall feel magical if this is your first encounter with owls. Do not miss it. This one is a bit more spacious than the other cafe in the same district. The owls look better and stronger, too. The staff are friendly. They bring you the owls and put them on your shoulders and arms. The small ones...

👍👍 This place is amazing. We have frequently dined here. It is pet friendly. The staff and owner are welcoming. Owner stated he had a shop in Hawaii for one year!! If you are in Chuo City..... you must check this place out! DELICIOUS 😋 there are books to read, coloring pencils and coloring book for ch...
