I found a pancake shop on Instagram that I've been hesitant to visit because it's located in Daikanyama and has a high-class image. I finally decided to go this time. I went without a reservation, but it seems like it's better to make one if you're planning to go. I visited on a Sunday morning at 8:35. I was actually planning to arrive earlier, but I overslept. As I entered, I thought, "I didn't make a reservation, will I have to wait?" There were already 3 groups ahead of me. The staff informed me, "The indoor seating is full, but we can seat you outside," so I chose the outdoor seating without hesitation. Surprisingly, I was seated within 10 minutes. It was mid-January morning, but it wasn't that cold. The seating was spacious enough for 4 people. There were chairs and sofas, and I chose to sit on the sofa. It was firm and comfortable, suitable for long periods of sitting. The staff said, "It's cold, so I'll turn on the heater," and they did. They also provided a lap blanket. I had decided on just ordering pancakes, but I added cream and espresso. First, the espresso arrived. I leisurely enjoyed it while waiting. The other customers included middle-aged couples with pets, solo female diners, and even a few solo male diners. Most of them ordered the pancake combo. The morning sun started to shine, making it warm and cozy, and the staff casually said, "It's getting warmer, isn't it?" The atmosphere was great. The pancakes arrived in about 15 minutes. - Classic Buttermilk Pancakes 1,580 yen (I chose maple syrup) - Fresh Cream 330 yen - Espresso Set (+350 yen) Total: 2,260 yen The pancakes were bigger than I had imagined! And there were 3 of them! I thought they would be smaller. When I peeked at the combo ordered by other customers, it seemed to have 2 pancakes. I'm glad I ordered them separately! The whipped cream was also generous! It was refreshing yet sweet enough. Just as I like it. The pancakes were slightly thick and fluffy. They were nicely soaked in maple syrup and butter. The whipped cream added extra flavor. It was definitely worth adding. I usually eat pretty quickly, but these were so delicious that I savored each bite. The warm sunshine felt nice, and I spent some time relaxing even after eating. I usually just quickly finish my meal at cafes and leave. This was the first time I could leisurely enjoy my time at a cafe. This is what cafes are all about, I realized. I would rate it almost 5 stars, but I want to try more items, so I'll give it 4.5 stars. I'll definitely come back for more. Thank you for the meal.

I had been curious about a restaurant tucked away in the back surrounded by greenery near Daikanyama Tsutaya, but it was always fully booked on weekends so I hadn't been able to go. Finally, I made a reservation for Friday lunch and was able to go! The reservation was for 11:30, and they mentioned multiple times that the lunch seating was until 13:00. They had course meals and a la carte options, and this time we chose a la carte. We started with a Japanese Cocktails martini with shiso and yuzu, which was dry with a strong shiso and yuzu aroma, a sophisticated taste that was delicious! For appetizers, we had red snapper carpaccio with lemon miso flavor, colorful vegetables presented beautifully, and the portion was enough for two to share. For the main dishes, we had Gorgonzola and fig pizza, which was square-shaped with plenty of Gorgonzola and crispy crust, a delicious taste that paired well with wine! We also had Kinkawabuta (gold pork) mapo tofu pasta, which was listed as pasta but was actually a Chinese noodle dish. It was a delicious Chinese flavor with tender pork! For dessert, we had chocolate and pistachio mousse, a dessert with a smooth texture and a good amount, also very delicious! The moment we entered the restaurant, it had an American vibe, reminding me of a delicious American Asian fusion restaurant. The complimentary peach ginger tea and coffee during lunch were also delicious, making it a great place to enjoy a leisurely lunch. I will definitely come back! Thank you for the meal!

Visited a restaurant I had been interested in for a while with my family. Ordered the Plant Cheddar Cheese Burger and Shine Muscat Pancakes! When I ordered the Plant Cheddar Cheese Burger, I accidentally said Plant Cheddar Burger, which made the staff burst into laughter and I had to order it again twice haha The food is stylish and has an authentic taste, very delicious. The burger has a rich meaty flavor, but thanks to the fresh lettuce and tomato, it can be eaten refreshing. The side potatoes also have a very good texture. The pancakes had a creamy topping that tasted like cheese rather than whipped cream, like a rare cheese cream. It had a gentle flavor that didn't interfere with the taste of the first Shine Muscat of the season, and it went well with the fluffy dough. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is also nice, and it's not too bothersome even with children. If I had to say, it might not be suitable for those who dislike children or want to eat quietly.

The quality of the food, the level of service, the ambiance of the restaurant, and the overall dining experience are becoming increasingly important in everyday dining establishments. Among them, restaurants operated by Tysons are all exceptional, and this particular restaurant made me feel very comfortable. From the way they answered the phone when I made a reservation to the moment I left the restaurant after finishing my meal, everything was perfect. The staff all treated me well and had genuine smiles on their faces. The ambiance inside the restaurant felt like a tastefully designed villa in the woods of Europe or America. There were many terrace seats that were inviting, but since it was still hot today, I chose a seat inside. The menu featured globally delicious dishes with bold flavors and cooking techniques tailored to the taste preferences of Japanese customers. There were many classic dishes from around the world that are not very common in Japan, with unique seasonings. Among the dishes I tried, the cream cheese jalapeno poppers were a favorite American dish of mine, and they were hot, juicy, and delicious. The breading was thin and elegant. The burrata cheese with fresh melon, roasted beets, and coppa salami did not have a name on the menu, but I personally loved the strong flavors of arugula mixed in, creating a complex swirl of aromas and flavors when eaten together. The Thai-style crunchy shrimp salad was of a decent portion size. It had a Thai influence, but it was not like som tam or larb moo, instead using cilantro and lime to create a Thai flavor without the spiciness or fish sauce. The sirloin steak was said to be from Australia, but it had very little fat, was very tender, and tasted fresh. Although it was not mentioned on the menu, it felt like grass-fed beef, and it was a plate of meat that you could eat quickly. The broccoli and tomatoes as side dishes were grilled and seasoned well, which was pleasing. What impressed me about the pancakes this time was the yogurt cream mousse paired with seasonal fruits like Shine Muscat. The acidity and yogurt flavor stimulated my appetite and made it an excellent dish. Thank you for the meal!

Located about a 5-6 minute walk from Daikanyama Station, this restaurant is tucked away behind Tsutaya Books. Visited with a friend and we were lucky to get a table without a reservation, despite it being a popular spot. The interior is spacious, divided into cafe, dining, and bar areas. The staff were busy but friendly. I had the weekly main dish (seared sea bream) which was surprisingly delicious, with a nice herbal aroma. The lunch set came with iced tea, bread, and coffee. My friend's biryani was also very authentic and tasty. Would love to try the pancakes next time!

I went to IVY PLACE, a place I wanted to visit. It has a lot of greenery in the middle of the city, and I was able to spend a relaxing time there. The terrace allows pets, so that's why I chose this restaurant. I ordered tacos, and the portion was generous, making it suitable for sharing. They were very delicious.

I had a wonderful time enjoying delicious food and drinks by candlelight. Despite its upscale image, the courses at the restaurant in Daikanyama were relatively affordable, and the atmosphere was incredibly stylish. I highly recommend this place for those looking for a special dining experience!

The appeal of this place is being able to enjoy a spacious and luxurious morning surrounded by greenery. While the shop refers to it as "breakfast," as a resident of Nagoya, I prefer to call it "morning." For more details, please see below. Make a reservation in advance through the official website. The day before, I received a thoughtful phone call asking, "Is there anything we can help you with?" which made me excited to visit. I arrived early and decided to wait for the opening while strolling through DAIKANYAMA T-SITE, enjoying the greenery and the dogs. As people started lining up before the opening, I joined the line about 5 minutes before. When the shop opened, those who had made reservations were seated first. However, since the number of seats was quite large and there weren't that many people lining up, it seems that you won't have to wait long if you arrive before the opening. The spacious interior was bathed in morning sunlight, creating a very pleasant atmosphere, and the staff greeted everyone, which was lovely. The items I ordered were Ivy Breakfast Pancake Collaboration Plate with Fried Egg or Scrambled Egg, Honey Syrup or Maple Syrup for 2,300 yen, and Seasonal Smoothie with Kale and Kiwi Fruit for 900 yen. First, the smoothie was served. The acidity of the kiwi was refreshing, and there was no vegetable-like taste, making it easy to drink. The homemade dried lemon fruits added texture and additional acidity, making it enjoyable. I felt healthier from drinking it in the morning. And then the pancake plate. It's hard to tell from the photo, but it was a pretty large plate, with sausages as big as bananas. The pancakes were on the chewy side. However, they seemed a bit dry, possibly from sitting for a while. The uniquely shaped butter had a simple milky taste on its own, but when combined with the pancakes, it transformed into a rich and intense flavor reminiscent of wildness. At first, I thought it had the taste of processed meat (bacon or sausage) even after wiping it, but that was the flavor. When topped with mineral-rich maple syrup, it became a rich dessert on its own. The bacon was crispy and the sausage was juicy. The fried egg had a fluffy white and a slightly runny yolk that was rich in flavor. The vegetables were in moderate amounts, but they were very flavorful and fresh without any bitterness, which was nice. It was a very luxurious breakfast. However, as a Nagoya resident, paying over 3,000 yen for a morning meal felt quite expensive. Also, while the phone service was polite, the on-site service was quite cold or indifferent. The air conditioning was quite strong, making it harsh for the body that had been chilled by the smoothie.

I visited after several years. It was a rainy day with unstable weather, but the restaurant was still bustling and the atmosphere and food quality were excellent as always. This time, I tried the lunch course, but I would like to visit again to enjoy the popular pancakes.

I went to IVY PLACE, my favorite restaurant, after a long time. The relaxed table seating and great atmosphere make it a perfect place for a date. They offer unique dishes on the menu and you can also enjoy craft beer - so happy! The food is always delicious, never a disappointment. I want to go for brunch next time!

The atmosphere was great. The interior was dim and calming. The prices were on the higher side. I went with a friend and we shared pasta and pancakes. The pasta was delicious but not something I would crave to eat again. The pancakes were the same.

We were able to choose a course meal from appetizers to dessert, so we could eat our favorite dishes. It was fun to share various dishes with the three of us! The taste and atmosphere were both wonderful! We used it to celebrate my mother's birthday and we were very satisfied. Thank you very much.

Visited around 15:15 on a regular day. It was about 70% full during cafe time, but the terrace was empty because it was too hot. I was in the back area, and there were several noisy kids next to me, sounding like tropical birds. The staff were considerate, though, and I understand the feelings of moms who want to go to a stylish cafe with their kids. I enjoyed my calorie intake despite the noise. The adult staff were attentive, timing my coffee refills and asking if I needed more milk. They also kindly took photos for families and couples, which was heartwarming. ★ Single origin coffee 700 yen ★ Pavlova with berry sauce 980 yen The coffee was a Nicaraguan Nozy coffee drip, with a smooth and rich texture as described. It was delicious, and I was happy to have refills. The Pavlova was thin and crispy, perfect when paired with the fluffy cream. There are many good cafes in Daikanyama, but sometimes it's nice to visit the classic big box cafe like this one.

I wanted to have pancakes for breakfast, so I visited the restaurant during breakfast time. Since I couldn't make a reservation online, I decided to try calling, and surprisingly, I was able to make a reservation. I opted for a combo because I thought I might get bored with just pancakes. I added my favorite fresh cream as well. Since it was morning, I ordered a hot coffee. The portion size was quite substantial, with plenty of fresh cream. Personally, I thought one plate would be enough for two people. The price seemed fair considering the portion size. The buttermilk pancakes were delicious, especially the whipped butter on top. The additional fresh cream was fluffy and tasty, but I couldn't finish it all because it was too filling. The coffee was from Nicaragua, Buenos Aires. It was a bit too dark and strong for my liking, but I ended up having two cups. The hot coffee was free, but it was a bit inconvenient that they didn't offer refills even when the cup was empty. The terrace seats were available without a reservation earlier in the day, but by 9 am, the restaurant was already full. I enjoyed the ambiance for a solid 90 minutes.

I often visit Daikanyama T-SITE itself, but this place was always crowded so it was my first visit. I found out that you can make reservations online, so of course I made a reservation. There is no handling fee, so reservation is a must. The place is located beyond Tsutaya Books, and there are separate entrances depending on whether you have a reservation or not. The interior of the restaurant is spacious, open, and stylish. It feels like a little resort. There are many staff members and it is very user-friendly. However, it is a bit noisy, making it hard for voices to carry. I was looking for pancakes, but to eat them with sausages and other items, I had to order the morning set. So, I also ordered the cutlet. - Spicy Chicken Cutlet: Smooth mashed potatoes with cutlet and cheese on top. The cutlet is tasty with a hint of spices. It's not very spicy, more like a fragrance of spices. I personally like the taste because of the star anise. - Classic Buttermilk Pancakes: Three layers of fluffy pancakes. Drizzle melted butter and maple syrup over them. They are delicious! You can taste the flavor of milk and the butter is also tasty. I devoured them in no time. - Single Origin Coffee (HOT): It has a good aroma, is easy to drink, and tastes delicious.

I finally visited the stylish restaurant in Daikanyama that I had been curious about for a long time. All the seats were lit by candles, creating a calm atmosphere where I enjoyed a course meal. At the end, they prepared a birthday plate for me, and I was able to celebrate in a lovely setting.

Nestled in a lush green setting, "IVY PLACE" is a cafe that offers a tranquil escape. This cafe earned its spot in the prestigious "Tabelog Top 100 Cafes of 2022" list. Conveniently located just a 7-minute walk from Daikanyama Station, it's tucked away behind the "Tsutaya Books" store. The interior boasts ample seating, and the terrace area is surrounded by vibrant greenery, creating an inviting ambiance. Notably, "IVY PLACE" is one of the establishments under the umbrella of Tyson's & Company, the team behind well-regarded places like "T.Y.HARBOR" and "CICADA." Situated within the T-SITE GARDEN complex in Daikanyama, this dining destination is managed by TYSOS & COMPANY. Its enduring popularity consistently astonishes. Offering not only breakfast, lunch, and dinner but also a light meal option from 4 to 5 PM, it caters to various preferences and schedules. On the day of my visit, I enjoyed a delightful light lunch. Despite being a weekday during a slightly off-peak time, the cafe was bustling with activity, nearly at full capacity. Feel free to check out the Instagram account '@chocofurape'. Liking posts, following, and saving the cafe's content would be greatly appreciated as a way to show your support.

I made a reservation at a restaurant to have my wisdom tooth extracted and thought there might be some things I couldn't eat on the course menu, so I looked for a place where I could order a la carte and still be able to drink wine. I made a reservation for 6:00 pm, but it was already dark outside, and the interior of the restaurant was quite dim! By around 7:00 pm, it was almost full and very lively, so I tried to order by raising my hand, but the staff didn't seem to notice. The cafe had a very nice atmosphere, so it seems suitable for dates or girls' night out. It was too hot today, but it would be nice to sit on the terrace and have a drink when it gets a little cooler. I ordered the seasonal vegetable cold soup gazpacho and grilled swordfish. The soup was made of pumpkin, but it had a strong curry flavor. It was delicious, but the pumpkin flavor was a bit subtle. Both the gazpacho and swordfish were delicious. The cost performance was good, the atmosphere was nice, so I would like to visit again if I have the chance. Thank you for the meal!

I visited the restaurant 5 minutes before it opened in the morning. There were about 15 people in line, but we were able to get in right away. I ordered the morning set with pancakes, fried egg, sausage, bacon, and salad, as well as just pancakes and two smoothies. The savory and sweet pancakes complemented each other nicely. I don't usually eat breakfast every day, but I wanted to experience the atmosphere! The portions were large, so I will go easy next time! It made me want to go back and remember Hawaii!

Every Saturday evening in 2023.8.12 is our dining out day. We went to a restaurant with my partner after his work. I knew about the existence of the restaurant, but today was our first visit. It was crowded probably because it was the weekend. Since I didn't know when my partner's work would end, we went without making a reservation. We entered the store once to make a reservation and then waited while taking a walk in TSUTAYA. However, we were called in to the restaurant without waiting too long. We were seated in a nice corner by the window. It was the last day of work before summer vacation, so we ordered a course. Everything was delicious, and towards the end, my partner struggled to finish the chicken dish because he was already full. Thank you for the meal. We will definitely go back again.

Looking for pancakes~. I felt like eating pancakes, so I visited with my friends. As expected of a popular cafe in Daikanyama, there are plenty of seats, but there was a long line. Luckily, we were able to get inside in about 5 minutes this time. The seats are limited to 2 hours, so they will let you know when your time is up. If you want to take your time, you might want to consider another cafe. The pancakes were really delicious. Thank you for the meal!
