I ordered a lot of sweets, smoothies, meat, and vegetables, and they disappeared in no time. It was nice to relax on the sofa while enjoying them, and they seemed easy to digest. One thing that was a bit disappointing was having to order through a smartphone app, which felt a bit bothersome. The atmosphere was nice and I felt strangely calm in the restaurant.

I visited the cafe for a break. Although all the desserts looked delicious, this time I ordered smoothies!!! I tried the AKA and KIIRO smoothies, and they were even more vibrant in color than I imagined, and the taste was very delicious! I definitely want to come back for more! Next time, I want to try their lunch menu too!

This time, I used it for lunch. I was unsure of what to order, but this time I ordered the "Balanced" set meal with meat, fish, and vegetables. The restaurant was full, so I had to wait. I ordered the "Balanced" set meal with meat, fish, and vegetables for 1,628 yen. It included chicken thigh with black vinegar sauce, grilled yellowtail, vegetable-filled goya champuru, quinoa with sesame oil, rice, miso soup, and pickles. The "Balanced" set meal includes three main dishes with plenty of side dishes. It was delicious and filling. The restaurant has many female and families with children as customers. The staff's customer service was polite. This cafe is located inside Ikebukuro PARCO.

I came to the restaurant with a friend and ordered the Strawberry On The Milk. We were able to be seated right away, probably because it was nighttime. The price was a bit high, but the flavor of the strawberry and chocolate was rich and delicious. As a sweet tooth, I really enjoyed it.

I visited the Spicy VAGE Taco Rice Soup Lunch at Soymeat during lunchtime. Instead of meat, they used soymeat for the taco rice! It was healthy and incredibly delicious with plenty of protein and vegetables. I was very satisfied and full. I recommend it to those looking for a cafe in Ikebukuro.

I visited around 3 pm on a weekday. I missed lunchtime, but the restaurants in Parco are always available, which was convenient for me. I was hungry, so I chose the daily lunch set that allows you to eat a lot. The menu focused on health, with options like "healthy," "balanced," and "low-carb," with a main dish and side dishes. Everything looked delicious, and the side dishes were clearly listed, so I could avoid items I didn't like. There were also small dishes available, allowing me to enjoy a variety of dishes in small portions. Ordering was done through a smartphone, which was convenient, but it might be tricky for those not used to using smartphones. There were various lunch courses available, so I would like to visit again.

Near the elevator in Parco! It was nice that there were tatami seats in the back where even babies could relax! It was convenient to leave the stroller at the entrance - very thoughtful. I was happy to have a choice of meat set meal, vegetable set meal, and fish set meal! It was nice to be able to relax as it was a weekday.

I missed lunchtime and wanted to have some tea, so I went in and found a salad plate with mini pancakes which was just right. I chose the mushroom and coriander salad, but there were other salads like kale and avocado that looked appealing to women. The set meals also looked delicious if you wanted something more substantial. The menu is quite detailed with daily specials and the option to add small side dishes. However, the restaurant is located in Parco near the station, so you have to leave after 90 minutes. They will remind you if you stay too long because it's easy to get caught up in conversation and linger.

I visited for the purpose of dining. I rarely have the opportunity to eat slowly and my nutrition was also lacking, so I had a very good time. The variety of the menu, the abundance of side dishes other than the main dish, and the satisfying desserts made it difficult for my indecisive self. However, it makes me want to visit again and again! Above all, the food is really delicious! Recommended for those who want to spend a leisurely meal time!

After work, feeling a bit tired and wanting to eat out before heading home. It's nice to be able to have a healthy set meal even at night. This time, I ordered the Balanced Set Meal with Jasmine Tea. The contents of the set meal seem to change weekly, and on this day it was Chicken and Eggplant with Yuzu Pepper Miso Sauce. The main dish of chicken and eggplant was piping hot and delicious. The meat was tender and the Yuzu pepper added a nice kick. The salad consisted of shredded cabbage and tofu with chili oil, which was pretty standard but satisfying as part of the set meal. The seasoning was just right, not too strong or weak, which I liked. There are five different themed set meals that change weekly, as well as salad deli sets available. The atmosphere is calm and relaxing. The menu and ambiance are definitely geared towards women. Personally, I think it's perfect for dining alone after work.

I visited the restaurant for lunch on a regular day. It was my first time at this place, but the staff were friendly and the stylish interior was calm, allowing me to enjoy my lunch in peace. I started with the KIIRO smoothie, and for the main course, I ordered the Angus beef steak. The smoothie was made with tropical fruits like pineapple, banana, and mango, making it fruity and refreshing. It was surprisingly filling and satisfying. The Angus beef steak came with oyster sauce, wasabi, yuzu pepper, Sichuan pepper, and salt for flavor variations. Under the steak, there was a stir-fried mix of bacon and beans, which was also delicious. The steak was tender and easy to eat, even though it was lean meat. After the meal, I received a complimentary dessert for following the restaurant on Instagram. It was a small pancake topped with berries and cream, which was soft, mildly sweet, and satisfying. I enjoyed the healthy and delicious meal, and I plan to visit again soon!

I visited for lunch on a holiday. I arrived a little after 11 o'clock and there were a few customers already there. There were some empty tables, so I thought I might be able to get seated soon if I waited a bit, but it seemed like there were a lot of reserved tables, so I ended up waiting quite a bit. Therefore, it's safer to make a reservation on weekends. I waited for about 30 minutes before being seated. The salad plate looked delicious, but I ordered the weekly special lunch, Pork Ginger. It was a substantial lunch with side dishes included, and it was a good place to have a satisfying meal. It's like a slightly more stylish version of places like Ootoya or Obon, a restaurant for the common people. I thought it was a good place to visit when you're at Ikebukuro Parco.

I arrived at the restaurant around 11:00 on Saturday and was able to enter smoothly. I ordered the Crunchy Pork Kimchi with Quinoa and Chili Oil Cold Tofu for 1250 yen, and the Chicken Karaage with Yuzu Pepper Sauce and Dashi Tororo for 1550 yen with sprouted barley rice for an additional 200 yen. The tray had a variety of small dishes, which looked visually appealing and tasted great. The interior of the restaurant was a bit dim, creating a relaxing atmosphere where friends, families with children, and others can enjoy their time comfortably.

It was my first time visiting this restaurant, but the staff were friendly and the stylish interior was relaxing. I enjoyed a lunch in peace as it was not crowded. This time, I ordered Angus beef steak. The Angus beef steak came with oyster sauce, wasabi, yuzu pepper, sansho pepper, and salt for flavor variation. Under the steak, there was sautéed bacon and beans(??), which I also enjoyed. The meat was easy to eat, not too tough even though it was lean!

I ordered a smoothie! It was made with real fruits, not too sweet, and had a perfect balance. It was delicious! I want to go back again! Keep up the good work!

I was expecting a healthy meal, but as you can see in the photo, the presentation was disappointing, and my excitement dropped before even trying it. The salad seemed like a mix of store-bought cut vegetables with commercial dressing, the cold tofu tasted like the cheap ones sold in supermarkets, and the main dish of fish and tofu simmered in miso had a weird texture from the excessive use of starch (did they put too much?). The multigrain rice was mostly white rice with just a few grains of mixed grains. I added 0.5 points for the gratitude of serving lunch even during afternoon tea time.

This is a restaurant located inside Ikebukuro PARCO. I visited around 6 pm on a weekday. It was relatively empty on weekdays and they had seats available for 1 person or 4 people. They had 5 different weekly lunch sets, but I chose the low-carb set. It was about 200 yen more expensive than the others, probably because it came with sprouted barley rice, which I personally enjoyed for its chewy texture. The weekly set included chicken meatballs simmered in yuzu sesame sauce and pickled natto cold tofu. The chicken meatballs only came with 3 pieces, so I wished there were more, but it was a good choice for a healthy meal. The pickled natto had a delicious sourness that I liked, and I want to try making it at home. The price felt a bit high, but the main dish was decent in portion size and taste, while the salad and miso soup on the side were average. Considering the convenient location and dinner time, I think it's worth a visit again for the good nutritional balance. The staff at the restaurant were very friendly and had lovely smiles!

I visited the cafe around 2 pm on Saturday. The seats were mostly taken, so it seemed like there were customers using the cafe. I ordered the Energy Set. The menu emphasizes high protein, and it's true with two crispy and fluffy fried horse mackerel pieces. The tartar sauce was generously applied, so it was perfect!

I made a reservation the day before because there was a lunch course with a whole cake included for a discounted price of 1,980 yen per person (tax included)! 【Good Points】 1. They confirmed the reservation details and even how the cake would be presented over the phone in a very polite manner. 2. The seating was like a semi-private room, so I felt safe in terms of COVID-19 precautions (this may vary depending on the assigned seat). 3. The staff's service was excellent (everyone was smiling and cute!). 4. The surprise whole cake was huge! 【Points to Note】 The whole cake was a bit too big to share between two people... so when sharing with two people, make sure to go on an empty stomach or you might not be able to finish it all! (lol)

There is a cafe in Ikebukuro PARCO with lots of cute Pingu decorations. atari CAFE＆DINING Ikebukuro PARCO store is collaborating with Pingu. The entrance sign, interior illustrations, and even plush toys are all Pingu-themed. The cuteness is overwhelming and you'll be spoiled for choice on where to take photos! The adorable Pingu menu is available until June 30th. The cafe has implemented thorough COVID-19 precautions such as disinfection and spacing between tables, so you can relax and enjoy. Here are some of the new menu items we tried: Pingu's Snow Mountain Milk Strawberry Pancake for ¥1320, Fruit Milk Float for ¥900, and Fruit Milk (takeout) for ¥700. The Snow Mountain Milk Strawberry Pancake features Pingu and Pinga sledding down from the mountaintop, with strawberries and smooth milk cream. The pancakes are stacked in two layers underneath the cream. The drinks come in Fruit Milk Float and Fruit Milk, with flavors like mango, strawberry, and banana. The drinks contain fruit pulp and puree, and the Float has ice cream on top. The drinks also feature Pingu, Pinga, and Robby, making it hard to take a sip because they're so cute.

It was around 5:00 PM on the weekend when I visited this cafe located inside a department store. The atmosphere was calm, with cushioned bench seats towards the back. I ordered cheesecake and pancakes, which arrived in about 10 minutes. The cheesecake was rich and not too sweet, while the pancakes were topped with plenty of cream. The cream was not overly sweet but a bit fatty. The pancakes themselves were average, but tasted great with the cream. The prices were a bit high, but the overall experience was pleasant and the food was delicious. I would recommend this place.
