Tokyo Saryo

amazing experience — booked a reservation online about a month before our trip :) such friendly staff, my sis and i learned a lot about tea. everything was delicious. would highly highly recommend to anybody in tokyo looking for a quiet thing to do

Amazing single origin green tea experience. This 9 seater counter table affords you the opportunity to enjoy watching your tea being brewed by a very personable and pleasant barista/tea master. I chose the set menu where I could select 2 teas from a choice of six (ranging from sweet and fragrant to bitter and umami) and then ordered wagashi (red bean "yokan"). The tea master told me that the owner of this tea company has a background in architecture/design(?) and that he came up with the tea brewing apparatus which looks like a coffee drip but tweaked for brewing green tea. First two cups were brewed at 70 degrees, second two cups at 85 degrees and the last cup was with genmai (roast rice grains) which gave the tea a toasty and slightly sweet flavor. I really enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend this place (it is a bit of a walk and after passing innumerable combini and apartment complexes I was wondering whether Google had wandered off again or if my mobile data had decided to take a nap). Will definitely return for the excellent tea and great service experience!

Great experience watching the brewing (3 rounds for each type), and tasting the different teas. tea leaves and cups can be found at LOFT for similar price

Excellent place to drink tea and also to buy tea to take home. They devised their own tea dripping contraption that is elegantly designed.

Really nice little shop. The tea is delicious, and the ochadzuke is really interesting and has a deep tea flavour.

This was a great experience and one of the highlights of my trip, I would recommend it if you like tea regardless of how knowledgeable you are. Seats are reservation only, and though I was able to get a seat a couple weeks in advance all 7 or so other seats were taken on the day of and it’s only open one day a week, so I’d recommend booking further in advance to be sure. The space had a cool minimal setup with everyone seated around where the tea was prepared in a slow-drip method unique to the store (as far as I know at least). Even though I was there alone it was nice to do the tasting around others. It felt separate enough that people who went in pairs or solo could have their own private experience, but I also ended up chatting with the person next to me. You’re given 6 cards with information about teas from different regions and flavor profiles, then you choose 2 of those teas and a snack to go along with it. The barista was very friendly and answered questions throughout the multiple steeps. Everything was tasty, and I think any of the 6 teas would have been good choices but I’m glad that I went with 2 that had very different flavors.

love the design of the store. A new experience in green tea with a numbers of selection. can have 5 cups of different level of green tea and one dessert. will come next time for other choices of the green tea

Beatiful place. Interior is absolutely Sublime. Tea oriented place. Very delicious. Unique experience.
