Saryo Tsujiri Ginza

Saryo Tsujiri Ginza is the Tokyo outpost of Tsujiri, a matcha tea house tracing its origins to Kyoto in 1860, serving ceremonial-grade Uji matcha in a range of dessert and light meal preparations from a basement location inside the Ginza Six shopping complex. The signature dish is the matcha parfait, a carefully layered composition of matcha ice cream, sweetened red bean paste, chewy mochi, and a crisp wafer, built to be eaten in careful cross-sections to combine all the textures and flavours in each bite. A matcha soft-serve version offers a simpler, quicker treat, while a warabi mochi set — jelly-like mochi dusted in soybean flour — provides a more traditional Japanese sweets option for guests wanting something less elaborate. Beyond desserts, the café also serves a full brunch menu incorporating matcha into savoury pairings, extending the tea house concept into a more complete meal rather than a dessert-only stop. The dining room character is calm, refined, and photogenic, styled with clean modern lines that suit its location inside one of Ginza's most upscale shopping destinations, drawing a mix of dessert enthusiasts and shoppers taking a break. There is no alcohol served; the entire beverage focus is on ceremonial-grade matcha prepared in various forms. No reservations are required, though the parfait's popularity, especially on social media, can mean a short wait for seating during weekend afternoons.
