Isetan Shinjuku

Unclaimed

Visited March 2024. A famous department store known in the late 1800's for its high end kimonos. My favorite area was the rooftop.

Arguably the best depachika in Tokyo. Do yourself a favour; head straight to the basement food section and buy to your stomach’s content. Then take the elevator to the 7th floor and take the stairs to the rooftop garden and enjoy your meal. This was one of the most fun experiences I had in Tokyo. The garden is huge and popular, plenty of seats, there’s toilets and of course a dedicated smoking area. I wouldn’t say the food here is cheap but you do get what you pay for and the quality is unbelievably high. The sushi I had was generous in portion and they will happily heat up any hot foods for you.

View @ Isetan Mitsukoshi Holdings Limited. . The sprawling flagship store in Shinjuku is also cordially known as a fashion museum, thanks to its carefully curated and extensive list of luxury brands, high-fashion and everyday wear, and stylish displays. . They boast one of the largest cosmetic floors, gourmet and dining halls, and even a rooftop garden.

we visit their gourmet section and had the opportunity to taste their fresh fruit. To our delight, the experience was surprisingly enjoyable. Each piece of fruit we tried was not only sweet but also incredibly juicy, offering a burst of flavor with every bite. The freshness of the produce was evident, and it was a refreshing treat that exceeded our expectations.

Best cheese selection of Japan on B1 floor. Pair with sake and proper bread (same floor).
