Sweet little place! Worth the walk! - Edit
This is a very small place with limited seating. Very casual. The mapo was great, and the service was fun. Great chat with the engaging and friendly young owner. A bit out of the way, but worth the walk for a budget meal. Seems to have a nice local clientele.
Read morePros: What a great place! We had the mako/goyoza combo, The owner is a really nice fellow!, They had a selection of alcoholic stuff

Mapo-Tofu heaven - Edit
This restaurant is heaven for mapo tofu lovers or those who will come to love it after coming here!
Read moreThere are several mapo tofu dishes to choose from aswell as very delicious gyoza and dessert.
I got the deluxe set which came with 4 different mapo tofu, rice, pickles and gyoza.
Everything tasted differently and delicious in its own way. The sesame one is very creamy whereas the spicy one is already quite spicy, but you can have them make it spicier if you want.
The gyoza are crunchy on the bottom and soft at the top, filled with tofu and vegetables and very juicy).
As dessert I got the tiramisu. It was delicious but I wouldn't call it tiramisu, rather 'douhua tiramisu style' or something like that. It was silken tofu drizzled with sirup and cocoa powder and an gold leaf. But I would come back to that restaurant for this dessert alone!
The staff is super friendly and the atmosphere in the restaurant is really nice and relaxed.
Pros: Very tasty mapo tofu, Variety of dishes, Very friendly staff
TSUMINAKI.MapoTofu
Thank you so much for this amazing and detailed review!
Read moreWe’re thrilled that you explored the different flavors of the deluxe set — and we love that you picked up on the creaminess of the sesame mapo and the bold kick of the spicy one. You clearly have a great palate! 😊
And thank you for your kind feedback about our tiramisu. It’s true — it’s more of a “douhua-style tiramisu” and we really appreciate your creative naming idea! Actually, we’re always looking to improve our recipes, and your comment helps us keep evolving.
We’re really happy to hear that you enjoyed not just the food but also the atmosphere and our team. It means the world to us.
We can’t wait to welcome you back for more tofu joy anytime!

An exciting mapo tofu selection - Edit
I'm always excited at the prospect of a mapo tofu but I chose a bit poorly here. I got a cheese curry mapo and it was a tasty curry sauce but lacked the flavours that I really want in my mapo tofu. I was hoping it would be a bit more fusion but it wasn't. It was still a tasty dish but just not quite what I was looking for.
Read moreMy partner got a classic mapo tofu and she was very happy with her choice. It hit all the mapo tofu notes she was looking for and she was happy that it wasn't too spicy.
We all got gyoza too and they were delicious. They were quite small and very crispy. The main thing in the filling was some nicely seasoned silken tofu. I also got a cacao tiramisu for dessert. This was fine but nothing special. It didn't have any soaked biscuits and mostly felt like silken tofu sitting in a sweet syrup with a dusting of coffee and cocoa on top. I wouldn't order this if I went again.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed feedback!
Read moreWe’re sorry the cheese curry mapo wasn’t quite what you were hoping for, but we’re really happy to hear your partner enjoyed the classic version and that you liked the gyoza! 😊
And thank you especially for your honest feedback on the tiramisu — thanks to your comment, we’ve already revised the recipe and improved it!
We hope you’ll visit us again and give the new version a try. Looking forward to welcoming you back!

Amazing! - Edit
Also another homemade and cozy small place we've eaten, all perfect! Free water like all restaurants we've visited so far and a very nice staff! We ordered the cheese curry and the mild white sesame tofu, both so delicious... The only sad point was all gyozas were already sold out at lunch time 😢 a good excuse to come back! Lol 😆
Read morePros: Staff, Food, Price
Cons: Unfortunately no gyoza, Unfortunately they don't offer dessert
TSUMINAKI.MapoTofu
Thank you so much for your lovely review!
Read moreWe’re really sorry the gyoza was sold out—it’s one of our most popular items and often runs out during lunch 💦
But we loved your positive spirit—what a great excuse to come back! 😆
We’ll be here with fresh gyoza ready for you next time. Looking forward to seeing you again!

Seriously good flavors, friendly vibes - Edit
Tsuminaki Mapo Tofu is well worth a visit, especially for the deluxe set meal that includes several tofu dishes (each with quite different flavors) served with rice and a plate of exceptionally tasty gyoza. It’d be great if they could add some green veggie options to make the meal more balanced, but that’s the only thing we missed. Everything we had was first class, and the service is very friendly and helpful, too.
Read moreHighly recommended. Enjoy!
TSUMINAKI.MapoTofu
Thank you so much for the kind and thoughtful review!
Read moreWe’re really happy you enjoyed the deluxe set and our gyoza—it means a lot to us.
And thank you also for the suggestion about green veggie dishes! We’ll definitely keep that in mind as we work on expanding the menu.
Hope to see you again next time you’re in Tokyo!

Must visit - Edit
My first time trying mapo tofu! It was so good and the gyoza were my favourite I’ve had in Japan so far. I don’t have the highest spice tolerance (embarrassing I know) so opted for the ‘recommended’ one and it was delicious

Didn't know how much I needed this - Edit
It was all just amazing. It had a bit of that izakaya atmosphere, so it was small but still roomy, and so lively. The staff were lovely and really friendly.
Read moreAnd the food... definitely my favourite so far in Tokyo, and close to my top choices of Japan so far. It was delicious, clean, light, yet still warming and satisfying. The portion sizes were perfect too: not too small, but still not large enough to make you feel over-full.

Best Tokyo vegan food! - Edit
This has been my favourite Tokyo dining experience so far and is fighting for top spot out of all of my Japan meals!
Read moreThe service is amazing, super friendly and welcoming. The food is phenomenal, with tonnes of variety and all dishes tasting beyond incredible.
The dish variety is increased further with ability to customise the spice level and add extra toppings, so really caters to all!
I can't think of anything else to say other than this place is 100% worth going to and will provide the best meal and dining experience in Tokyo!
Pros: Amazing food, Lovely staff, Great value

Delicious Mapo Tofu - Edit
Very delicious Mapo Tofu and Gyoza! The regular Mapo Tofu wasn’t too spicy, which is great if you are not used to extremely spicy food, but they have spicier options if you prefer that. I enjoyed the atmosphere and restaurant staff was very friendly as well. 🌱

One of the best meals I had on my trip to Japan. The mapo tofu is so yummy, and the gyozas are a great add-on. We unexpectedly visited this place on our last day in Tokyo, and I wish we had discovered it earlier. Highly recommend it to vegans or non-vegans. My husband is a non-vegetarian, and he really enjoyed it as well. Thank you for serving such a yummy meal!

I went twice in two days! Many places for vegan food are super empty but this is not one of those places. It is popular with locals and travelers which is great if you are solo. The owners are super nice and told me they are doing so well they have to move to a bigger place in February! Everything is so good I recommend the vegan plate to try all the different mapo dishes. Definitely a must try if you are in Japan!
