YOTSUYA/ICHIGAYA: Meson Cervantes... Tasty Spanish at a Reasonable price!

Recently moved to Yotsuya and boss said this Spanish restaurant located above the Cervantes Institute had great lunches and it was actually subsidized by the Spaniards.  Worth a try~.

Fairly spacious

Lunch Menu begins at 1,000yen with a soup, main, tea and dessert (click pic to enlarge).

Vegetable base soup with mushrooms and some clams.

Ice Tea or Hot Tea... went with Ice.

Mari went with the Spanish meatballs in a very tasty tomato sauce... a must try!



You can pick Rice or Bread with your meal...

Small but a very nice bread.... chewy.

My Crab Potato cakes... not oily at all.  Kinda reminded of some crab we had at Robuchon in Roppongi Hills.  Flavor wasn't light... veeery rich tasty taste.  How do I describe this...


As tiny as this dessert was we had a bite and lost interest.  


It was an easy restaurant... spacious, high ceilings, nice Spanish tunes, good service and great food.  If you are free on Sunday evenings there is live entertainment!
