Welcome to Roji Cafe

“ I was looking for a restaurant that was open at the end of the year to meet a friend who was visiting home, so I stopped by for lunch. It's less than a 10-minute walk from JR Wakayama Station, but the exterior looks like an ordinary residential building, so I didn't notice it at first and just walked right past it. The entrance is narrow and there's no parking. I had the Asian plate lunch, and my friend had the daily lunch special (three fried shrimp!), and the portions were amazing for the price! The seasoning was a little strong, but there was plenty of raw vegetables, so it was well-balanced. The kotatsu seating on the first floor and other features make for a mysterious space that feels both exciting and relaxing, like visiting the home of a grandmother who loves Asia. I use Wakayama Station often, so I'd like to conquer all of their lunch options! ”

“ The specialty steak bowl was meaty and very filling with plenty of vegetables. The gapao dish my companion ordered was also delicious, with just the right amount of spiciness and aroma. The problem was the dumpling set, which was a grill-your-own style, but the heat source was an open flame using solid fuel. I didn't say anything at the time, but grilling food directly over a solid fuel flame is something you should never do, as the methanol contained in the fuel could cause blindness if it gets on the food. I think they should serve food using charcoal briquettes or charcoal briquettes, which are easy to ignite, or a mini stove. Also, the entrance was always open, probably for ventilation, so my feet were very cold. The food was very delicious, but using an open flame with solid fuel is extremely dangerous (although it may have been okay before), so I think this should be improved. ”

“ I visited this restaurant after being recommended by an acquaintance. I went there at 1pm on a weekday, so I was able to enter without waiting. If you like retro atmosphere, you will surely enjoy this space. The food is hearty and healthy. ”

“ Gorgeous food, staff and atmosphere! Come here every time I come to Wakayama! ”

“ We went just after they opened at 12:00, but it was already bustling with customers as it was lunchtime. I ordered the fried chicken lunch, which was very filling and delicious. The restaurant has the feel of a renovated old Japanese house, but it is decorated in a Chinese style, which somehow makes you feel nostalgic. We were shown to an enclosed area that looked like a former closet, where we were able to dine in a very relaxed atmosphere. People may have different opinions about the atmosphere, but I liked it. ”

“ This is my favorite shop. I've been there quite a few times. What's great about it is the hidden-away atmosphere. I get excited as soon as I open the door. And especially in times like these, Logi Cafe's international cuisine is a lifesaver. They have a wide selection of dishes from countries I'd like to visit someday. Of course, everything tastes amazing. It's so much fun to order a lot and share! I also want to draw your attention to their sense of presentation and plating. No matter what food you order, it's always presented beautifully. After enjoying a leisurely meal while looking out at the garden, I can't help but check out everything on display in the shop. Everything is so cute. Please come and experience something out of the ordinary at Logi Cafe! ”

“ R6.7 Tanaka-cho 5-chome, Wakayama City This cafe is located in an old Japanese-style house across from the east side of Misono Shopping Street. There's no parking, but PayPay is accepted. The interior has an Asian-inspired tatami space with one five-person table and three two-person tables, each with floor cushions. Outside, there's an Asian-style garden with a historic wooden deck, where two cats apparently live. Logi's special! A generous portion! It's topped with a 250g steak! Large Steak Bowl (with soup and salad) ¥1,980 + tax (¥2,178 including tax) This truly large bowl is filled with rice, a 250g steak, and a generous salad, creating a luxurious and impressive appearance. It also comes with a separate serving of seaweed soup. The 250g steak was perfectly cooked to a medium-well, making it tender and perfectly paired with the refreshing garlic and onion sauce. The onions grilled in the same sauce underneath the steak are also a great garnish. The seaweed soup is also generous and delicious. This is a hearty, satisfying meal. ”

“ The shop has a relaxing atmosphere reminiscent of a grandparent's home, and is filled with a variety of slightly mysterious yet cute items. It was a satisfying lunch with plenty of vegetables and a hearty portion. ”
