512 Cafe & Grill
Powered by Google
Tucked between Nogizaka and Roppongi, 512 CAFE & GRILL occupies a garden-wrapped building with floor-to-ceiling windows and a sun-drenched terrace. Interiors shift from light and breezy at lunch to warm and amber-lit for evening wine. Famous for award-winning fluffy pancakes made to order, the kitchen also turns out Italian-inflected mains — steaks from Yamagata A5 beef, pasta, and wood-fired pizza. An equally strong cocktail and wine program makes it work as a daytime cafe, afternoon brunch spot, or after-dark wine bar.
