Shinjuku Japanese Deli

Nestled in the city’s hustle and bustle, this convenience store redefines "on-the-go living" with its exquisite ingenuity and thoughtful curation. Unlike ordinary outlets, every corner here holds subtle surprises—sleek, minimalist shelves display a curated mix of artisanal snacks, premium beverages, and practical essentials, seamlessly blending functionality with taste. The quality of its offerings truly stands out: freshly brewed specialty coffee boasts a rich, aromatic profile that rivals boutique cafes; ready-to-eat meals are crafted with meticulous care—juicy teriyaki chicken rice bowls with perfectly seasoned grains, crisp salad boxes tossed in house-made dressings, and flaky pastries still warm from the oven. Even grab-and-go snacks feature unique flavor combinations, adding a touch

The mapo tofu (vegetarian) lunch is good 😌 I think they’ve changed the recipe over time but I had it today January 2026 and the portion of tofu is great, spiciness level is a good spicy but not overwhelming (some may say mild other may say medium), and I’m satisfied for the price!

Walked through this store after hanging out with a friend. I got myself a spam rice ball and a hot tea, which was free, because they said they ran out of cup lids. That was really nice of them. Free tea in the city is practically impossible! Definitely will be back to check out what else the store has

This place has such cute outdoor decor like the lantern I took a pic of. It's pretty small with about 4 aisles, but has a lot of Asian snacks. They have a special where you can get a free riceball if you buy a sushi roll in the evening! Definitely stop by if you're in the area and need to stock up on some unique chips like the BBQ ribs Lays my friend got! It tastes like actual smoked ribs with no weird aftertaste. <3

The staff were great and the shop is very nice. Leaving this review so the owners are aware of their onigiri balls and who is making them. There were no more than half a teaspoons worth of filling in today’s balls and the rice had an overpowering vinegar taste.
