Gyoda, Saitama, Japan｜Mustard Seed

Restaurant in old train carriages. They open from 11:30 to 2:30 for lunch and again at night for dinner. We've only ever been at lunch time - you can choose from about seven meals at lunch time. If you're getting pasta you choose the texture of the pasta too. Really fun place to visit with lots of retro paraphernalia inside.

This is a stylish Western restaurant located in a train car, about 25 minutes walk from Fukiage Station. I visited on Saturday at 17:35 without a reservation and was seated smoothly. The lunch menu can be ordered until 19:00, so I ordered a pasta set that included an appetizer, salad with tortillas, and dessert. It is recommended for families or those who want to visit as a reward, as you can eat in an unusual space.

I visited by car. It is a shop with a good atmosphere that remodeled a railway car into a shop. The parking lot is spread out in front of the store, and it is large enough to fit about 15 cars, and the stylish exterior is eye-catching. There is also a terrace seat outside, so it seems that you can also eat outside. However, one of the selling points here is probably the interior of the train that has been remodeled. Before visiting, I had imagined that the store was full of railway goods, but I was betrayed in a good way. Certainly there are railroad goods and photos, but it's just one of the interiors. American goods are lined up so that the railway fits in naturally, and it is wrapped in a very stylish atmosphere. This restaurant is recommended not only for families, but also for couples. For the dishes, we ordered "Italian Tsukemen Pasta", "Beef Tongue Stew" and "Quattro Pizza with 4 Kinds of Cheese". The taste was all high quality and very delicious! ! "Italian Tsukemen Pasta" is a new sensation that makes you feel as if you are eating ramen, even though it is pasta. However, the ingredients are plenty of pasta, the noodles are chewy, and the satisfaction is high. The soup is light and salty and is excellent. If you eat the tomato on top of the pasta while dipping it in the soup, the taste will gradually change, and the scent of fresh tomatoes will faintly escape from your nose. "Beef tongue stew" had a very creamy and gentle taste of fresh cream. Moreover, the meat is so runny that you can eat it without using your teeth. It has a rich flavor and is easy to eat. This is also a recommended dish! Finally, "Quattro pizza with 4 kinds of cheese" was my favorite. The rich cheese flavor spreads throughout your tongue. The pizza itself was quite thin, but it didn't drip too much when I lifted it, and the ingredients didn't fall off, so it was easy to eat. For cheese lovers, this is a must-try dish. If there is one thing to be careful of, this product has a slightly strong blue cheese. Therefore, if you don't like blue cheese, you may want to consider other pizzas. However, this blue cheese is also a good accent, and I was very satisfied! Payment seems to be cash and Paypay only, cards are not supported. The price is about 1,000 yen per item, and the set is about 1,500 to 2,000 yen. Overall, this is a restaurant that can be used for dates and family meals, and the food is excellent. The price is not so high, so you can enjoy it easily. Please stop by when you come to Gyoda City!
