Another cafe to check out if you want a rest from American Village. Ima Cafe has nice soft music playing in the background with an acceptable selection of food and drinks. The vibe is nice and calm with cute local art throughout the cafe. You might have to return a later due to limited seating. You can even purchase local crafts. If you are alone they will encourage you to sit at the high-chair bar. They do have some parking and free wifi. CASH ONLY and menus were in japanese only but I believe there are some pictures. The rating was not 5 because of the japanese only menus and cash only. The food was good. Overall, this cafe is definately an option to consider.

出先の近くでネットで近場のカフェを探して急遽入ったカフェでしたがとても美味しかったです!特にチーズソースが珍しくて絶品でした! ただ、店内は混んでいなかったのに注文から料理提供に30分かかってたので、そこだけもっと早めに提供するか、事前に30分かかることを教えていただきたかったです。 あと現金オンリーなのでこれから行く人はお気をつけください!

Enjoyed the salmon and avocado rice. The ambiance is quite relaxing. Parking is tight. There is additional parking another in another block after turning.

Food is delicious! My hubby had their tandoori chicken and I had the hamburger steak. I loved everything I had. My favorite was their miso soup :) Would love to go back for more. Only problem is the parking. Only two fit in front and very tricky to go in and out. I parked at a public parking a lil down the street and walked over.
