Shop review (Google review)
”I received suggestions that matched my face shape and usual hair style, and the several frames I was given to choose from all fit well and were as good as I expected. He also gave me a brief description of the impression that the design would give for each frame, and I was able to choose frames that I was satisfied with based on the scene in which I would be wearing them!
This was my first time using this store, but they have a great selection of products and suggestions, and it’s a store I want to consult with when I’m not sure about glasses. I will ask again.”
I was able to make my choice with a sense of security and peace of mind due to their attentive service. I was able to choose something I was satisfied with by having all my questions answered one by one!

”I had a great experience as an American with very minimal Japanese at this location. Rei did a great job and I was fortunate that his English was really good. I enjoyed the input into what makes certain colors and frame designs fit my face best. I ended up with both a pair of glasses and sunglasses as souvenirs from Japan. I would definitely go back if I was in Tokyo.”
“I was diagnosed with a pair of spectacles that fit my face type and mold. I visited the store not knowing what kind of glasses would suit me, but I was very pleased with the careful advice he gave me and the fact that he took my personal preferences into consideration. The explanations were also very detailed and helpful.”
