SALSA is an authentic Mexican restaurant tucked away in Hiroo, Minato-ku, Tokyo, just a two-minute walk from Hiroo Station. It opened in 1999 with the mission of bringing genuine Mexican flavors to Tokyo, especially through its use of imported chilies and a careful approach to traditional preparation.
The interior is cozy yet vibrant, accommodating approximately 34 people. There are both counter spots and tables, which makes it suitable whether you come alone, with a partner, or in a small group. Mexican music fills the space, and decor tends to be colorful, reflecting the warmth and liveliness you might expect in a Mexican eatery.
On the menu, SALSITA offers a wide variety of “real” Mexican dishes — not just the tamer versions adapted for local tastes. For example, you can try sopes (thick tortillas with topped beans, chicken, cheese, etc.), mole poblano, enchiladas, tacos, and more. They also have a strong selection of tequilas and cocktails, making it a good spot for both food and drinks.
The price is moderate to upper-middle, especially for dinner. Lunch sets are more affordable. SALSITA tends to fill up at peak times, so going a bit early or on off-peak hours helps.
SALSITA is closed on Mondays. On weekdays and weekends, lunch service starts around 11:45 AM, and dinner service continues into the late evening.
All in all, SALSITA in Hiroo is a strong choice if you're craving authentic Mexican food in Tokyo — full of flavor, with a relaxed but festive atmosphere.

in the last weekランチではお得なセットメニューがあり、タコスやブリトー、エンチラーダといった定番のメキシカンが楽しめます。 この日は豚肉のカルニタスのタコスが日替わりメニューとなっており、カリッとした食感と濃厚な豚肉の旨みがたまらない逸品。 ソースの酸味が心地よいエンチラーダも美味しく、卓上のハバネロソースと合わせる事でより旨みが引き立ちました。 サラダやドリンクも付いて1,200円という価格は、広尾エリアではお得で、ディナータイムも訪れてみたいと思います。

a week agoExit Hiroo Station Exit 1, turn left towards the park, and you'll find it on the corner of the intersection. You can see the sign from afar; go down the stairs and you'll find it on B1. It's a small, cozy shop with an exotic atmosphere, run by one waitstaff member and two cooks. The lunch set is 1200 yen, includes a choice of soup or salad, a main dish, and a drink. They also have desserts and steaks. It might be a little small for men. The one-plate meal was delicious and allowed me to try a variety of things. They accept card and cash payments.

4 weeks agoI visited for lunch. It's a relatively small restaurant, so I recommend making a reservation. The menu included many dishes I'd never tried before, so I had no idea what they would taste like when I ordered, but every dish was delicious.
