FRIJOLES Tokyo Midtown Yaesu is a fast-casual Mexican eatery located in the basement level (B1F) of Tokyo Midtown Yaesu, just a short walk from Tokyo Station’s Yaesu Central Exit. The restaurant offers a bright, fresh take on Tex-Mex, focusing on burritos, tacos, and salads built with high-quality, wholesome ingredients.
From the moment you enter, it’s evident that health and customization are priorities here. Diners can choose from eleven types of fresh vegetables, three kinds of meats, two types of beans, and rice to build their meal—whether that’s a burrito, salad bowl, or tacos. Vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options are available. The ingredients are selected carefully, with an emphasis on avoiding chemical seasonings, preservatives, or artificial colors.
The operating hours are generous: FRIJOLES opens daily from 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM, with the last order around 8:45 PM. Since the food is made to order, this place is good for a quick, healthy lunch, a casual dinner, or grabbing something light while commuting.
Inside, seating is limited and cozy—there are only about 14 seats, split between counter and table spots—so it tends to be more of a grab-and-go or quick-dining kind of place rather than somewhere to linger for hours. But that suits the style: fresh, fast, flexible.
The price is also relatively moderate. Most meals fall between ¥1,000 and ¥2,000, which is reasonable for Tokyo, especially given the freshness, customizability, and healthier ingredient profile.
All in all, FRIJOLES Tokyo Midtown Yaesu is a solid option if you’re craving something Mexican but want more control over your meal (focusing on fresh veggies, lighter options, or dietary preferences). It’s ideal for folks who want convenience without sacrificing quality.

2 weeks agoAwesome mexican food in Chuo city! I keep thinking of it and wanting to go back haha. Staff speaks english for your order! If you’re a big group, this place is pretty small though.

a month agoI visited around 1:00 PM on a Saturday. There were few dine-in seats and it was pretty full, but I found a seat where I could. It was fully booked within minutes of me entering. I ordered the regular Classic Chicken Burrito (1,180 yen including tax) and Java Tea (280 yen including tax). The portion was just right for me, leaving me feeling full. Even the regular size burrito is so satisfying to stuff my mouth full of. The dough was chewy and delicious. The filling inside didn't have a strong sauce flavor, so I savored the deliciousness of the ingredients. This was my first time eating here, so I'm not sure, but I guess you can order extra sauce to suit your taste. I was asked if I wanted extra guacamole, but I declined, so the taste may have been a little lacking.

2 months agoI ordered takeout, but the customer service attitude of the staff was truly disappointing. Frankly, it was awful. It was so bad that I checked past reviews on Google Maps, and found many of them had criticized the customer service. The replies stated that improvements would be made, but it didn't seem like any improvements had been made. As a store located in a commercial facility like Midtown, I feel they should take another look at their customer service.

2 months agoI ordered a beef burrito and beef tacos. The flavor was a little light and easy to eat, but I think it would be more delicious if they added a little more lettuce and beans.

2 months agoVegetarian items so so and edible. However the beef is quite inedible. No flavor and like small pieces of tough leather. I could not chew any of the meat, incredibly tough.
