Sandoitchi, a Dallas-based Japanese sandwich and matcha cafe, will open its first Houston location in the Heights.
What is it?
Sandoitchi is a modern take on the classic Japanese konbini: part café, part convenience store. Sandoitchi serves soft, fluffy stacked sandwiches, as well as matcha drinks.
The Houston location has a design concept “somewhere between a temple and a courtyard” and is inspired by Kyoto, Japan, according to Sandoitchi’s website.
It features an oval roof, translucent curtains and color-block painting of striped red, plum and blue on the exterior.

The interior will feature terrazzo counters, birch millwork, sliding doors that open to the courtyard and red tiled walls and floors in the restrooms.
Sandoitchi will feature unique red tile-covered bathrooms, optimal for taking photos, according to the website. Courtesy SandoitchiWhat’s on the menu?
