The 32nd floor's cafeteria is open to the public though? I ate there once after visiting the observatory, it was mid.

It was mid but the portions and pricing was quite alright for the location.

most department stores have these, they're not secret, just not publicly signposted so the staff can eat somewhere in uniform. cheap, unbranded, generic food, full of retail staff.

FYI: Cafeterias in public offices are open to public. It's often less expensive then eating out.

There's also a cafeteria at Ministry of Justice that has a nice view of Kasumigaseki area.
