What customers say?

“ I was searching for a good pasta restaurant when I found this one. It's in a residential area, so it's not well known, and there aren't many reviews. However, people who have been there have given it some fairly positive reviews, so I decided to give it a try. After a trip to the hospital and a quick trip to the bathroom, it was almost midnight. Even though the restaurant should have been open, it still said "Closed." I wondered what was going on, and it turned out they were on a shortened business hours period. After waiting a while, a staff member arrived in a car. They said they were delivering some goods. The friendly waitress quickly opened the restaurant, and the coolness of the interior made the heat worth the wait. I was given some cold water and immediately ordered my meal. By the way, they refill the water as it runs out. As I love water, this is very much appreciated. I ordered the ladies' pasta set. It comes with a choice of pasta, a drink, a salad, and a dessert platter. The salad arrived first. As you can see in the photo, the salad consisted of lettuce, carrots, and onions, with a slice of tomato hidden among the thinly sliced ​​onions. The dressing was not overpowering and easy to eat. Next was pasta. I ordered a large portion of the Mare Tomato Seafood. The seafood included about five large clams in their shells, squid, shrimp, and scallops. The pasta was very chewy. The Mare Tomato sauce and noodles blended perfectly, making it delicious. It was slightly spicy, perhaps due to the generous amount of black pepper used. The tomato flesh was very rich, and for a moment I wondered if they used sun-dried tomatoes (although I'm not sure if they were). Finally, dessert: chocolate cake and vanilla and cherry gelato. The sauce was probably blueberry. It was my first time having cherry gelato, and it definitely tasted like cherries. The smooth texture was complemented by the crunchy, icy texture. This is what gelato is all about. It's been a while since I last had chocolate cake, but it wasn't too sweet and had such a refreshing chocolate flavor that I could have eaten two more. The atmosphere both inside and out is lovely, and the taste was impeccable. I'd like to come again soon as they apparently have a plate lunch. Thank you for the meal. ”

“ I had the daily hamburger lunch. The demi-glace sauce was delicious and I was impressed. I'll definitely come back. Thank you very much for the meal. ”

“ - I visited for lunch on a Friday. It's Italian. - The pasta of the day (with coffee) was 990 yen. It was clam vongole. - It's a little hard to find as it's in a residential area, but the orange exterior is a landmark. - The interior has high ceilings and many windows, giving it an open feel. - Parking is available for about five cars. - You can come alone or with just one other person. It seems like a good idea to come with a maximum of 3-4 people. - For private parties, please make a reservation in advance. - Cashless payment is only accepted with PayPay ”

“ Today, I had the opportunity to participate in Chao's restaurant's festival. It was a really fun time. I haven't tried any of the restaurant's food yet. If I have the chance again, I'd love to treat myself to lunch. ”

“ This is a wonderful Italian restaurant. The meat was so tender and flavorful, it was absolutely delicious! The blueberry and lemon dessert was also amazing! The warmth of the hospitality really touched my heart! I highly recommend it! ”

“ My first visit here for dinner. It's in the middle of a residential area, so it's a bit of a hidden gem. The atmosphere inside is calm and nice, although I feel like the large TV above the counter might be a bit of a mixed bag. The volume was low, but it had a strong presence... I guess that's part of what makes it a homey place. The food was good, though. It's nothing particularly noteworthy, but the flavor is comforting and it has the feel of a serious Italian restaurant. Lunch seems to be a good deal, so I recommend visiting during the day. ”
