Salone Group's Italian restaurant in Osaka. I used to frequent various restaurants in the group, but recently I haven't been going as much. However, I decided to visit the one Osaka restaurant that I hadn't been to. It's located a 18-minute walk from Osaka Station, near Watanabe Bridge Station. It's on the first floor of a building, with an exterior that resembles a castle and a wonderful interior. The Salone Group is known for its excellent customer service at all locations. Today, three staff members took turns explaining the dishes and engaging with us. The menu included: Foie Gras Catalana with Espresso Sauce, Zucchini Salad with Basil and Bergamot Granita, Fried Sardines with Orange Sabayon, Pork Loin with Fig and Treviso, Peach and Scallop Foderini, Rabbit Ragout with Edamame and Black Olives, Seafood Kachukko with Crab, Eel, Mussels, and Octopus, Kobe Beef Sirloin with Ripe Plum, Apricot Mushroom, and Purple Yam, Spaghetti Pomodoro, Corn and Pineapple, Creme d'Anjou with Melon and Pava, and Small Desserts. They also provided us with an illustrated menu, which was a nice touch. Salone was beautiful and delicious, and I definitely recommend trying their dishes at least once.

In the past, I found my favorite Italian restaurant in Aichi Prefecture and used to go there all the time. So, trying a new Italian restaurant after a long time, everything from the entrance, guidance, and inside the restaurant made me feel like "this place is different." First, the chef came to our table, greeted us properly even though we were new customers! He even came to see us off when we left, and in that aspect too, I thought, "I will definitely come back!" Then, the food 😊 Starting from the finger food, I was impressed. The Kobe beef and truffle with refill mayo sandwiched between rye bread - it didn't feel like just one dish! The satisfaction and amazement I felt from tasting so many dishes were incredible! The surprises and excitement continued with the second dish, where I felt like I was experiencing the taste of the sea! I couldn't express it well, but it was the first time I had such a feeling while eating. The main dish was rabbit meat, in line with spring and Easter! The rolled rabbit meat was so tender and had a good texture, it was delicious. I had never eaten rabbit meat before as I had a pet rabbit for 8 years, but this was my first time trying it. Lastly, the dessert plate - the cake that resembled a shortcake was delicious. The white chocolate coating around it was crispy and tasty. And what surprised me even more was that, when I looked at the back of the menu, there was a "Happy birthday" message! It was blank at first! With such a surprise from the restaurant, I truly felt that coming here was a great decision. Chef Kishimoto is in Tokyo, so I couldn't meet him this time, but I look forward to meeting him next time. This Italian restaurant, which I would definitely visit if I lived in Osaka (and am determined to visit even though I live in Aichi), was a delightful experience.

If the price was around 10,000 yen, I would have expected a rating of 3.3. However, the actual price was 25,000 yen, so I thought it was a bit high, but still reasonable. They serve pasta with a unique Genovese sauce and celery gelato with unusual flavors. The taste is something you may not have experienced before in a high-end restaurant, and it's a bit challenging to say it's exceptionally delicious. One thing that bothered me was the staff's explanation of the dishes. One young staff member had poor articulation, making it difficult to understand what they were saying. Since they charge a service fee, they should provide better training. The most satisfying part was the presentation of the dishes, which were bright and cute, making it enjoyable to look at.

I visited after several years. It was just us on the day, almost like a private reservation... I remember it being quite crowded when I came before... Is this also a sign of the times changing? The food was delicious. The wine pairings were also great with a variety to choose from. The portion sizes may seem small, but there are many different dishes to try, so I ended up drinking quite a bit... haha

I don't go to Italian courses often, so I was looking forward to this restaurant☺︎ I think I made a reservation about a week ago and was able to go. I chose a course around 10,000 yen with beef as the main dish. The main meat dish was delicious, of course, but my favorite dish today was the seafood soup parcel that I added for an extra 1,900 yen. The flavor of the soup was amazing, with plenty of sea urchin, shellfish, and white fish, and the olives were also delicious. I don't know if this soup is always served, but I want to drink this soup again (((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o))). I also loved the goat cheese and the chocolate at the end as the tea sweet. The additional menu I ordered was especially delicious, so I even thought that people who didn't order it were missing out, haha. But when a restaurant has a memorable dish like this, it makes you want to come back again. Thank you for the feast ===========

The attention to detail in the presentation, thoughtfulness, and creativity in the various dishes was truly impressive. Each unique dish, served on original and cute plates, was a delight to the senses. I couldn't help but wonder how such dishes were created, as they were truly one-of-a-kind. Although I couldn't enjoy wine due to work in the afternoon, each dish seemed to be calling out for a perfect wine pairing. I ended up enjoying the meal with sparkling water, but I imagine it would have been even more delicious with wine. The reasonably priced lunch menu is highly recommended for a special time spent with loved ones. Why not consider visiting this place for a memorable dining experience?

I visited the restaurant on a weekday at 6pm for a reservation on a special occasion. The first 30 minutes were just for us, in a private setting. I don't eat much, so I opted for the seasonal short course menu with wine pairing. (I regret not taking a picture of the wine pairing...) It was amazing! I want to go back again! The food, wine, and service were all impeccable. The short course was filling and the chef even came to greet us at the beginning and say goodbye at the end. I can't wait to go back!

I used to think there was a nice shop down the street, but I never went because it seemed a bit high-end. However, I remembered it recently and decided to give it a try. The conclusion: it was amazing. The food was delicious, easy to eat without feeling heavy, and paired perfectly with the wine. The prices were more reasonable than I expected based on the appearance of the place from the outside. I definitely want to go back again.

The day after getting excited at Summer Sonic and forgetting my age, I went to Quinto Quarto, a high-end luxury Italian restaurant. The head chef, Kishimoto, was working that day and his friendly personality was very likable. I opted for a generous 90g of spaghetti, and the rest of the dishes were satisfying enough to fill me up.

I had an eight-course tasting menu today. The dishes included Catalana di fegato grasso, Insalata di trottola di mare Zucchine e bergamotto, Arrosto di KAWACHI anatra e fichi, Fedelini, Stufato di agnello con caponata, Spaghetti alla salsa di pomodoro, Baba e gelato al fior di latte, and Piccola pasticceria, Caffè o Tè. Everything was delicious!

[Tabelog Award 2023 Bronze][Top 100 Italian Restaurants in the West 2023] My partner, who always introduces me to new restaurants, came to Kansai for a visit. I always enjoy going out with them. This time, during my partner's business in Osaka, I decided to do something on my own. I chose to visit Quinto Quarto, a high-end Italian restaurant in Nakanoshima, Osaka, part of the Salone Group. Although the main branch of Salone is in Yokohama, I have yet to visit. I have always wanted to go, but the high price has been a deterrent, especially since I tend to choose French cuisine if I am going to spend that much. However, when I saw the lunch prices here, it seemed manageable at around 10,000 yen. So, I made a reservation and headed over. The restaurant was not as spacious as I had imagined, but it was full. Many elegantly dressed women were dining, creating a lovely atmosphere. I was the only one dining alone, and I realized my outfit was the most casual. While dining alone didn't bother me, I'll be more mindful of my attire next time. Now, for the course I ordered, it included: - Foie Gras Catalana - Insalata of Turban Shell - Nokoriduck with Fig and Treviso - Fedelini with Yellow Peach and Scallop - Roasted Beef Fillet with Green Papaya and Salsa Verde - Spaghetti Pomodoro Baba with Melon and Creme Soignee In one word, it was a fantastic meal. Each dish showcased the ingredients beautifully, bringing out their potential in a remarkable way. It felt like each dish was simply highlighting the quality of the ingredients, fitting perfectly within the framework of Italian cuisine. Some standout dishes were: - The Turban Shell Insalata, which featured lightly blanched turban shell with a zucchini sauce and vinegar, topped with bergamot, offering a refreshing and texturally pleasing dish. - The Nokoriduck, with a sauce made from duck heart and liver, balanced with Amazon cocoa spice, providing a flavorful yet not overpowering taste. - The Fedelini, a cold pasta dish made with prosciutto broth, was a unique and delightful experience. - The Roasted Beef Fillet, paired with green papaya, Salsa Verde, and Nepalese Sichuan pepper, offered a unique and delicious flavor profile. - The Spaghetti Pomodoro Baba was one of the best pomodoros I've ever had, rich and flavorful with a subtle acidity, cooked with various vegetables to enhance its deep umami taste. It was truly a wonderful dining experience. The staff's service was excellent, and the chef even came out to greet me before and after the meal, showing their dedication. I am now determined to visit the main branch in Yokohama.

The duck and steak were delicious, the bread was of high quality and fluffy, the pasta, desserts were all satisfying and tasty. The ambiance was calm, and even though it was daytime, the fact that the restaurant was full was amazing! It's a popular place where you'll think the staff are nice.

I was brought here as a surprise for my birthday. The food was incredibly delicious, with each dish highlighting the flavor of the simple ingredients rather than being overly complicated. The pasta was especially tasty, with a sauce made by simmering vegetables for 14 hours. I was surprised when they brought out the Catalana as an appetizer. Despite the variety of dishes, I found myself able to eat everything. The chef even came out to greet us at the start and end of the course, making it feel like a special experience. I had a great time enjoying the delicious food and the pleasant atmosphere. It seems like they change their course menu every month, so I would love to come back and try more of their offerings.

I visited this Italian restaurant in Osaka, which is quite famous. It was my second visit, as I had also been there for my birthday last time. The menu changes monthly, and each dish is beautifully presented and tastes amazing. Since the menu changes every month, it's a place I would love to visit every month if my budget allows. Thank you for the delicious meal!

Lunch course for 8470 yen with orange juice. I visited alone and the service was outstanding. The chef came to greet me at the beginning and also gave me a handwritten menu at the end. There were many satisfying aspects other than the food. The dishes were so delicious that I couldn't believe they were priced so reasonably.

I made a reservation to have lunch alone at the Italian restaurant "Quinto Canto" in Nakanoshima. I opted for the 8-course Degustazione course for 7,850 yen (excluding tax) and chose the Piccola wine pairing for 7,000 yen. The dishes included truffle croquettes, swordtip squid salad, and a white, soft bread with a Q-shaped branding. The Hiroshima Highland Black Beef black beer stew, lamb stew, and spaghetti or cheese selection were also delicious. I particularly enjoyed the Copain de Fromages cheese platter with three types of cheese for 1,800 yen. The blue cheese and Parmigiano-Reggiano were exceptionally tasty. I thought about buying some from the Wakayama shop right away if I had no plans afterwards. It would be nice to enjoy the Copain de Fromages cheese with a bottle of wine. I also tried the Verbena granita with peach and vanilla for 300 yen. The Grappa Espresso had quite an effect. Although I ended up spending more than expected due to drinks, the encounter with the Copain de Fromages cheese was worth it.

I have been to this restaurant almost 40 times. I have been coming here almost every month for nearly 3 and a half years. The wine pairing is wonderful. I love Burgundy wines and spend about 4 million yen a year on them, but I only drink Italian wines at this restaurant. The wines themselves are delicious, and they always serve wines that make the food taste even better. This month, they started using glasses from NUDE, a Turkish company, and I found that the wine tasted just as good as in Zalto glasses. When I go on a date with a woman, she is always impressed by the service, atmosphere, and especially the food and wine. I recently went to a Michelin two-star French restaurant in Kanazawa, but it doesn't even compare. The interior has changed this month, and it now looks like an Italian restaurant in New York. I'm already looking forward to next month.

This year marks the 10th anniversary, and I had the lunch course. The dishes were so stylish! Even the cutlery had the restaurant's logo, which was nice. Also, the hand-drawn illustrated menu was cute. The menu included: Truffle croquettes, Sword tip squid salad with coriander, Hiroshima Prefecture Takahara Black Beef black beer stew with edamame fritters and mashed potatoes, Sharaletti with octopus and scallops, Lamb stew with corn, Amazon cocoa, Salsapomodoro, Verbena granita with peach and vanilla, and petit fours. The croquettes were fragrant and hot, the edamame mashed potatoes and fritters were delicious. The Spaghetti Pomodoro was a specialty, and choosing 90g of pasta was a great option with plenty of sauce. The dessert was a delicious vanilla kudzu mochi with almond semifreddo. The drink was a non-alcoholic with edible flower syrup, sweet but tasty. Every dish was truly delicious, and I had a wonderful time. Thank you for the meal!

I wanted to eat authentic Italian cuisine, and this place was the perfect choice. We tried almost all the dishes, including special menu items. They were able to accommodate my dining companion's dietary restrictions without any issues, which was greatly appreciated. The hospitality was exceptional, and we were more satisfied here than at any other restaurant we've been to. The plate selections were wonderful, and all the drinks, including non-alcoholic options, were delicious. It was a memorable experience.

When I wanted to have Italian food in Osaka, I chose this place that I had always wanted to visit. The lunch is reasonably priced, yet you receive excellent service and can have a great time. The dishes all have the restaurant's logo on them, making everything look cohesive and amazing. The staff explain each dish carefully. The chef even came to greet us at the beginning and end, and it was nice to hear various stories. It's wonderful that they give you an illustrated menu of the day. I was truly impressed by the level of service provided at such a reasonable price for lunch. I would love to visit this restaurant again.
