The menu didn't have it, but I researched in advance if I could eat the delicious Tsubu pasta I had last time. It seemed that Tsubu was not in stock very much, so it was uncertain if I could eat it. However, when I actually visited the restaurant, it seemed that Tsubu had arrived by chance, and they said they would make it for the first time in 2 years. Lucky me! This time, they also added shrimp and clams, and there were plenty of Tsubu in it, a generous serving. Tsubu is not a very common ingredient, usually eaten raw or boiled in soy sauce, but Tsubu pasta should be more popularized. The seaweed sauce is also delicious. The bread was homemade, with a chewy texture and free refills, it was delicious. They also gave me plenty of bread as a souvenir on my way out. The dessert included three types, and both the cheesecake and ice cream were delicious. This lunch set with great service for only 1400 yen is a steal! However, there may be a problem if too many customers show up... *The owner seems to be suffering from severe back pain at the moment, and depending on the symptoms, they may shorten their business hours or temporarily close. Please understand and cooperate.

It's been a while since I visited this restaurant near my home. I ordered pasta and a drink. The bread was refillable. Although I didn't ask for a refill, two types of bread were served, both delicious. My husband enjoyed them a lot. I ordered the shrimp tomato cream pasta, and it was filled with plenty of shrimp and squid. The cream was rich and tasty. I regret not coming here sooner. Even though I didn't choose a set menu, they served a mini salad and even gave us extra bread. And on our way out, they gave us a souvenir bread. This restaurant has amazing service! I will definitely visit again. Thank you for the meal!

Today was the first day back at work for my company. Many other businesses in the industry were closed, so we didn't have much urgent work in the afternoon. We decided to have a lunch meeting spontaneously. Since our company is small, we can be flexible with our plans. We ordered a course meal, but it wasn't very filling, so we ended up ordering additional pasta and pizza. The food was okay overall, but the fried cheese appetizer was a bit greasy and lacking in flavor. The bacon, however, was delicious. Those who weren't driving were able to enjoy unlimited alcohol, which made me a little envious. After about 3.5 hours, the lunch meeting ended and we all went our separate ways. I still had work to do until it got dark.

I visited this restaurant for the first time with my friend! The owner was very friendly and kind. Even though crab pasta wasn't on the menu that day, he made it for us with a smile. The lunch set was reasonably priced. The bread and dessert were also delicious! This is definitely a place I want to visit again.

My friend researched and I went there for the first time. The pasta was really delicious! I didn't order the lunch set, but they gave me a salad as a service! It was also very tasty! I want to go again.

One weekend, I had lunch at an Italian restaurant called "Itsu ka wa" located in Minami 9-jo Nishi 20-chome, Chuo Ward. The parking lot can fit about 2 cars next to the restaurant. The interior is of average size for an Italian restaurant, with 3 tables in the front, a small counter, and a cozy private-like space in the back. Soft Western music is playing in the background. From the menu, I opted for the "Pasta Set (1400 yen)" which seemed like a good deal compared to the individual pasta dish priced at 1000 yen. I ordered the "Spaghetti with Mozzarella Cheese and Tomato" for the pasta and chose a calorie-free "CC Lemon" as the set drink. The complimentary bread consisted of two types: a soft, fluffy, sweet white bread and a flavorful, chewy bread served warm. It was nice that they offered refills. The salad that followed was mostly leafy greens with a tangy yogurt-like dressing, possibly homemade. When the main pasta dish arrived, I took a bite and was pleasantly surprised. The noodles were of average size and cooked al dente. The tomato sauce was relatively mild, complemented by the melted cheese on top. I could taste small tomatoes and simple mozzarella cheese as the main ingredients. For dessert, I received a platter with what seemed like vanilla ice cream with caramel sauce, alongside berry sauce, cheesecake, and pound cake with a hint of liqueur. I finished with a refreshing CC Lemon drink. Different forms of service can be enjoyable, and I might visit again someday if the timing is right. Thank you for the meal.

I found a really great restaurant! I didn't want to go far, so I decided to go to Kikkalina, a restaurant nearby, for lunch on a holiday. I ordered the 1400 yen pasta set. First, I was served hot coffee and salad. The coffee was not too bitter, and even for someone like me who doesn't drink coffee much, it was easy to drink. I ordered the seafood tomato pasta, and it was full of seafood with a rich umami flavor. The pasta was cooked just the way I like it, a little firm. It was so delicious. It might feel a little small for men, but with the unlimited bread and the slightly rich flavor of the pasta, you will be satisfied. The dessert at the end had just the right amount, and both the ice cream and cheesecake were delicious, almost like from a specialty shop. The chef was very polite and attentive, which was great. It was a shame that they only accepted cash payment, but I will definitely go back without worrying about it. I forgot to take a picture of the pasta, so I only have a photo of the dessert.

My parents kept recommending the "Tsubu Pasta" so much that it seemed to be a limited-time offer, not on this month's menu. But when my mother kept mentioning to the waiter, "That was delicious," he said, "It's on next month's menu, but I have some in stock so I can make it for you." I gave it a shot and it paid off! The waiter even said, "I'll try it for my staff meal too." There were plenty of tsubu (small clams) in it, and the seaweed sauce was incredibly tasty. Now I understand why my parents recommend it so much. If you ever feel like having it again, make sure to come in May!!!

I happened to come across this restaurant and had lunch with three friends. The staff was friendly and the restaurant was clean. We had the lunch course, and both the Bolognese I ordered and the February pasta (uni and seasonal vegetables) my friends ordered were delicious. The Bolognese had a demi-glace sauce with large chunks of meat. The uni pasta was especially tasty when dipped in the sauce with bread. The highlight was the dessert, the ice cream. It was homemade and the most delicious ice cream I've ever had! I made a reservation through the website and got a quick response. It was a stress-free, delicious, and lovely restaurant experience.

In January 2019, I visited an Italian restaurant located at Nishi 20, Minami 9 Jo, Chuo-ku, Sapporo. The recommended monthly pasta for January was "Spaghetti with sea urchin and small shrimp," so I decided to try it. The restaurant has parking space for two cars next to it. The interior has a simple atmosphere. The lunch menu offers pasta a la carte for 900 yen including homemade bread, or a pasta course for 1300 yen including salad, homemade bread, pasta, and a selection of homemade desserts. Other a la carte options are also available. I opted for the pasta course and chose the recommended pasta for January, "Spaghetti with sea urchin and small shrimp." The meal started with a crisp salad followed by two types of homemade bread. The spaghetti dish was decent with a good amount of sea urchin, although it didn't exceed expectations. The dessert consisted of homemade milk gelato, cheesecake, and pound cake, which were all delicious. I look forward to trying more pasta dishes from their regular menu next time. Thank you for the meal. In February 2019, I revisited the restaurant to try a different pasta dish. The pasta of the month was "Spaghetti with homemade additive-free cod roe and cod." Although I was curious about this dish, I decided to go for the pasta course which included the recommended "Hokkaido Wagyu beef and 5 types of mushroom Bolognese" and the popular "Small shrimp in tomato cream sauce with lobster flavor." The salad was similar to the previous visit and still delicious. The Bolognese had a strong mushroom flavor and was enjoyable. The tomato cream sauce with shrimp was rich and flavorful, complemented well by the pasta's texture and thickness. The dessert and coffee were the same as before. According to their website, the chef has experience training in Italy and the restaurant does not use any food additives or chemical seasonings in their dishes. The source of ingredients used is also disclosed on the website and updated daily. Dinner is by reservation only, with a minimum of four people required. Thank you for the meal.

A few years ago, I used this place for lunch. It had a sophisticated cafe vibe, but I also noticed the thoughtfulness towards children. I chose pasta and enjoyed unlimited freshly baked bread in the morning, along with dessert and a drink, all for a good value. They also offer individual items if you prefer. It's a great choice for a leisurely lunch.

Lunch set includes salad, pasta, and a set for 1400 yen. You can get free refills on bread. I ordered seafood pasta, which was cooked al dente and had a rich flavor. My friend ordered shrimp cream sauce pasta and the dessert looked delicious too! Both pasta and dessert, along with bread, are available for the same price. The food was tasty and the atmosphere was pleasant. I would definitely come back again!

The cost performance is extremely good! The taste is also excellent!

Everything is delicious❗

It's a very good restaurant. It's easy to go with children and the homemade bread is delicious. I am very satisfied with the lunch.

A lively lunch spot where housewives and moms gather. The prices are affordable and the pasta was delicious. The bread that you can refill was also very tasty. When I went to pay, I noticed a small child sleeping under the register. I wonder if it was the owner's child or a customer's child that they were looking after. It's amazing that the child was sleeping on the kitchen floor! The voices of the ladies were very lively.

I enjoyed a high-level Italian dining experience with excellent service, good value for money, and delicious food. The name of the restaurant, Kickarina, was a bit off-putting, but I decided to give it a try for lunch. The homemade bread made with 100% Hokkaido wheat flour was delicious, with a crisp saltiness and a dense, moist texture. The walnut and mixed nuts bread was also tasty. I even took some home as a souvenir. The pasta with red wine-braised beef from the local Hokkaido breed was rich and flavorful, with a stretchy cheese topping and a hint of black pepper. The beef was tender and plentiful, making the dish even more satisfying. The pasta was cooked al dente, with a good texture and a generous amount of sauce. The lunch set was a great deal, with free-flowing bread and a choice of red or white wine. The female staff were friendly, and the owner had a pleasant smile. The bright and clean interior was comfortable, with a variety of seating options. Overall, I would rate the restaurant 4.1 out of 5 for its taste, service, atmosphere, value for money, and drinks. Located in Sapporo, it may be a bit challenging to find, but it's worth a visit for a drink in the future.

I visited for lunch on Sunday, November 15th. The location is easy to find with the big advertisement. I arrived at 11:40, thinking they opened at 11:30, but they actually open at 11. The parking lot was full, but I managed to find a spot after asking the staff. The interior was narrow with about 7-8 closely spaced tables. We ordered the lunch pasta set for 1200 yen, which included salad, bread, dessert, and a drink. I had the seafood tomato spaghetti and my companion had the seafood peperoncino. The tomato spaghetti had a good amount of seafood and flavor, while the peperoncino was flavorful with a good amount of garlic and spice. The salad was colorful with Italian dressing and mozzarella cheese, the bread was average, and the dessert included gelato-like vanilla ice cream, lemon-flavored cheesecake, and dry fruit cake with berry and caramel sauce. Overall, the food was good but the portion of pasta was small. I hope the restaurant continues to do well despite the challenges.

It is a simple and cozy little shop. While many shops have their last order at 2:30, this one stays open late, which is great. The young owner who runs the place alone is refreshing and leaves a good impression. I tried the "daily pasta lunch set" for 1200 yen, which includes salad, homemade bread, pasta, dessert, and a drink. I chose the "Hokkaido chicken and mushroom tomato sauce" pasta, which had a nice chewy texture and the sauce coated it well. The deep dish made it easy to eat. The bread was light and fluffy, and you can have seconds. The salad had a refreshing acidity in the dressing. The dessert was milk gelato and lemon cake. The gelato had a gentle sweetness and smooth texture. Served on a cool plate, it was visually appealing. And coffee to finish. I'm satisfied, glad I came.
