I used it for a greeting. There was also a sommelier who made wonderful recommendations based on our preferences and dishes, allowing us to have a truly blissful time. The food was described as home-cooked, but it was so delicious that we couldn't help but wonder, whose home is this? The pasta, in particular, was absolutely fantastic!

I can't help but say "Wow!" The variety of appetizers in the course is delightful. From pasta to main course to dessert, you can feel the attention to detail and it's so exciting. This is a recommended restaurant for a slightly luxurious lunch for a date, anniversary, or as a reward for yourself.

The other day, I visited the Italian restaurant Carrozzo in Higobashi! I had been curious about this place for a while, and recently Higobashi has become a bit of a hidden gem with its growing number of dining options. The restaurant had a spacious layout with plenty of room between tables, giving it a luxurious feel. I opted for the course menu, which included a surprising 12 different appetizers! Each appetizer was delicious, and I found myself enjoying them with my drinks. I also tried two different types of pasta and was very satisfied with the fish and meat mains. Of course, the dessert was also delicious. I ended up having a whole bottle of champagne and two bottles of red wine, and it was a truly satisfying meal. Thank you for the wonderful meal! It was delicious!

The other day, I visited Carrozzeria for the first time in a long time. I had the Chef's Omakase Course which included: 1. Seasonal Appetizer 1 2. Seasonal Appetizer 2 3. Seasonal Appetizer 3 4. Today's Fish Dish 5. Today's Meat Dish 6. Pasta 1 7. Pasta 2 8. Dessert and Coffee I don't have the menu list and the explanations, so I can't remember everything. Here are some of the things I remember and notes: - The Zeporini, which was like a fluffy fried bread, had Hamanako seaweed, Amarela tomato, Izumi water eggplant, and prosciutto. - The luxurious salad-like dish had natural striped jack, radish, perilla, and myoga. - I really liked the soup with various vegetables like potatoes, new onions, and new potatoes. - The dish with Akashi sea bream, snap peas, and baby cabbage was delicious, but I needed more bread. - The spicy sauce on the meat was delicious. - The dish with squid ink and firefly squid was healthy and tasty. - Even the tiramisu had a healthy taste. Before my memory fades, I wanted to write a review. Sorry for the messy list of delicious words. I had a wonderful time enjoying the delicious food that clearly showed the chef's dedication and the warm and friendly service from the staff. I hope some of the deliciousness comes through in the photos! Thank you for the meal!

In the bustling area of Higobashi, I visited Carrozzo near Utsubo Park this time. The restaurant has a nice mix of counter and table seats, and the bright interior is inviting. I made a reservation for the lunch course (6,500 yen including tax) and visited. The course consisted of 6 dishes, from appetizers to dessert. Looking at the drink menu and seeing Peroni made me happy. Here is a summary of each dish: 1. Assorted appetizers: A variety of dishes to enjoy different flavors. Each bite offers something salty or sweet, allowing you to savor various tastes. 2. Delicious fish (forgot the type): The fish was fatty, with a rich flavor and firm texture. It was delicious, and I regret not remembering the type. 3. Squid ink pasta: The dish had vegetables and a soup-like broth, with a gentle, slightly Japanese flavor. 4. Shirako pasta: The texture of the fried onions contrasted beautifully with the creamy shirako, creating a delicious combination. 5. Mita beef: I was delighted to find beef on the menu, possibly from the thigh. The accompanying sauce was also delicious. 6. Figs and grapes tiramisu: The grapes used were of high quality, although even the staff had forgotten where they were from. For drinks, I had Peroni, sparkling Lugana, and two glasses of wine. It was a satisfying lunch, and I realized the importance of taking notes to remember the details. I look forward to returning for a hearty night of drinking next time!

This day, there were no other customers besides us, so it was a private booking. The space was very relaxing and the food was delicious. There was also a wide selection of wines. The dishes had quite a variety, including two types of pasta. Pasta lovers would be thrilled. I will definitely come back as they change their menu with the seasons.

My husband and I went to the Italian restaurant Carrozzi in Honmachi for our anniversary lunch! It was a bit challenging to choose a restaurant because many places are closed on Sundays and some are temporarily closed due to the pandemic. I found this restaurant near Jinnai Park in Honmachi, which has a rating of 3.63 on Tabelog and is known for its special lunch course. We decided to splurge a bit and went for the 6,500 yen per person lunch course. The highlight of the meal was the assorted appetizers with 12 carefully crafted dishes. Each dish showed the chef's dedication and passion for cooking. The course included both meat and fish dishes, as well as two types of pasta, offering a satisfying amount of food. My husband found it a bit lacking in quantity, but I was completely satisfied. We got so engrossed in the food that we lost track of time and ended up rushing towards the end. I recommend going when you have plenty of time to spare. The location in front of Jinnai Park is lovely, especially in the spring, and the restaurant is clean and the food is delicious. What impressed me the most was the attentive staff who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The taste is more suited for adults, so it may not be ideal for children. There were older couples enjoying lunch with drinks, as well as younger groups attracted by the visually appealing assorted appetizers. It seems to be a restaurant loved by people of all ages and genders!

We had a private event at this place. The appetizers with vegetables were delicious, and the sweet potato and lotus root in blood orange juice, served with arrabbiata sauce, yellowtail, and prosciutto were colorful and tasty. There were 12 types of antipasto, all beautifully presented. The focaccia was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, very delicious. The main dishes, both fish and meat, were also very tasty. The risotto had the right amount of bite and flavor. Both pasta dishes, one with squid ink and the other with shirako, were delicious. Dessert included cake and ice cream, but I forgot to take a picture because I couldn't wait to dig in. The wines were chosen for us and all were delicious. I left the restaurant feeling satisfied and looking forward to coming back again.

We visited a renowned Italian restaurant located in a quiet area close to the beautiful park. We arrived at 12:30 on a weekday and the place was bustling with a full house. We were glad we made a reservation. The staff's cheerful and polite service, combined with a warm and pleasant atmosphere, made our experience enjoyable. We sat at the counter overlooking the chef's cooking and had the Standard Lunch set (2,500 yen including tax). Here are some highlights: ⭐︎ Specialty - Assorted 12 types of appetizers: visually stunning and gently seasoned dishes that pleased the palate. Carrot souffle, burdock simmered in red wine, pumpkin steamed with vanilla beans, and a variety of vegetable cooking methods showcased impressive creativity. ⭐︎ Homemade focaccia: fine texture and light, with a gentle flavor that paired well with the oil. ⭐︎ Spaghetti with whitebait and sakura shrimp Genovese: a generous amount of ingredients with a subtle hint of sea aroma. Although it's Genovese, the flavor was understated, highlighting the quality of the ingredients. ⭐︎ Apple and black tea cake, cream cheese gelato: impeccable dessert quality that didn't disappoint. ⭐︎ Hot coffee. PayPay payment was accepted. It's great to see a restaurant doing well with their lunch offerings lately.

The appetizer was beautiful, but the taste was just average. However, from then on, I was completely satisfied with the deliciousness of the dessert. The best part was being able to share the dishes with my companion. Thanks to that, we were able to try two types of pasta, fish, and meat dishes. The fish dish was surprisingly large, and the sauce was exquisite. The cake for dessert was delicious, with both the chocolate brownie and matcha flavors complementing each other perfectly. The coffee-flavored ice cream next to it was also fragrant and delightful. The cutlery was lovely, and the dessert spoon and fork were adorable. The glass of wine and sparkling wine were also delicious. Thank you for the meal. I would love to come back again!

I was curious about this restaurant because Mitsuboshi-san was highly praised on YouTube. I made a reservation just in case and visited. It was the right decision. Not right at the opening, but soon after, it was full. So, I decided to enjoy the Carlo Rossi lunch. Oh my... I was speechless. It was seriously delicious. The 12 appetizers were all carefully made, with delicate flavors. When we ordered different pastas for two people, they split them in half so we could enjoy both. I chose pork for the main dish, and the side dishes were amazing. I wonder where they source their ingredients from. The grilled pork was also perfectly seasoned. And the desserts... need I say more? It seems like the place is run by individuals, so the service may take a little time. But this is Honmachi, a city for the rich, where people with rich hearts live, so let's enjoy a luxurious time. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

The lunch set at Cacarozo Ranch for 5000 yen plus 300 yen was chosen with the option of shrimp and salmon cream sauce Taliatelle for an additional 300 yen. The main dish was charcoal-grilled pork. First, a chilled pumpkin soup was served. Although I wanted to try the Vichyssoise, this soup was quite good as well. Next, there were 15 types of appetizers. Most of them were vegetables with a sour taste, and even though I'm not a fan of pickles, I found many of them delicious. The portion size was quite large. The pasta was so delicious that even just having the pasta for lunch would be satisfying. The pasta was truly exquisite. The rich cream and cheese paired perfectly with the plump shrimp and salty salmon. The Taliatelle had a nice texture as well. It was quite rich, so towards the end, it became a bit overwhelming. The main dish of pork was tender and juicy! I regret that I had to eat it while already feeling quite full. The dessert was decent. I would like to visit again next time for just the pasta lunch.

Tabelog Rating: 3.69 (2021/09/17) Tabelog Italian Top 100 WEST 2021 Michelin Bib Gourmand Visited around 1 pm. It was my first visit. It was a weekday but almost full. Standard lunch 2,500 yen ◾️ Specialty Appetizer 12 kinds assortment - Broccoli, winter melon, sweet potato, eggplant, burdock, carrot, cucumber, lotus root, pumpkin, okra, potato, mushrooms ◾️ Today's pasta - Chicken mince and winter melon, komatsuna in tomato sauce - Carbonara pasta We shared the pasta. ◾️ Bread ◾️ Dolce, coffee I enjoyed the various vegetables and quiche in the appetizer. There were some delicious and elaborate items as well as some average ones. Overall, it was good. The appetizer was good, but the pasta left a lasting impression with its taste. It's nice when the pasta is delicious. It was so good that I finished it quickly and felt a bit unsatisfied with the shared portion (which was not small). I would like to try a larger portion. Considering all this, I think it's good enough for a business lunch. You can also add dessert, etc. It's easy to visit for reasonably priced and delicious pasta. Thank you for the meal.

Located in Honmachi, near Utsubo Park, is Carrozzeria, a restaurant recommended by Michelin and Pibuguruman, offering a unique Italian cuisine experience. I ordered the lunch course for 3500 yen, which included an appetizer platter, pasta, and dessert. If you opt for the 5000 yen course, a main dish is included. The restaurant kindly divides the pasta or main dish for sharing if there are two people dining. The appetizer platter consisted of 15 different dishes beautifully presented in a square glass dish. Each dish was a small portion of colorful and flavorful appetizers, such as broccoli with garlic oil, carrot soufflé with black olive paste, and grilled eggplant seasoned with oregano vinegar. The main dishes were equally impressive, with options like homemade sausage spaghetti and smoked salmon and shrimp cream sauce tagliatelle. The dessert, featuring matcha cake and fig, was a perfect ending to the meal. The restaurant's interior is clean and elegant, with a feminine touch that extends to the presentation of the dishes. The variety and quality of the appetizers left a lasting impression, and I am looking forward to trying their dinner courses in the future. I will definitely be returning to Carrozzeria!

I came to this restaurant to celebrate my friend's birthday! Despite the current situation, we unexpectedly had the whole place to ourselves, which felt very luxurious. The first dish of prosciutto, mozzarella, and fig was amazing! Each dish that followed was beautifully presented and delicious. I was so excited to have found this wonderful restaurant. Although I couldn't drink alcohol this time, I would love to come back for a more relaxed visit, perhaps for a date. Thank you so much!

Today, I visited Caloroso near Tenjin Park♪ It's only a 5-minute walk from Honmachi Station☆ Upon arrival, I had to wait for about 15 minutes as the restaurant was full. I ordered the Business Lunch set for 1200 yen, which included a plate of vegetables, today's pasta, minestrone soup, and spaghetti with bacon tomato sauce and eggplant on the side. The minestrone soup was made with a variety of beans and had a gentle and pleasing taste. The portion size was just right. The bread was lightly toasted and delicious. The spaghetti with bacon tomato sauce was flavorful with a nice balance of umami and a hint of acidity. Despite the price increase in April, the meal was still satisfying. I also appreciated the cold towel provided.

Tabelog 3.69 Italian Top 100 Selected Store ♡ Weekday Standard Course 2,500 yen! Comes with dessert and coffee, very satisfying ♡ There are 3 types of courses, ⚪ Business lunch 1,200 yen (one plate of vegetables, pasta) ⚫ Standard course 2,500 yen (12 appetizers, pasta, dessert, coffee) ⚪ Caloroso lunch 4,000 yen (↑ + α, main fish or meat) The standard course seems like a good deal ♡ All 12 appetizers were delicious!! There are also explanations of the dishes! After choosing one pasta from 5 types per person, the staff asked, "Would you like to share the pasta? I will bring it on separate plates." We were like, "Can you do that?!" and definitely requested it! As a result, we enjoyed two pasta flavors in a nice amount each. The matcha smoothie dessert... seriously amazing sweets ♡♡♡♡ Most of all, what I thought was the most wonderful was that they brought the dishes based on the speed we were eating ( ; ; ) Even though there should have been a time limit for the table, due to a thunderstorm, we received the kind words, "Please take your time." Thank you very much! It was a feast! ===========

The restaurant is located near the Jingu Park, with a lovely atmosphere surrounded by the scent of trees. The interior is simple and stylish, with a cute little rabbit ornament welcoming you at the entrance. The lunch menu offers a Business Lunch set with a vegetable soup and pasta. The soup was smooth and slightly sweet, with a hint of fried burdock's fragrance. The pasta with bacon and new onions in tomato sauce was served with fresh water eggplant, providing a refreshing crunch. The staff, including a female server and a serious-looking chef, were friendly and attentive. Overall, the food was delicious and well-prepared, showcasing the flavors of the vegetables. It's a great value for the quality of the food. Next time, I'll try the specialty dish with wine in hand!

I visited Caloroso in Honmachi, which had caught my attention near my workplace. It was full when I arrived, but I got a seat after 7 minutes. I ordered the Business Lunch (1,200 yen) which included a Caloroso salad, homemade focaccia, and a pasta dish. The salad was delicious with just the right amount of salt, bringing out the sweetness of the vegetables. The lettuce, snow peas, turnips, okra, and tomatoes were all fresh and had a subtle elegance. The focaccia was light yet chewy with a crispy exterior, perfect for dipping in pasta sauce. Unfortunately, the pasta of the day was sold out, so I chose the Bolognese with vegetables instead. The texture of the vegetables and the juiciness of the meat were excellent, and the al dente pasta was a delight to chew. I wish I had time to try the cheesecake dessert, but overall, the high quality of the food matched my expectations for this place.

Near Yoyogi Park, there is a charming Italian restaurant that truly warms the heart. The atmosphere, food, and service are all welcoming. I was captivated by the 12 varieties of appetizers and visited with a friend. During a weekday lunch, we chose the 3500 yen lunch set while watching people pass by through the window. It was a big hit! This popular restaurant is best to call ahead for a reservation, but there are also counter seats available, so it's possible to enjoy a quick pasta lunch alone by slightly adjusting the timing. The lunch set offers a choice of 3 courses, and we opted for the appetizer, pasta, main dish, and dessert selection. There are 5 pasta options and a choice between fish or meat for the main dish, beautifully presented for sharing. Isn't it amazing that this weekday lunch set, including all these dishes, is only 3500 yen tax included? First, the 12 varieties of appetizers were meticulously prepared. Fresh vegetables, small sweet potatoes, and warm omelettes were all delicious. It felt like spring, and each dish was so tasty. The pasta choices included a Genovese with shirasu and tomatoes, and a cream sauce with Parma ham, mushrooms, and spring chrysanthemum. The shirasu intertwined with the thin pasta, creating a delightful Genovese flavor. The cream sauce with mushrooms and chrysanthemum had an adult taste. Both dishes were elegantly shared and served. I couldn't help but smile. Next was the Ehime hamo cheese bake, with the cheese wrapping the crispy hamo elegantly. The Mount Fuji foothill Mangen pork sauté was sweet and flavorful. The bitterness of the vegetables and the sweet tomatoes added a wonderful balance. I was deeply moved by the dishes prepared with care and love. The service was excellent, and each dish reflected the heart of the chef. The strawberry cake for dessert had a lovely acidity. Although not flashy, for me, this type of restaurant is truly special. My friend and I both agreed that it was a hit Italian restaurant, and we were both healed and satisfied. I love Carrozzeria. Thank you for the treat!
