I really like the pasta here. I was craving pasta, but I was satisfied after eating the squid ink pasta. The spaghetti with Fukumimi from Masuda Farm was refreshing and delicious. The appetizer platter was generous and the pasta was tasty. Close...

I visited for lunch. The appetizer portion was huge and delicious. The service was very good. I added a main dish to my pasta lunch but it was a bit too much. I had beer as well, and the total bill for two people was around 8,000 yen. I would like to visit this restaurant again.

When making a reservation, I mentioned that we were coming from Nara and Saitama, and they prepared a menu with a Hakodate feel. Every dish was delicious and we were very satisfied. This restaurant is highly recommended when visiting Hakodate. We couldn't fully explore Hakodate on this trip, so we will definitely visit again when we come back.

I received the following at "La Cucina Ventitre" in Hakodate City: - Lunch set for 1980 yen (includes): - Assorted appetizers - Pasta to share (for 2 people) - Italian cheese and black pepper Pomodoro with fresh tomato sauce - Homemade focaccia - Dessert The cost performance and taste were excellent! I definitely want to go back when I visit Hakodate again!! Especially, I can't forget the taste of focaccia! I love bread, so I go around bread shops, but this one was really delicious! I was surprised by the generous amount of appetizers served at the beginning! (The first and second photos are of one serving for one person!) I was lacking vegetables during my trip to Hokkaido, so I was able to enjoy a nutritious meal! The pasta was also delicious, and the staff were lovely. The panna cotta dessert was also amazing! I want to go back again! #HakodateGourmet #HokkaidoGourmet #WantToConnectWithPeopleWhoLoveGourmet

I visited the Italian restaurant La Cucina Ventitre in Hokkaido for a special lunch course. The 1980 yen lunch course was amazing in terms of both quality and quantity. I was surprised at how much delicious food I could get for that price. Everything was tasty, but I forgot to take a picture of the pasta. I highly recommend checking out this place!

Lunch course for 1980 yen with an additional main dish for 1980 yen. The assorted appetizers include chicken breast salad, carrot salad, squid ink omelette, sautéed mushrooms, fried potatoes, sautéed eggplant, stuffed bell peppers, sautéed turnips, and baguette with mascarpone sauce. The variety is impressive, and each dish is served at the right temperature, whether hot or cold. The quality is high, and there is no compromise in taste. After finishing the appetizers, you might already feel full, but there's more to come. Anchovy cabbage and blowfish pasta as the second dish are a delightful combination of flavors. The focaccia bread is delicious. The oven-baked pork shoulder (additional menu item) is juicy with a strong salty taste. For dessert, you can choose between coffee gelato and espresso. The coffee gelato is sweet, so it pairs well with the espresso. Overall, the restaurant offers great value for the price with no compromise on taste. Highly recommended!

I used the restaurant for lunch. The pasta course is not fixed and is decided based on the day's ingredients. I requested a course of appetizer, pasta, main dish, dessert, and post-meal drink. The restaurant in a house has a nice atmosphere both outside and inside. We sat at a large table right after entering. They only serve Italian wines, and the refreshing taste of the white wine and its price made a good impression. The appetizer was luxurious with almost 10 different items. The pasta omelet was particularly unique and delicious. The homemade focaccia was also served, making us almost full just with that. The pasta changes daily, and I chose cabbage with anchovy sauce. The right amount of anchovy saltiness and the texture of cabbage made it delicious. The Bolognese had a rich adult taste with minced meat, which was also well-received. The pasta was cooked al dente, and everyone agreed on its firmness. The main dish was meat from Oguni Ranch. The meat was so tender and delicious, and the shallow cooking brought out the best of the meat. The sweet Amela tomatoes served with it were also delicious. For dessert, I chose panna cotta, which paired perfectly with the rich milk and caramel sauce. It was served with espresso, leaving a satisfying taste. The restaurant is located in a residential area that is hard to find without navigation. Even though some were skeptical about the choice of the place, everyone was delighted by the absolute deliciousness and excellent hospitality, making it a memorable dining experience. I definitely want to come back at night. The pasta course costs 1800 yen, and even with the main dish included, it's only 3500 yen, which is a great deal. Bravo Hakodate! It's also close to the airport. Thank you for a wonderful meal.

Hearing from an acquaintance that there is a good Italian restaurant a little away from Hakodate Station, I decided to visit. It's about a 20-minute taxi ride from the bustling downtown area. I had high expectations because a place like this in such a location must be popular. The restaurant is run by a couple who seemed to get along well, and the service was very friendly. They use plenty of local ingredients, which made the experience enjoyable. The way they cook their pasta is unique - it's firmer than al dente, which might appeal to some people a lot. If you're in Hakodate, this is a cozy place worth stopping by. Thank you for the meal.

The creativity of the combinations, the way the ingredients are cooked, and the perfect doneness of the pasta - all of it suits my taste! The owner couple is very friendly and knowledgeable. It's a wonderful restaurant where you can enjoy the seasonal ingredients of Hokkaido while chatting and learning about them.

It gives the impression that local ladies are more frequent visitors than tourists. This is evidence of high service and customer service. The prices have slightly increased due to inflation, but you can still enjoy this taste and portion for under 2,000 yen. Although the vegetable-packed appetizer plate catches your eye, the pasta is also delicious. The black pepper and cheese-filled pasta, as well as the beef ragu sauce, are also tasty. After the meal, dessert (yogurt ice cream) and coffee will leave you feeling satisfied. Thank you for the feast.

When you come to Hakodate, this is a must-visit shop. It gives the impression of being loved by locals rather than tourists. The vegetable-rich appetizers are all delicious, and the pasta, drinks, and desserts are included, making it a great value. You can also add options to the main course, but the only drawback is that I don't have room in my stomach for it. The dessert, banana gelato (summer version), was also delicious and full of flavor. The atmosphere of the restaurant and the service are excellent, and I hope it doesn't become any more popular. Thank you for the meal. I will definitely go again.

I visited this restaurant and couldn't stop thinking about it until I went to bed that night. The Italian cuisine was exquisite. The friendly wife and skillful husband created a harmonious atmosphere filled with their love for Italy. The lunch requires a reservation and costs 1870 yen for a luxurious course. The appetizer was a masterpiece, with each dish showcasing delicate cooking and a perfect balance of flavors. The eggplant tempura and mushroom dish were particularly memorable. The main courses were equally delicious, with a pasta dish highlighting the rich flavors of Italian cheese and black pepper. The local wagyu beef pasta was also mouthwatering. The dessert, caramel banana gelato, was a perfect ending to the meal. Overall, I left the restaurant feeling satisfied and with a desire to return. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Hakodate.

It was my second visit, and I was very impressed that they remembered me. This time, I was invited to try white truffles and enjoyed some fantastic dishes. The flavors of the ingredients were enhanced by the perfect balance of salt and skillful techniques. This restaurant has become one that I would highly recommend to others.

I visited this restaurant for a late lunch after 1 pm for the first time. I went with my high school son and a friend, a total of three people. The interior of the restaurant with a view of the garden had a very nice atmosphere and was a comfortable space. The appetizers were generous in portion and delicious. For the pasta, you can choose from three different daily specials. Since there were three of us, we each ordered a different one and shared to taste. We had a pasta with plenty of cheese, a pasta with sweet onions, and a pasta with tender beef - all of them were delicious. We also added a main dish to our lunch, and ordered roast beef. I was expecting thinly sliced meat but it turned out to be like a block steak, very tender and delicious. From dessert to drinks, everything was delicious. I am thinking of going back for dinner next time. I was able to encounter another wonderful restaurant in Hakodate. ❤️

When you think of Hakodate, you usually imagine seafood, but I stumbled upon a wonderful Italian restaurant in a residential area. We started with three appetizers, and the lamb meatballs were amazingly delicious. The lamb meat didn't taste like the usual Genghis Khan-style meat, as these lambs are raised on a diet of tomatoes. We were served two types of pasta, one with green chili peppers and the other with a rare variety called Paccheri. The unique chewy texture of the Paccheri combined with the sauce was surprisingly delicious. For the main course, we had beef from Oguni Ranch. It was cooked like roast beef, tender and packed with flavor. You could feel the meat fibers, and it was a dish you just wanted to keep chewing on. For dessert, we had a dolce with melon juice and ice cream. We also enjoyed sparkling, rosé, and red wine recommendations. The conversation with the owner was delightful, and we had a wonderful time.

I requested a course with a budget of 10,000 yen as they offer customizable courses in addition to the set Italian course in Hakodate. The dishes included: - Tuna with dried tomato sauce and oregano topping - Homemade focaccia with a melon-like texture - Steamed Hokuto oysters with black truffle and caviar - White asparagus from Bassano del Grappa with egg sauce - Spaghetti with karasumi and whitefish from Aomori - Linguine with Hakodate sea urchin - Roast beef of Oguni beef from Hokuto with grilled Hakodate green asparagus - Orange granita and panna cotta for dessert. The meal concluded with a glass of white or red wine. This classic Italian restaurant in Hakodate offers great value for the quality of food served.

I was able to visit this restaurant for lunch with a last-minute reservation, and it turned out to be incredibly lucky. The lunch was outstanding in terms of taste, portion size, and price, making it a flawless meal. The appetizer was impressive with a variety of colorful and delicious dishes such as carrots, green beans, mushrooms, risotto, and soup. The local celery pasta was simple but exquisite, with a vibrant color similar to Italian parsley. Despite the crowded and fast-paced lunchtime atmosphere, the strong aroma of celery and the perfect emulsion made it stand out. The final yogurt gelato was refreshing and delightful. This hidden gem is a must-visit if you ever find yourself in Hakodate.

I visited a renovated restaurant in an old Japanese house in Hakodate, my hometown, for dinner with friends. The atmosphere was cozy with warm wooden decor. We had a course meal starting with a toast with beer. The appetizers included thick-sliced prosciutto with red meat melon and cheese topped with jam, followed by eggplant in tomato sauce and homemade focaccia. The porcini mushroom sauté had a delightful aroma, and the pasta dishes were cooked perfectly al dente. One pasta dish even featured fugu, which paired well with the basil. The roast beef from a local farm was served with mushrooms and cheese. We enjoyed several glasses of wine and couldn't resist the delicious focaccia. The dessert was a panna cotta with berry herbal tea. The service was warm and attentive, and the restaurant had a relaxed, adult-friendly atmosphere. Overall, it was a delightful dining experience in a retro-style house restaurant.

Today's appetizers were plentiful again! There were so many different kinds and all of them were delicious. They really pay attention to the quality of the ingredients and serve tasty vegetables at their peak freshness. I felt like there was even more food than usual this time. Did I reach 80% full just from the appetizers? Haha. The monkfish pasta was new to me, but it was also delicious with its tender meat. The dessert was beautifully presented as well, and I left feeling completely satisfied.
