I came to Maizuru for a trip, and of course, the seafood is delicious, but I found this stylish place and made a reservation! It's quite a walk from the station, haha. The restaurant looks stylish from the outside. The interior also has paintings by famous artists and the walls are like a cave, creating a nice atmosphere. There were many pasta options for lunch, so I had a hard time choosing. I tried the salmon with tomato sauce pasta with sour cream on top, which was unusual! At first, you can enjoy just the tomato sauce, and then mix in the cream for a different taste. The set came with an acai drink. I thought acai was rare, so I ordered it. It was delicious. My partner had the roast beef peperoncino. The large roast beef had a satisfying texture. We changed the salad to an appetizer platter, so we were full. The pudding for sale also looked delicious, and some people were buying it as a souvenir. Since they said the dry ice would last for up to 2 hours, we had to give up on buying it. If you're looking for a non-seafood lunch in Maizuru, be sure to visit this place!

I visited a famous restaurant in Maizuru that is always crowded on weekends and requires reservations. This time, I went on a weekday. I ordered the lunch set limited to 15 servings. It came with chilled potato soup, salad, bread, pasta, a selection of cakes, and tea (I forgot to take a picture). The food was consistently delicious, especially the tomato cream pasta with its chewy noodles. The only downside was that the portion sizes were a bit small. There was only one bread roll per person, which left me wanting more. Personally, I thought it would be nice if they offered a menu option without sweets and increased the amount of pasta for around 1300 yen. I ended up leaving more than half of the cake selection uneaten. The atmosphere was very nice, but the chairs at the counter were uncomfortable and made my backside sore. It was also difficult to get off the chair, and I almost hurt myself. Despite these minor issues, I would recommend this restaurant to those who enjoy girls' gatherings because the food is very tasty.

I thought it might be crowded during the hot summer holiday, but I was able to get in smoothly to this quite popular restaurant. I ordered the limited pasta for lunch and added an appetizer for an extra 200 yen. The appetizer was of such high quality and quantity that it didn't feel like just an additional 200 yen. I was almost full after that. The pasta was chewy and the sauce was just right, delicious! The combination with the bread was also tasty, and I was very satisfied. I was already full, so I had an iced coffee after the meal and couldn't ask for anything more. Oh, but the dessert also looked delicious and I regret not trying it. Thank you for the meal!

There was a wonderful restaurant in Nishimaizuru. Although it is called a bistro, they serve Italian dishes during the day. They have a variety of cakes, so it might be nice to visit for just a coffee break. The fresh pasta was delicate and delicious. Japanese pasta is even better than what you can have in Italy. I had beef tendon bolognese and my 80-year-old mother had seafood basil pasta, and she kept saying how delicious it was! The bread was average. The Earl Grey cream puff on display looked delicious, so we ordered one more. It was also delicately flavored and tasty. It's not too far to walk from the station, but having a car in Maizuru is definitely convenient. Maizuru has restaurants that can compete with those in the city, or even surpass them.

On the final day of my trip to Yamagata, Sendai, and Hokkaido, we celebrated a little anniversary with Italian food. We searched for a restaurant and found one that was about to close, but they welcomed us in. We were the only customers there. The menu had many delicious options, so we ordered a variety of dishes. The vegetable caponata was exquisite, the pickles were tasty, and the carbonara pasta was delicious with fresh pasta. The pizza was thin and perfectly cooked, and although the meat dish was sold out, everything we tried was fantastic. We couldn't stay long, but I definitely want to go back and enjoy a leisurely meal at this highly recommended restaurant.

I found this cafe while looking for a cafe in Kyoto! I went with a friend and it was a lovely hidden gem cafe. The food was delicious and the atmosphere inside was great, so I want to go again! ✨

The restaurant is always busy, so I recommend making a reservation. The pudding was delicious, and the course meal was very tasty. The room was partitioned off, so we could relax. I definitely want to go back again!

I visited an Italian restaurant in Maizuru for lunch. The soup was Minestrone, filled with lots of chunky vegetables. For the appetizer, I had a platter with leaf salad, orange-flavored sweet potatoes, crispy baguette, red rock highland egg frittata, anchovy broccoli, carrot and burdock root kinpira, 6 vegetable caponata, and homemade roast beef. You can enjoy a variety of appetizers in small portions. The baguette was of the soft type. For pasta, I chose the Smoked Pork Belly and Autumn Eggplant Aglio Olio Arrabbiata. The main dish options included pork loin oven-grilled with apple and grain mustard sauce, and Amberjack and potato olive caper bake caught in Maizuru. For dessert, I chose Mont Blanc Tarte from the showcase. The bitterness of the coffee paired well with the Mont Blanc.

"I want to participate in the stamp rally for "Maizuru Kaiji Curry" and that's why I visited the restaurant. Due to the influence of the coronavirus last year, I couldn't find the right timing to visit, so it's been a while. The parking lot can accommodate a few cars in front of the shop and also a minute's walk away, so you can visit by car with peace of mind. At this time of year, hand sanitization and non-contact temperature measurement by staff are required when entering the shop. Inside the shop, it feels like being in a cave, with table seats separated by walls for a sense of privacy. This time, I sat at the counter, which was separated from the neighboring table by an acrylic partition. The menu we ordered was the main attraction, the Kaiji Curry for my husband. Cup soup + leaf salad + curry + drink (he chose iced coffee). The curry had a homemade taste with a good level of spiciness for my husband. Inside the roux were chunks of potatoes and tender beef tendons, and although it looked like a small portion, it was surprisingly satisfying. I had the pasta lunch. Cup soup + for an additional 200 yen, I switched the leaf salad to an appetizer + bread + pasta with homemade roast beef + drink. - The cup soup was a bit small, but the creamy soup with bacon and mushrooms had a nice flavor. - The appetizer included leaf salad, glazed carrots, pickles, frittata, anchovy broccoli, purple cabbage labneh, 6-vegetable caponata, and homemade roast beef, a generous selection for an extra 200 yen. Personally, I might prefer the anchovy broccoli to have a bit more punch. The pickles had a nice tangy taste. - The roast beef peperoncino pasta had plenty of roast beef on top of the pasta. The slightly sweet roast beef sauce and the hotness of the peperoncino blended well. At 1400 yen (plus 200 yen for the appetizer), it's a great deal! I chose from the regular menu this time, but I'd like to try the limited-time menu next time. The desserts also looked delicious in the showcase next to the register (there used to be a separate entrance), with some seasonal items as well... Unfortunately, I didn't have room in my stomach this time to try them! I will definitely visit again. Thank you for the meal (*^^*) On a side note... except for the pasta, the size of the plates seemed a bit small compared to the volume of the food. Personally, I think using slightly larger plates could enhance the sense of luxury (and value for money). However, the tables are not very large, and if you want to maintain a casual atmosphere, this size might be just right. It's nice to have separate restrooms for men and women. The restroom also had a cave-like atmosphere (^ . ^)"

I visited after a long time to try the popular Sea Self Curry! Since it's a popular place, I made a same-day reservation by phone right after they opened. The stylish interior looks like a cave. The staff provides excellent service. I ordered the Sea Self Curry with a 200 yen upgrade to change the appetizer. My partner had the Salmon and Broccoli Risotto. The Sea Self Curry is a rich curry. The spices are strong and linger until the end, it was really delicious. There is also a decent amount of salt, which I thought would be good after physical labor. Each appetizer was delicious, so I've decided to always change to the appetizer in the future. The risotto had a strong sea aroma, and the umami and saltiness were superb! If they offered a large serving, I would want to have a large serving of the risotto (^^;)

✔️Kyoto Maizuru✔️Ameiro Bistro Alru I visited this restaurant for lunch on a weekday, which is popular among locals for its Italian cuisine. I heard about it and arrived just in time for the lunch opening (there were already 3 groups waiting... it was really popular). The exterior had a stylish appearance, and the interior had a well-designed counter and tables, wine bottles displayed, and hand-written menus, giving it a DIY feel! I originally wanted to try their seasonal menu item "Roast Beef Bowl with Akaiwa Plateau Onsen Egg," but unfortunately, it was not available, so I reluctantly ordered the "Homemade Roast Beef Peperoncino (¥1400)." It looked and tasted great! I wish it was a little cheaper, but I appreciated that it came with salad, bread, soup, and a drink! Thank you for the meal! ------------------------------------------------- ◆Genre: Italian, Cafe ◆Food Blog Rating: 3.25 ◆Lunch Budget: ¥1000-1999 ◆Nearest Station: 10 minutes walk from JR Nishi-Maizuru Station

I went out for a trip with ZZ-R. For lunch, we went to this place that I had posted about suddenly the day before. Good morning. This day, we set out with three cars and arrived at our destination quickly. Inside the restaurant, we looked at the menu right away. Let's order the beef sinew bolognese. First, the salad set for the accompanying person was served, followed by the soup that comes with individual orders. The accompanying person ordered thick-cut bacon and ripe tomato with eggplant, as well as the homemade roast beef peperoncino. Finally, I ordered the beef sinew bolognese, but the meat sauce was sold out, so I couldn't order it. Instead, I ordered the spaghetti napoletana that was not on the menu. They kindly accommodated my request, so I am grateful. Thank you for the meal!

I went to lunch based on a friend's recommendation. The pasta was made with fresh noodles and had a chewy texture, it was delicious! I would like to go back again. When entering the restaurant, they also checked our temperature on our foreheads, so they are taking measures against COVID-19. I bought a cake from the neighboring cake shop as a souvenir and it was also delicious. I would like to go back for dinner as well.

Fashionable Italian restaurant in Maizuru. This place mainly serves pasta dishes made with local ingredients. The prices are reasonable for a little luxury. I tried the bouillabaisse-style pasta with buri-kama, and just the aroma alone was enough to tell how delicious it was (lol). The rich broth really stood out. The attached cake shop also looked delicious.

The cake was described in a fun and detailed manner, with a unique and diverse range of flavors.

It's stylish and I like that it has semi-private seating.
