After a long time, I visited "Emilia", a cozy open-air Italian restaurant. I started with a glass of red wine, recommended by the staff, which was really nice. The restaurant had few customers, mostly young couples, which made me admire how far off the beaten path this place was. For starters, I had the "Tripe in Tomato Sauce", which was surprisingly elegant with white tripe in a tomato-based sauce. For the main course, I had the "Tortellini", which was quite filling. Dining alone as an elderly person felt a bit lonely, but it was a lovely afternoon.

I found out that the pasta restaurant in Nogizaka, La Folletina, is in the same group as Daniella in Shimokitazawa. It's convenient that you can order a la carte for lunch. It's rare to find places where you can do that. Also, it's nice that they bring out the pasta already divided onto plates. It's a bit far from the station, but it's delicious so maybe that's why it was fully booked.

I had some errands to run in Omotesando, so I searched for a trendy Italian restaurant nearby and found this place. I visited on a Saturday and was able to get in without waiting in line. Although I was told over the phone that they don't take reservations, I found out later that they were accepting reservations from other callers, which was a bit disappointing, so I have deducted points for service. I tried the Bolognese and Panna Cotta, both of which were delicious and left me very satisfied. I would definitely consider revisiting this Italian restaurant as it comes highly recommended. They also offer a lunch menu on Saturdays, with the Bolognese priced at around 1100 yen, making it quite reasonable!

I used the counter seats for lunch. I ordered the carbonara hand-made pasta. I also ordered the black truffle for an additional fee. The taste was very delicious, with the hand-made pasta being chewy and the cream sauce coating it well. Every bite was filled with rich cream sauce, spreading throughout my mouth each time I ate. The bacon in the pasta was very fragrant and meaty, adding a delicious oiliness to it. The overall dish was full of flavor. The black truffle was also really delicious! I definitely want to visit this restaurant again.

This is my first visit. I tried the weekly lunch special "Tagliatelle with cream sauce, fresh fish and Treviso" (1200 yen including tax, additional 100 yen for iced coffee). The tagliatelle pasta is slightly wider than somen noodles, about half the width of udon noodles. The cream sauce coats the pasta well. I could taste the richness of the white fish. The crunchy texture and bitterness of the Treviso added a nice accent. I visited just before 2:30 pm and they accommodated me even though they close at 3 pm. There was only one other group of customers. When I asked for a spoon, it was brought to me promptly.

It's been a while since I visited Emilia. I often used it for lunch, but it was my first time at night! I didn't have much time, so I ate quickly, but the pasta was all really delicious and unforgettable. They generously sprinkled truffles on top, it was so luxurious! Next time, I want to take my time and enjoy starting from the appetizers.

Before shopping, we had a light meal because the station was quite far and we were going to take a taxi. We searched for a place to eat around here and found this restaurant. We each chose from the lunch menu - I had Tagliatelle Bolognese and my partner had Tortelloni stuffed with ricotta cheese and spinach. We were so hungry that I ended up eating my dish before taking a picture of it. It was delicious and I forgot to take a picture until the end. I would like to visit again. Thank you for the meal.

As I was exploring the Sendagaya area, I noticed that there were more restaurants that had become popular, with Emilia being one of them. It is located between Kitasando Station and Gaienmae Station. This area is filled with apparel shops, curry restaurants, and cozy places for a small group to have drinks. I had visited before for lunch and it was delicious. This time, I made a reservation for lunch and visited again. Due to the scorching heat, most customers were seated indoors. There are tables for groups and counter seats near the kitchen. I ordered the Gorgonzola sauce gnocchi, which I had been eyeing on the menu. While reading through the menu, I noticed someone preparing a salad at the counter. They were tossing leafy greens with dressing and seasonings, tasting it, and making adjustments. I decided to order a green salad and watched as it was carefully prepared in front of me. The salad was served on a cute plate and tasted light and refreshing. Next, the gnocchi arrived with a cheese sauce, which was mild and easy to eat. The gnocchi had a soft texture with a hint of potato flavor, complemented by the flavorful Gorgonzola sauce. It was an impactful dish that I enjoyed thoroughly. I thought it would pair well with white wine. Overall, it was a delightful dining experience.

If you walk, it takes a little over 10 minutes. Parasols, tables, and chairs are lined up on the side of the road, and local residents with pets are seen. The cuisine is classic Italian, which may be considered rare these days. The wine selection is mainly Italian, without any particular standout options. The truffle pasta seems to be popular, but the aroma is lacking. The prices are reasonable, so it's understandable.

Before going to watch baseball, I wanted to eat something delicious, so I searched on the train and found a highly rated and delicious looking place, so I decided to visit! When I arrived, there were a few groups waiting in line, but we were able to get in quickly! After that, more and more people kept coming, so it seems like reservations are necessary. They specialize in hand-made pasta and the prices were reasonable. It was packed with customers, so it must be a popular place!

About 8 years ago, I visited this restaurant when I came to see a circus. I decided to revisit this place specifically to try the "Gnocchi Gorgonzola Sauce with Potatoes" dish that I had last time. It was just as delicious as I remembered, and I was very glad I came back. Also, I noticed that when you order a dish like Carpaccio, they automatically divide it into portions for each person, so you don't have to share plates. This makes it very convenient. Overall, this restaurant made me want to come back with my family next time.

〈Taste 3.6〉I had the pasta with Karasumi. It had a nice smoky flavor that was just right. The taste was not too strong, so even those who are not fans of Karasumi can enjoy it. 〈Service 2.9〉The service was very polite. However, I was a bit bothered by the fact that the staff were constantly being criticized within earshot of the customers. I just wanted to enjoy my meal in peace. 〈Cleanliness 3.5〉The restaurant was clean.

In conclusion, this restaurant is so delicious that it will make you go "Gnocchi, what?!" just like everyone says. The gnocchi is really tasty! It was so good that I forgot to take a picture! The cold corn soup is also great. The Caprese salad is a bit tough, so I think it would be even better if you ordered it from the nearby MuMu MOZZARELLA Tokyo Mozzarella Factory.

Today, I had a fun girls' night out with my friends at this restaurant that my gourmet friend had been eyeing for years. It's located in a quiet area about a 10-minute walk from Kitasando Station. We started with a toast with Italian beer, which is made by the first craft beer maker in Italy. - The appetizer platter had about 5 types of dishes, but in reality, there were about 7 and we were very satisfied. It's recommended to share one plate among everyone. - We tried two kinds of sashimi carpaccio (red seabream and yellowtail). - We also had Kumamoto melon and prosciutto with stracciatella, which was a great combination. - The cod roe cordellini pasta was a must-try! The handmade pasta was chewy and delicious. - The Umbriacelli pasta with Yamato pork tomato ragu sauce was a first-time experience for us. It was thick like udon noodles and very chewy, which we really enjoyed. - The Amelie-style herb-flavored baby chicken thigh was tender and delicious. It was a bit small when shared among three people, but the restaurant adjusted the portion size for us. They also portioned the dishes for the number of people dining, which was a nice service. They also offer lunch, which seems like a great deal! Thank you for the delicious meal!

Emilia is located a 12-minute walk from Sendagaya Station. I came across this restaurant on Instagram when I was thinking about wanting to eat delicious karasumi pasta but didn't want to go to a formal place. I had been wanting to go for about 2 years, and finally decided to visit with my friends. I noticed that it had become one of the top 100 restaurants! We made a reservation through TableCheck for a la carte dining. There were three of us girls. We ordered: - Assorted appetizers (5 types) - Melon and prosciutto with stracciatella cheese - Carpaccio of two types of fresh fish - Cordellini pasta with karasumi - Umbriacelli pasta with Yamato pork ragu - Amelie-style baby chicken thigh with colorful vegetables The appetizer plate actually had 7 types of dishes instead of 5, which was a pleasant surprise. The melon and prosciutto dish was beautifully presented with stracciatella cheese. The karasumi pasta that I had been wanting to try was delicious, with plenty of karasumi on top. The Umbriacelli pasta was thick and paired well with the Yamato pork ragu. The baby chicken thigh was tender and flavorful, served with colorful vegetables. We visited at 6 pm on a Saturday, and by the time we left, the restaurant was full. I started with cider and then switched to a bottle of wine. The wine selection was extensive, making it a great place for wine lovers. They also serve lunch, so I would like to visit again for that. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

A friend recommended this restaurant that is located within a 15-minute walk from places like the National Stadium and Sendagaya, near Ron Herman. We ordered the assorted appetizers and the standout dish of prosciutto with melon, served with stracciatella cheese. It was a perfect combination and we were all very happy. The amberjack and yellowtail carpaccio was served with plenty of vegetables. For pasta, we decided on the sea urchin pasta, and also tried the hand-cut pasta called Umbrielle with yamato pork ragu sauce as recommended by the staff. The sea urchin pasta was delicious with a perfect balance of acidity and saltiness from the tomatoes. The Umbrielle pasta was chewy like udon noodles and very tasty. For the main dish, we had the Amelie-style chicken thigh, which was like an Italian teriyaki dish. It was delicious when shredded and eaten with the vegetables. The prices were reasonable for the quality of food we received. It was quite crowded, so making a reservation is recommended. A beloved restaurant by the locals.

I heard there was a delicious gnocchi restaurant and decided to visit. I don't have many memories of eating gnocchi in my life. Even when I did, it wasn't very tasty, so I considered it something I hadn't really tried before. The highly recommended gnocchi restaurant was located in a quiet alley with a stylish terrace that didn't feel like Japan. I ordered the carpaccio, gorgonzola gnocchi, main meat dish, and panna cotta. Everything was served with great attention to detail, which was much appreciated. The carpaccio had thick and delicious fish. And the gnocchi...what was that!? It was so chewy and had a refined potato-like texture. It paired perfectly with the gorgonzola. I would love to eat it again and again. The meat dish was refreshing with a hint of balsamic vinegar and quite filling. On a side note, I loved how the mashed potatoes were placed under the meat. The panna cotta was the best I've ever had. It was also chewy and the caramel topping was just right. I was surprised by how delicious every dish was.
