Pros: great cost performance, friendly staff. Some flashes of brilliance, like a super sweet "a la minute" tomato sauce cut with lemon zest.

Cons: significant use of non-domestic ingredients of mediocre quality (burrata and mass-produced ham from California), definitely more "Japanese-italian" than "Italian".

Tips: try the handmade pastas or at least avoid the generic spaghetti which comes out of a package and shows up in a number of pasta dishes.

For the meat course, the sirloin is too rich and the "akami" works way better.

I've had better Italian meals in Tokyo, to be honest. This was really a 2/3 star meal food-wise for me but it seems it can be much better with more targeted ordering.

お客様とランチに伺いました！
こちらのシェフが淡路島出身で貴方と同じ兵庫県なのよ、と常連のお客様から聞き、淡路島、、、。兵庫県だけど私は神戸市、ちなみに主人は淡路島、
似ていて土地柄がぜんぜん違うんですよね、
淡路島は海や山の幸が豊富で淡路牛とかあって食べ物は素晴らしい╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
淡路島にはよく行きますが、羨ましい！(ㆀ˘･з･˘)と主人の事を思っていました（笑）
そんな所で生まれたシェフ！が作るお料理！

予約時間5分前に到着？？？
服屋さん？？？と思い中に入ると違いました！
malcaと記載があったのですが横の階段下です！
こんにちは！とか言って堂々と入って
恥ずかしい！(//∇//)

お料理はコースでお客様にお任せしました！
冷製スープからはじまり
マグロ タルタル
フリット 生ハム
カラスミのパスタ
キャビアの冷製パスタ
丹波牛ロースト
パスタは最後足りない方は追加まで出来たので沢山頂けます！╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
などなど！

どれも美味しかったですが私が1番美味しかったのはマグロタルタルです！(*´꒳`*)
マグロ＋タルタルが大好きなのもありますがタルタルがマグロと合わさりとろっと濃厚(//∇//)
今まで食べたマグロ料理で1番でした！
お酒も進みます！

スタッフの方も親切、丁重な接客でした！

ここはお子様可能な様なので次回は家族と伺って見たいです！（╹◡╹）♡
ご馳走様でした！

I met with a customer for lunch!
I heard from a regular customer that the chef here is from Awaji Island, the same prefecture as you, Hyogo Prefecture, so I decided to visit Awaji Island... Although we are in Hyogo prefecture, I am in Kobe city, and by the way, my husband is in Awaji Island.
Although they are similar, the local characteristics are completely different.
Awaji Island is rich in seafood and mountain food, and the food is amazing, including Awaji beef ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
I often go to Awaji Island, and I'm so jealous! (ㆀ˘･з･˘) I was thinking about my husband (lol)
A chef born in such a place! Dishes made by!

Arrive 5 minutes before your reservation time? ? ?
A clothing store? ? ? But when I went inside, it was different!
It was listed as malca, but it was under the stairs next to it!
Hello! I said something like that and walked in confidently.
Embarrassing! (//∇//)

We leave the cooking up to you as a course!
Starting with cold soup
Tuna tartare
frites raw ham
Karasumi pasta
cold caviar pasta
Tanba beef roast
If you don't have enough pasta at the end, you can add more so you can have a lot! ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
And so on!

All of them were delicious, but my favorite was the tuna tartare! (*´꒳`*)
I love tuna + tartare, and the combination of tartare and tuna makes it very rich (//∇//)
It was the best tuna dish I've ever had!
Let's drink alcohol too!

The staff were also kind and courteous!

It seems like children are welcome here, so next time I'd like to visit with my family! （╹◡╹）♡
Thank you for the meal!

予約の取れないイタリアンにお誘い頂き行ってきました。
何度電話しても取れなかったので行けることに大興奮。

カウンター8席程度と個室が2部屋
メニューは単品注文とおまかせコースがあります。
本日はおまかせコースで注文。

【注文内容】
シェフおまかせコース　14,000円
◾️とうもろこしの冷製スープ
◾️やま幸さんより本マグロ、ブラータチーズ、ブルスケッタ

•単品で頼むと2人前で4000円超えのものがほとんどなので、コースで頼んだ方が色々なものが食べられてコスパもいいかもしれません。
選ぶ手間もないし、お店のイチオシ食べられるので
•出てくるテンポも良く、ほとんど待つことなく次々に料理が出てくるのがいいです
•特にお肉料理が美味しかったイメージです。火入れも完璧。コースの量もバランスも良く大満足です。
•お手洗いに行ってる時に料理が冷めないように蓋をしてくれますし、お水もなくなったらすぐ注いでくれるのでホスピタリティも◎

I was invited to an Italian restaurant that couldn't take reservations.
I was so excited to be able to go because I couldn't get a call no matter how many times I called.

Approximately 8 counter seats and 2 private rooms
The menu includes single order items and omakase courses.
Today I ordered the omakase course.

[Order details]
Chef's choice course 14,000 yen
◾️Cold corn soup
◾️Bluefin tuna, burrata cheese, and bruschetta from Yamayuki
◾️Bonito carpaccio
◾️Ayu confit spring rolls
◾️Boar ragu sauce handmade torenette
◾️Conger risotto
◾️Tomosankaku Black garlic paste, salt, jumbo green pepper
◾️Maruka pudding

•If you order a single item, most of the items will cost over 4,000 yen for two people, so it might be better to order as a course so you can eat a variety of things and save money.
There is no need to choose, and you can eat the restaurant's best choice.
-The food comes out at a good pace, and the food comes out one after another without much waiting.
•I have an impression that the meat dishes were especially delicious. The pasteurization is also perfect. I was very satisfied with the quantity and balance of the courses.
-When you go to the restroom, it covers the food so it doesn't get cold, and when you run out of water, it immediately refills it, so it's a great hospitality experience.

TACUBOでスーシェフを務めたシェフが、独立したお店。

1階はBarでB1がレストラン。
アラカルトで注文ができ、デザートを入れて7品くらいでちょうど良い。

飲み物もノンアルがあり、21時以降のスタートなら、新規でも予約が取れるのでこちら訪問した方が良いお店。

お店の方の対応も良く総じて満足度が高い。

The chef who served as sous chef at TACUBO opened this restaurant independently.

The first floor is a bar and B1 is a restaurant.
You can order à la carte, and it's about 7 items including dessert, which is just right.

There are non-alcoholic drinks available, and if the restaurant starts after 9pm, you can make reservations even if you are a new customer, so this is a restaurant you should visit.

The staff at the store responded well and I was generally satisfied.
