I found this restaurant on Tabelog where I could make a reservation for New Year's Day. I walked from Osaka Metro Nakazakicho Station to get there on New Year's night for my first visit. The restaurant was medium-sized and bright, with a pizza oven visible. I ordered a hot Oolong tea for 440 yen, which was served in a small kettle and filled about 3-4 cups. The homemade white sangria for 880 yen had a strong orange flavor and came in a generous portion. The Beauty Salad with organic vegetables in size L for 800 yen was delicious and healthy, with a good amount of acidity and freshly grated cheese on top. The Margherita pizza with Parma ham and arugula for 2100 yen was large and had a perfect balance of tomato acidity and salty ham, with crispy arugula adding a fresh touch. The Carbonara pasta for 1500 yen was rich and creamy, with thick fettuccine noodles, cheese, and bacon, topped with freshly grated cheese for extra flavor. The authentic Italian dishes were all delicious, and the presentation of sprinkling grated cheese was impressive. Just be prepared for a bit of a wait for the food to be served, but the taste is definitely worth it.

This is a review about using the lunch service. A person with a dog and a regular customer, a lady, entered the restaurant after me. I visited the restaurant expecting to receive a 20% discount using my American Express card, but I was told that I needed to spend at least 5,000 yen to be eligible for the discount.

I went to this restaurant because the reviews on Tabelog were decent, but I should have checked Google reviews first. The kitchen staff, an elderly grumpy woman, and a young man in charge of the dining area. When we sat down, the table was not wiped clean so we had to ask someone to clean it. My friend's salad (appetizer) had no dressing, so we had to ask for it. We were left waiting for 30 minutes and our appetizers still hadn't arrived. We were then ignored until our main dishes came, which took over an hour. We waited over 2 hours and our dessert never came. I had to give up on dessert as I had other plans. We spent over 2 hours in the restaurant and only had 2 dishes. The noise of the dog they keep inside the restaurant was quite loud. The salad had no dressing, my pasta was overcooked, and my friend's chicken was burnt. It was a disappointing and tiring experience due to the long waits. Additional note: The noise of the dog is very loud.

[Lunch Set] Pizza Set @1,700 yen Pasta Set @1,300 yen They use organic vegetables and carefully selected meat and only natural fish, showing their commitment to quality ingredients. The food, including desserts, is delicious, and I was surprised by the reasonable prices.

"Glassfed 100% Beef Hamburger" vol. 40 is a beautiful blue Italian restaurant located in the Art Zone Nakazakicho. Today's lunch special is the Power Lunch (1500 yen including tax) which includes: Organic salad, oven-baked meat on top, bone broth soup, and focaccia with dessert. The carefully selected fresh vegetable salad is crunchy and the thick Glassfed meat, baked in the pizza oven, is full of flavor. The main hamburger has a clear golden meat juice that is juicy and delicious. The focaccia was soaked in and enjoyed with care. The dessert after the meal was a body-friendly dessert made with Glassfed butter and natural sugar.

I recommend the open-air tables on the street corners in Europe (weather permitting). I had the "Roast Chicken" course. Two things stood out to me: the perfectly juicy chicken with a matching herb aroma, which was very delicious and unique. The pizza dough is recommended for those who like it chewy. They also sell rice flour bread and potatoes at the storefront.

I used it for Sunday lunch. The pizza was delicious and they seem to be particular about it. However, there were several disappointing points: - The staff didn't come to take our order promptly. - It took almost an hour for the appetizers to arrive after ordering (they were brought together with another customer's order that came later). - We ordered one pizza each, but only one pizza came for each of us, so we had to share. - The dessert seemed like a leftover piece of cake from a supermarket. - When I wanted to pay with a card, they asked for an extra fee, and when I asked if they accept Rakuten Pay, they gave a cold response. Overall, it's a good place to enjoy delicious pizza and have a leisurely chat in Nakazakicho, but there are some areas that need improvement.

I went to Nakazaki-cho for the first time. There are many stylish lunch restaurants, perfect for a leisurely walk on weekends. The entrance of this restaurant is open, with a terrace seat that is great on sunny days. The pizza and pasta were delicious, and each appetizer was also tasty.

I visited the restaurant for the first time and had the BDP in a private room for two. The course included all-you-can-drink with glass exchange every 90 minutes and last order for pizza was for 2 out of 4 choices. However, when we selected our pizzas, some ingredients were not available, so we had to choose from what was available. Even though we made a reservation in advance, it was unacceptable that some ingredients were missing. Also, the staff was slow in taking our orders. The course did not include dessert, which was disappointing. These three points were quite disappointing.

Today, I passed by this place on my way to work so I decided to check it out. I was the first customer when they opened. The restaurant is quite spacious with only one staff member. I ordered the Pasta Set for 1300 yen, which included an appetizer platter, homemade focaccia, the pasta of the day (I chose beef and vegetable ragu), and dessert. I also saw a healthy-sounding soup on the menu, so I ordered that too. The Grass-Fed Beef Bone Broth Soup for 600 yen. First, the appetizer was fresh vegetables with thick ham? It was moist and had a nice smoky aroma. The carrots were surprisingly sweet. Then, I tried the soup that had been simmered for 100 hours. It had a hint of pumpkin along with the carrot flavor. It seemed like a good soup for the body, and the portion was generous. Occasionally, I could hear a dog barking from the back of the restaurant. The pasta had plenty of meat and was made with flat noodles with a strong herb flavor, which may not be to everyone's liking, but I enjoyed it. The vegetable that looked like burdock turned out to be crunchy Jerusalem artichoke. I wondered when the homemade focaccia would come out, but it never did, and dessert arrived instead. Maybe they forgot about it? Oh well. Thank you for the meal.

Pizzeria Da Chiro! Pizza set! I went to a pizzeria in Nakazakicho! It feels like it's been a while since I had pizza. Anyway, if you're going to eat pizza, it has to be wood-fired pizza! The aroma of the wood on the dough is something special! You can't get that with a gas oven! I ordered the Romana! Romana is a pizza with anchovies on top of Margherita! The anchovies add a strong salty flavor that makes it delicious! Romana and Chichniegri are my favorite pizzas! Also, appetizers! The salad has a simple Italian dressing with olive oil and salt! It's been a while since I've eaten like this! Pickled red turnips! These are tasty! Caponata! I almost forgot about this! I should try making it at home! Broccoli anchovy sauté! It's tender and tasty! Mushroom sauté! Freshly made and fragrant! Carrot syrup pickles! They have a citrusy orange scent! It might be lemon pickles instead of syrup! Pistachio and almond cake! This was delicious! It's been a while since I had pizza! Thank you for the meal!

It was Saturday afternoon, so the restaurant was crowded with customers. The lunch came with a salad, which was very generous and healthy. It seemed to take a little time for the hamburg steak to be served, but it was juicy and delicious.

This restaurant is a great place to visit even in this season with its open style. It's always bustling during lunchtime and has a nice casual atmosphere. The pizza is recommended, with a fluffy and chewy crust. I love the Quattro Formaggi pizza. They also serve main dishes cooked on charcoal.

There seems to be quite a range of opinions in the reviews, but I personally think it's a good restaurant. It's really nice to have terrace seating during the pandemic, even in cooler weather. Being able to make a reservation for a terrace seat on the day of the visit through Tabelog is great. The service may seem a bit cold and unfriendly, and the menu is a bit messy. The pizza has a slightly crispy texture, maybe because the crust is a bit thin. Ordering the Quattro Formaggi pizza costs an extra 100 yen for honey, but the honey served was really good and could even be enjoyed as a dessert. Other than the pizza, the rest of the food was just average. Thank you for the meal.

It was an emergency situation, so alcohol was not served until 8:00 pm, and the restaurant was going through a tough time. It seemed like the owner was managing everything alone, with only a few customers. We ordered antipasto, Quattro Formaggi, Bolognese pasta, roasted chicken, and gelato. The antipasto was generous with plenty of vegetables, the pasta was meaty and satisfying, and the Quattro Formaggi was a safe bet. The pizza crust was crispy, and it tasted amazing with honey drizzled on top. The roasted chicken had crispy skin and was delicious. The gelato flavors were pistachio and vanilla, light and refreshing. We left feeling full. The restaurant was spacious, but having only one group made us feel a bit guilty. Despite the current situation, I hope they continue to do their best.

Today's pizza in Nakazaki-cho is delicious! However, since it's often run by just one person, it can take some time. It's best to visit when you want to relax. First picture - Margherita! So tasty! Second picture - Stir-fried lotus root and sausage with basil! Oh, this one is quite creative, thank you for the meal.

The 3rd Good Pizza Club! We visited a shop we weren't planning on because our intended shop was closed. We ordered two pizza lunch sets. I tried to order orange juice as usual, but they were out of stock. I ended up ordering the recommended cold fresh juice, but they said they were too busy to make it, so I had to settle for apricot juice. When we first entered, the restaurant was quite empty, but it took 30 minutes for the appetizer of vegetables to arrive. Then, after another 30 minutes, the first Margherita pizza arrived. Although the owner brought it to us personally, it was placed on the table quite unceremoniously, which was a bit disappointing. Also, the cheese had hardened a bit as it had cooled down. We waited some more time, and the second pizza of the day finally arrived. This one was freshly baked and quite delicious. I had high hopes for the restaurant's atmosphere and quality, so I was quite disappointed. This experience was a good learning opportunity.

I was craving pizza so I went searching for it. The pizza and pasta were delicious, and the wine went down smoothly. The place was quite full so it might be better to make a reservation. The food was tasty but it took quite a while for the dishes to come out, and since I was hungry, that was a bit disappointing.

The Quattro Formaggi pizza covered in mushrooms has a dough that is not too thin or thick, with a chewy texture and plenty of moisture. The mushrooms are piled generously on top of a paste, giving a strong mushroom flavor with each bite. The Quattro Formaggi includes blue cheese for a strong cheese taste without any unpleasant odor. The honey adds a rich umami flavor that leaves a good impression. The pizza is delicious and I would like to come back, but the service is slow due to limited seating and the staff is not very friendly. There is a dog in the kitchen that barks, although it seems to be well-liked by regular customers, it raises concerns about hygiene. It's a shame that such a delicious food is wasted at this restaurant.

Dinner in Umeda, Nakazakicho. This time, focusing on pizza in Nakazakicho. Nakazakicho actually has quite a few pizza and ramen shops. There are also many unique dining options, so I want to gradually explore this area. There were several options, but this time I chose "Pizzeria Da Chiro." This is an Italian restaurant mainly serving pizza. Due to the influence of the coronavirus, there were no customers. There are also seats outside, but I chose to sit inside. It's hot... too hot, I can't stop sweating haha. I can't stay here for too long... I ordered a craft beer. I also ordered a bit less as I want to eat quickly and go to the next place. I wanted to order the special dish with Hinata pork shoulder loin, steamed cabbage, and tender stewed rigatoni, but they said, "We don't have cabbage." Seriously? It's the special of the day and there are no customers haha. The staff also seemed unmotivated, probably due to the decrease in customers because of the coronavirus. In the end, I ordered the Calabrese for 1700 yen and the rich carbonara fettuccine for 1500 yen. It arrived after a while. The pizza was quite delicious! The size was a bit small but just right. The tomato sauce and the dough matched well and tasted delicious. The carbonara was slightly spicy in flavor. It goes well with alcohol. The taste was decent. I had a total of 3 drinks, and the bill came to just over 5000 yen. I didn't order much, so it was a reasonable amount. The taste of the food was not bad, but the heat was unbearable. Hmm... The owner seemed completely unenthusiastic, and the service, environment, and atmosphere of the restaurant were disappointing. Probably, there were good times and high ratings in the past, so it's a shame. The coronavirus is truly frightening...

Hidden pizza battleground, Nakazaki-cho area. La Baracca, Sknizzo da Shigeo, La Pizza D'Oro, Bastone, Asso da Yamaguchi, and many other high-level pizza shops are gathered in this area. Today, I visited Pizzeria Da Chiro for the first time. The female owner makes authentic pizzas with carefully fermented dough and high-quality ingredients, baked in a Napoli wood-fired oven. The restaurant is located on the north side of Nakazaki-cho, within walking distance from Tenjinbashi-suji Rokuchome Station and Umeda/Nakatsu Station. The blue facade with an open terrace gives off a cheerful Southern Italian vibe. The spacious and casual interior has a counter with 9 seats, 3 tables for 2-4 people, and a large table for 6 people. There is also a private room in the back. The outdoor terrace has 6 seats and is pet-friendly. The restaurant is run by a female chef and another staff member. It's recommended to visit when you have plenty of time as they may be busy serving the terrace seats. Lunch is available on weekends as well (closed on Mondays), from 11:30 to 16:00 (please check for the latest information). Lunch menu (all prices include tax): - Pizza (single 1,200 yen, with appetizer and dessert 1,650 yen, half size 700 yen): Margherita, Quattro Formaggi (add honey +100 yen), Romana (Margherita + anchovy), Mushroom Madness, Today's Pizza with Carbonara and half-boiled egg - Pasta (single 1,000 yen, with appetizer, focaccia, and dessert 1,400 yen): Shirasu and rapeseed pepperoncino, Pork shoulder loin and steamed cabbage ragout - Limited to 10 servings speed menu (within 8 minutes): Oven-baked cheese hamburger 1,100 yen (with mini salad, focaccia, and dessert) - Main (single 1,400 yen, with appetizer, focaccia, and dessert 1,650 yen): Black pork cheek simmer Other options include focaccia sandwiches, sausages, craft beer, wine, cocktails, and other alcoholic beverages. I ordered a single pizza this time. While the half & half service is not available, you can order a half-size pizza. I chose the Romana pizza topped with tomato sauce. The pizza arrived in about 10 minutes, with a nice crispy crust and a tempting aroma. The dough is carefully fermented by the owner, bringing out the sweetness, umami, and wheat fragrance. The dough has a slightly less chewy and fluffy texture overall, with the center being thin and drooping due to the weight of the toppings. The crust is crispy and flavorful, with a nice wheaty taste and a balanced saltiness. The tomato sauce is light and natural, made with ripe San Marzano tomatoes from Italy with only added salt. The thick and chewy mozzarella is made from fresh, high-quality Hokkaido milk. The basil adds a nice flavor, and the anchovy paste, creamy cheese, and tangy tomato sauce create a perfect harmony with the crispy dough. Romana pizza is always a well-balanced choice.
