Nice restaurant and location. We were a oarty of 4 and had pizzas. Taste is good but the dough is not crispy and rather soggy. Service could get some improvements.

We visited here on the last day of our trip. The restaurant decor was lovely and the staff were friendly but the food was really disappointing. It was our most expensive and most dining experiences so far in Japan. My husbands pizza was way undercooked and came with no tomato base? I checked the men...u again and no where did it say the pizza was a Blanco pizza (also it was Diavola which I've never been served before as a white pizza). I had pasta which was pretty standard and bland. The starters were fine, white wine was on the warm side. Over all for this meal it was around 1500yen which I wouldn't mind paying at all if the food was worth it.

A wonderful find in the middle of Kyoto. After several days in town, we were looking for Italian food. The reception team at our hotel recommended it, and we couldn't have been more pleased. The pizza was great, paper thin crust cooked in a wood burning oven. We had the margarita and it didn't disap...point. Tagliatelle with meat sauce was yummy, as was the pasta with cherry tomatoes, and basil. For dessert, chocolate cake, which was rich and creamy. The service was very friendly. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. We're coming back tomorrow night!

Japan is a nightmare for vegetarians so when visiting I try to find Italian or Indian options and this restaurant was recommended by the concierge at the Granvia,Kyoto. Oh dear,I fear the concierge staff have never eaten at the place. I ordered seasonal vegetables and a Marinara pizza. The former tu...rned out to be an undressed salad. The latter a soup of tomatoes which utterly soaked the base. I sent it back and opted for the margarita which was equal sodden. Even the so called crust was soft with liquid . All in all,the worst pizza I have ever eaten. Nothing off the bill - naturally-and no one bothered to ask me what the problem was. They have also picked up the awful Italian ‘coperto’ charge habit which in Italy is sometimes forgivable if the bread is decent . The few pieces they offer here is unsalted white with oil but no balsamic. This is a third rate impersonation of an Italian restaurant. If you are indifferent to the quality of Italian food you might like this place. For people a little more discerning avid at all costs - literally.
