Il sol levante — Restaurant in Fukuoka

We tried a couple other pizza places first but our dog wasn’t allowed so we were very happy when this one had a table for us outside. The prices were very reasonable with some homemade drinks and cured meats, along with some very creative dishes. The restaurant is Vera Pizza certified which means its pizzas are prepared with similar ingredients and style to original Napoleon pizzas. And as a lover of pizza I’ve traveled all over the world and to Napoli to satisfy my desires 😆 But this cook was clearly a master of his dough and wood fired oven. The pizzas were incredible with a perfect balance of toppings and flavor. The crust was charred to perfection but still chewy and rich. Even within Japan I’ve had many pizzas and I would say this pizza is definitely at the highest level. Next time we visit we will...

IL SOL LEVANTE is a restaurant where you can eat authentic baked pizza at an affordable price.

A shop owner certified by the "True Naples Pizza Association" will bake them in a kiln made from bricks ordered from Italy.

Even home delivery pizza, the most familiar pizza in Japan, can't be less than 1,000 yen per piece, but this IL SOL LEVANTE can be enjoyed from 680 yen. I am also happy to be able to choose from a wide variety of dishes, from the orthodox Margherita to the daily pizza using green soybeans. You can eat any number of thin pizzas baked in a kiln. If you have more than two people, you can ask them to share a different kind of pizza.

Besides pizza, it offers Italian cuisine such as prosciutto and carpaccio.

With a friendly customer service, you can enjoy relaxing...

The pizza I enjoyed during my last trip to Fukuoka was memorable, so I visited it during this trip. I couldn't make a reservation for lunch, so I went without a plan, but luckily I sat in the last seat. I ordered today's pasta and large-sized Margherita pizza. I have traveled to Italy twice, but this pizza is more delicious. Last time, I couldn't eat pasta because it took 2 hours, but this time I tried it because I heard it took 30 minutes. It was a ragu meat pasta, which was a luxurious taste that I could never make at home, and the spaghetti noodles were so chewy. I'd like to visit again on my next trip. Actually, I want to go there this...
