Attic — Restaurant in Nagasaki

While exploring the area around the harbor, we came across this restaurant with a lovely seaside atmosphere. The setting was peaceful, with a gentle sea breeze and a pleasant view that immediately caught our attention. It looked like a perfect spot to relax after a long walk, so we decided to give it a try.

The service was friendly and the staff were attentive, which made a good first impression. The place itself was clean and nicely decorated, with comfortable seating and a relaxing vibe great for enjoying the view with friends or family. Another nice touch was the background music soft and relaxing, perfectly matching the seaside atmosphere.

However, when it came to the food, there was a lot of room for improvement. The beef was unfortunately overcooked and dry, the shellfish tasted like it had been frozen before being prepared, and the fried chicken was rather plain nothing that stood out. It was disappointing because the menu looked quite promising.

There were four of us dining together, and although the food didn’t meet our expectations, we still enjoyed our time thanks to the beautiful view, pleasant music, and kind service. With better attention to food quality and preparation, this place could easily become a great dining spot...

Atmosphere: nice view overlooking the harbour with nice kinda bossanova music in the background.

Menu: Italian and Japanese fusion food. Attic pizza - their original pizza. Pizza bread was yummy. I am just not a big fan of lettuce as toppings. Spaghetti with Peperoncino, bacon and green beans - A few green beans and big cut of soft bacon pieces. It came surprisingly with a lot of oil. Spaghetti with soy sauce, butter, mushroom and bacon - a bit watery spaghetti with soft bacon pieces and mushrooms as per its name. Their food is not my liking. Maybe I just picked the wrong choices.

Coffee & dessert: A set of ¥880 comes with one choice of cake and drink selections. Tiramisu with castella: ok but not like wow Cheesecake: just ok for me but hubby likes it. I like creamier cheese cake. French press coffee: If you like strong coffee, this might not be your pick. Espresso con panna: Whipped cream on top was amazing but coffee was not.

After trying a number of coffee in Japan, we find it pretty weaker and lighter compared to other parts of the world. If you like Japanese coffee, this place...

A quaint two-story cafe situated in the cradle of Japan's coffee tradition in Dejima, Nagasaki along the bucolic Dejima Wharf.

A wide variety of beverages offered, a highlight of which is the coffee, boasting splendid latte art. Patrons can opt for second-floor seating in the attic which offers a nice view of the harbor and surrounding city limits.

Food options are standard italo-japanese fusion but great nonetheless and priced generously. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting the oft-overlooked Nagasaki with an evening to spare. Additional niceties include free wifi and comfy sofa...
