Morizo — Restaurant in Odawara

I was very disappointed with this restaurant.

I had reserved a table as it was close to the castle and appeared to be well rated.

However there were a number of issues that spoiled our lunch experience.

Firstly, despite it being a rather cool spring day the restaurant was hot and stuffy, and both my wife and I felt uncomfortable.

Secondly, we waited 45 minutes from ordering to receive our main courses, which is way too long for lunch service.

Thirdly, the pizza was burned and largely tasteless. Way too much tomato sauce which dominated the taste.

Finally, I asked for hot tea to be served after finishing my meal however the tea never arrived, so we left without having it.

Overall it was not a good experience and at over ¥2000 per person I expect much...

Service killed the rating. Simple order for two people: two soups, one pizza one pasta. We waited 45 minutes for the first soup to arrive (my partner's). 15 minutes later my soup arrived, followed almost immediately with the pizza (also mine). The soup is served in a very hot pot, so had to eat it after the pizza (not ideal). Pasta for my partner arrived when i was almost done with the soup. Pasta - below average (Vongole Bianco). Pizza - okay-ish (Diavola). Minestrone very good, Onion Gratin soup great. Manager's attitude -...

We had the BEST dinner here for my dad’s birthday… incredible antipasto, fresh mozzarella salad, mussels and clams in white wine, amazing pizza, a to-die-for salad of baratta cheese with strawberries, prosciutto and balsamic, truffled potatoes, and the most amazing birthday desserts platter… all with a lovely bottle of red… and for a feast the four of us the whole bill with drinks came to 13,800 yen… such great value! Wonderful caring service and help to select gf dishes for our gf family member… so highly...
