italy_zoo — Restaurant in Osaka

Came here for a girl's lunch. This place is really small, it has 2 small tables and 1 long table. I reccomend calling ahead of time to reserve a spot.

We had their lunch course (2900+200 shrimp pasta option). The sweet potato soup was very interesting since it tasted like a dessert. It had some caramel sauce and chocolate bits.

I love their salad. One of the best salads I've had in a long time. I would come back just for this. It came with some cheese dressing that was inside a ceramic cow.

Pasta dish was not my favorite but it was still good. Pork dish was tender and not overcooked. You get a choice of dessert, I chose their cheesecake? It was very light and it came with a choice of tea/coffee.

Highly recommend this place. The staff is very kind and explained each dish to us. I'll be coming back...

This is a cute and cosy restaurant! It offers course menu as well as a la carte. English menu is available if needed. We liked everything we had and the favourite was the fish main course.

We ordered the following: 🥗 Appetizer salad with cheese sauce: it includes lots of different types of vegetables including aubergine, pumpkin, lettuce, beetroot, tomatoes, red cabbage, carrots, broccoli, and a piece of quiche and some almond. The warm cheese sauce was served in a cow shaped container, which was very cute.

🥖 Bacon, chestnut bruschetta: crunchy bruschetta, topped with sweet chestnut and bacon- very interesting combination of flavour!

🐟 Today's white fish: seared bream, served with scallop, asparagus in Bouillabaisse. The fish and scallop were both fresh and well cooked🫶🏻

🍰 Baked cheese cake 🍫...
