Piattini Micio — Restaurant in Osaka

What a lovely surprise.. Never did I expect to find some of the best Italian food I’ve ever had in my life in Osaka! The food, service and overall experience is top notch.

The cheeses are shipped weekly from Italy, and all the ingredients taste super fresh. The chef visited Italy in previous years for a month at a time to learn how to cook, and his pairings were magical. The waitress was so sweet and went above and beyond, and gave us each an origami she made herself - KAWAIINA!!

My partner and I each had a drink (he had a highball and I had the blood orange beer which got tastier after every sip), and shared the burrata and white peach appetizer (the cheese was perfectly cold and the peaches were juicy and mild), margarita pizza (fresh crushed tomato as the sauce and mozzarella was SO good, the dough was light and tasty), gnocchi main (they were out of fig and subbed it with pear which was also delicious), and the milk gelato dessert.

Spaghetti alle vongole was just FINE!

Hardness is great, not overcooked, not too wet, not too dry, and yet it bounces while you bite.

The steak and lamb is just at what you asked as how it’s cooked.

I asked for medium, and it comes out perfect medium, I know because of study I had in Le Cordon Bleu.

Service is friendly, passionate, this is a place worth to go...

Had a late night craving for pizza (yes, after dinner) and this place hit the spot... staff was very nice, friendly and prompt.

We ordered a large margherita pizza, a glass of sparkling wine and a glass of Italian red wine—all for $28! Price is similar to what we would pay for a similar pizza in the states... maybe even cheaper here.

Pizza was very good—it was floppy with a vibrant tomato sauce; crust was firm but wasn’t burnt. Husband tried the chili oil and said he was more content without it.

We left with a nice origami gift from (who we assume are) the owners.

Overall, a pretty tasty pizza in an...
