Codino — Restaurant in Suita

VERY Japanised Italian restaurant. Pizza has rice flour in it giving it that mochi mochi taste which, in my opinion, doesn't belong in pizza. Only good thing was the ice-cream and that was the tiniest serve (yes, I know it was a lunch set, but it was 2000 yen making it an expensive pizza regarding the size of everything else). The lunch set comes with a choice of pizza (margarita, anchovy with olive, quattro cheese, or diabolo), a small salad (mostly greens with shirasu [small white fish], one large rock hard crouton, fried within an inch of their lives bacon pieces- all drizzled with an oil based vinaigrette), a very small dessert of vanilla gelato (you can pay an extra 350 and upgrade it to any dessert they offer) and a drink (choice of orange juice, apple juice, coffee hot/ice, or espresso). If you go for the 2500 set the only difference is a slightly different salad (no idea exactly what cause we didn't get it) and the choice of pizza OR pasta... Doesn't seem worth it to me. Arancini ball things were rice with squid ink. I didn't have any but feedback from my hubby was that they were bland. Not offensive, but not good either. Staff were fine. Seemed polite enough but didn't really deal with them much. No English menu if that matters to you. Also lunch...

unfortunately I cannot recommend this restaurant as a good restaurant! This was one of the worst pasta dishes I've had in Japan.🇯🇵 I don't think it was prepared by a professional because the restaurant owner was making pizza in the oven! simple tomato 🍝 spaghetti…

The “pizza”despite being only a small size, wasn't bad.

the meat 🥩 was also tough and dry

before even cleaning the table the waitress brought the dessert that had no space,really bad service. It was a very bad service for a restaurant that charges a fee per person to use the table, including small kids.

“The owner of the restaurant is a good person but the restaurant is not good”

I would like to use this comment to help other people avoid having this bad experience and especially to ask the owner to pay attention to customers.

and reduce those French fries that left our clothes smelling like fried food, and teach the people who work with it how to make spaghetti

unfortunately today our experience...

Really nice Pizzaria. The chef apparently has won the best pizza in the world in an international competition.

We had the lunch special, a starter, pizza and espresso and ice cream for 1,500 yen. Totally reasonable.

We had the Sicilian and diablo. Both very good with a very good crust. Base is light, chewy and charred in places from the wood fired over. However, there is a bit too much cheese on both pizzas and the diablo was not spicy, but there is a chilli oil for drizzling if needed.

We arrived at opening time 11.30 and were seated without wait and by 12.00 the restaurant was half full. Great place for a...
