Sumida City, Tokyo, Japan｜S!CO

We had a dinner here in a workday evening. The restaurant is quiet. The presentation of the food excellent. The flavour is rich. We ordered the octopus antipasto, the margarita pizza and the seasonal dessert (fig custard pie and black tea ice cream). The antipasto is huge (not sure if it is a Japanese tradition that made food so big...), but I am happy to see many vegetables in the dish. The pizza dough taste right. The pie (I wouldn't call it pie, it is two pieces of airy puff pastry curst) is caramelized which tased surprisingly good with the fig. The starter (two puffed wafers with pork spread and jam) tasted good. Everything taste like just right. We don't feel we are in Japan. It feels like in any good restaurant in a European city. Overall it is way beyond our expectation. I can see the chef is very familiar with European cooking. It is a nice place for anyone who would like to feel a bit European with a very fair price.

When I visited just before 12:00 on a Saturday, about half of the seats were occupied. It looks like there are seats on the second floor as well. The interior of the store is large and the ceiling is high, giving it an open feel. There are many seats where you can eat with your baby in a stroller, so it's a friendly restaurant for families with children. The limited 10-meal lunch set (2,400 yen) is Cold sweet potato soup, delicious roast beef salad, You can choose from three types of pasta. I chose homemade salsiccia with tomato sauce, and my companion chose peperoncino with squid and cabbage. The light but rich tomato sauce and salsiccia were very delicious. Handmade focaccia also available The main course was sautéed sea bream with pumpkin sauce, or sautéed pork coated in crispy breadcrumbs with green pepper sauce as an accent, both of which were delicious! Dessert is pumpkin pudding and coffee, it's really good value for money. The porcini mushroom pizza looked delicious, so I'd like to try it next time! Thank you for the meal.

A popular neighborhood restaurant that is always busy for lunch. Therefore, I aim for around 13:00 on the second rotation when the first customers change. This day is a weekend limited lunch course. In addition to pasta, you can choose meat or fish. I chose fish today. The way the fish is grilled makes the skin crispy and the meat fluffy, and it's always delicious. It comes with a drink and a dessert, so I think it's a good value for money in terms of quantity and taste. We will go again!
