Bunkyo City, Tokyo, Japan｜il ristopastificio da H

Authentic Italian taste. Hand made pasta and great product quality.

Had the three course set and bottle of wine - amazing food and pasta, it’s lighter than its Italian variants and the chef trained in Italy. Relaxed atmosphere, incredibly clean, and the kitchen and food are made in front of you. Chef and waitress were extremely friendly. I don’t know how this place isn’t more popular, but if you don’t try it you’re missing out. Will definitely come back again.

Pastificio = Pasta maker. Excellent homemade pasta restaurant! The chef has worked in Italy and speaks Italian well. He knows his pasta and makes many varieties by hand. Good value for the quality. You can see the chef make pasta by day from the window, and in the evening you can watch him prepare your food thanks to the counter layout that sits about 10 people total. Dishes change regularly. We had flash fried octopus with tomato puree for antipasto; for mains we had scialatielli (pasta) with swordfish, brocolli and almonds, alongside pumpkin stuffed tortelli (pasta) with beef cheek sauce. Highly recommended.
