Habikino, Osaka, Japan｜タヴェルナ エッセ

Cosy sit-down Italian restaurant with delicious and sophisticated dishes. Counter seating downstairs, a few tables upstairs. Lots of options, including lunch sets. There is only the chef cooking, so plan for a leisurely meal.

I was passing by and had lunch by myself. Assorted appetizers with a small variety! happy. The fish dishes, spa, and chestnut tiramisu were all very delicious! The interior of the restaurant has an adult atmosphere, and the first floor is stylish with a tiled counter where you can sit on tall chairs. There are two people: the master who looks a bit crazy (this is my first impression when I see him. His speech and gestures are soft lol), and a beautiful woman with a very cute voice who resembles Mami Kumagai. The atmosphere was great, and you could feel how close they were in the conversation. It was the kind of restaurant you'd want to come to in the evening and have a drink.

Special lunch 2,500 yen🍀 Rock oysters, I forgot the price❗ No matter what you eat here, it's really delicious! ️ Please make a reservation at the counter 🍴 You can have a wonderful time with the chef's sensitive dishes and the wife's lighthearted talk 👍️ The menu written on the board will be arranged for you if there is something you don't like. You can enjoy the seasonal ingredients selected from Japan and overseas, their combinations, and the four seasons 🙆 Anyway, everything is handmade by the chef, the pasta is made right in front of you, and there is a wide variety of options 🎶 Dinner is a little pricey (it's definitely worth it), but lunch starts from just over 1,000 yen, so give it a try 😁 There are plenty of parking lots nearby 🅿️
