What kind of place?
Fake reviews removedA 10-minute walk from Shichijo Station in the Higashiyama area. This authentic Neapolitan pizzeria — marked by white walls and a red tent — is the founding school of Kyoto's Italian cuisine scene. Chef Sasajima of Il Ghiottone and Chef Sakamoto of Cenci both trained here. Famous for wood-fired pizza (crispy outside, chewy inside) and handmade pasta with a focus on fish. Tabelog 100 Best Italian 2025 and Tabelog 100 Best Pizza 2025. Lunch runs JPY 2,000-2,999.
Many reviews say 'the holy land of Kyoto Italian cuisine,' 'chefs trained here are active all over Kyoto,' and 'lunch offers godlike value.' Tabelog 3.69 with 390 reviews shows stable high ratings. Abundant posts from regulars and repeat visitors.
