The menu features pasta and pizza that make the most of seasonal ingredients, alongside carefully selected meat dishes, with pairings designed to complement wines and cocktails. Grilled dishes incorporating teppanyaki elements are also available, and its appeal lies in offering authentic flavors in a casual setting. It has gained a good reputation as an Italian restaurant that is easy to use for a variety of occasions.

Located in the Chayamachi area of Umeda, Osaka, it combines convenient access with a tucked-away, hidden-gem atmosphere. It features table and counter seating and provides a casual yet relaxed space, making it suitable for a variety of occasions such as dates, meals with friends, or after-work visits. It’s perfect for places where you want to enjoy both food and conversation.

It opened on March 28, 2019, and is a location where a Michelin-listed Italian chain from Fukushima Ward, Osaka, has newly expanded into Umeda/Chayamachi. Located in the city center, it carries the concept of "authentic Italian in a casual way" and is supported by both locals and tourists. Thanks to its convenient location, it has become established not only for meals but also as a spot for meeting up or having a quick drink.

The head chef is Mr. Takeuchi. He is from Fukui Prefecture and has been involved in the food and beverage industry since his student days, and has also worked as the manager of a creative Italian restaurant. Later he joined a Michelin-listed restaurant group in Fukushima, where he refined his solid skills. When launching the new Umeda location he was selected as head chef, and with his talents has created a dish that lets you enjoy “the taste of Fukushima” in Umeda as well.
