August 22, 2024 open

An Italian restaurant has appeared in a quiet residential area west of the Kyoto Prefectural Government Office. The restaurant, located in a renovated old machiya (townhouse) at the end of a long approach, has a spacious structure with a counter seating eight. The window in the back of the restaurant offers a view of a Japanese-style garden with a tsukubai, creating a relaxing atmosphere.

I want people to relax and enjoy the food without any tension," says chef Seiya Tatsumi. [The dishes prepared by Mr. Tatsumi, who trained for many years at Italian restaurants in Kyoto such as Radice, are served as a course. The full-flat counter allows diners to enjoy the live cooking experience as the dishes are prepared.

Enjoy unique dishes that mix Japanese cooking methods and flavors, such as wagyu beef grilled over charcoal or pasta with squid noodles. The appetizers, which are reminiscent of Japanese dishes, are hearty and perfect as accompaniments to drinks. Be sure to enjoy a glass of wine, mainly from Italy, from the 350 bottles always available.

etto Appetizers

All dishes are examples of the 12,100 yen dinner course (incl. service charge). Assorted appetizers including eel pie with eel and black garlic on fried bread, grilled eggplant biancomangiare, and a small pizza with prosciutto ham, buffalo mozzarella, and peaches.

Spaghetti with secret squid ink sauce is one of the chef's specialties. The sauce mixed with squid ink and squid liver is simmered for a long time to prevent it from sticking to your teeth.
