Why Travelers Love GARB Weeks
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
It may be very busy around lunch time during the weeks, so maybe it is better to reserve a table in advance or arrive early enough before it opens. Nothing to complain about! Delicious Italian food, especially the linguine pescatora and margherita pizza—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The service is outstanding, with friendly staff like Shuri and Moe who made our visit extra special. Highly recommend! The food was really, really good. Had one of their pizzas and was in love with it. They did put me in the corner of the bar and kind of forgot about me when they got busy. 20 minutes of no service is a little wild, having to go and grab someone to get my bill. Made the good meal not really worth it.

Tasty Italian + Good Atmospheres The reason we picked this restaurant was due to its location. It is close to Nakanoshima Art Museum, and we want to check out illumination at nearby city hall. But the food was better than what we expected, especially the pizza and yellowtail with yuzu tartar. The staff were friendly, attentive, and can speak basic English well. We visited in late November, and there were heaters provided for the outdoor seat, so it was nice and warm. It was lovely to have alfresco dining. Indoor seat are also available. The reservation can be made online via Google map.

A nice place by the river in Nakanoshima park. There are tables inside and outside so the outside table would be great when sun is out. This cafe/restaurant could be a nice place to have a cuppa or lunch during a walk or even some drinks and dinner as they serve tasty pizzas! We had a steak lunch and a pizza. Loved both. A big custard cream puff with cream on top for desert if you have a sweet tooth.
