Here in Osaka&#39;s commercial district, there are not many tourists. The Italian pizza here tastes great, the fried food is delicious, a bit like tempura, and the grilled eggplant in this restaurant is very fragrant.

I was very impressed with La Cime. The food was well prepared and the service was of a high standard. The staff spoke good English and nothing was too much trouble. We had a lovely lunch and I would highly recommend it to everyone. I would have included pictures if I could have and let the facts speak for themselves. The presentation and quality of the food was excellent. Although this is not a cheap restaurant, the prices are reasonable, especially for lunch. Bookings are a must but you will not regret eating there.

As a vegetable lover, I was blown away by the sheer variety of vegetable dishes here. Every dish was a delightful surprise. The menu was truly creative, with features like the foie gras sandwich, which I&#39;ve never seen anywhere else. The entire meal was a feast for the eyes and the palate; the presentation was playful, and the generous amount of dry ice added to the dramatic, magical effect. This truly is a special place, and it&#39;s worth every bit of the hype.

[Environment] The restaurant is very large, different from other restaurants in Japan, the seats are spacious and bright.
[Taste] The French cuisine is quite authentic, with a set menu of 5,000 per person.

The flavor of the soup is particularly rich, and the taste of bonito is very strong; all kinds of grilled food are good, and the Iberian pork ribs are particularly outstanding, with a crispy surface and soft and juicy inside. They are the best grilled ribs I have ever eaten. The evening set meal costs 1,000 RMB per person, which is a conscience price even in Japan&#39;s Michelin three-star restaurants. ​

We had an absolutely delicious dinner at La Veduta. We were welcomed by the chef himself. After looking at the menu, we were so amazed by the chef that we ordered a 5-course dinner with wine pairing. The quality and skill of the dishes were amazing. Also, the sommelier selected very beautiful wines that paired perfectly with the food. What surprised us the most was that this restaurant is not a Michelin restaurant, but we heard that they want to get a Michelin star. In our opinion, La Veduta deserves a star!

A pretty good French restaurant, it feels cheaper than France. I ordered a portion of matsutake mushrooms which tasted very good, and the lamb chops were also delicious. The duck meat was fresh and tasted pretty good.

在大阪的商业区这里，游客不是很多，里面的意大利披萨味道很棒，那个炸物做的很好吃，有点点天妇罗的意思，这家饭店那个烤茄子很香哦。

没想到大阪也有这样充满正宗意大利风情的餐厅，特别推荐他们家的墨鱼面，吃起来还挺清淡的，也算是他们家的一个特色吧。还有海鲜炒饭也特别好吃。

I didn&#39;t expect that there is such an authentic Italian restaurant in Osaka. I especially recommend their squid noodles, which are quite light and can be regarded as one of their specialties. The seafood fried rice is also very delicious.
