01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

One popular choice at IL TOBANCHI is the assorted appetisers, a dish diners recommend starting with. A half-size portion is reportedly available for solo diners at the counter, making it an option whether you are having a drink on your own or sharing a meal with a group.

One diner’s account gives a more specific recommendation: the chicken pâté. They found it refined and free of any strong smell, and said it was easy to enjoy even for someone who usually dislikes chicken or pâté. The careful preparation was part of its appeal.

The same diner singled out the Gorgonzola penne as a regular favourite, saying its richness and saltiness were especially well balanced. The menu also features a mushroom and Gorgonzola pizza and Roman-style carbonara generously topped with Parmigiano. If you are in the mood for cheese, the pasta and pizzas offer plenty to choose from.

Dogs are permitted both indoors and in the outdoor seating area. One guest who visited with their dog said they enjoyed appetisers, pizza and dessert. For groups, the listed set menus include fish and meat dishes made with seasonal ingredients from Kyoto.
