Uokin Ikebukuro

Average Japanese style Italian. Not overly expensive, so that was good. Nice atmosphere. The carpaccio plate was just ok, and the pizza we ordered had a very thin crust with very thin sauce, making it a little difficult to eat. I'm more a fan of stone oven style pizza with a thin but *crispy* crust, so maybe pizza was the wrong thing to order here. Not sure if I'll be back, but if I am, maybe I'll try their pasta or a seafood dish.

Fresh food and perfect service

I like Shinjuku one more, more choices and more delicious. However, if you wanna drink beer, alcohol and snacks at Ikebukuro, it is still a nice place. Still recommend the sashimi platter, the big one, still very fresh and yummy. Healthy choice is seaweed soup with tofu, very healthy indeed. If there are 2 of you dine there, try to choose the non bar table, as non bar table is much more spacious.
