The story
Zupperia Osteria Pitigliano brings the rustic, soulful cooking of the Tuscan hill town of Pitigliano to Tokyo’s Soshigaya neighborhood. The name itself tells the story: Zupperia is a coined word meaning “soup shop,” and the kitchen stays true to that spirit. The restaurant’s four pillars are fresh vegetables, Italian regional soups (zuppa), handmade pasta, and charcoal-grilled meat—primarily meat, but with a clear respect for the land.
As an osteria, the atmosphere is intentionally relaxed and unfussy. This is a place for adults who want to enjoy good wine and honest food without pretense. The cooking focuses on ingredients sourced from Japanese producers, interpreted through the traditions of Tuscany.
Dinner offers both a la carte ordering and two omakase courses, so you can choose your own adventure or let the kitchen guide you. Lunch is a prix-fixe course only—simple, thoughtful, and built around the seasons. The restaurant asks that each guest orders at least two dishes and one drink during dinner, reflecting the convivial, sharing nature of an Italian meal.
Zupperia Osteria Pitigliano earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand in 2026, a nod to its consistently good cooking at a reasonable price. It’s the kind of place where the quality of the food speaks louder than the decor, and where the Italian cuisine feels both authentic and rooted in the local landscape.
The restaurant is a sister to Fiocchi, another well-regarded spot in the city, but it stands on its own as a destination for anyone craving the warmth of Tuscany in Tokyo.
