What makes it special

The appeal is straightforward: Italian lunch for ¥1,500 (before tax) that arrives with house-made popovers you can refill, fresh salad, and a proper pasta dish. The popover — fluffy, warm from the oven — is the novelty; the pasta hits hard for a lunch set. At dinner, roasted meats are the draw and reportedly move fast. Kanda location keeps it accessible; card payment available.

How to visit

Walk-in lunch is standard. Dinner roasts sell out, so arriving early helps. Card payments accepted. Website linked via parent company Selecao. Exact hours: Mon–Fri 11am–3pm, 5–10pm (closed weekends).

FAQ

What is a popover?

A light, puffy pastry baked fresh in-house. At Macco, it comes warm as part of the lunch set and can be refilled.

Does the ¥1,500 lunch price include tax?

No — the post lists it as tax-exclusive. Confirm final price on visit.

Is dinner different from lunch?

Yes. Dinner emphasizes roasted meats (especially roast beef) which sell out daily. Lunch focuses on the pasta set and popover value.
