Exciting Opening of TOKYO PASTA STATION

On September 16, 2026, the highly anticipated TOKYO PASTA STATION will officially open its doors at the underground Gransta Tokyo, within the JR Tokyo Station. This new Italian restaurant focuses on serving handmade pasta, a genuine delight for pasta lovers.

Handmade Pasta Experience

A standout feature of this restaurant is the in-house pasta-making area, which allows guests to enjoy freshly made pasta every day. With a selection of 10 different pasta shapes and textures, the restaurant skillfully combines various sauces and ingredients tailored to each specific type of pasta. The use of fresh, handmade pasta not only enhances flavor but also ensures a delightful and comforting texture, making each dish a unique experience.

Unlike traditional fast food offerings, TOKYO PASTA STATION emphasizes quality without compromising on speed. Guests can indulge in a satisfying meal quickly, whether they're on their lunch breaks or just passing through the station.

Dish Highlights

Here are some of the standout dishes that patrons can expect:

Tokyo Ravioli

This exquisite dish combines three colors of pasta filled with moist ricotta cheese mousse, meat sauce, and shrimp dumplings, all wrapped in delicately crafted ravioli. Flavored with a simple yet vibrant lemon butter sauce, this dish not only tantalizes the taste buds but also features an adorable form reminiscent of “cappelletti,” a pasta type meaning “little hats” in Italian.

Truffle-Infused Beef and Black Cabbage Bolognese

This rich and hearty dish mixes ground domestic beef with slow-cooked black cabbage, enriched with house-made Bolognese sauce. Finished with a hint of truffle, it brings a compelling depth of flavor to the table, paired perfectly with fresh spinach-infused tagliatelle that lends color and texture.

Seasonal Mushroom and Truffle Cream Sauce

Highlighting four types of seasonal mushrooms from Shinshu, this decadent cream sauce is cooked to perfection with a drizzle of white truffle oil, capturing the essence of autumn in every bite. The vibrant green tagliatelle complements the creamy richness seamlessly.

Classic Lasagna

In this timeless dish, house-made Bolognese sauce is simmered to perfection and layered with thick sheets of pasta, interspersed with creamy white sauce. Its underlying flavors and textures ensure that every bite is a satisfying experience.

Golden Cheese Toast

This indulgent starter features thick slices of bread soaked in butter oil and topped with a lavish amount of assorted cheeses, baked to achieve a crispy finish. It's perfect for cheese lovers looking for a hearty appetizer.

Fluffy Soufflé Omelet with Lemon Cream Sauce

This delicate omelet is whipped slowly to incorporate air, producing a light and airy texture. Paired with a zesty lemon cream sauce, it makes for a delightful breakfast option that pleases the palate.

A Thoughtful Beverage Menu

Alongside its pasta offerings, TOKYO PASTA STATION provides a carefully curated drink menu. Seasonal flavored teas made with homemade syrups, fresh green smoothies, and fruity smoothies highlight the natural flavors of the ingredients used. This approach ensures that each sip complements the seasonal dining experience.

Café Delights

Offering more than just pasta, this restaurant welcomes visitors to enjoy its café menu featuring organic ingredients. The coffee and various lattes utilize organic products to enrich their flavors, making it a great spot for casual dining or a quick coffee break.

Original Craft Beer

An original craft beer series, titled Tune #, is debuting with Tune #01 – First Note, designed to pair beautifully with the pasta dishes. This golden ale features a refreshing lemon base, enhanced with a special Okinawan salt for added depth, providing perfect harmony between the beer and the pasta.
