Tabelog 100 #7 in 2022
Tabelog gave Pinocchio its Restaurant 100 #7 place with 3.7pts in 2022. The cuisine focus is Japanese kissaten and pancakes, so the appeal is narrow and specific.
Thick hotcakes for daytime plans
Thick hotcakes and Japanese pancakes anchor the signatures. Conversational noise, casual service, and breakfast, brunch, or lunch suitability make it easier to plan as a daytime sit-down.
