01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Thin-crust pizzas are rolled out only after an order is placed, then baked until aromatic and crisp. Located in Nishi-Sugamo, Asshago (アッシャゴ) is an old-school pizza house that keeps its lights on from dusk into the late hours. Carrying the nostalgic, easygoing atmosphere of a retro kissaten coffee house, the dining room offers a calm setting where solo diners can settle in comfortably for a meal.
Crisp Pizzas with a Wide Choice of Toppings
The primary draw here is the crisp, fragrant pizza. Options range from a simple Plain pizza that highlights the savory cheese to classics like salami, mushroom, and sausage, alongside toppings such as sweet corn, corned beef, vongole, and oysters. For those who want a combination of ingredients, combination pies like Mix A and Mix B are dependable picks. Because the thin crust never feels overly heavy, slices pair effortlessly with a glass of Chianti wine or beer.
A Substantial Yoshoku Menu of Pasta, Sandwiches, and Soups
Beyond pizza, the kitchen offers a well-rounded roster of comforting Japanese Western-style yoshoku fare. The pasta lineup includes staples such as ketchup-based Napolitan and meat sauce spaghetti, as well as clam-infused vongole. Rounding out an evening meal is easy by adding a warm bowl of minestrone or corn soup, or a fresh Italian or celery salad. Sandwiches such as ham and cheese or mixed fillings provide a handy option when looking for a lighter bite.
Orders are available for takeout as well as dine-in. Open late into the night, this neighborhood fixture is a dependable spot for comforting hot dishes and an unhurried, relaxing break.
