If you imagine the name, you'll see two miniature dachshunds happily running around on the beach as you sit in the waiting area right after entering the shop.UjiharaThe chef's black-and-white photographs are striking, and the fact that the cutlery rests on the tables are designed like miniature dachshunds suggests he's an avid dog lover. It's a small but charming restaurant with a warm and inviting atmosphere. It's always crowded, so reservations are highly recommended!
The interior is a pleasant space filled with sunlight, and the window seats are bench seats with cushions in calming colors, creating a relaxing and gentle atmosphere with warm pendant lighting. There are 14 seats. Cucciolo is usually full and bustling even during weekday lunch hours, but I was lucky to be able to get a table by calling just beforehand on a whim!
