Hot and Crispy! The Allure of Omi Bar nadeshico's Authentic Stone Oven Pizza

Our pride and joy, the stone oven pizza, is something many customers who visit our restaurant enthusiastically recommend. Pizza baked in a real stone oven offers a unique flavor and texture that you simply cannot experience with an electric oven.

The Secret to Unparalleled Deliciousness Born in a Stone Oven

Baking pizza in a stone oven offers numerous benefits. By cooking it rapidly at high temperatures, the dough doesn't lose too much moisture, resulting in an ideal texture that's crispy and fragrant on the outside, and delightfully chewy on the inside. Furthermore, the far-infrared rays emitted from the stone oven maximize the umami of the ingredients, trapping their rich aroma throughout the entire pizza. With just one bite, the subtle scent of wood-fired smoke will waft, and an appetizing aroma will fill your mouth. This special stone oven pizza is truly a dish to be enjoyed with all five senses.

• Baked quickly at high temperatures to achieve a crispy outside and chewy inside texture
• Far-infrared effect condenses the umami of ingredients, creating a deep flavor
• Wood-fired aroma stimulates the appetite, making for a richly flavored pizza

Carefully Crafted Stone Oven Pizza Topped with Omi's Bounty

Omi Bar nadeshico's stone oven pizza is not only particular about its dough but also its toppings. We generously use seasonal vegetables nurtured by the rich local nature, as well as fresh meat and seafood. For instance, you can enjoy pizza featuring the juiciness of Omi pork in our Salsiccia pizza or colorful pizzas with seasonal vegetables, savoring Omi's finest blessings as pizza. In addition to classic Marinara and Margherita, be sure to check out our limited-edition pizzas featuring seasonal ingredients. You're sure to be impressed by the unique Omi flavors that can only be found here.

For a date in Kusatsu, sharing different types of pizza is highly recommended. For a girls' night out, gathering around several pizzas and finding your favorite slice is guaranteed to be a fun time.
