Located in the Vatican district, Okasan brings authentic Japanese cuisine to Rome. The client, who grew up in the streets of Osaka, had the desire to recreate a refined and traditional environment to transport his customers away from the chaos of the metropolis, serving ramen and other popular dishes.

Each furniture of the restaurant is individually designed and made of natural oak. Dark resins color the walls of the place, highlighting lights and furniture. The wood moves as a single element, starting from the area of the counter to the halls in tatami, where bright silhouettes of natural landscapes, lamps in the shape of straw hats and typically Japanese prints build a warm atmosphere.
