About this place
Whether you fancy a few tapas with wine or a meal centred on pasta, Poquito’s menu gives you plenty to choose from, spanning small plates, daily seafood dishes and meat. One visitor described starting with the Poquito Set, then trying carpaccio and ajillo before moving on to tortilla and fresh pasta. They found the portions manageable for two, and the account suggests an enjoyable way to build a meal one plate at a time. The listed Poquito’s Set costs 1,200 yen and includes Iberian pork rillettes, Poquito salad, bonito carpaccio, fried akou grouper and an ajillo of whitebait and egg. Ajillo is listed as an additional 400 yen. The set could be a good starting point, with other dishes added according to what catches your eye.
The small plates also include Hokkaido sardine marinade, grilled kuruma prawns and spring rolls filled with octopus braised in red wine, offering a range of ingredients and preparations. Another visitor wrote that they enjoyed conger eel ajillo and a cheese platter with white wine. Seafood can shape the meal, or you can pick plates to accompany your wine. Jamón also made a lasting impression on one visitor, who said the Jamón Ibérico was sliced in front of them. The menu lists small and large portions at 1,800 and 3,300 yen, respectively, so you can choose a size to suit your party and the pace of the meal.
For something more substantial, turn to the pasta. The listed dishes include fresh pasta with guinea fowl ragù and spaghetti with seafood and courgette; the daily specials also feature seasonal ingredients, with summer porcini pasta among the options. You can build a meal around several tapas or make one larger dish the centrepiece. White and red wine by the glass starts at 500 yen, and the drinks list includes Spanish beer and homemade sangria. For dessert, there is panna cotta or chocolate cake, among other choices. Dinner reservations are available, including bookings for a table without a set menu. A chef’s-choice course costs 6,000 yen and can be arranged by telephone for parties of 4 or more.
