Popolamama

The signature springy, chewy bite of freshly boiled fresh pasta brings an immediate lift to an everyday meal. Situated on the second floor of the Toki Building commercial complex right outside Funabori Station, Popolamama Funabori Toki Building offers an unpretentious setting to enjoy a wide variety of fresh pasta and pizza.

Opening the menu reveals an expansive selection of pasta running from staples to creative specialties, including a richly flavorful carbonara made with Yodo Ran Hikari eggs and cured hanging bacon, a spicy red carbonara with chili, and a savory blue crab tomato cream. Dishes such as the eggplant and hanging bacon arrabbiata or the vongole bianco are also available in half portions, making them a welcome choice when eating light or pairing pasta with side dishes.

Beyond pasta, the kitchen provides a substantial lineup of dishes including pizzas like margherita or quattro formaggi topped with house-prepped mozzarella, alongside small plates such as white wine-steamed clams and mussels or gnocchi in cheese cream that go well with beer or wine. Those visiting with young children can rely on amenities like high chairs as well as dedicated kids' pasta and meal plates that include a drink and jelly.

The spacious dining room features both booth and table seating, creating a relaxed environment where food delivery robots assist the floor. Whether dropping by for a quick solo lunch between shopping errands or settling in for dinner with family, it is an easy stop whenever you find yourself right by the station.
