Operated by Saint-Marc Holdings, the same group behind the popular Saint-Marc Cafe chain, this Fresca format offers a more casual and open dining experience than the standard Kamakura Pasta brand.The restaurant specialises in fresh, made-to-order pasta dishes, with a menu that includes classic Japanese-Italian fusion plates alongside original iron-plate French toast that has become a signature favourite. Set meals are available for both lunch and dinner, with average budgets ranging from 1,000 to 2,000 yen, making it an affordable option within the Lumine Est dining floor.
Opening hours run from 11:00 to 22:00 daily, with last orders at 21:00, and the restaurant benefits from the direct station connection that makes Lumine Est one of the most accessible dining destinations in Shinjuku. The Fresca branch is noted for its more contemporary interior and open-plan seating compared to the standard Kamakura Pasta outlets, and weekday lunches draw steady queues of office workers and shoppers.

Really good fettuccini noodles. I got the Hokkaido mozzarella and basil pasta. It was really good and the service was nice and friendly. They spoke fluent English and were helpful and attentive. I don’t know why the ratings aren’t as high but if you enjoy this place, leave a good review because I think they deserve one.:)
