While ラザニア is the standard name, you will often find 'lasagna-style' gratins in Japanese cafes that use thin slices of potato instead of pasta sheets.
In Japanese menus, 'lasagna' is often categorized under 'Yōshoku', a term for Western-style cooking adapted to the Japanese palate.
The word ラザニア is written using the 'katakana' script, which is specifically used for loanwords and foreign names to distinguish them from native Japanese words.
