I travel across the country in search of delicious food, focusing on Tabelog Award-winning restaurants, renowned establishments, and Michelin-starred places. I use this as a record of the places I've visited, so my comments will be brief. I am grateful for my daily meals. It was a great meal.◆Awards◆ Tabelog Bronze Award 2026 Tabelog French WEST Top 100 Restaurants 2025 ◆Crowd Level◆ Reservations are hard to come by. ◆Parking◆ Available in front of the restaurant. ◆Duration of Stay◆ Approximately 3 hours. ◆Cuisine◆ Lunch course. ◆Comments◆ The location is quite inconvenient. It's about a 15-minute taxi ride from Hakata Minami Station. The view is beautiful, so I recommend going for lunch. You won't see much at night.The French cuisine was very delicious. This has become one of the places I want to revisit. I also want to thank the person who invited me to the private reservation.＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝ • Scores are primarily determined by the taste of the dishes within their respective genres. • Points may be added or deducted based on cost performance, service, and ambiance. • Facilities such as accommodations, roadside stations, and golf courses are rated on a 0.5 scale for the entire facility.
