A Chinese restaurant near Kuzuha Mall in Mino. I called in the evening on the same day and they were able to accommodate me in a short amount of time. Due to the limited time, I ordered a la carte. The order was as follows: - Special sweet and sour pork with fragrant vinegar (¥1980) - Sichuan mapo tofu (¥1980) - Assorted special dim sum (¥1287) - Five-ingredient fried rice (¥1320) There were so many tempting menu items that I had a hard time deciding, but since I didn't have much time, I went with classic choices this time. The delicate and elegant seasoning was to my liking. In particular, the special sweet and sour pork had a wonderful flavor from the fried pork. The fried rice had a well-balanced flavor without being too heavy. Everything was so delicious that I am curious about other menu items. I am very satisfied with being able to enjoy authentic Chinese cuisine! It's a bit difficult to get there without a car, so the hurdle to go is high, but I definitely want to go again! Next time, I plan to try a course meal. While it is not a fully reservation-only restaurant, it is mostly booked up, so reservations are recommended.

I visited this place during both daytime and nighttime, and was satisfied each time. I visited at night after a long time, and all the dishes were so delicious that I couldn't keep up with taking photos as they were being served quickly. Some dishes like the Crab Meat Lettuce Fried Rice were not captured in photos, so I took pictures on my plate. The dishes I enjoyed included: Jellyfish Cold Dish, Steamed Chicken with 2 Sauces, Shrimp Steamed Dumplings, Shrimp in Chili Sauce, Beef in Sweet Miso Stir-Fry with Steamed Buns, Stir-Fried Fresh Scallop with XO Sauce, Special Sweet and Sour Pork with Vinegar, Crab Meat and Asparagus dish (I forgot the name), and Shrimp Ankake Yakisoba. They were all delicious and I left feeling very satisfied. The only downside was that the steak was sold out, which was disappointing. It was delicious, and I will definitely visit again.

I visited for lunch! I had been wanting to go for a while and finally made it to this restaurant. Since the day I went, I have been recommending it to my friends. I ordered a la carte instead of the course menu. The sweetfish with aromatic sauce was amazing. I have been to other Chinese restaurants as well, but after finishing the meal, I couldn't help but think about going back to Rokka. I want to go again soon!

Before going to Bunraku performance~ After Bunraku performance~ It's a busy day. I left my house in Kyoto early in the morning, first stopping for lunch on the way at Minoh Tunnel and then heading to my house in Osaka. It was a last-minute reservation with a time limit of only 1 hour and 15 minutes, so I quickly ate as soon as the food arrived. The car had a parking lot, which was convenient. I initially thought of ordering à la carte, but decided on the set menu as it might be faster. I chose the B course, which included appetizers, soup, dim sum trio, green onion soup soba, and dessert. The appetizers arrived quickly, each one delicious. The soup was a tofu and egg soup with lots of vegetables. The dim sum trio consisted of siu mai, shrimp crystal dumplings, and xiaolongbao, all delicious in their own ways. The main dish, green onion soup soba, was simple and exactly what I wanted. The soup was light and everyone wanted to finish it, but we left a little bit. The dessert was generous, and even though there were 10 minutes left, we leisurely drank tea before heading to a day trip hot spring to relax. After leaving the car at home, I did some yard work, then took a bus and train to Osaka Nihonbashi Bunraku Theater for the evening performance. After the show, we had dinner around Temma before heading back. It was a hectic day, but I really enjoyed the Chinese food and plan to come back with my mom friends next time.

I was taken to this restaurant by a friend, where soccer players often visit. I was excited to see if it was about the quantity or quality of the food. The interior of the restaurant was not very spacious, but it was clean and refreshing. I had initially given up on making a reservation due to it being fully booked, but I received a message that a table might become available, so I rushed over. Such thoughtfulness made me really happy. There were three lunch options available, and I chose the middle one priced at ¥2400. The appetizers were plentiful and delicious. This raised my expectations for the rest of the meal. I thoroughly enjoyed the soup, dim sum, choice of rice or noodles, and dessert. This place might be the best in the northern part of the city. The only disappointment was the warm tea served at the beginning, which seemed to lack flavor and tasted like tap water. Perhaps it was due to being the last customer of the day, but it left a lingering negative impression despite everything else exceeding my expectations.

I made a reservation and arrived around 1 pm. The restaurant was full of customers, of course! I ordered the "A lunch" for 1320 yen. It didn't take long for the special negi soup soba, shrimp tempura, fried rice, and pickles to be served. The taste was overall elegant and delicious. Thank you for the meal!

I visited Tsuruka for lunch, which I had been wanting to try for a while. This was actually my second visit. The first time I went for lunch, the food was so delicious that I made a reservation for the next time before leaving. There is parking space for 3 cars in front of the restaurant, and an additional parking lot for 5 cars on the northeast side of the building. If those are full, there is a coin parking lot on the south side of the restaurant. The restaurant is located on the first floor of an apartment building and has a stylish atmosphere more like an Italian restaurant than a typical Chinese restaurant. The food is of high-quality Chinese cuisine but the atmosphere is not too formal, so you can casually visit in casual attire. Every dish is carefully prepared and delicious, so you can enjoy your meal without any worries. My favorites are the seasonal domestic shark fin stew, seasonal domestic steamed black abalone with oyster sauce, marinated jellyfish, Sichuan-style mapo tofu, shark fin and pork soup, shrimp chili, and wagyu beef fried rice. You can enjoy all these dishes for around 8000 yen per person, which is surprisingly affordable! However, please note that only cash payments are accepted.

I have been living in Kitasenju for 22 years, and I finally had the chance to visit a restaurant that I've been curious about for a long time! It was difficult to make a reservation, but I adjusted my schedule to match the visit time. The restaurant has a clean and elegant atmosphere, almost like an Italian restaurant, even though it serves Chinese cuisine. There is parking space for three cars in front of the restaurant, but it's narrow so I parked at a coin parking lot behind the restaurant. Despite the lunch closing time being at 3 pm, I arrived at 2:20 pm! I was worried if I could finish eating by 3 pm. The food that came out was all high-quality Chinese dishes! Every dish was delicious. It's rare to find a satisfying restaurant, but I finally found one! ⭐️⭐️⭐️ It's a hall of fame restaurant!! There are many restaurants with top-notch deliciousness, but this one surpassed them all! For appetizers, I had jellyfish, delicious! Braised shark fin, the first time I had delicious shark fin in Kitasenju! Shrimp chili, perfectly seasoned! Dim sum set and spring rolls, authentic dim sum, delicious! Wagyu beef fried rice, a bit watery due to the lettuce. Sesame balls, plenty of sesame seeds, not too sweet, delicious! I was only half full after this. I wanted to eat more. I want to try mapo tofu and abalone next time. Even though I just finished eating, I already made a reservation for next time. This is also a first for me! Laugh

We shared the A set lunch menu and cold noodles set as a pair. The restaurant kindly provided separate plates for each dish, which was very thoughtful! The standout for me was the fried rice. It was fluffy and crispy, with char siu and shrimp adding great flavor. Definitely the best fried rice I've had recently! The cold noodles were unique, with a generous topping of seaweed giving it a rustic appearance but a refined and unforgettable taste. The soup was mildly sour with a hint of shiso, perfect with the thin noodles. The special negi (green onion) soup soba was light but full of flavor from the onions. Every dish was carefully prepared and delicious. A combination set with both cold noodles and fried rice would be perfect. Thank you for the meal.

Having a late lunch on a day off in Minoh at the stylish Chinese restaurant "Chuka". The menu is extensive, offering a variety of Chinese dishes. I ordered the "Set A" which includes "Soup Soba", "Fried Rice", and "Shrimp Fritters", as well as the "Cold Noodle Set" which comes with three types of dim sum. I also added our family's favorite, "Daikon Mochi". The Soup Soba had a generous amount of green onions and the broth was delicious. The Cold Noodles were refreshing with a nice texture and the toppings like wood ear mushrooms added a good crunch. The dim sum trio included "Xiaolongbao", "Shumai", and "Gyoza", all of which were tasty. The restaurant has a relaxed atmosphere, perfect for enjoying a leisurely dinner with drinks. I also noticed they offer Chinese New Year's Osechi for pre-order, which caught my interest.

Over 10 years ago, I had once made plans to visit this restaurant with a friend, but various circumstances prevented us from going such as temporary closure, full reservations, and renovation. Finally, I was able to visit after confirming that they were open. There was ample parking available in front of the restaurant and nearby. Inside, they had implemented thorough COVID-19 safety measures. They served us water and jasmine tea upon seating. For lunch, we ordered the A set menu which included special scallion soup soba, shrimp tempura, and fried rice for 1320 yen. The soup soba was light with plenty of scallions, and we found a hint of char siu in it. The fried rice had a strong flavor, and the shrimp tempura was crispy. It was a great experience to finally be able to visit after so long.

We ordered one A lunch and one B lunch, and shared them occasionally. The appetizers were cold dishes. The dim sum was served hot. The tempura shrimp was fluffy and juicy. The egg fried rice was deliciously fluffy. The thin noodles in light soup were satisfying. The spicy oil with green onions in the soup was tasty. The sweet and fluffy crab omelette with tomato sauce was like Chinese-style omelette rice - I loved it! The presentation and tableware were beautiful, with a good balance of cold and hot dishes. The jasmine tea was a nice touch. The staff were attentive, bringing extra plates and cutlery generously, even though it was just lunch. They were efficient, clearing the plates quickly after we finished eating. It felt a bit rushed, but that's why we could enjoy the freshly made hot dishes!

I will have the lunch menu B course. I always think of appetizers as the face of Chinese and Italian cuisine, so I was curious about today's "face." It arrived and it was quite impressive. I tasted it and thought it was good, not too salty. The green onion ramen was okay. The crab omelette rice surprised me with its sweet egg, it was interesting. The almond jelly dessert was also decent. Thank you for the meal.

This is a Chinese restaurant near Minoh Q's Mall. From the century egg appetizer to the black sesame mochi dessert, I must have said "delicious" so many times. The steamed chicken appetizer sauce is amazing! The aroma and rich flavor of the shark fin soup, the freshness of the steamed shrimp, the irresistible deliciousness of the pork dumplings, and more. Just thinking about it makes me want to go back and eat again. The bill came to 3200 yen for the set course, but I upgraded to the shark fin soup for an extra 800 yen, making it 4000 yen per person.

The soup has a refined and light taste, more like Chinese ramen than Japanese ramen, reminiscent of a large Chinese restaurant in Chinatown rather than a local one. The noodles are thin and curly, giving off a Chinese noodle vibe. The flavor of the noodles complements the soup well, creating a delicious combination. The fried rice is light and fluffy, with a subtle yet elegant taste that is very satisfying. The taste is worth the price, and I am eager to come back again, although it seems like reservations are required at night. As a non-elite member, I would prefer a stronger flavor with lots of artificial seasonings, but overall, the taste is still great.

One of the best Chinese restaurants in Minoh, offering slightly upscale but truly delicious dishes. The parking lot has space for 3 cars in front of the restaurant and a few more along the road. Recommended dishes include the Seafood Ankake with scallops, squid, and shrimp, the Sweet and Sour Pork, and the Soft Shell Crab with aromatic sauce. Don't miss the Dim Sum Assortment, Shrimp Paste in Paper Wrap, and Palace-style Almond Tofu.

First visit. I wanted to find a place for lunch in this area (by car) and found this restaurant on Tabelog. Upon closer inspection, it seems to be a very popular place. Luckily, I was able to get in without waiting as the last order was approaching! I went there because I read in reviews that their Negi Jiru Soba (green onion soup ramen) is delicious, but upon entering, it looked like a high-end Chinese restaurant! Oh, this means I have to try more than just ramen (*'▽') so I decided to go for the lunch course. Let me tell you upfront, it was incredibly delicious and has become my favorite. I have already decided to revisit at night. There aren't many restaurants where I have said "delicious!" at least 10 times while eating, haha. The B course included an appetizer assortment, soup of the day, dim sum trio, special Negi Jiru Soba or stir-fried young chicken with black bean sauce rice, and dessert of the day. You can also order a la carte at night starting from lunchtime! The menu on the blackboard had a variety of luxurious dishes displayed. The prices made me hesitate to order casually, so I decided to come back another time (just the adults, haha). The course portion was just right even for men. The appetizers were top-notch, and jellyfish is a must! The crab soup had just the right balance and was delicious, making you feel warm and cozy with its thick texture. The dim sum arrived in a steamer basket, and opening it with steam rising up gets you excited. So tasty! The special Negi Jiru Soba was a new experience for me! The clear light brown soup had an amazing aroma! It had an elegant scent typical of high-end Chinese ramen. The soup was delicious! What did they put in it? Scallops maybe? It had a refreshing taste yet a strong presence. The thin noodles paired perfectly with it. I finished the soup in no time because it was so delicious that I ended up ordering more beer and Shaoxing wine since lunchtime. The part-time university students working there were all very friendly! They explained the dishes accurately and recommended the specialties of the restaurant. I was impressed by them, even though they were students! I'm not sure if they were actually students, but having a parking lot in front of the restaurant is convenient. If there was a restaurant like this nearby, I would visit it three times a month. Thank you for the meal!

I came to a Chinese restaurant in Minoh, Osaka. The menu is very extensive, and the recommendations are listed on a blackboard, which is nice. Jellyfish, five-ingredient fried rice, seafood soup noodles, fried chicken, xiao long bao, shumai, stir-fried water spinach, garlic shrimp stir-fry, and flat noodles in broth are all delicious. I also ordered steamed grouper. Ate too much, haha.

I finally got to visit a restaurant that I had been checking out since the early stages of the Minoh lunch series. It's called "Chuka." The exterior may not be impressive, but the interior is clean and nice. The customers are mostly women, probably because they recommend dim sum for lunch, which is popular among women. Although there are many female customers, the portions are quite generous, and the woman next to me couldn't finish her meal. They offer an A set with noodles, fried rice, and shrimp tempura, as well as a B set with dim sum as the main dish. I chose the A set. The A set costs 1320 yen and includes special negi soup noodles, fried rice, and shrimp tempura. The noodles have a good amount, similar to regular ramen, so it's quite filling. The shrimp tempura has a thin and elegant coating, and although it's small, it's quite tasty with a sprinkle of salt. The fried rice is lightly seasoned, easy to eat, and seems to be a favorite among women. The negi soup noodles are a simple dish, light and delicious. Overall, considering the portion size and price, it's not bad. They also offer jasmine tea as a free refill. The staff are attentive and there are no major flaws, making it a popular spot. I look forward to trying a different menu next time.

Today, I visited a cemetery in Minoh and stopped by for lunch with my family at Shuka, located in Minoh Que's Mall East. I had previously tried their negi (green onion) soup soba and liked it, so this time I made a reservation to revisit. This popular Chinese restaurant requires reservations, and since it is quite far from Hankyu Minoh Station, it is convenient to visit by car (there are 3 parking spaces in front of the restaurant and 5 spaces in the parking lot across the street). There are three lunch options: A lunch with negi soup soba (1200 yen excluding tax), B course with dim sum as the main dish (2000 yen excluding tax), and a special lunch course with authentic Chinese dishes (3200 yen excluding tax). My family all ordered the A lunch. The soup of the negi soup soba has a gentle flavor with plenty of chicken umami in the salt soup. The noodles are medium-thick egg noodles with a good chewy and smooth texture that matches well with the soup. One downside, as I noticed before, is that there is not enough negi despite it being advertised in the name. The set comes with fried rice and shrimp tempura. The fried rice is fluffy and nicely stir-fried with fragrant flavor, while the shrimp tempura is freshly fried and has a nice bouncy texture. This time, we also ordered dessert (550 yen excluding tax). There are three options: imperial almond tofu, ripe mango pudding, and tapioca coconut milk. I chose the mango pudding, which was delicious with just the right amount of sweetness, although a bit pricey. When it comes to Chinese negi soba, Shuka's version is my favorite compared to the famous Jyuntei in Kobe. It's a family favorite, and we will definitely visit again.

I met up with an acquaintance in Minoh and went to an Italian restaurant, but it was fully booked with a waiting list of 6 groups, so we quickly found another place and called ahead to see if they had space. It was about a 7-minute walk from Q's Mall, and the restaurant had a beautiful atmosphere. Since they didn't have highballs, I had a Dragon Highball made with Shaoxing wine and soda for a toast. The steamed chicken with two types of sauce was delicious, especially the scallion sauce. The sesame sauce was tasty too, but I thought it could use more seafood broth in the xiaolongbao. The sweet and sour pork with black vinegar had a nice tangy flavor, and I finished it quickly. Lastly, we had beef fried rice, which was also delicious with plenty of meat in it. There were many colorful paper notes displayed in the back, showing that it's a popular restaurant. Thank you for the meal.
