Today, I went to Harukas for dinner with my parents. Since you can't make reservations in advance on weekends, we went there directly to make a reservation. Before 6 pm, there was already a line in front of the restaurant. Reservations were made through Line, and we were the fifth in line. The restaurant was spacious, so while looking at the menu, it was our turn. We were seated at a table where we could barely see the view, even though I preferred a window seat. We ordered by scanning a QR code on our phones. My daughter had her first kids' meal, my wife had beef pho and Caesar salad, and my husband, father, and I chose the set course. The appetizers were all very luxurious and delicious. Next, I ordered Bolognese, but it took a very long time to arrive. Unfortunately, it was not as expected, with only a little ground meat and a mild tomato flavor. The main course was chicken, which was decent but overall lacked flavor. The dessert, chocolate ice cream, was the best part. In the end, the course took too long. I thought ordering individual dishes would have been better, but everything tasted mediocre, so I won't be going back. Thank you for the meal.

After a long time, I went to a cafe and found a nice spacious seat with a great view of the area near Harukas. The drink bar here is amazing - you can choose the coffee beans and use a machine to drip the coffee just like a barista. They also have various flavored syrups for you to blend your own drinks. The selection of teas is also great. As for the sweets and savory items, they were decent. The scones had cream inside, which was not my preference as I like warm scones with clotted cream. However, they had waffles that you could top with cream or jam, which was a nice touch. The jellies were a bit too firm to scoop with a spoon. The overall portion was just right, and if the menu changes with the seasons, I would consider coming back again. There were some interesting items on the food menu that caught my eye, so I may visit again in the future. Thank you for the meal! ^^

Hello, this is Otsuka ☺️ This restaurant has a spacious and stylish interior with a great atmosphere. Even on weekdays, there are already several groups waiting when it opens! It gets full within 30 minutes of opening, so if you prefer terrace seating, make a reservation! They have a BEVERAGE BAR with a wide variety of drinks. You can mix syrups with soda water or just have regular juice! They even have a wide selection of tea leaves! They offer drip coffee, cafe latte, and more... I couldn't try them all ☕️ They have a diverse lunch menu with pasta, pizza, omurice, grilled dishes, and more. I had a rich and delicious Carbonara and the pizza was tasty too, although a bit on the salty side 😂 Looking at what others were ordering, everything seemed delicious! So many tempting options 😂 I definitely need to go back again!!!

It feels like a slightly more upscale version of a buffet restaurant than a regular buffet restaurant. The differences include: in the regular buffet restaurant, there are many semi-private booths, a wide variety of desserts, and a variety of drinks like mixed juices. In the upscale buffet restaurant, there seemed to be only one semi-private booth (at first glance), the prices are slightly higher, there are very few desserts, but there is a drink bar with a good selection of unique drinks. They provide child seats for families, but there are only two children's menu options and no vegetables. If children are old enough to share with family, sharing might be a better option. It seems to be popular for gatherings like girls' nights out, so the turnover rate is slow. The food is just as good as other buffet restaurants.

I went to Tennoji for the first time in a while. I was invited by a friend for lunch. We decided to go to Kintetsu Department Store without a specific place in mind. It seems to have recently opened, and the atmosphere was nice. They have a la carte options, but this time we chose the course with drinks included. In the end, the dessert was also very filling. It seems like it's difficult to get a window seat without a reservation. The interior is stylish, and there are plenty of drink options, making it a comfortable space. I recommend it for dates or girls' gatherings. If it's just girls, the course may be too much. Thank you for the meal.

My recommendation is: - Bismarck con Funghi: Pizza with a fluffy and chewy crust, topped with half-cooked egg that goes perfectly with the saltiness of prosciutto. Enjoy the luxurious flavor of mushrooms as well! - S.T. Caesar Salad with Kyoto eggs "Nokan" and Okinawa bacon: Cut the bacon and bread with scissors, mix with lettuce, and drizzle with rich half-cooked egg dressing for a heavenly taste. - Beverage Bar: Enjoy coffee, tea, juice, craft ginger ale, and original drinks at the drink bar for 600 yen.

On April 12, 2023, a popular cafe from Nara will be opening in Osaka! The 10m long beverage bar offers not only coffee, tea, and juice, but also original drinks that you can create yourself. My recommendations are: Truffle Cream Omelette Rice with Shimeji Mushrooms for 1900 yen - a buttery rice omelette with a hint of truffle aroma, topped with mushrooms, very delicious! US Beef Steak with Chimichurri Sauce for 2600 yen - the meat is tender and the sauce with cilantro and basil is refreshing, incredibly tasty! My top menu picks are: Salmon Carpaccio with Instant Smoked Salmon for 1400 yen - when you open the glass lid, a fragrant smoky aroma fills the air! The instant smoked salmon melts in your mouth! Strawberry, Pistachio, and Honey Croffle for 1300 yen - the crispy and fluffy croffle with strawberry and pistachio ice cream sandwiched inside is a delightful treat!

The cute afternoon tea set "STRAWBERRY & FRAMBOISE" is available from 3:00 to 4:30. My recommendation is the adorable strawberry macaron and the gently sweet strawberry milk parfait! The crispy and fluffy croffle is delicious with plenty of butter. For tea, I recommend the mild flavored candy. Here is the menu: - SPECIALTY: Croffle with French fermented butter, strawberry sauce & honey - SAVORY: Strawberry and salmon vinaigrette marinated, prosciutto with strawberry tartine, fresh blueberry sauce, low-temperature cooked chicken ham and truffle-scented rich sandwich - GATEAU: Strawberry and 3 cheese macaron, strawberry milk parfait, strawberry and crumble fromage blanc, strawberry and framboise eclair, canele with rum and vanilla scent - BEVERAGE: Bar Reservation is required at least 2 days in advance. Price is 2,800 yen (tax included) per person, available for orders starting from 2 people.

I used it for lunch with my friends. The drink bar was well stocked and enjoyable. The interior of the restaurant was clean and we were able to relax.

I went to lunch with friends. I have visited this restaurant in Nara a few times in the past. The food and beverage bar were generally highly rated. I thought about coming back at night for the good view from the seats. The staff, with a wide range of ages, were friendly and easy to talk to, but the person who seemed to be the manager did not provide good service, which stood out negatively.
