I've been wanting to visit this restaurant since it opened. I tried a few times to go near opening time by car, but there were only three parking spaces and they were always full, so I gave up. Later on, I realized that it was only very crowded around the opening time of 11 o'clock, and after 1 pm, it was surprisingly easy to get in. The first time I visited (around early July), I didn't know this, so I arrived around 10:20 and there was already one car parked, so I parked next to it, wrote my name on the waiting list paper, and waited in the car for the opening. The second time I visited, I arrived around 1:30 pm and was able to enter without any problem. Upon entering, you purchase a ticket at the machine. Both times, I chose the 1,500 yen all-you-can-eat hamburger course. For an additional fee of around 300 yen (if I remember correctly), you can also choose a cheese topping, but I skipped it this time. The seating is guided, but for some reason, both times they tried to seat me at a table furthest from the all-you-can-eat curry and rice, near the restroom, so I requested to be seated closer to the all-you-can-eat section. The hamburgers are not the juicy type with lots of meat juice, but rather have a strong spice flavor and a light taste. When freshly grilled, they are decent, but during less busy times, they are kept warm on a grill covered with a food cover, making them drier. The curry also has a strong spice flavor similar to the hamburgers, so they may be using leftover hamburgers cut up as curry ingredients. Honestly, I didn't like the taste of the curry. There is a note advising customers to not just eat hamburgers, but also to eat rice and curry evenly. I followed this advice, but I felt a bit annoyed when the staff specifically reminded me to eat rice as well when serving the hamburgers. If they are truly concerned about customers' health, I would like them to consider adding more vegetables to the curry or miso soup. However, being able to eat a lot of hamburgers for 1,500 yen is nice, and I feel like I don't have to force myself to eat a lot. I might continue to use this restaurant in the future, also because I want to see the pet Aibo (laughs). For your information, I ate 18 hamburgers each time and it was tough. (I know I complain a lot, but I actually ate quite a lot, so someone might point that out.)
