During a business trip in Fukuoka, I visited Takachiho Kitchen for a solo lunch. The location is about a 5-minute walk from Yakuin Station, and within walking distance from Tenjin Station as well. Takachiho Kitchen has relocated from Takachiho Town in Miyazaki Prefecture and is a popular spot to enjoy Miyazaki's specialty dish, Chicken Nanban. I arrived around 11:40 and found a stylish interior with mismatched chairs. There are 24 seats at tables (the counter seemed unused). There were already 5 groups of customers with a total of 5 people. I sat at a 4-person table. I ordered the Chicken Nanban set C mix (breast & thigh meat) for 980 yen, a large serving of Nanban for an extra 350 yen, and an additional tartar sauce for 110 yen, totaling 1,440 yen. You can get a free refill of rice up to one bowl. It took a bit of time, but the food arrived in about 20 minutes. Under the extra tartar sauce, there were 6 large pieces of chicken (3 breast, 3 thigh), along with a side salad and spaghetti. The meal also came with rice (mixed grain), miso soup, and bean sprouts. The chicken was incredibly tender, and the sauce and tartar were delicious! There was too much food, so of course, I had a second helping of rice. Takachiho Kitchen offers excellent service and value. The place was already full before noon on that day. I recommend aiming for right after they open at 11:30 and visiting this fantastic spot!

I visited this place because I had been curious for a while. I chose the Ebi Fry & Chicken Nanban set meal. The Ebi Fry... the shrimp inside is small. The Chicken Nanban is made with chicken breast. The sweet vinegar and tartar sauce go well together and there is plenty of it. The cost performance is not bad. Thank you for the meal.

I missed lunch and found myself in despair around 3 pm near Imaizumi. I searched on Google and remembered visiting this place about 5 years ago. So, I decided to pay a visit. [Ordered Menu] - Chicken Nanban & Menkatsu I was indecisive but ended up ordering this. The chicken breast was surprisingly tender and delicious. The Menkatsu was packed with meat and was excellent. I even ended up getting a second serving of rice. [Impressions] It was my first visit in a long time, but the taste and portion size were just as great as before. Smoking is allowed after 3 pm, which was convenient. The staff is friendly, but since there was only one waitress, you have to bring your empty bowl to the counter. [Recommended for] When you want to eat a hearty meal for lunch or when you missed lunch. [Location] Near Sankakuya, in front of Seven-Eleven.

I visited during the day on a regular day! There was no line, but the restaurant was full! I ordered the Chicken Nanban set meal (thigh meat) with fried horse mackerel and fried shrimp!! The visual presentation was amazing, with plenty of tartar sauce. The juicy chicken thigh meat was complemented perfectly by the Nanban vinegar's balanced acidity and sweetness, making it really delicious! The thigh meat itself was quite large, as you can see in the photo. And all this for 990 yen is quite a great deal! The additional fried shrimp was crispy with firm flesh, and the horse mackerel was fluffy with a high quality taste, both really delicious! Rice refills are free, and even though the first serving was quite generous, I ended up getting a refill and was really full! The rice was so tasty! The meat was delicious, and I left very satisfied! Thank you for the meal! This place is definitely worth a visit!

The generous amount of tartar sauce and refreshing Nanban vinegar create a nice balance, harmonizing well with the juicy chicken. The contrast between the cold sauce and hot meat adds an interesting touch. Overall, it's a dish that makes you want to keep eating. Be careful not to overeat.

I've been avoiding fried food for a while, but my body has been starting to show signs of a lack of fat, so today I decided to indulge in some fried food at this restaurant. "Takachiho Kitchen" is known for its lunch menu with a lot of fried chicken nanban and other fried dishes. When I entered, about half of the tables were already occupied, but I was seated at a table for two. The structure of the restaurant was different, with a few steps leading up from the entrance and a staircase leading downstairs to the kitchen. The dining area had a counter for orders and a simple kitchen for serving drinks. Looking at the lunch menu on the table, it was mostly fried dishes. Besides chicken nanban, they also had shrimp fry, horse mackerel fry, minced cutlet, croquette, and more. I wanted to try everything, but I had been avoiding fried food for a few days, so I decided to order the standard chicken nanban set with "B juicy thigh" for 980 yen. The dish that came out was indeed huge! The chicken pieces were heavy and substantial, and there were four of them! The tartar sauce was generously spread, and the rice was mixed grain for a healthy touch. The meat was really juicy, and the sauce-soaked coating went well with the rice. You can have one free refill of rice, but the chicken nanban was so filling that I couldn't ask for more. In this day and age, being able to eat this set meal for less than 1,000 yen feels like a dream. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Hello everyone, what's up? It's MoriP, who loves to eat his way around Fukuoka! Today, I visited Takachiho Kitchen, a chicken nanban restaurant from Miyazaki, now in Fukuoka. Established in 2011 in Yakuin. I tried their Chicken Nanban Set Meal Mix (breast & thigh) for 980 yen. The portion size is huge with 4 large pieces of fried chicken, free refills of spaghetti, and multigrain rice. It also comes with salad, namul, and miso soup. The tartar sauce has a strong mayonnaise flavor with a hint of onion and a good balance of acidity. The fried chicken is juicy and tender, with the breast meat being soft and flavorful. I personally prefer the thigh meat! The spaghetti is al dente and heavily seasoned, which may be too strong for those who prefer lighter flavors. I was lucky to avoid the line when I arrived, but it was packed when I left! The stylish interior attracts a diverse crowd, including groups of women, couples, solo diners, and salarymen. It's clear that Takachiho Kitchen is loved by many different people.

Located about a 3-minute walk from Fukuoka Yakuin Station, this restaurant is on the first floor of a building and has a stylish atmosphere for a set meal. The seating is not extensive, and it seemed like the cooking was done on the basement floor. There were mainly female customers. The Chicken Nanban Set Meal C (with breast and thigh meat) had options for thigh meat, breast meat, and additional fried foods. Each piece was large, and the balance of tartar sauce and sweet vinegar was good. The seasoning was on the strong side. You can get a second helping of rice, but the set meal itself was quite substantial even without it.

I used it when I visited Hakata on business. The entrance to the shop was a bit hard to find, but I finally arrived. It was lunchtime, but I was able to sit down without waiting. I was wondering where the kitchen was, but it seems to be in the basement. The shop seems to have a two-story structure. The menu mainly consists of chicken nanban, shrimp fry, and horse mackerel fry. This time, I ordered chicken nanban and horse mackerel fry. A plate with two pieces of chicken and horse mackerel, salad, Neapolitan pasta, and sautéed burdock is served. It's quite a generous portion. The rice is mixed grain rice. The horse mackerel fry here is quite delicious too. The generous tartar sauce is also good. However, there are many shops in Hakata that offer delicious horse mackerel fry. The large chicken nanban had a sauce that I personally found a bit strong, but since you can get a refill of rice, it's okay. With this volume, it's around a thousand yen, which is quite cost-effective. Thank you for the meal.

I love chicken nanban. When I was a new employee, I was in Miyazaki, and I was impressed by the local chicken thigh grill and chicken nanban that I had back then! I heard about a restaurant serving authentic Miyazaki chicken nanban coming to Yakuin about 10 years ago. This place is said to have come from Miyazaki. I finally went there after a long time, with my former boss. The stylish appearance of the restaurant made us two middle-aged men stand out. However, we ordered the chicken nanban mix, with thigh and breast mix for 980 yen. Surrounded by plenty of tartar sauce and lots of meat, we enjoyed the meal happily. The thigh was very juicy and flavorful, while the breast was surprisingly tender and moist. It went well with the tartar sauce. We finished it in no time, but we were left feeling very full, which might affect our work in the afternoon... It was delicious - thank you for the meal.

This is my first visit. It is a restaurant specializing in Chicken Nanban. It was past 3 pm and I was struggling to find lunch, so I decided to enter this place. I am grateful for their continuous operation. The food is prepared downstairs and served on the first floor, which is a unique setup for a restaurant. I ordered the Takachiho Kitchen set meal, which includes Chicken Nanban, croquette, fried horse mackerel, and fried shrimp. Everything was delicious! There was pasta noodles underneath everything. The pasta had a generous amount of oil.

Before 3 pm, most restaurants had already finished their lunch service, so I searched nearby and found this place. They don't have a specific lunch menu, maybe they serve food all day. It's a relief for those looking for a place to eat lunch. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is very open and spacious. Since it was an odd time, it was not crowded. It seems like the cooking is done downstairs. I like chicken nanban, but I was afraid I might get tired of it, so I hesitated between that and the shrimp fry. I ended up ordering the combo of fried horse mackerel and chicken nanban (980 yen, cash only). Wow, what a huge portion. Now, what do I do? The dish came with two large pieces of chicken nanban and two pieces of horse mackerel fry, generously topped with tartar sauce. The price seemed very reasonable considering you get two pieces of horse mackerel. The tartar sauce was delicious with onions and other ingredients. The chicken was well-seasoned with sweet vinegar, and it tasted great with the tartar sauce. But the portions were so big. The horse mackerel fry was also large and delicious. It came with stir-fried bean sprouts, ketchup-flavored pasta, and a small amount of kinpira burdock. The rice was mixed grain rice. I saw a man getting a rice refill, so it seems like refills are allowed. The meal also came with miso soup. Both the chicken nanban and horse mackerel fry were delicious, but there was too much for me to finish, so I took the leftovers home. It's nice to be able to enjoy authentic flavors from Fukuoka here.

The restaurant was small, so even with a wait of 5 groups ahead, I waited for about 20 minutes!! I ordered half portions of chicken thigh and breast, but I wasn't told which was which, so I didn't know until I started eating. You can add extra tartar sauce for 100 yen, but even without it, the portion was generous! The flavor was rich, so it went well with rice!! The staff seemed busy as there was only one person working!

I've always wanted to go to this restaurant!!! A while back, I went to buy a bento box after school, but it was closed by chance. When I went to see it with my friends after a long time, it was open and I was very happy ☺️✌!! I ordered the Takachiho Kitchen set meal!! The portion was just right and everything was delicious!! The rice was gone quickly at first and it was also very delicious! I went thinking that I could use PayPay, but I couldn't use it and I didn't bring cash, so I was in a panic. However, the staff came up with a Good idea and it saved me!!

I went to Takachiho Kitchen after a long time because I was craving their Chicken Nanban! Last time, I had a mix of breast and thigh meat, so this time I chose thigh meat. It was big, juicy, tender, and incredibly delicious! I'm curious about their other menu items too. I also want to have the Chicken Nanban beer that I had last time again!

One of the few places in Fukuoka where you can eat Miyazaki-style Chicken Nanban. The closing time is early, so I always go around 2-3 pm, which is a relatively smooth time to enter. When it comes to Miyazaki-style Chicken Nanban, "Ogura" is the place to go, but compared to that place, the flavor here is a bit mild and easy for women to eat. In fact, there are many women eating alone here. You can have unlimited rice refills and the portion size is good, so it's also good for big eaters. The short waiting time is also nice! This is a place that you will want to visit regularly, so I recommend it for Chicken Nanban in Fukuoka!

(2022.04.27) Chicken Nanban, beloved by the people of Miyazaki Prefecture, is a dish that not only appears in restaurants but also graces the dining tables of households. One of the top 50 Chicken Nanban choices by Miyazaki locals, the café "Young Echo" in Takachiho, relocated to Yakuin in Fukuoka 10 years ago. While the shop in Yakuin used to be called "Young Echo," it was later renamed "Takachiho Kitchen" to better convey the authentic Miyazaki flavor. Known for its Chicken Nanban, the shop has gained popularity, often filled with customers, especially women, during lunchtime. I visited this place three years ago for the last time, craving the overflowing sweetness of Chicken Nanban. I chose thigh meat from the options of breast meat, thigh meat, or a mix. The juicy tenderness of the lightly fried chicken, soaked in a generous amount of sweet vinegar, perfectly balances the sweetness, acidity, and the combination with tartar sauce, highlighting the essence of Chicken Nanban.

The owner of Takachiho Kitchen in Yakuin is from Takachiho, specializing in Chicken Nanban. Miyazaki Prefecture is known for its chicken, so expectations are high. You can choose between breast meat, thigh meat, or a mix. I tried the thigh meat and it was delicious. The batter is soaked in sauce, making it juicy and satisfying. It's not too sweet, with a refreshing taste. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is calm and cafe-like. - Restaurant Information - Name: Takachiho Kitchen Hours: 11:00-22:00 Phone: - Price: Chicken Nanban Set 950 yen Closed on Sundays Private rooms: None Location: 1-14-27 Yakuin, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture.

I recently visited a restaurant in Yakuin called "Takachiho Kitchen," which is one of the top 50 places for Miyazaki Chicken Nanban. The menu had a lot of options, but I decided to try the recommended Takachiho Kitchen set meal for 1350 yen. This set meal included Chicken Nanban, shrimp fry, horse mackerel fry, and croquette - a luxurious combination! It's no wonder this place was chosen as one of the top 50. They also offer takeout, so you can enjoy their delicious food at home too. The portion size was quite generous, which would make men happy. Thank you for the delicious meal!

A few minutes' walk from Yakuin Station, I visited Takachiho Kitchen to try their delicious Chicken Nanban for lunch, which had been rumored to be tasty. I had been wanting to go for a while, and finally had the chance to visit! I ordered the Chicken Nanban set with thigh meat without hesitation. The juicy thigh meat Chicken Nanban was delicious and did not disappoint with its tenderness. The tartar sauce was also to my liking. It was definitely worth the visit.

I came to Tenjin with my wife and visited this restaurant after a long time. The interior has a stylish design with exposed brick walls and a bar-like atmosphere. It may not be very child-friendly. I ordered the Chicken Nanban thigh, while my wife ordered the Ladies' Lunch set. The meat portion was small, but it came with dessert, which was a new addition. The taste was delicious, especially the Chicken Nanban which I think is the best here. The crispy batter, similar to shredded seaweed, is its distinctive feature. I wonder how they make it. The dessert in my wife's lunch set was soy milk soft serve ice cream. I tried a bite and it had a strong soy milk flavor. It wasn't too sweet and had a refreshing aftertaste, suitable even for kids. I don't come to Tenjin often these days, but I would like to visit again if I have the chance.
