Visit date 3/15/2023. A restaurant in the Omote area of Hakodate, "Grand Port Hakodate," where you can enjoy Western cuisine. The atmosphere of the restaurant is very nice. The interior is surrounded by windows overlooking Mt. Hakodate and the sea. On this day, a memorial service for someone who was dear to me was held. Close friends gathered to remember the individual, and it was a truly wonderful gathering. The food was served buffet-style and the quality was excellent. There was a variety of meats such as beef, pork, chicken, and duck. There were also three types of pasta available. Additionally, the head chef of the well-known sushi restaurant "Harusushi" in the Omote area surprised us by serving sushi on the spot. (Please note that sushi is not usually on the menu.) The individual who we were remembering loved karaoke when they were alive, so we played their favorite songs as background music, which brought tears to many people's eyes as they reminisced. It was truly a lovely memorial service. Thank you very much to the staff of the restaurant.

I visited the restaurant on the top floor of a building that also houses Cinema Taiyo. I went for lunch after watching a movie. They offer discounts or services with a ticket stub. Unfortunately, the weather was not great, but it seems like the view would be really nice on a sunny day. I had a curry that was a bit unusual. It was surprisingly spicy and delicious.

The other day, I made a reservation for 2 adults and 1 child for a special anniversary course. I informed them that I have allergies, and they were able to accommodate by changing the course menu. Instead of the 8-course anniversary menu, I received a 6-course menu at a slightly discounted price. I cannot eat wheat, egg whites, cheese, or dairy products, so I imagine it was quite difficult for the kitchen staff to come up with a suitable menu, but they did a fantastic job. The food was delicious, and I am grateful for their efforts. The waitstaff also had to deal with the different course menus, but they explained everything to me politely. Despite the limited lighting due to the pandemic, the view from the upper floors of the building was still nice. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience.

I visited "Gran Port Hakodate" on this day. After finishing the movie, I was all set to go for lunch, but it started raining and I didn't have an umbrella, so I decided to just eat at the same place to avoid getting wet. It was my first visit to this place. I went to the floor on top of the movie theater, on the 7th floor, a little before 12 o'clock. When I entered, there was one other group of customers already there. I sat at a table and could see Mt. Hakodate in front of me. It would have been a nice view if it had been sunny... I looked at the menu but had already made up my mind, so I ordered the March weekday special lunch, the "Hamburger Steak." When I showed my movie ticket, I got a ¥100 discount, so I showed the ticket and got ¥100 off. I'm glad I didn't throw away the ticket! The Hamburger Steak arrived 15 minutes later. Well, it was just okay. Neither good nor bad in taste. Maybe if the view had been nice, the taste would have been a bit different... I regret that it was raining.

We enjoyed a stylish and delicious dinner with a view of the night scenery and fishing fires.

I took the Hokkaido Shinkansen and arrived in Hakodate. Unfortunately, it was raining in the morning on the main second day of my 2-night, 3-day trip. I wanted to have Western food, so I took the Hakodate City Tram from my accommodation in Yunokawa Onsen to this restaurant. The view from the window would have been nice if it had been sunny. I ordered the hashed beef omelette rice set. First, soup and salad were served. The soup had plenty of ingredients and the salad dressing was very tasty. The main dish of hashed beef omelette rice was a perfect match with the soft and fluffy egg texture and tender beef. It was very delicious. It was a moment that made me think that seafood is good, but Western food is also nice.

I visited for lunch. This is Gran Porto in Matsukaze Town. It is located on the 7th floor of the Daimon Building. It is part of the Taiyo Group. The 1st floor is Parlor Taiyo, a pachinko parlor. The 6th floor is Cinema Taiyo, a movie theater. The 7th floor is where this restaurant is located. The 2nd to 5th floors are parking lots. I don't play pachinko or watch movies much, so I had never been to this place before. This time, I entered with the sole purpose of having a meal. The main focus is probably the pachinko parlor, so I was curious about what it would be like. However, taking the elevator from the parking lot directly to the restaurant, I didn't feel like I was in a pachinko parlor at all. When I got off the elevator, I could see the entrance to the restaurant. I entered to see what it was like. The interior is quite spacious and open, with a glass front that offers a view of Hakodate Mountain and Omorihama. It's a pretty nice view. The staff recommended a seat with the best view, and I agreed. I placed my order. They are currently having a curry fair, but I decided to go with the recommended dish of Pan-seared Sea Bream with Cassis Scent. It comes with soup, salad, and a choice of bread or rice for 1450 yen. I added a drink for an extra 100 yen and also ordered a coffee. First, the soup and salad were served. The soup was consomme and the salad was tasty, but I wished there was a bit more. Before I could finish, the bread and pan-seared sea bream arrived. The sea bream looked colorful and the skin was crispy, providing a nice texture. The balance of the accompanying vegetables was also good. The cassis sauce was delicious. However, as a main dish in a French style, I felt like it lacked in volume. The taste was good though. A couple arrived later and they kept mentioning how great the view was. The view was indeed nice. Overall, the atmosphere felt like being in a restaurant on the top floor of a hotel. The staff's service was attentive and good. The ambiance would probably be better for dinner to fully enjoy the view. Thank you for the meal.

Revisited☆ The usual course lunch for 2000 yen☆ I took my baby for the first time to my favorite restaurant♬♪♫ They removed a chair and allowed me to attach the baby stroller to the table, or they had a child seat that could be attached to the table, so I used that option ( ´ ▽｀ )ノ They even provided children's spoons, forks, and plates without me having to ask. The food at this restaurant is delicious, and the 2000 yen course lunch is great value for money. The service is also excellent, making the dining experience enjoyable ↑↑ Good service is really important, right! The appetizers this time were all delicious♬♪♫ Even though I wouldn't usually order chicken gizzards individually, they were tasty when eaten this way. The pasta with summer vegetables and small shrimp was also delicious! They offer bread for seconds, and the meat dishes - beef loin with rosemary sauce and lamb cutlet with fresh tomato sauce - were both tender and tasty. The dessert consisted of a three-layer jelly, chocolate roll, and fruit choux, and it's always exciting to see what they will serve. The three-layer jelly with acerola, grapefruit, and grapes was a perfect combination! It was refreshing and visually appealing. I found out that I can bring my baby here, so I want to come back every month or so. By the way, they hold a lunch buffet on the third Saturday and Sunday of every month, but the schedule may vary depending on private bookings or other factors. In August, it's on the 18th and 19th, and in September, it's on the 15th and 16th. The prices are 1500 yen for adults, 850 yen for elementary school students, and free for toddlers✿I prefer the course meal, so I avoid those days - haha. Revisited☆ The usual course lunch for 2000 yen☆ At first, there were few customers, and it was quiet, but by the time we left, the restaurant was full of customers! They are child-friendly, with children's chairs and other amenities available. The restaurant offers a 2000 yen course lunch that includes pasta, dessert, main dish, bread, and drinks. You can even have seconds of bread, and they have a variety of appetizers that are visually appealing and delicious❤❤❤ This time, the appetizers included chicken gizzards, hokke, salmon, yellowtail, and carrots... I may have oversimplified, but they were all delicious☆ The chicken gizzards came with potato chips - a nice touch! The pasta with shrimp and fresh tomatoes also had surf clam in it. The shrimp was juicy, and the garlic flavor was just right. The pasta was thin and delicious♬♪♫ The bread is served with olive oil, and it's pretty standard. The main dish was beef with sweet vegetables like turnips and lotus roots, which were delicious. The meat itself was also tasty✿The dessert was a seasonal fruit something... I really liked this one! It had a pear mousse with vanilla ice cream on top and a soft cookie-like base with mixed fruits inside. It was moist and delicious☆ I'm looking forward to going back again!!+.+ﾟd(´∀｀*)Good!! Revisited☆ The usual course lunch for 2000 yen☆ They are currently offering a limited-time lunch for only 500 yen, which is quite a deal↑↑ They used to ask if you wanted seconds of bread, but last time they didn't, so I thought maybe they had stopped offering it, but this time they did offer it... so you can have seconds of bread! I declined as I was quite full, but it seems you can have seconds twice ( ´艸｀) haha As always, the 2000 yen course lunch with appetizers, bread, pasta, main dish, drinks, and dessert is a great value. There are many appetizers to choose from, all delicious✿The main dishes often feature pork, but the pasta and desserts are different every time, which makes it exciting, and the portions are quite generous. I really recommend this lunch. This time, shiitake mushrooms were included in the appetizers, pasta, and main dish (ノд｀＠) The shiitake mushroom spring rolls for the appetizer were delicious.

There is a movie theater on the 6th floor, so I usually go a little early to have a meal there. It seems you can get a discount with the movie ticket stub if you watch the movie first. When I go, it's usually late, so I'm a bit worried, but the atmosphere and taste are top-notch. The pasta was very delicious, and they even served an unexpected dish which was wonderful. They are famous for dishes like omurice. I tried the soup curry once, but it wasn't that great. You don't get rice unless you order a set... There is a terrace facing Mt. Hakodate, which seems nice for lunch with a good view. The night view is not that impressive. It's a shame to avoid this place just because it's located in a pachinko parlor.

My wife and kids ordered a plate with shrimp fry, white fish fry, and hamburger, while I chose the minced cutlet. I will refrain from commenting on the fried foods due to the price limitations. The taste of the demi-glace sauce is not particularly authentic. The pasta may also have a very ordinary taste. However, what I can highly appreciate is the excellent customer service and the pleasant Mediterranean resort-like atmosphere of the restaurant. The bright blue and white interior exudes a refreshing cleanliness. The view is also quite satisfying. The skilled and unpretentious customer service is what really stands out, surpassing the service in many hotels nowadays. (I used to work part-time at a French restaurant during my student days.) The onion soup was outstanding. It had a rich and complex flavor that cannot be achieved with instant soup. Another pleasant surprise was the iced tea served after the meal. It had a strong taste and aroma of well-brewed Darjeeling tea, comparable to that of a nice café. If the price limitation were removed, I imagine that they could create even more delicious dishes. The beautifully presented food on the large white plates also shows a sense of style. Overall, I can confidently recommend this restaurant as a place where you won't be disappointed. I wished I could have tried more dishes at night. I have some lingering thoughts about this place, and I have decided to revisit it next time I come to Hakodate. If possible, a date night would be better than bringing children...

We went there with my daughters in August 2008. Along with memories of our trip to Hakodate, the restaurant everyone unanimously wants to visit again is this one. Located on the 7th floor of a building housing a pachinko parlor, we were a bit nervous before entering, but once the elevator reached the 7th floor, we were greeted by a quiet restaurant atmosphere. The night view, which we didn't expect to be so wonderful, was amazing, and the food and warm service were top-notch. Originally recommended to us as a place to enjoy delicious Western cuisine with fresh vegetables from our hotel, the attention to detail in both the vegetables and meat was evident in every bite, and despite the high quality, the bill for the three of us was less than 5000 yen. I only remember that every dish, from the seafood salad to the balsamic sauce hamburger to the dessert, was delicious. The staff kindly accommodated our request for a sauce that wasn't on the menu that day, and their dedicated service warmed our hearts.

A restaurant located on the 7th floor that is easy for individuals to enter. The cinema on the 6th floor, 'Cinema Taiyo Hakodate', offers different half-price ticket benefits for movie viewing depending on the day of the week and lunch or dinner. The restaurant has around 40 seats, and if it is reserved for a group, a notice will be posted at entrances on the 1st and 7th floors indicating that individuals cannot enter. You can specify the doneness of the Hokkaido beef steak, but dessert after the course meal requires a separate order. Even if you dine at the restaurant, parking on floors 2 to 5 is free. I did not order any alcoholic beverages this time due to my participation in an evening event.
