I ordered the B lunch and cream croquette lunch. The B lunch came with potage soup, which was creamy, rich, and delicious. The shrimp fry was crispy and had large, tasty pieces of shrimp. The hamburger was thick and flavorful, with a unique sauce that had a hint of creaminess, making it delicious and original. The crab cream croquette was very rich with a slightly firm cream filling. The sauce was rich and plentiful, adding to the overall volume. The soup was a daikon and egg drop soup, which was simply delicious. I chose bread over rice, and the French bread was slightly chewy on the inside and very crispy on the outside, with a delicious flavor. The coffee served after the meal was strong and delicious. The atmosphere in the restaurant was a bit noisy and busy, and the service was a bit rushed and impersonal. Overall, the food was good, especially the special lunch set which offers good value for money.

I visited a traditional French restaurant in an old-fashioned town that had a good reputation. The interior had a counter on the first floor and table seats on the second floor, so we were usually seated on the second floor. The napkins had an original swan design, which was cute. Lunch started from around 900 yen, but my husband and I were curious about the "B Lunch Coarse-ground Hamburg & Shrimp Fry" priced at 1,960 yen, so we ordered that. We were served bread, soup, and salad. The soup was delicious! It was a classic thick and creamy corn soup, which was very satisfying. The bread was large, with a crispy crust, soft inside, and a slightly salty taste. It was the type of bread I liked. At this point, we were quite satisfied and our stomachs were quite full. I gave one of the two breads to my husband. The shrimp fry had a thick and juicy shrimp inside with a crispy coating. The hamburger was so thick that I couldn't cut it with chopsticks. It was packed with meat and had a meaty texture, even more than a steak. It was cooked thoroughly inside, and the demi-glace sauce had a deep flavor. The combination of the meat and sauce was amazing. The hamburger was so thick that I felt like asking for extra sauce. I requested a cute plate when ordering, as I had seen in reviews. Coffee or tea also came with the meal. Even though I gave my husband one bread, he was already full! The +130 yen extra rice he ordered was also a huge portion! It was a very filling meal. When we visited on a holiday, the second floor was almost full. The age group was older, and most people were eating quietly, so we could relax. It's reassuring to make a reservation. The bread and soup were delicious, and the meatiness of the hamburger was impressive! The restaurant is conveniently located near JR Uji Station, but there is no parking lot. The restaurant is also taking thorough measures against COVID-19.

I found out there was a Western-style restaurant in the neighborhood and decided to go there with my son in the light rain. The first floor had a counter with available seats and a kitchen, and we were led to the second floor. There was only one lady serving on the floor. We both had a satisfying lunch. I think serving food on larger plates makes it easier to eat.

On this day, I had work in Uji again, so I went to my favorite restaurant, "Suwanhe." As usual, I sat at a table on the second floor, and it was unusually quiet that day. Perhaps it's because of the Omicron variant? The special lunch menu featured pork loin cutlet as the main dish. Sounds good! The special lunch includes a daily changing main dish and a choice of one of the following main dishes: shrimp fry, white fish fry, or oyster fry (seasonal). I'll have the special lunch with shrimp fry, please. The special lunch costs 1,060 yen. The homemade vegetable salad was fresh and delicious. The soup was also tasty as always. The main dish consisted of a large pork cutlet with mustard sauce drizzled in a mesh pattern. The meat was tender and flavorful, with the mustard adding a nice kick to the sauce. The shrimp fry was served with homemade tartar sauce. The shrimp was firm and tasty, and the mild tartar sauce was delicious. Even the macaroni salad on the side was tasty. After the meal, I enjoyed a drink from the set and relaxed before leaving. It was another fulfilling and delicious lunchtime. Looking at the menu for the day, I suddenly felt like having the amazing cream croquette again, so I'll definitely order that next month when I come back. Thank you for the meal!

I have visited my favorite Western-style restaurant many times. Since I was working nearby, I naturally had lunch here. I arrived just after they opened, so I had no problem getting a seat, but when I left the restaurant, I noticed a sign by the entrance saying "Fully booked by reservation for today." It might be wise to make a reservation if you plan to visit. As I have mentioned many times before, the vegetables and rice here are homemade. That's why the food tastes so delicious! On this day, I had the hamburger steak that I had enjoyed before. The hamburger steak lunch set costs 940 yen. The salad is made with homemade vegetables, crunchy and fresh, and very tasty. The consomme soup was also delicious, and I couldn't help but admire it every time I took a sip. And now, the hamburger steak. It was beautifully presented, with various grilled vegetables arranged under the hamburger steak. First, the hamburger steak. It was crispy on the outside, with plenty of demiglace sauce. The coarsely ground meat was cooked to a firm texture, giving it a nice charred flavor. The sauce was rich and flavorful, with a strong aroma and smoothness from the cheese. The cheese aroma was stronger than last time, giving it a rich and delicious taste. The grilled vegetables were a nice accompaniment, offering a break from the meat. I particularly liked the mini-sized carrots, both in appearance and taste. It was delicious again that day. I really like the hamburger steak here. The generous portion of grilled vegetables added to my satisfaction. If you are in Uji, be sure to stop by and try it out. Thank you for the meal!

Special lunch for ¥1060 includes a daily main dish (breaded pork loin) and a side of shrimp fry (you can choose from shrimp fry, white fish fry, or oyster fry). It also comes with homemade salad, egg soup, rice (or bread), and a drink. The pork loin is generously topped with cheese and demi-glace sauce, rich and delicious. The shrimp fry was also delicious with a firm texture. The vegetables and rice are fresh local produce from Ujita-hara, including lemon, arugula, coriander, parsley, and other French cuisine ingredients grown on-site. The vegetables were fresh and delicious. This popular local restaurant was full as soon as it opened. The price is reasonable for a satisfying and filling lunch.

Today, my family and I came to this place recommended by Mairebi (ФωФ). It's a Western-style restaurant located on a narrow street right in the middle between JR Uji Station and Uji Hashi Street. The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere with soft background music playing. The interior is small, with a kitchen at the back of the 1st floor, a high counter with 4 seats in the front, and a spacious 2nd floor with 7 tables for 2-4 people each. The place is run by a couple in their 40s or 50s. The menu offers a variety of dishes including set meals with a choice of rice or bread, pasta, and more. I chose the "Special Lunch" which had two main options, and I went for the "Breaded Pork Loin with Tomato Sauce" since they were out of oyster fry that day. My family enjoyed the "Cream Croquette" with rice. We had iced coffee and milk tea for drinks. The restaurant was about 70% full as it was a holiday. We started with a comforting onion consommé soup, followed by our rice dishes and a plate with the main courses. The rice was actually mixed grain rice, not white rice. The breaded pork loin with tomato sauce was delicious with a nice balance of flavors. The white fish fry with tartar sauce was also tasty. The vegetable salad was fresh and colorful. Overall, everything was well-prepared and we enjoyed our meal. I was a bit disappointed that the rice wasn't white rice, but I would definitely come back during oyster season. The service was good. No wheelchair accessibility, unconfirmed on the 1st floor, but there is a washlet on the 2nd floor. No parking available.

Every time I visit Uji, I always stop by this restaurant. On this day, I came with my colleagues for lunch after work. As I've mentioned before, this restaurant is particular about using homemade vegetables and rice. That's why the vegetables and rice are delicious, and of course, the dishes are also carefully prepared and delicious. I've tried various dishes before, but on this day, I decided to try the hamburger for the first time. ◆ Coarse-ground hamburger lunch including tax 940 yen When the hamburger arrived, I couldn't help but smile because it looked so delicious! The large hamburger was generously topped with demi-glace sauce, shining alluringly. It was drizzled with cream, and upon closer inspection, I noticed plenty of mushrooms. On the side, there were sautéed colorful vegetables such as green beans, eggplant, bell peppers, and shimeji mushrooms. Furthermore, there was pilaf under the hamburger, which was fantastic. The hamburger was coarse-ground and meaty, and the sauce was delicious, truly scrumptious! This hamburger felt like a top-notch creation from a dedicated Western-style restaurant. The sautéed vegetables were also delicious, and the pilaf mixed with the demi-glace sauce and hamburger juices was incredibly tasty. Not only the main hamburger but also the vegetables and pilaf were so enjoyable. It was the best hamburger. This hamburger was truly delicious, and the cost performance was excellent! I want to eat this hamburger again next time I go. Just thinking about it makes me want to eat it again. Maybe next month I can go. Thank you for the meal!

When I come to Uji, I often come to this favorite place for lunch, Nekoshi. On this day, I came to have lunch while on a work trip. Due to the pandemic, I called to confirm if they were open and also made a reservation. It was a good thing I did because when I arrived, there was a sign outside saying "Fully booked with reservations!" It seems like this place has become quite popular recently. If you plan to go, it might be a good idea to make a reservation. This restaurant uses homemade vegetables and even homemade rice, which is their special touch. This dedication is fully reflected in their dishes and they are very delicious. On this day, I had the Chicken Saute Lunch (with salad and soup) for 980 yen including tax. It had plenty of vegetables and sautéed chicken, and was quite filling. It had a barbecue sauce-like topping. The vegetables included bell peppers, eggplants, paprika, onions, and more, providing a variety of textures to enjoy. The chicken was tender and fluffy. The sauce was good, but a bit too thick and sticky. I preferred the previous version of the sauce that I had before. However, the chicken and vegetables were still delicious. The salad was crunchy, the rice was glossy, and the soup was also very tasty. I enjoyed my meal this day as well, but I hope they go back to the previous type of sauce. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I have visited Swan's restaurant many times. This place has a commitment to using home-grown vegetables and rice, so not only the main dishes but also the vegetables and rice are delicious. On this day, a Saturday after 12 o'clock, the upstairs was almost full, but there was one table available so we could sit there. The most popular item here is probably the Special Lunch for 1,060 yen. You can choose one from the classic shrimp fry, white fish fry, or oyster fry, and it comes with a daily special main dish for a double main lunch. The daily special main dish was minced cutlet. I wasn't sure about ordering the minced cutlet, but when I saw it, it looked so delicious and filling! I decided to go for my favorite, the cream croquette lunch. The Cream Croquette Lunch (with a drink) costs 1,050 yen and includes soup, salad, main dish, rice (or bread), and a drink. The egg soup here is very delicious and I love it. The salad is lively and fresh, making you feel the vitality of the ingredients. The main dish is well presented. Under the two minced cutlets, there is sautéed vegetables hidden, so you can enjoy vegetables not only in the salad but also in the main dish. When you split the cream croquette with chopsticks, you can see plenty of mushrooms and vegetables inside the cream. The cream has a refined sweetness, and the texture of the mushrooms is great. Cream croquette is my favorite here after all. The fried small potatoes were delicious too. The vegetables were delicious on their own or mixed with the cream. And the rice was glossy and fantastic. After the meal, I relaxed with iced tea. It was delicious again today. It had been a while, so I felt particularly satisfied. If you love cream croquettes, I recommend trying the ones here. Thank you for the meal!

"Oufu Ryori Suwan" is open for regular business during the Obon holiday. They offer a dinner "Pasta Course" which includes an appetizer platter, soup, salad, dessert, and a drink for around 2000 yen. It's a great deal. The seasonal pasta is Genovese, with a delicious taste that you can only enjoy now. Definitely worth a try.

On Wednesdays, the shops along Ujihashi Street are often closed, making it difficult to find lunch options. However, Swann, a Western-style restaurant, is always packed after 12 o'clock. The daily special on this day was chicken cutlet with mustard soup and salad for 750 yen. On Wednesdays, they also offer free coffee.

The usual routine at Swan-san. I come here regularly when I have my usual work, as I want to conquer the main lunch menu. This time, after staring at the menu, I was drawn to the cream croquette. I was sure that a proper and delicious Western-style restaurant's cream croquette would definitely be delicious. The cream croquette was priced at 1050 yen. First, the usual egg soup. The soup here is always impressively delicious. The salad, also homemade, was lively and consistently delicious. And the main dish was beautifully plated, confirming its deliciousness. Under the croquette were grilled vegetables and sautéed vegetables. Around the croquette was a beautiful tomato-based sauce. And on top was homemade tartar sauce. When I opened the croquette with my chopsticks, the filling was full of homemade ingredients. It was incredibly delicious when I took a bite! The cream was rich but not overwhelming, with a fantastic flavor. The ingredients were chunky, giving them a strong presence. The homemade tartar sauce had a sophisticated taste, making it incredibly delicious. This cream croquette is tied for first place with the crab cream croquette at Joji in Midori Bridge (only available at night). The vegetables were also homemade and naturally delicious. The cream croquette was a big hit for me! I highly recommend it, along with the chicken sauté, as one of the top dishes at this restaurant. I definitely want to eat this again. Thank you for the meal!

I came to my favorite restaurant, Swan-san. I visit quite frequently, but the menu is so varied that I never get tired of it and enjoy it every time. Today, let's go for the reliable high-quality special lunch. The special lunch has the following options: ・Rice or bread ・Soup or drink And in addition to the main dish, you can add one more item: ・Shrimp fry or white fish fry (oyster fry is also available in winter) The main dish for today is Pork Cutlet with Cheese and Demi-glace Sauce. ◆Special Lunch Price: 1080 yen I chose rice, soup, and white fish fry. The soup with beaten egg is always delicious. The visual of today's main dish is also amazing! The white fish fry with tartar sauce and the pork cutlet with demi-glace sauce look so appetizing. Especially the gradient of demi-glace sauce and cheese is irresistible. The white fish fry with homemade-like tartar sauce has a crispy coating and tender meat, so delicious. And the pork cutlet with demi-glace sauce is rich in flavor and slightly sweet, with the cheese adding a great touch. The meat of the cutlet is tender and of good quality. The combination with the demi-glace sauce is just perfect and too delicious. I was so absorbed in the taste that I finished it in no time. The lunch was delicious this day too! The oyster season is coming soon, so I hope they will offer oyster fry in the special lunch as well. I'll definitely try it next time. Thank you for the meal!

Well, this month I came to Uji for work again, so I came to my favorite restaurant, Swan. In the past, whenever I came here, there weren't many customers, but this time it was almost full with customers. Luckily, there was one table available on the 2nd floor, so I could sit without waiting. I was a little happy to see that this restaurant is becoming more popular. Now, let's find a menu item that I haven't tried before. And I found it - my favorite chicken sauté. Actually, I prefer chicken sauté over pork steak. I like chicken sauté more than chicken cutlet. So, today's decision is made! First, the soup. The soup here is really delicious. I always admire this soup. And here comes the main dish...wow! This looks the most delicious I've ever seen here. The sliced chicken is sautéed with a variety of colorful and delicious vegetables. Bell peppers, okra, paprika, eringi mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, eggplant, etc. Look at the picture, doesn't it look delicious? When I tried it, the sweet and savory sauce was rich and perfect with rice. The meat is tender and easy to eat because it's already cut. And the vegetables here are also very delicious. The stir-fried vegetables with the sweet and savory sauce are so tasty. Especially the bell peppers are irresistible. This is so delicious! However, rice refills are not allowed, so I have to be careful not to eat too much rice. I paid attention to that, so I finished both the rice and side dishes at the same time. This was the best meal I've had here so far! If it's this delicious, I want to eat it again in a row, haha. But, I'll explore a different menu next time. Now, let's think about what to eat next month...Thank you for the meal!

Once again, I visited my favorite restaurant for lunch. As I mentioned before, this place is known for its dedication to growing their own vegetables and rice, which reflects in the quality of their dishes. This time, I decided to try their pasta, which I hadn't had before. The daily pasta lunch set was priced at 1030 yen, and the pasta of the day was green bean and bacon in tomato sauce. The meal started with a delicious egg soup and fresh salad. The soup was comforting and the salad was consistently tasty. When the pasta arrived, I noticed the generous amount of green beans and the nicely thick-cut bacon, with a side of thinly sliced baguette. The tomato sauce had visible chunks of tomato flesh, which added to the flavor. It was rich and flavorful, with a subtle acidity that complemented the dish well. The pasta, although not my preferred thin type, was still very tasty. The meal was filling, and I enjoyed every bite without getting bored. The coffee that came with the set was a nice way to end the meal. Despite the initial impression of the price, the satisfaction I got from this meal was worth it. This was my first time trying their pasta, and I was not disappointed. This restaurant truly suits my taste, and I look forward to coming back again. Thank you for the meal!

I visited Swan before and was very satisfied, so I wanted to try other dishes this time. I had work nearby, so I came with some colleagues. Please forgive me for just taking a quick photo with my phone on this day. Swan is located a 2-3 minute walk from JR Uji Station, on a quiet street. The restaurant has two floors, and we were seated at a table on the second floor. I had heard from someone who had been here before that the special lunch was recommended, so I had already decided to try it. The special lunch comes with a main dish and an additional choice of either shrimp fry, white fish fry, or oyster fry (limited to winter). I went with the shrimp fry for better presentation in photos. The special lunch (including a drink) costs 1030 yen. The meal started with egg soup, which was delicious and comforting. Then the main dish arrived - chicken meringue piccata with aurora sauce, accompanied by shrimp fry, a colorful salad, and potato salad. The salad was fresh and crunchy, the piccata was unique with a fluffy texture, and the shrimp fry was thick and tasty with a homemade green-tinted tartar sauce. The vegetables and rice were also homemade and delicious. Overall, the meal was satisfying and I would love to come back to try more dishes. Despite the delicious food, it's surprising that the restaurant was not crowded both this time and the last time I visited. I wonder if it's because of its location. I definitely want to come back here again!

It seems to be a popular Western-style restaurant in front of JR Uji Station. I came here with colleagues for work. Initially, I didn't plan on taking photos since it was a work-related gathering, but when the food arrived, it looked so delicious that I decided to take photos and write a review. The dish that caught my eye was the Chicken Katsu set meal. Just look at that beautifully arranged dish! I couldn't resist taking a photo. So, let's dig in! Chicken Katsu Set Meal Price: 960 yen The set includes egg soup, salad, main dish, and rice. The egg soup was gentle and had a comforting flavor. The salad, although served in a small bowl, was colorful and tasty. The main dish had not one, but two pieces of Chicken Katsu, generously topped with sauce and mustard. Underneath the katsu were three types of grilled vegetables, with snap peas being my favorite. The Chicken Katsu was tender and easy to bite into, with a delicious sauce and mustard flavor. I wish the meat was a bit thicker, but having two pieces was satisfying enough. The grilled vegetables, especially the snap peas, had a crunchy texture that I loved. The rice was shiny and delicious, with a high starch content. Overall, I didn't have high expectations, but I had a great lunchtime experience. There aren't many restaurants near JR Uji Station, so knowing about this place is useful. Thank you for the meal!
