Second visit. This time there was a menu for solo diners displayed outside the restaurant, making it more inviting for me to enter. Inside, there was already another solo diner, showing that the restaurant caters to a wide range of customers. I was tempted by the aroma of the mapo tofu that other customers were ordering, so I decided to order it as well. It was easy to order since it was on the solo diner menu. I had never ordered mapo tofu before, but it was really delicious! I was very satisfied because I was able to enjoy a dish that I am not good at. The almond jelly dessert after the meal was also exquisite! It helped to balance out the spiciness from the mapo tofu. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

Hua Lunch Course ▪️ ¥2200 ▪️ Appetizer: Deep-fried shrimp with aromatic flavor, Steamed chicken with cucumber sauce, Petite tomato marinated in osmanthus wine, Eggplant marinated in aromatic flavor ▪️ Today's main dish: Shrimp with mayonnaise sauce ▪️ Your choice of one item: Steamed dim sum (3 kinds) ▪️ Congee ▪️ Zasai pickles. The Petite tomato marinated in osmanthus wine with the appetizer is subtly sweet, and the shrimp with mayonnaise sauce has a firm and creamy texture. The dim sum dishes are all elegant and have a deep, sophisticated flavor that shows the care put into them. It's a generous and delicious gourmet lunch. I love dim sum, so I'm happy to have a nearby restaurant that serves delicious dim sum. This restaurant was featured as one of the top 3 recommendations on Kansai TV's "Yo-i Don" today. The chef, who trained at a top hotel, offers refined authentic Cantonese cuisine. Takeout is also available.

I visited the Branche Matsuiyamate shopping mall near Matsuiyamate Station for lunch. I chose this restaurant after looking at the menu outside. I ordered the Lunch Hana Course for ¥2200, which includes appetizers, a main dish, and a choice of one additional item. Everything was delicious, satisfying, and had good portion sizes. I definitely want to visit this restaurant again.

I used the restaurant for Sunday lunchtime. It was full, but I had made a reservation so I was able to enter smoothly. I had reserved the shark fin course for about 3800 yen. Despite there being 7 staff members, the pacing of the dishes felt a bit slow. The fried chicken and spring rolls were just average. The shark fin was not that great. However, the other dishes were delicious, so I felt that the more affordable lunch course had better value for its taste. Despite having an open kitchen, the chef wearing a chin mask was seen scolding the staff. The waitstaff had blue nails. The service was a bit disappointing.

I have been living without a kitchen for about a month, relying on eating out or ordering bento boxes. I go to a public bath five times a week to take a bath. On this day, I decided to use the bath at Sonenji's office and have dinner here. This restaurant was also featured on a Kansai TV information program the other day. The atmosphere of this restaurant in Matsuyamayamate, called Kawachiya, is more like an Italian bar than a Chinese restaurant. The lighting is a bit dim, creating a stylish atmosphere. I ordered Chinese-style carpaccio, spring rolls, black vinegar sweet and sour pork, mapo tofu, and lettuce fried rice. Oh, and since it's a popular restaurant, it's better to make a reservation. I visited Kawachiya without a reservation, so I sat at the counter. The Chinese-style carpaccio was quite delicious. The spring rolls were okay, nothing too special. The black vinegar sweet and sour pork at Kawachiya was like nothing I had ever tasted before. The seasoning was really good, except for the pork. It had a nice texture and I thought it was good, but just as I was about to think it was great, the unpleasant smell of the meat hit me as I exhaled through my nose. If it weren't for that, I would have given it a higher rating. But it was too strong. The mapo tofu, being a popular menu item, had a good balance of spiciness, depth, and umami. The lettuce fried rice was just average. The tragedy of sitting at the counter is that the speed at which you eat and the speed at which the food is served don't match up. Where am I supposed to put this? That's the feeling you get. The service is good, so reservations are a must.

Bluefin tuna carpaccio with Chinese-style scallops in cup soup, assorted eight treasures, seven herb porridge, almond tofu, and Chinese tea. The ginger sauce on the carpaccio is a bit spicy. Maybe the appetizer platter of four kinds would be better. The eight treasures dish is average. I got full with the ankake sauce.

This time, we had a small banquet here. Due to the current social situation, the restaurant was almost empty, so there was no need to worry about infection. The restaurant had taken proper measures. The staff's conversation could be heard due to the quiet atmosphere. The dishes were very elaborate and delicious, starting from the appetizers with amazing seasoning. The main meat dish was tenderly cooked, and the fried rice topped with egg whites was exquisite. It's great to have a high-quality Chinese restaurant like this in the suburbs. Thank you for the meal.

Surrounding area has a few closed shops, but I'm glad this one is still open. Had a lovely lunch again. Started with an appetizer platter or carpaccio cups, followed by soup. For the main course, you can choose from 3 options with rice or congee, dim sum or negi soba, dessert, and tea. I chose the oyster fry with Yurin sauce for the main course. It was delicious.

This Chinese restaurant is elegant and slightly reminiscent of medicinal cuisine. The interior is bright but relaxing, making it a nice place to dine. I love Chinese porridge, so I found it a bit lacking in flavor for my taste. However, the sauces such as the green onion and ginger sauce, and the salad dressing were delicate yet flavorful and delicious.

I visited for dinner. Since I was alone, I was seated at the counter. I had the 8-item Ankake Yakisoba lunch set which included Chinese-style egg soup for a total of 1930 yen tax included. The Ankake Yakisoba had plenty of ingredients and was very satisfying. The noodles were cooked just the way I like them. The Chinese-style egg soup also had ingredients like wood ear mushrooms and green onions, and it was delicious. They also offer takeout, so it might be nice to try a variety of dishes. Thank you for the meal!

I came along with my wife for her errands. While she was busy, I searched for lunch options and found a few restaurants in this new mall. We decided on this one because my wife felt the atmosphere was calm. We ordered the lunch set for 2000 yen each, which included three appetizers and a main dish. My wife had sweet and spicy shrimp Beijing style, while I had garlic-steamed Hokkaido scallops. For an additional dish, my wife chose a selection of three steamed dumplings, and I chose homemade steamed chicken and scallion soup noodles. The appetizers included steamed chicken, peeled shrimp (which could be eaten with the shell), and a soup with seaweed, egg, and cabbage. The mains and the additional dish were delicious overall, but for a 2000 yen lunch, I expected a bit more flavor. The main issue was that my wife's main dish and the additional dish arrived first, so she finished eating before I received my noodles. I thought they had forgotten about my order. It would have been better if the noodles had arrived around the same time as the appetizers. They also offer rice or porridge with free refills, but I rarely eat porridge unless I'm sick. Overall, the food was good, but if I had read other reviews beforehand, I might have chosen the mapo tofu or the sauce-covered yakisoba.

I was looking forward to enjoying some drinks with snacks ^_^ The three types of cold appetizers with their unique sauce were delicious. They paired perfectly with beer. We ordered a variety of dishes and everything was tasty. There is a wide selection of drinks, and you can choose from various types of highballs. Even though we were full, there are still menu items we haven't tried, so I would like to go back again.

Today, my family and I visited this Chinese restaurant located in the newly opened commercial facility "Branch Matsui Yamate". Although it hasn't been open for even a year, its recognition seems to be gradually increasing, and the tenant spaces are starting to fill up and get busier. We arrived a little after 12 o'clock. The restaurant has a high ceiling and a sophisticated design with curved lines. On the right side, there is the kitchen area and a counter with 8 seats, while on the left side, there are 5-6 tables of various sizes. Jazz music is playing, creating a very comfortable atmosphere with cozy chairs to relax in. The restaurant is run by a man in his 40s and a total of 6 staff members. The menu mainly focuses on Cantonese cuisine, offering a variety of dishes from individual items to courses made with high-quality ingredients. I ordered the "Mapo Tofu Lunch" as expected, while my family ordered the "Mixed Vegetable Stir-Fried Noodles Lunch". Before we knew it, it seems they are not fond of course-style meals, so we were served "Assorted Appetizers" for the family and a "Salad with Onsen Egg" for me. Both dishes were colorful and fresh, with a complex yet solid Chinese flavor that was delicious. Next, the "Soup of the Day" was corn soup, which was elegant and rich in flavor, served hot. Finally, the main dishes arrived. The Mapo Tofu was served in a bubbling hot pot style, with a medium level of spiciness and a smooth texture from the minced meat and silk tofu. It was not too spicy but had a rich flavor that went well with rice. The Mixed Vegetable Stir-Fried Noodles featured medium-thick noodles that were slightly crispy, with a generous mix of pork, shrimp, squid, cabbage, carrots, wood ear mushrooms, bamboo shoots, greens, and a total of 8 ingredients. It was generously portioned and made with an elegant oyster sauce, with a slight thickness. I asked for a half portion of the complimentary rice and finished it soon after. The dishes were refined and sophisticated, showcasing the experience gained from years of working in hotels. However, in comparison to other famous restaurants in the city, the cost-performance ratio may not be as good. But considering there are hardly any Chinese restaurants in this area, it might be a saving grace. Overall, the service was good. Thank you for the meal. Accessibility: There are about two steps leading to the restaurant, no wheelchair access. The restroom is located within Branch Matsui Yamate, and there is a parking discount service available (see photo).

The taste is decently delicious but the prices are a bit high... It's quieter at night than during the day, which is nice.

Matsuiyamate is a popular area in recent years, but still has a sense of being a developing area. We hope that our restaurant, which offers delicious Chinese cuisine, will be able to thrive for a long time.

I couldn't find a suitable restaurant for entertaining clients in Matsuiyamate, so I chose this place. I opted for the most expensive course, but each dish was too large and there were too many dim sum options on the menu. I regret not ordering a la carte. The food was average, lacking variety in dim sum and other dishes.

It was delicious. I am a repeat customer. The total price was 1300 yen including tax. It had just the right amount of spiciness, a good portion size, and I was very satisfied. The dressing for the salad was also carefully selected, and I was impressed. I would like to try the evening course once.

The branch near Matsuiyamate Station is a sophisticated restaurant district.

Today's lunch was again a feast for the eyes. The main dishes were fried bonito with oil dressing sauce and crab meatballs with Shanghai crab miso sauce. However, I felt a bit unsatisfied today.

I was taken to this restaurant by a friend who had visited before and found it delicious. The lunch course was 2000 yen and included an appetizer platter, cup soup, a choice of main dish from three options with rice or congee, dim sum or dessert, and tea. I chose a fish main dish, which was light and elegant, and very tasty. They refill your tea when it runs out. The almond jelly dessert was deliciously firm and tasty. It was a delightful meal. Thank you.

I usually avoid Chinese cuisine because there are many ingredients I don't like, but I was fine here. It was quite lively and crowded during lunchtime. Thank you for the meal.
