※※Visit on March 8, 2022※※ - Specialty: Dan Dan noodles for 1,300 yen *Dan Dan noodles, Xiao Long Bao (2 pieces), special dessert included - Noodle extra serving: 250 yen - Rice: 250 yen Located near the east exit of Daikanyama Station on the Tokyu Toyoko Line, towards Ebisu, look for the red sign of "Octave Court Daikanyama." Below is "Chugoku Meisai Ryofang Daikanyama Branch," a Beijing cuisine restaurant that has been operating since April 19, 2013. The restaurant has a luxurious atmosphere with all table seats and parquet floors. This time, I ordered an extra serving of noodles for the "Specialty Dan Dan noodles" and added "rice." The Dan Dan noodles come with Xiao Long Bao (2 pieces) and a special dessert, and ordering rice allows for free refills. The thin straight noodles with spring onions, minced meat, and bok choy are comparable to other restaurants, but the Dan Dan noodles here do not contain sesame, only Sichuan peppercorns. It's spicy but addictively delicious. The soup is also tasty. Even when poured over rice, it's delicious. I asked for a refill. The Xiao Long Bao served as a palate cleanser. They are bite-sized, easy to eat, with a soft and slightly sweet skin. The tangy condiment helps balance the flavors in the mouth. For dessert, I had a Coconut Bavarois. The coconut flavor spreads in the mouth, and the jelly-like texture is enjoyable. The hot Chinese tea was also good.

Located right near Daikanyama Station, this restaurant may not initially strike you as a Chinese restaurant due to its stylish appearance. It's about a 10-minute walk from the west exit of Ebisu Station. The restaurant is underground and very chic, making it a great spot for a wine night with friends. We were able to bring our own wine for a corkage fee, which added to the fun. We avoided dishes labeled as sweet and sour, as we had heard they tend to be on the sweeter side, and instead opted for a variety of other dishes to share. Everything we tried was delicious. This is definitely a place we'd like to visit again for a wine night. The assorted appetizer platter was a hit, as was the stir-fried bell peppers and beef in oyster sauce. The shrimp spring rolls were packed with shrimp filling, and the seafood okoge, where the hot sauce is poured in front of you, was a unique experience. But the standout dish of the night was the seafood ankake yakisoba - a savory dish with a unique salty sauce that we couldn't get enough of. We're already planning our next visit just for that dish.

The food, service, and price are all fantastic! I always go for lunch because I have children, and the staff are so kind. They provide children's cutlery and reassure you that it's okay if they spill water, all with a smile. The food is really delicious, especially the fried rice and tantan noodles. The summer limited tomato egg noodles are also really tasty. And the best part is the great value for the quality of food and service. I will definitely go back again. Thank you for the meal!

This is a shop located on the underground floor. Before entering the shop, you are greeted by lots of greenery. You feel refreshed by the negative ions and are guided to the entrance. The interior of the shop has a luxurious yet relaxing feel, similar to a resort in Repulse Bay on the opposite side of the towering buildings of Hong Kong Island. I had the daily lunch set. The soup had a similar taste to hot and sour soup, with a strong flavor of fine pepper. The appetizer was delicately wrapped vegetables with pork, and it had an exquisite taste. The main dish had a luxurious amount of plump shrimp, along with tender squid and crunchy green vegetables stir-fried in a wok. The flavor was balanced and delicious. Additionally, if you are a man, you may feel that the rice is not enough, but you can ask for a refill. The tea on the table was also very delicious. Thank you for the meal.

I went for lunch. It was around 12:30 and there were a few groups waiting in line, but I managed to get in. It was my first visit, so I ordered the famous tantanmen. The soup was rich and delicious. Personally, I prefer noodles that are smooth, but these were a bit firm (perhaps they were dried noodles), so unfortunately they weren't my favorite type. The xiaolongbao came out later, but two of them were stuck together, and when I tried to eat them, the skin tore. It was frustrating. I also had the coconut bavarois dessert for an extra 100 yen. I am full. The other lunch menu items also look delicious, so I would like to visit again.

I visited during lunchtime. I have dined here for dinner several times and have always been satisfied with the delicious food. This was my first time having lunch here. I ordered the fried rice set and the daily special set. The options for the day were fried rice with pickled vegetables, and stir-fried liver.

I used the time on Sunday, at noon, around 1:30 PM, but I was late due to heavy rain. The lunch menu offers daily specials and signature dishes, all of which are delicious. The tantanmen noodles had a strong flavor of sansho pepper and were expertly prepared. Even the dessert was very tasty. The service was extremely polite and had a sense of luxury. Despite arriving late and just before the last order, the staff provided a very pleasant reception. The exterior and interior of the restaurant have a Japanese high-end Chinese feel, with a stylish design featuring trees at the entrance. It has a sense of taste and individuality.

In the second half of Golden Week, there were fewer people in Daikanyama than usual. I wanted something light to eat, so I chose the chicken and vegetable soup soba. The soup is light but flavorful, the noodles are thin, and the sliced chicken is easy to eat and delicious. The panna cotta was also delicious as always, and I left feeling very satisfied.

I was recommended by an acquaintance and decided to visit this place for lunch. The stylish entrance raised my expectations quite a bit! I ordered the tantanmen, but when I tried it, the sansho pepper was intense... my mouth went numb and I couldn't really tell what was happening. Haha

After a long time, we had a drinking party in Daikanyama and made a reservation for this nostalgic Chinese restaurant. Chinese food in general brings back memories of flavors I used to love. My taste has gradually changed over the years. I don't know if my palate has become more refined or if I've gotten older and heavy dishes are becoming less appealing to me. The deep-fried crab spring rolls were excellent. Unfortunately, you have to make a reservation for the Peking duck, which was a shame.

I happened to stop by and ordered the tantanmen. Along with it, I got two xiaolongbao and a coconut-flavored pudding for dessert. All of this for the surprising price of 1,300 yen. The tantanmen had a good chewy texture and a rich aroma of sansho pepper, served elegantly in a beautiful dish. The xiaolongbao was a bit lukewarm, which made me wonder if it would be juicier if it was hotter. The dessert was just the right amount for a refreshing finish, with a smooth texture and elegant taste. Great value for the price, and the stylish atmosphere at the entrance of the restaurant is very Daikanyama-like. I will definitely visit again!

Located along the road from Daikanyama to Shibuya, this high-quality restaurant is beloved by local ladies. I visited for lunch and found the entrance atmosphere to be lovely and the restaurant to be lively. I ordered the tantanmen and xiaolongbao set for lunch, but I didn't feel much depth in the flavors. Perhaps they use artificial seasoning in the broth. The saltiness was strong, and I wished for a chewier texture in the thin noodles. Despite this, I enjoyed a leisurely time there and will revisit to try a different menu.

This is a popular restaurant near Daikanyama Station. It's just a short walk from the station, but it's hidden underground so it feels like a hidden gem and very calming. When you go down the stairs from the street and enter the restaurant, the spaciousness creates a nice contrast. I had the tantanmen for lunch. It had just the right amount of spiciness and numbing sensation, and it was delicious. The set with xiaolongbao and dessert also felt like a good deal.

I used it for lunch on a regular day. There are 5 types of lunches in the 1000 yen range and a slightly more expensive one using shark fin. I ordered the daily lunch, which today was a sweet and sour stir-fry of shrimp and eggplant. It was a taste and lineup that didn't seem like 1100 yen. Also, the blancmange served for dessert was very delicious with its fluffy texture.

Last time I went a la carte, but this time I opted for the 6-course mini course with an additional order of fried chicken. Everything was delicious. The sweet and sour pork was eaten with a knife and fork. The tantanmen was spicy and flavorful. The only complaint I have is that it was cold near the entrance where we were seated.

- Jellyfish with Shandong flavor 990 yen The crunchy texture was good. - Sweet and sour spicy stir-fried shrimp 2,420 yen The visual impact was different from what I imagined, but the taste was indeed sweet and sour spicy stir-fried shrimp. Elegant taste. - Xiao Long Bao from authentic Shanghai (4 pieces) 1,276 yen You can enjoy the so-called "juicy explosion". Highly recommended. - Crispy sweet and spicy stir-fried chicken 1,990 yen This was my favorite. It tasted like delicious oil-drizzled chicken. Sweet and crispy, irresistible. - Beef and spicy chili fried rice 2,200 yen Fried rice with lots of meat. It wasn't too spicy. - Wuyi Cinnamon (Fujian Province) 880 yen Tea. It has a scent and taste similar to cherry blossom leaves. Total: 12,041 yen for 2 people The restaurant has an atmosphere that shows a sense of style not typically found in Chinese restaurants.

The dinner restaurant in Daikanyama where I walked around a bit was not crowded, but the staff seemed to be short-handed. A young man who seemed to be a waiter was working hard washing dishes. After waiting for a while, I finally got his attention and he said, "I have a reservation for you." The service was friendly and the food was delicious. However, it was quite difficult to place an order. When I wanted to order a beer, finding the right timing to communicate my request was a challenge.

This is my first visit to celebrate a friend's birthday here. It's located just a 1-minute walk from Tokyu Toyoko Line "Daikanyama Station" East Exit, making it easy to find. The chef, who holds the highest qualification of "Special Grade Chef," serves authentic Beijing cuisine. The dishes prepared by the chef, who has obtained the highest qualification in Chinese cuisine, were visually appealing and delicious. Thank you for reading until the end! If you could give us a 'like,' 'follow,' or 'save the restaurant,' it would be a great encouragement for us. Thank you!

We waited for about 2 groups and were seated. The entrance was lovely and decorated for Halloween since it was the end of October. The appetizers were delicious, and all the dishes were very tasty! I would definitely like to try this place at night as well.

A friend told me about this place. After getting off at Daikanyama Station, instead of walking the usual way, I headed left and found a restaurant underground right away. Even though it was underground, it was almost full. The lunch was very reasonable. I had the clay pot rice lunch for 1300 yen. It came with appetizers, soup, xiaolongbao, and the main dish of clay pot rice. Dessert was mango pudding. Next time, I want to try the dan dan noodles too.

Toei, a movie distribution company, announced on the 19th that they will be closing their directly operated theaters "Shibuya TOEI (1)・Shibuya TOEI (2)" in Shibuya, Tokyo on December 4th. This decision was made based on their management policy, marking the end of a 69-year history since opening as Toei's first directly operated theater. It's a bit sad, as it's the movie theater above Bic Camera, right? I've only been a few times, but it's still sad. Today's review is for "Chugoku Meisai Ryuho Daikanyama Store." Located just a minute's walk from Daikanyama Station. It's kind of a semi-basement location. You can enjoy Beijing palace cuisine prepared by a chef who holds the highest qualification in Chinese cuisine, "Special Grade Chef." I visited for lunch on a weekday. I was browsing through Tabelog and noticed quite a few reviews of Chinese cuisine, so I was craving Chinese food. Oh, this has nothing to do with the incident at Sunshine 60's Chinese restaurant. I've been curious about this place for a while now. It's more of a proper Chinese restaurant than just Chinese food. As I descended the stairs, I was greeted by a slightly retro and open green corridor. Upon entering the restaurant, there was a customer waiting, but when I said I was alone, I was guided to the counter seats in the back. Hello. The restaurant is full at this time. It seems to be quite popular. The interior gives off a calm and retro impression. The counter seats have a glass window in front, allowing you to see the outside light. I took a deep breath. The warm tea in the pot on the table. Today, I will have the "B Specialty Dan Dan Noodles" for 1300 yen, which comes with 2 xiaolongbao and dessert. Everything on the menu looked delicious, but I decided on this. After ordering, I waited for the food to arrive, but it took quite a while. After more than 20 minutes, the food was finally brought to me. The dan dan noodles have a nice kick from the Sichuan pepper. The noodles are thin. I really wanted some white rice, but I'm on a diet. Also, the rice costs 250 yen, which is expensive. The xiaolongbao arrived late. The taste was not very hot, and the filling was minimal. The soup was a bit bland, but balanced out by the strong sauce. The dessert after the meal was almond tofu? Bavarois? The sauce was sweet and sour, and delicious. It was a smooth type. I finished it all in no time, as I ate quickly and worked up a good sweat. Thank you for the meal. That's all for today. Bye-bye!
