In June of the 5th year of Reiwa, around 6:20 pm, I went to Fukuso. I was led to the usual seat at the tempura counter by H, the head chef whom I hadn't seen in a while. I handed over the payment for myself, Ya, and S to H. Soon after, N, the chief manager, came over. Shortly after, Ya, the manager, also came to greet us. We chose the seasonal course for 12,000 yen. The menu included a variety of dishes such as assorted appetizers, white shrimp, snap peas, shrimp heads, bamboo shoots, conger eel, asparagus, ginger, lotus root, sweetfish, broccoli, eel bones and liver, shrimp tempura rice bowl, miso soup, pickles, and dessert. There was no mention of a service charge on the menu, but I noticed it on the receipt later. E, the head chef of Godoku, also came to greet us. Around 8:15 pm, I was escorted back to my room by N. Overall, the cost performance was rated 4 out of 5.

At Onarimon Tempura Fukusa in the Tokyo Prince Hotel, they serve freshly fried tempura right in front of you at the counter. The tempura was delicious, especially the kakiage dashi chazuke as a finishing touch. They also have private rooms, making it a great choice for special occasions, important meetings, or dates. Highly recommended! ✨

It's been a while since I visited, and with spring approaching, many spring ingredients are now available. When it comes to spring ingredients, there are plenty of delicious options like cod sprouts, which are fresh and have a nice crunch. As for something different, the broccoli was quite tasty. The ayu fish had a nice hint of bitterness which was enjoyable. The tempura rice bowl was the highlight of today.

"Tempura should be eaten like you're avenging your parents!!!" This is what Mr. Ikebata Shotaro also said. I have visited this place so many times that I've lost count. My standard for tempura is a place where tempura is fried crisply. As soon as the tempura is served, it starts deteriorating rapidly. This is true for sushi and Italian food as well, but tempura and sushi deteriorate especially quickly. When I see someone leaving their tempura untouched, it frustrates me, even in a business setting. I can't say it out loud, but in my head, I think, "Just eat it first and then talk!!!" Chef Hirano's tempura is made with fresh ingredients and is light and delicious. Tempura may be the best way to enjoy vegetables. I always enjoy it very much. The cost performance is also great, costing around 10,000 yen for one person. Although I sometimes visit tempura restaurants that cost 30,000 or 40,000 yen per person when invited, I wouldn't go on my own. Next to Zojoji Temple, inside Tokyo Prince Hotel, there is a wonderful tempura restaurant. I highly recommend this place.

I went to Tempura Fukusa in the Tokyo Prince Hotel and reserved the usual course meal. Ever since I tried their shrimp tempura here, I can't enjoy shrimp tempura at other restaurants anymore. The speed at which they fry the food, while keeping an eye on the pace of the meal, is truly impressive. We finished with a delicious tempura rice bowl and dessert. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

We finished our first shrine visit of 2020 and had lunch here with our family. The counter seats 10 people and the chef prepares the food right in front of you. There is only one chef and one person handling the counter service. The cooking is impressive, highlighting the flavors of the ingredients. However, there were some downsides. The way the ingredients were placed seemed careless, and my asparagus looked messy. The service towards our family group was noticeably different from the group next to us (no New Year's greetings, etc.). It's a shame, I wanted to have a good New Year...

March 25, 2019 (Monday) - Lunch to celebrate my eldest daughter's graduation On this day, it was my eldest daughter's university graduation ceremony. My wife, daughter, and I attended the ceremony together. After the ceremony, we decided to have a nice meal together, so I made a reservation at a restaurant where my daughter used to work part-time and where the chef works. However, the ceremony ran late, and we arrived at the restaurant around 2:30 pm, almost at the end of their lunch hours. We were welcomed at Fukusa (Tempura Fukusa) located in Tokyo Prince Hotel, Minato-ku, Shiba Koen 3-3-1. We left the dishes up to the chef, and the meal included dishes like "Boiled Komatsuna," "Whitefish and Edamame," "Shrimp Head," "Shrimp," "Shiitake Mushroom Wrapped Shrimp," "Scallop," "Lotus Root," "Asparagus," "Bamboo Shoot," "Young Shoots of Cod and Eel," and others. The meal was exquisite, with each dish being delicious and beautifully presented. The chef even noticed I am left-handed and adjusted the placement of the tempura accordingly. The attention to detail and care shown by the chef was impressive. The dessert was a cherry blossom milk rice cake, daifuku, and strawberry. The chef also surprised my daughter with a cake and a bouquet, which almost brought her to tears. It was a touching moment, and we are grateful for the wonderful experience. Overall, it was a fantastic graduation celebration lunch. Thank you for the delicious meal.

Chef Hirano's service and tempura were excellent. I definitely want to go back again.

Visited on a holiday night. It's a bit hard to find within a card reservation-only course hotel. The tempura was delicious, and the sake was also good. Especially the yellowtail, shrimp, and sea urchin were delicious. I think there were other items as well, but I don't remember. It was my first time trying daikon tempura. The conger eel was a bit tough and not my favorite type of conger eel. The prices are on the higher side, but it's understandable since it's inside a hotel.

It was very delicious.

On the third day in Tokyo, the morning meeting ended early! For lunch, we went to a tempura specialty restaurant. The tempura was delicious as always - freshly fried is the best, with the perfect balance of crispy outside and rare inside. Sitting at the counter allowed us to watch the skilled chefs at work, which was enjoyable. I was a bit worried about dining at a restaurant in Prince Hotel, but it turned out to be quite good.

Yesterday on 6/22 (Thursday) the weather was clear. I had a craving for tempura last night and decided to go to "Fukusa"! The restaurant is located inside the Prince Hotel, just a 3-minute walk from Onarimon Station with Tokyo Tower right in front. It's a place that focuses on food rather than just drinking, offering fresh ingredients and tempura fried right away. The quality is definitely different from tempura you would find at izakayas. We opted for the omakase course around 15,000 yen and had a leisurely and enjoyable time. The clientele is upscale, the restaurant is clean, and there's really nothing to complain about. Adding a bottle of beer made the experience even better! They even prepare tempura using live fish from a tank. For the main dish, you can choose between kakiage donburi, ochazuke, or a rice set. The portions are generous, so some women may not be able to finish everything. I would love to visit again if I have the chance. The total cost for two people, including drinks, was 38,000 yen.

I visited with my parents. It's a tempura restaurant located inside Tokyo Prince Hotel. We had a course meal at the counter. We had shrimp, tilefish, young ayu fish, lotus root, baby corn, asparagus, sea urchin, etc. We ended with tempura tea and moved on to dessert. The portion was quite generous. They also served a salad as a chopstick rest, which I thought was a nice touch. We visited to celebrate my parents' wedding anniversary. When we mentioned this, they kindly brought out champagne and some tempura that was not included in the course, making my parents very happy. The chef was very friendly and the conversation was enjoyable, making it a wonderful anniversary celebration.

I have loved tempura since I was a child! When it comes to rice bowls, tempura-don is the best! I have tried cheap tempura-don to expensive ones! (laughs) That's why, as an adult, I learned the proper way to eat tempura. Enjoying freshly fried tempura made right in front of you by the chef... this luxury is something you can't experience until you're an adult. This place mainly has counter seats, but if you inform them in advance, they also have tatami rooms or private rooms. I always go for the course menu, which allows you to enjoy a variety of dishes from classics to seasonal items. Of course, you can also order additional items to try things not included in the course. The chefs are all friendly and easy to talk to, and they explain the dishes in a light-hearted manner. And as you can see from the photos, they are happy to take a picture with you when they have a free moment. (laughs) Proudly showing off! ( ^ω^ ) They even taught me how to make it this time (laughs) That's why this is a restaurant that I personally love.

Tokyo Prince Hotel, which celebrated its 47th anniversary in September this year. I visited a shop on the first floor and had delicious tempura. Visit on Sunday at 1:30 pm. When you go straight back from the hotel entrance, you will find the restaurant area. Tempura Fukusa has 3 private rooms and 10 counter seats in the general room, and this time we sat at the counter seat in the general room. Reservation was made before the visit. The items we had are as follows: - Special Tempura Course \3,900 - Spinach Ohitashi ★4 - Tempura Shrimp Head ★3.5 - Shrimp ★3.5 - Kaga Lotus Root ★4.5 - Shiitake Mushroom ★4 - Kiss Fish and Bones ★4 - Komatsuna ★5 - Small Ayu ★4.5 - Satsuma Sweet Potato ★4.5 - Fresh Ginger ★4 - Tempura Tea (choose from tempura bowl, kakiage, or rice set) ★4.5 - Fruit Jelly ★3 - Additional Uni ★3 - Conger Eel ★3 - Pumpkin ★4 I'm not sure about the individual prices of the tempura we had, but we also had uni and conger eel, so the cost-performance ratio is decent. However, I think the prices of alcoholic beverages are on the higher side. The tempura had a light and crispy batter. The carefully selected ingredients were brought out by the chef's skills, showcasing the goodness of the ingredients. The most impressive was the Komatsuna tempura. It's quite rare to see Komatsuna tempura, and the texture and freshness were surprising. The small Ayu was served standing upright with its tail up like a guardian dog, and it was a bit heartbreaking. The recommended Ohama Miyako was a pumpkin, which was incredibly sweet and dessert-like. The Satsuma sweet potato was intricately fried to look like a butterfly, which was adorable. The chef was very friendly and attentive, making our dining experience enjoyable. Overall, it's a great restaurant.

I wanted to eat delicious tempura, so I went to Fukusa. We went to a small room called Atago, where three of us sat at the counter and ordered various dishes. I'm not a fan of fried food, but surprisingly, I was able to enjoy the tempura. The best dish was the sea urchin wrapped in seaweed. It was a pleasant surprise how well they paired together. In the end, I ended up eating 10 pieces of fried food. It was a bit of a feast. On the way back, I saw the beautiful Tokyo Tower, which added to the wonderful memories of the meal.

I used the tempura restaurant "Fukusuke" for my workplace's year-end party, located on the first floor of Tokyo Prince Hotel. It has a great location during Christmas time. On that day, we had a completely private room. The chef cooked seasonal ingredients in front of us. The dishes were chef's choice. The interior of the restaurant, including the table seats other than the private room, was quite lovely. It's a perfect place for special occasions like anniversaries, year-end parties, or business entertaining. When we were seated at the counter, we were surprised by the dishes already placed there. The tempura dishes kept coming one after another. The sea urchin was a rare treat, with a strong seaweed flavor. The fish bones were not greasy at all, which was great. They even provided white wine that paired well with Japanese cuisine. Every time a tempura dish or other dish was served, there was applause. It really livened up the conversation. The chef's banter was also entertaining. Since we had a large group, there were three chefs cooking for us. Even a meat dish was served – we were already full by that point, but we managed to finish everything. The simmered dish that followed had a great miso flavor. We ended the meal with tempura tea, which was a delightful new taste for me. I would love to come back with my family next time. The general seating area also had a nice view of the greenery outside, and the atmosphere was excellent. When it comes to tempura, nothing beats the freshly fried tempura by a skilled chef.

It's delicious! I've been eating here for a long time. The tempura is light and not greasy, and it's popular with girls. I think tempura is the best way to eat vegetables tastily, and this place confirmed that belief. I've never been disappointed here. I was told to try dipping the tempura egg yolk in the ten-don at the end, and it was delicious. This is where I first tried Ginpo. I learned how to eat it properly here. I've been to other tempura places, but the master craftsman Hirano here is the best. The ingredients are fried crispy and delicious. Sushi and tempura are meant to be eaten as soon as they are served. I ate here today, but writing this makes me want to eat here again. I love lotus root and maitake mushrooms.
