Came to visit during Obon travel season. Ended up waiting for about an hour till the seat was freed up. There is a University in the area so young people come by alongside the visitors. The service was good, though. This place is famous for being the original place of Toriten (chicken tempura). The meat was very juicy. I ordered yuzu toriten (chicken tempura with citrus pepper flavoring) but I could not quite taste the citrus pepper. The other food on the menu looks like standard Japanese-style Chinese food. As toriten is a food Oita is famous for, I would recommend giving it a try. Although I don’t think it’s worth an hour of waiting.

Was recommended this place by one of the hotel staff. Came at opening time 5pm and there were 7-8 other groups (locals) waiting. Tip; when you come - register your name + number of pax on the sheet and they will call your name once table is available. We just wrote our English name and no issues with that. Service is fast and efficient. One look at the menu and you would immediately assume it’s a Chinese restaurant based on the Chinese dishes. There is English menu available too. Food tasted great and kudos to the chef because his fried rice for kids meal had a lot of “wok hey” - definitely beat a lot of other Chinese restaurants!

My aunt recommended here because she heard this restaurant’s Toriten is so good. We went to there without booking around 20:00 and there was a loooong line. Maybe waited about 40-50 minutes. We ordered 1800 yen Toriten ,Mapo tofu set with desert and it was nice and seems very reasonable price for it, too. However I was not that hungry so could not finish everything and asked them to put them into the container for take away. One of the staff boy seems like got used with with busy store situation and not friendly at all and even seems like any short conversation with customers are not welcomed. I understand the restaurant is busy so they sell food but don’t sell smiles. They also sell the “ kabosu vinegar “ which tastes very good I wanted to buy it but it was little bit over sized and gave up. My friends were very happy in here and one of them are from local so pretty sure she will come back to here again :)

It was ok chinese food. I think its a bit overrated. I didn’t really feel it to be that special. I would recommend the yuzu toriten compared to the normal one. The fried rice was ok, kinda like a home cooked fried rice style. Shouu based fukuhiro soup (well dont think its real sharks fin) is abit saltier than expected but was good. Dim sum is ok nothing amazing but good for the price. Overall I think the toriten would have been better with a crispier batter. I wouldn’t line up 40 mins again for this.

Chinese restaurant which is famous for its tempura fried chicken. Came for lunch and obviously did the chicken set which is 1350 yen - it was ok, not bad nor amazing. Slightly expensive for what it is I felt. If you are couple or group would recommend doing a different set (they had Chilli prawns and beef in sweet and sour sauce set for 1100 yen for example) and ordering the tempura chicken on its own to share. It's famous in beppu so guess go once to say you have been.

When I pass through that restaurant everyday I see so crowd , their parking lots are always busy and it’s too big . I was so curious what they have special . Recently I went there and I found they say it’s Chinese restaurant and they have some good menus . I bought this set . It has karage with rice , salad and soup . They are good but not much special . I felt it’s like a normal meal . How ever price is little bit expensive but still it’s reasonable.
