Maefuji — Restaurant in Fujikawaguchiko

We went there for dinner. Being the only ones in the restaurant we were feeling uneasy but the waitress was amazingly kind. One of the greatest waitresses we ever had though the slight communication barrier (our Japanese was too bad ;) ) The meal was cheap and tasted amazing. We had a full course (containing salad, rice, meat, soup and later a coffee). The meat was perfectly cooked and had an awesome taste (the steak and the chicken skewers). You could taste it was freshly made. We also ordered to beers. For meal and drinks we paid 3250yen together (two persons - our hotel would have charged 3500 per person). Shortly before we left, the waitress came and refilled our water cups. After leaving our stomachs were full and we were happy. This restaurant needs more traffic,...

We stayed at the wonderful Fuji Lake Hotel for our honeymoon, a few years ago. We went venturing out later one evening and found this gem of a place. It has a very nice and homely feel which was also reflected by the service and friendliness of the owner and employees. Being my first time in Japan and not know any Japanese, we had no idea what type of food was served nor could we read the menu. Once the lady realized that was the case she brought out a neatly hand-written menu translated into English. We didn’t realize it was a Japanese take on Western food - chicken, steak, salad etc. However, it tasted spectacular even recalling it now 6 years after the fact. We plan to revisit this wonderful place again with our children...

Amazing food and service at this resturant! My friends and I are visiting from the US and this is a top contender for the best food we’ve had in our two weeks visiting Japan.

If you order from the set menu, you get a salad, consommé or miso soup, rice or bread, & coffee orange juice or oolong tea all included in the price. All for around $10 USD, you can’t beat it.

The cheese hamburger steak was delicious and melted in your mouth. My friend finished the chicken sautee before i even touched my main course so it must’ve been good as well.

The menu is mostly translated to english, but if you’re traveling to Japan and don’t know much Japanese, you should have google translate installed anyway and you can take a picture...
