Daimyo Hete — Restaurant in Fukuoka

Excellent. Get the homemade cheesy tofu! So good. I should note that we read and speak Japanese fluently. Can definitely be challenging for non-Japanese speakers. They didn't have an English menu.

We are so disappointed to have come to this restaurant. Until now we have felt very welcome in every restaurant throughout Japan. Today we feel unwanted. As a result we looked closely at the feedback given and it appears like we’re not alone. No choice of what to eat. The menu was forced upon us. Pushed into a corner and served slower than others.
