Oreno French Hakata — Restaurant in Fukuoka

This restaurant is one of the restaurants that I never miss if I have the chance to visit Fukuoka.

About Food and Taste : A wide variety of food, combining Italian and French dishes. Every dish tastes good. The dish presentation is meticulous. The drink list is extensive and varied. Both food and beverages are provided for customers to choose from at affordable prices.

The first popular menu item is probably the beef steak, served with foie gras and mashed potatoes. The steak is a good size, soft texture, smooth and fine mashed potatoes, and has a light truffle oil aroma.

The Baked Lobster with Cheese menu is another menu that I love. The size of the shrimp is just right, cooked to perfection, and seasoned to perfection.

The other side dishes are also good. The serving size is medium. The taste is excellent. The price is very good value.

Restaurant atmosphere : The atmosphere is lively. The open kitchen allows you to see every movement in the kitchen. Every employee in the restaurant, from the receptionists, servers, and chefs, all add color and life to this restaurant.

Most of the diners are groups who have made plans to socialize, and there are also couples who come to celebrate special occasions.

During the day, there is live music for about half an hour, which adds to the liveliness of the place.

Summary :

This is an impressive restaurant with great taste, price and atmosphere. During lunch time, there is a lunch set with a very good value. I recommend finding a chance to try it once. You can easily book through...

Came for dinner with a group of 8 and the bill was 40,000 yen (5000 per person) we didn't have too much food and had three bottles of wine - so didn't feel the price was that good considering remaining 25,000 yen was on food. Overall food quality was ok, nothing to write home about.... pizza was cheap at 480 yen for a Margherita (though French?) and had truffle everything (though didn't taste or smell of truffle) the dessert was the real treat of the meal. Atmosphere was odd felt sort of Fish bowl like with all walking by looking in and interior felt super cheap. Had jazz singer who sang well and was passionate but couldn't hear the person besides me as they had the volume up so loud. Was ok but don't feel I will be rushing back...

The service is poor and the food safety here is even worse. In the beginning, there is only one spoon for two servings of appetizer. Then we found a “white rubber band” in our first plate of spaghetti. It’s really disgusting! We reflected this problem with the waitress, and they just returned another plate of spaghetti which has less portion of crab then the first one☹️ I think crab is the main feature in this dish.

In the aspect of food safety, they should not use the white rubber band in the kitchen. It’s hard to aware that if the food is polluted or not.

Won’t come...
