I went there three times before I could eat, and I was looking forward to it, but I didn't expect to have a very bad experience. The first time I went, I was told there was no place and I couldn't make a reservation for the next day, so the next day I arrived again at around 12:00 and was told again there was no place, this time I was told I could make a reservation for 12:00 the next day, so I made a reservation and went the third day. When we entered the restaurant today, one of the male waiters had a bad attitude and a fierce tone, and when we asked if there was an English menu, he impatiently said no, only Japanese. When the food was served later, the dishes served at this time were mandatory for each table, and he did not make it clear after serving that we needed to finish them before we could get the meat buffet again. We were not aware of this rule, so we were called back to our seats by him when we were in line to get the meat buffet, and he said in a very impatient tone that we had to finish these before we could take them, expressing it very unclearly. On the list it was written that the last order time was 13:20 and the last meal time was 13:40 (there was no English translation of this, only Japanese notes, so I couldn't understand it) We were still eating, and at 13:40 the male waiter came over and said that it was time for you to eat and that we should leave directly. We hadn't finished eating yet and repeatedly asked if we could pack it away or finish the rest of it. At this point a waitress who didn't speak a bit of English came and used a translation software to tell us that we couldn't continue eating unless we added more money. We agreed that we could add money and we would finish the rest of the meat. She ended up telling us that this was the meat we could finish within the allotted time and that we had to be fined. So we paid the fine and the meat was not allowed to be taken away. We asked many times if we could pack it, and got no response! And she just visually inspected our leftover meat and set the fine amount arbitrarily, we didn't even get a detailed breakdown of the fine! In the end we were fined 800 yen. The dining instructions say that if you don't finish everything, you will be fined, but we weren't informed.Very bad dining experience, not...
