Ordering via tablet, the seats are a bit cramped, and the serving speed is quick.

🔹 Saga Beef Millet Rice and Yam Puree Set (M) ¥2,380

• The quality of Saga beef is delicate, with even marbling. It is tender and juicy, with a subtle meat aroma that is not overwhelmingly beefy. Eating it with yam puree and millet rice not only balances the richness of the fat but also enhances the overall smooth and moist texture. The yam puree has a smooth and refreshing texture, making it a great balance for those who are sensitive to greasiness.

🔸 Kijima Pork Millet Rice and Yam Puree Set (M) ¥1,480

• In comparison to Saga beef, Kijima pork has a more homestyle flavor but is also a very reliable choice. The pork is cut thinly with a bit of fat, making it tender and not dry, and when paired with millet rice and yam puree, it enhances the overall moistness. This set offers great value for money, with an affordable price and just the right portion, making it especially suitable for a weekday lunch or a light meal.

🔹 Beef Tongue Set (M) ¥1,780

• Although cut a bit thin, the meat quality is good, with a soft yet slightly chewy texture. When you bite into it, you get that nice bounce of beef tongue; it’s neither dry nor overly salty, and the seasoning is just right. It pairs very well with white rice.

🔸 Thick-Cut Beef Tongue (L) ¥2,880

• This dish was initially a highly anticipated highlight, as "thick-cut" sounds appealing, but when it arrived, it did not have the expected thickness. The bounce when biting into it was also somewhat lacking, missing a bit of that satisfying chewiness, which was a slight disappointment. It was my first time trying yam puree; I mixed half of it into the rice, which increased the moisture and made the whole bowl smoother and more palatable. Overall, the texture was still quite good.

🔹 Hakata Specialty Mentaiko ¥180

• I had never tried it before, so I ordered it to give it a taste. The salty and fishy flavor intertwined upon entering the mouth, which may be a bit shocking for those not accustomed to mentaiko.

🔅 All sets come with soup, white rice, yam puree, and pickled vegetables.
🔅 Additional white rice is available.

🧸 I heard it's a very famous beef tongue breakfast, and they serve breakfast sets in the morning. Coffee and barley tea are refilled for free, and it's very friendly for travelers since it's inside the station. I want to try it next time I get the chance.

🥢 During meal time at Hakata Station, I casually found this beef tongue specialty shop. The environment is nice, and the food comes out quickly, but I was a bit disappointed overall this time.

👅 The thick-cut beef tongue wasn't as thick as I imagined, it was a bit dry and lacked the expected chewy texture. I left the bowl of yam puree untouched because I really can't get used to that slippery, gooey texture.

🫣 I ordered some famous Hakata mentaiko (spicy cod roe) thinking I should try it since I was in Fukuoka, but… well… the salty and fishy flavors were a bit overwhelming, so I just quietly finished my white rice to cancel it out.

🍋 To be honest, the lemon beef tongue I had last time in Osaka was way better. At least that had thickness and a refreshing seasoning, while this place was just… okay to eat.

📱 Ordering on the tablet was convenient, there were many payment options, the restaurant was clean, and the process was fast, making it suitable for a quick visit while on a tight schedule.
