The fatty tuna, sea urchin, and salmon roe on top of the fatty tuna was delicious. The sweetness of the fatty tuna paired well with the slight bitterness of the sea urchin and the popping texture of the salmon roe. The seared amberjack sashimi was also delightful with its firm texture and smoky aroma. The asparagus baked with cheese and half-boiled egg was a perfect combination of crunchy asparagus, creamy cheese, and runny egg. The black wagyu beef and raw sea urchin hand roll was a luxurious dish with the addition of caviar. The pork belly wrapped with okra and natto was surprisingly tasty with a strong natto flavor. The shining mushroom clay pot rice was impressive with its glossy mushrooms and generous amount of mushrooms. Lastly, the creamy pasta with raw sea urchin was a delightful combination of the sea urchin's slight bitterness and the creaminess of the sauce. The restaurant is conveniently located near Imazumi Park, so be sure to check it out!

The clay pot rice was incredibly delicious! The other dishes on the menu were also tasty, and the staff provided excellent service, making our time there enjoyable. We were tired from our trip, so we only stayed for a short time, but we definitely want to come back when we're feeling more energetic. Thank you very much.

The rice cooked in a pot is delicious, and all the side dishes are also amazing! The restaurant is always busy, but they noticed that I am pregnant and asked, "Would you like the meat cooked well-done?" and "Do you want the salmon roe on the rice separated?" They were so considerate and I had a wonderful time. Thank you so much!

I heard about this delicious restaurant from my daughter and made a reservation to go. They explained the menu in detail, and both the kamameshi and side dishes were delicious. In particular, the sea bream and salmon roe kamameshi was topped with broth at the end, which made it even more delicious with a second flavor. I would like to try going at night next time.

I used a course with all-you-can-drink for 5,500 yen. I was very satisfied as the dishes kept coming until I was full! There were many drink options and they took orders until the last minute, which was appreciated. There were a lot of rare meats, so it may not be recommended for those who don't like raw meat, but overall, you can enjoy delicious dishes!

I have been to the Ohori location before and recently visited the Imaizumi location for dinner. The food was just enough to fill me up, and I ended up taking the rice in the clay pot home. One thing that bothered me a bit was that even when I said "excuse me" to place an order, the staff kept talking and the delicious food ended up being overshadowed by the service.

Lunch Visit: This place is stylish and perfect for a leisurely lunch. It's not a typical Hakata specialty spot, but more like a place where locals come to enjoy a relaxed lunch. I requested a private room because I wanted to chat slowly. We shared various dishes and enjoyed rice cooked in a pot. The place seemed like it would be crowded, but it was full without a wait, probably because it was a weekday. It was delicious! ✨

I wanted to visit GaoGao during the cherry blossom season and on a sunny day, it's the perfect location! I made a reservation for a drink-all-you-can course for about 6000 yen as there wasn't much information on dinner. The drink-all-you-can option included highballs, red and white wine, shochu, etc., although there was no sake. The fresh seafood, meat, and luxurious dishes satisfied my appetite! It was a shame that it was a rainy day this time, but the staff provided excellent service and the atmosphere was great. It may be a bit hard to get a reservation, but I would like to book for lunch during the cherry blossom season. Thank you for the meal! (^^)

It was amazing!!! I wanted to eat foie gras rice, but it seems like they don't have it due to the world situation. However, the set meal, kamameshi, dessert were all really delicious and I was very satisfied. The main waiter who served us was really good at his job. He would let us know when the restroom was available, and he even noticed when I dropped my chopsticks. He was really friendly.

The flower basket set meal for 2000 yen plus the clay pot for 500 yen was delicious, especially with the dessert that came with black honey. The clay pot had enough rice for 1.5 servings, and we were able to take home the leftovers as onigiri. It was a happy moment to share each other's clay pot when dining with two people.

A little over a year ago, I was told about a restaurant where you can enjoy delicious clay pot rice, but due to its irregular hours and being fully booked with reservations, I finally had the chance to visit "Gao Gao" for the first time. The entrance has a glass accordion door that overlooks the greenery of Imaizumi Park, creating a pleasant atmosphere with a gentle breeze coming in. The restaurant, with about 50 seats, is mostly filled with women. For lunch, they offer the "Hanakago Gozen" with options like the main "Hanakago Honzen," a limited edition "Seasonal Hanakago Gozen," and a slightly luxurious "Hanakago Steak Gozen" made with beef fillet. Additionally, there are six types of clay pot rice to choose from, allowing for 18 different combinations. The dishes, such as shrimp fry wrapped in nori, chicken kinkan, beef tail stew on tofu, salt-grilled mackerel, sashimi of Japanese horse mackerel, and fried chicken with yuzu pepper, all packed in the hanakago, were delicious. I decided to indulge in the "Seasonal Fresh Fish and Salmon Roe Clay Pot Rice," which featured a large sea bream fillet and premium rice called "Kuma-san no Chikara" from Kumamoto prefecture, selected as the top grade in last year's rice taste ranking. The new season's rice was even more flavorful and aromatic, making the meal even more enjoyable, especially when finishing with ochazuke. For dessert, I chose the matcha water shingen mochi with condensed milk, a non-calorie treat made from natural water and agar, with the delightful flavors of matcha and sweet milk.

We went to this restaurant with two friends after seeing it featured on TV. We tried the most popular Western-style kamameshi (kettle-cooked rice), which was delicious. I can't remember the name, but it was definitely tasty. The highball and sangria were a bit weak and not that great, to be honest. I think beer and wine would be better choices. The individual dishes, drinks, and portion sizes were a bit on the pricey side. The service was very good though.

The cool season has an open-air feel with a view of the park in front. Especially during cherry blossom season, it's the perfect location. Every dish is a hit no matter what you order. The chouchin and Saga beef sukiyaki is a perfect combination, with the sweetness of Saga beef fat melting in your mouth along with the chouchin, creating a smooth and flavorful taste. The fig and tofu salad is naturally sweet and delicious. It's refreshing and feels like a dessert. But the highlight here is the clay pot rice!!! Unfortunately, the foie gras clay pot that I loved before is no longer available...so sad. So, I ordered the most popular beef tail clay pot and the sea bream and salmon roe clay pot. The beef tail clay pot rice is cooked with beef tail bones, blending the sweetness of the beef tail with the white rice, creating an amazing taste. It's quite rich and hearty, but you can enjoy it with truffle salt, lemon, and dashi for a fun twist. The lemon helps cut through the richness of the rice. Adding dashi turns it into a hitsumabushi-style dish. The sea bream and salmon roe clay pot rice is surprisingly delicious, with fresh and tasty ingredients. The sea bream is tender and the dish is stylish and satisfying. It's a great choice for a girls' night out. No matter what you order, you can't go wrong at GaoGao.

I visited Gaogao in Fukuoka, Fukuoka Prefecture. I made a last-minute reservation for a counter seat for a cafe lunch, and it was amazing. Fukuoka is known for its delicious food, and getting a sophisticated lunch for around 2000 yen with dessert included is fantastic. The best dish I had was the foie gras rice cooked in a clay pot, with two pieces of foie gras on top and truffle oil to mix in. It was the most delicious thing I've had recently. Thank you for the meal. #FukuokaGourmet #FukuokaSightseeing #HakataGourmet #TenjinCafe #HakataCafe #TravelLovers #CafeLovers #FukuokaCafeHopping #FoodLovers #HakataLunch #FukuokaLunch #TenjinLunch #gaogao #Foodies #FoodieGirls

The foie gras hot pot is incredibly delicious ♥️ I recommend taking the leftover rice home as onigiri. The location offers a view of cherry blossoms, creating a festive atmosphere perfect for enjoying delicious food and drinks. The service is excellent and the restaurant is lively. The open kitchen is clean and the kitchen staff work efficiently. However, as soon as the restaurant fills up with reservations, the wait times for orders increase significantly. I had to wait 40 minutes for a dessert at the end due to severe understaffing caused by the impact of COVID-19 on the restaurant industry.

The steak was delicious and the seared wagyu beef rice was also a great choice. We could only get seats at the counter when we made a reservation, but being able to see the cooking process was a plus. However, there were times when we thought the dish being prepared was ours, but it turned out not to be. They provide detailed explanations about the origin of the ingredients and the dishes, making it a comfortable dining experience. ♡

Hello everyone. This time, I casually dropped by that popular restaurant I wanted to try. It was full of women 360 degrees. Oh, it was delicious, delicious. The price is a bit high, but the customer service and atmosphere are top-notch. The taste was also delicious. Thank you for the meal. I will visit again.

This lunch is the best in terms of cost performance! Reservations are a must. It's rare to be able to eat rice in a clay pot, and you can even enjoy a hint of scorched rice. And it comes with foie gras on top! It's incredibly delicious! Honestly, I could eat as much as I want, haha. Normally, I can't finish 1.5 cups in one go, so they apparently make the rest into rice balls for you. The fear of being able to finish it all by myself. Personally, I found the egg yolk in the oyakodon to be delicious! The miso soup also had yuzu peel in it, which added a nice aroma. I will definitely go back!

I had a reservation at another restaurant with a star, but due to a work accident, I ended up being delayed. After finally leaving, I had a long conversation with a talkative customer and ended up being late. When I informed my family about the delay, they told me it was okay if I didn't come anymore. I searched for other options and managed to find a place that had availability. The restaurant specialized in cooking rice in clay pots, which was popular among young women. The interior was stylish with glass walls and comfortable sofas. We were seated in a separate building where we couldn't see the surroundings, which was actually quite nice. We ordered the "Hanakago Zen" lunch set, which featured seasonal dishes in a clay pot. We also added extras like cress and salted mackerel for an additional cost. The food took 20 minutes to arrive, but it was worth the wait. The Hanakago set included various dishes like simmered vegetables, sashimi, tempura, and a unique dessert. The clay pot rice was served separately and we were able to mix it ourselves. We left some rice, which they kindly wrapped up for us to take home. Overall, it was a luxurious experience and the perfect place for an occasional treat. The restaurant also had a convenient bike parking area, which was a nice touch.

I have visited this restaurant multiple times for lunch gatherings with my girlfriends. It's great that we can also have drinks during the day. For this price, you get various side dishes and delicious kamameshi. Each of us ordered a different kamameshi to share and enjoy together. The portions are generous, so we were all full! They also make onigiri with any leftover kamameshi for takeout. (*´꒳`*)

I had been curious about this restaurant for a while as it always seemed busy whenever I passed by. I made a reservation the day before and visited. They have basic infection prevention measures in place. - Menu: Each flower basket set comes with freshly cooked rice in a clay pot, and you can add additional ingredients as an option. I thought the rice would take a while to be served after ordering, but it arrived in about 15 minutes. - Fillet steak flower basket set (2000 yen including tax): I was torn between the seasonal flower basket options, but I was in the mood for meat. The steak was more generous than I expected, and the meat was tender and delicious. It satisfied my meat craving. It's tasty with wasabi, but the slightly sweet sauce that comes separately also goes well with it. - I was surprised to be served "kinkan" (egg yolk??), which is a rare item to be served outside of a yakitori restaurant. It's a product that consists of only the egg yolk without the shell or egg white. It's delicious with sweet and savory seasoned minced meat and seaweed. - The bonito tataki was roughly cut and average. - The white squid salad was a delight as I love white squid. - Weak to limited editions, I added the "foie gras rice" for an additional 300 yen. - The rice is seasoned, and after steaming, the staff seasons it with "sweet sauce" and "salt." The taste is not bad, but I observed them mixing it without knowing what they were doing. They mixed it quite thoroughly, and it seems like they missed the essence of foie gras. It would have been better to lightly mix the foie gras separately. They made the rest into onigiri. - Dessert: A dessert similar to agar with black syrup and soybean flour on top. The steak was tender and delicious, and I was satisfied as I had wanted to try it once.
