"This place was such an amazing experience to eat fresh seafood and enjoy grilling with friends. The prices were very affordable and had everything you needed to have a great meal. Though there is a lot of ash that falls from the grill and can get on clothing which isnβt a big deal. I enjoyed the squid and oysters the most."
William Olaf
"This place was featured several times on Youtube Fukuoka Eats videos. We came at 11am and it was not crowded. Plenty of space and parking. It was really fun the first time BBQ the oysters. There are instructions in English with photos. Beware of the oyster pops! The oysters tasted great on there own. No need for sauce. Try the scallops and sea clams too! The abalone was Β₯1000 on the day each so we skipped that. There is beer for sale but given so far and driving with alcohol on Japan is a big risk we drank tea. Overall great experience."
Peter Lee
"Saw this place featured on YouTube and decided to check it out. Short drive out of Fukuoka with ample parking space. Pick and choose your favourite seafood and you'll be led to your table to start cooking. Great view of the sea on one side and a nice seaside park and pier to walk around after!"
