Don't understand why the bad reviews. Our dining experience here is as good if not better than Mt Hakodate. Our foods are tasty and portions are sufficient. The panoramic view is good but Hakodate and Sapporo are better. The three interactions with counter staff are cordial and polite. There are greetings, smiles and eye-contact. Nothing more to ask for.

AMAZING VIEW / AMAZING FOOD FOR LOCATION we enjoyed our meal, curry, noodles very much. The view is amazing. But the most important thing to me was the quality of the food in such a place. There is an actual cook, an actual waitress. Whenever I went to a touristic place restaurant I don’t expect such a heartwarming quality. Of course you tend to forget it when you go to Japan, and the comparaison becomes harder. But sit down quietly, enjoy your meal. Look at the view and relax, and take in all the intention given inside your bowl of noodles. Also, an other thing I loved, the place hasn’t done any refurbishing since the 60’. Which is great.

The main reason to go to this cafe is to eat your meal whilst enjoy the fabulous view! Unfortunately the lady at the entrance who takes your order as you go in was quite unfriendly! My daughter has a nut allergy and politely asked in Japanese if her chosen meal was safe but was just told they didn't recommend it. Although she asked for the allergen book and could see it by the counter, the lady wouldn't give it to her to check for herself so she had to have a different meal when it might not have been a problem! The food itself was very nice and the young girl also working there was friendly. There isn't much atmosphere in the restaurant, but it's worth going to enjoy the view.
