THE LIVELY FUKUOKA HAKATA’s all-day dining restaurant, THE LIVELY KITCHEN FUKUOKA HAKATA, will introduce a limited-edition autumn course menu starting Tuesday, September 1, 2026.
A Taste of the Season: “Japanese × Italian”
At THE LIVELY KITCHEN FUKUOKA HAKATA, the all-day dining restaurant attached to THE LIVELY FUKUOKA HAKATA, we serve modern Japanese-Italian cuisine that brings together Japanese ingredients and tableware with Italian cooking techniques. Each dish is carefully plated on substantial Japanese ceramics, blending the chef’s favorite trends with seasonal expression to create truly original creations. Beyond the flavors themselves, the presentation style and the story behind each dish are part of what makes the experience special. With a unique menu lineup and relaxed, casual service, we offer a dining experience full of surprise and discovery. Several course options are available to suit different occasions and needs. Even guests who aren’t staying with us are welcome to enjoy the extraordinary atmosphere that only a hotel restaurant can offer.
This autumn, we’re serving course menus for both lunch and dinner that make the most of seasonal flavors. Come savor the taste of the season.
Lunch Course “Fuku” — ¥3,200 (tax included)
Built around the theme of “Autumn Colors,” the lunch course showcases seasonal ingredients in all their vibrant variety.
The course opens with a playful amuse-bouche shaped to look like a mushroom, made from a smooth mousse of mushroom umami and cheese. The appetizer is an elegant tart featuring angel shrimp.
For the main, choose between two options: herb-grilled swordfish with a refreshing lemon cream, or pork slow-braised in red wine with aromatic vegetables. The pasta selection features three seasonal choices made with pumpkin, sanma (Pacific saury), and autumn eggplant, so you can pick whichever suits your mood. To finish, four different desserts add a colorful touch, including a Mont Blanc.
Enjoy a lunch that captures the abundance of autumn — a course as beautiful to look at as it is delicious, letting you savor the season in every bite. <Menu>

Dinner Course “Scent of Autumn” — ¥6,500 (tax included)
The dinner course is designed to carefully draw out the aromas and umami of seasonal ingredients, letting you savor the changing season with every course.
The meal opens with three amuse-bouches, each with its own distinct character. “Peanut” pairs foie gras mousse and peanut paste inside a monaka shell shaped like a peanut, layering sweet aroma with rich, deep umami. “Crab” locks in the umami of crab, finished crisp on the outside and tender within. “Uni” is a capellini dish built on a clam-based broth that highlights the richness of sea urchin. Each one is crafted with equal attention to flavor and presentation, making for a fitting start to the course.
The appetizer is a salad that pairs the umami of seafood with the fresh aroma of seasonal herbs. The pasta brings together a carefully made tomato sauce with creamy stracciatella. For the fish course, enjoy crisply fried red sea bream with seasonal figs in a delicate broth, while the meat course features carefully grilled Kirishima Highland pork served with seasonal burdock root.
