Customer Reviews
Great yakiniku restaurant. They are course menu which you don't have to order but they arrange everything for you which is really good. It's varieties of beef from different parts and taste are different. They choose the good one for you so you can try different parts. The whole course took almost two hours and it's full. They have 2 rice dishes and one noodle dish at the end. Every plate are good. Good quality and well cooked. Excellent service. English communication are ok. They are good. Reservation only and not difficult, you can do it from the link in google map. Credit card are accepted. They allowed you to come in when it's the time of reservation and only convenient store available for waiting near by. Be prepared and Enjoy !
Hard to top this meat/beef eating experience. Slightly cleaner in flavor profile than say, Yakiniku Jambo Hanare (flavortown baby!!). The point of coming here is to experience how amazing “simply” prepared meat can taste, as well as to converse with Nakahara-san with regard to his cooking philosophy and experience (only if you get the counter seating) Similarly priced to Jambo Hanare (the “flagship” branch of Yakiniku Jambo/Jumbo I believe) In short, this is a purist’s peak yakiniku experience. Have my second visit lined up already in a few months 😁
A culinary extravaganza for our first night in Tokyo featuring numerous varieties of exquisitely fresh and thinly sliced beef, including Wagyu beef tongue! All cooked table-side over a charcoal grill. The katsu beef sando was amazing. And the “hormones” (loose translation for offal) were a must try (our curiosities included beef cheek, stomach, and aorta).
This was one of the most amazing dining experiences of my life. If you like beef you need to dine here and request a counter seat (4,000 Yen extra pp). Also the tongue which is a house speciality is wonderful (three different cuts). Come with a appetite as there are a lot of courses. Note: "with hormones" means internal organs which we passed on once we learned what that meant.
