Charcoal-grilled Yakiniku Izumino Reviews
Charcoal-grilled Yakiniku Izumino Google Average Rating

I ordered 4 plates of meat for myself, here’s what I recommend:
1. Premium beef tongue 2,400 yen - the texture is not tough at all vs. the regular which I also got (I had to eat a piece in a single bite lol)
2. Premium (Japanese) skirt steak 2,400 - nicely marbled without being too fatty
I also got kalbi, a taste you’d be familiar with but a little too sweet for my liking and the high sugar content also messed up the grill very fast.
The waiters couldn’t really speak English but they’re still helpful.

Food is incredible (ordered lots of tongue, tritip, garlic rice and sirloin sukiyaki, yam kimchi as highlights)
Will be a little tradition for us from now on when in Tokyo to visit Izumino-san and his family!
