Yakisoba Celona Review Summary

My family requested Wagyu on our visit to Tokyo and this restaurant did not disappoint. It was entertaining to watch the chef cook in a small intimate group setting. The restaurant’s vibe is chill and sophisticated.

We enjoyed every bite of the wagyu beef and other small plates! We’re still dreaming of the yakisoba noodles! They only have 1 dessert in the menu: Basque cheesecake. Do not skip dessert!

This was an amazing dinner experience. I came here for dinner. The atmosphere was warm and intimate. The entire restaurant seems to be run by one man who is truly talented, as he both takes orders, serves drinks and cooks all the dishes on the griddle.

The yakisoba and shrimp skewers tasted great, but the unforgettable dish was the Wagyu steak. It was one of the best steaks I have ever tasted. It was both crispy and tender, full of flavor. This flavor was enhanced further by the mustard and salt garnishes.

The service was excellent. The chef even walked out of the restaurant and held the door open for me as I left. I hope to come back here someday.

This is a small and cozy restaurant with great service where you can try some amazing food! Definitely try the Yakisoba and after that the rest of the menu has a small selection of high quality options.

After trying the Yakisoba, I got the Wagyu since it was the main reason for me to go - it was perfect! Medium rare, melts in your mouth, and to top it off it comes with some of the best fries I've ever had.

For dessert they had only one option - the melted Basque Cheesecake. It was amazing and a great finish to the overall outstanding dinner.

I definitely recommend you visit this place - it might not be centrally located, but public transport in Tokyo is so good that it doesn't matter.

We are glad we experienced this restaurant. The wagyu was the highlight, it was amazing and cooked perfectly. The yakisoba was also delicious and I wish I had more of it. We tried a lot of other dishes which ranged from alright to excellent. It’s a very small and boutique place but very clean and well kept. The chef was friendly and entertaining, and his assistant was attentive to change our plates when needed. It was definitely pricy with the wagyu but worth it!

We came back to Yakisoba Celona twice because we missed the food and service so much after travelling through Japan to find the best wagyu beef.

Yakisoba Celona is situated in a small nook in a quiet residential street run by the kind owner who is also the chef. What made the experience stand out was how methodical he was in cooking our food and ensuring every pinch of salt (literally) was exact. His kitchen was also so clean even the ventilations above the stove and teppanyaki table, which usually would show some wear and tear or grease in all other places but not his!

You can tell his food was made with much precision and love, and the texture of the beef was so buttery it melted in our mouths but also had a hint of crisp on the outside. His Yakisoba was also delicious as he crisped it a bit too and gave it such unique texture.

Highly recommend Yakisoba Celona. There really was no other place we would go back to for the best wagyu beef than here.
