Great place for a get together with friends. Yakiniku is top notch, and drink menu covers all bases quite well. Make sure to drop by to check on special meat cuts of the day and other daily specials that are only listed in store. Attentive staff and very quick service.

I can't eat a lot of fatty meat. But it was delicious ❣️

I heard that it was a popular restaurant because it had appeared on TV, so I went to visit it (it was quite a walk from Ogikubo Station).

The tables were neatly arranged inside the store, and since it was early, I was able to enter the store without any difficulty.

I ordered all the dishes recommended by the staff, including `Jotan, Special Harami, Loin, and Zabuton.'' After that, we ate rare parts and Shimachou (so-called hormone), but this one was my favorite❣️
Also, the meat served with the shop's own `salt powder'' was good.

I'm thankful that when the net gets dirty, I ask the store staff and they happily replace it right away.

When I was a student, I could eat Yakiniku at any price, but as I got older, I couldn't eat it at all (cries).

Thank you for the feast.

This yakiniku restaurant is located about an 8-minute walk from Ogikubo Station in the Asagaya direction. Honestly, the quality of the meat was high and it was delicious. It might be a hidden gem.
The meat I received today was salt tongue, short ribs, and zabuton. Next time, try Chateaubriand...!
Personally, I liked that they only had highballs above Chita. There were also quite a variety of wines.
To finish off my meal, I was hesitant about cold noodles, but the famous beef tendon tomato curry I ordered was delicious. It's sweet and doesn't come with rice. I can enjoy the soup, but I also order rice. It was delicious.
Normally, groups seem to be able to enter easily, but on this day there were only individual users.
I would like to go again.
