The Samgyupsal was delicious. They serve plenty of perilla leaves. The atmosphere is like a Korean pub or street stall, but not too noisy. I don't drink alcohol, but I still enjoyed the meal. There aren't many Korean restaurants around here, so I'm likely to come back again in the future.

I learned about this restaurant on TV and decided to visit. I was looking forward to trying the Samgyupsal, and I ordered the spicy Samgyupsal set, which was carefully cooked by a female staff member. The vegetable set was refillable, which made me happy! I also ordered Cheese Kalanchim (I prefer the normal one), Baechu Kimchi (average spiciness), Peppernamul (a bit expensive at 550), Tteokbokki with sausage skewers (a bit lacking for the price), and Yukgaejang Gukbap (just the right amount of spiciness and meat). For drinks, I had three types of lemon sour and Makgeolli (2 stars for pear, 4 stars for banana, 5 stars for peach). The interior of the restaurant had K-pop music videos playing, giving a slight feeling of Seoul Myeongdong (lol). Thank you for the meal.

Before the coronavirus, I used to travel to Korea once a month for about 5 days as part of my job. My favorite foods are Samgyetang, Ganjang Gejang, Naengmyeon, and Samgyupsal, which I can eat all year round. I have already explored Italian, Spanish, Thai, and Vietnamese restaurants around Ningyocho, Kodenmacho, and Suitengu, so I was delighted to find a Korean restaurant here. Today, I ordered draft beer, a kimchi assortment, and Samgyupsal (although I didn't order it, they brought a salad as a complimentary side dish, and it's free to refill). In Korea, you usually grill Samgyupsal at your table, but here they grill it in the kitchen and bring it to you. However, the meat was not hot at all. The total cost was just under 4,000 yen.

I have visited the nearby second branch on a regular night, but this time I chose this branch because I couldn't get a reservation at the second branch. The interior of the restaurant is smaller than the second branch, but the menu seems to be basically the same. I ordered the Samgyupsal set, Cheese Kalanchim, Avocado Kimchi, and Chukumi. Before that, a salad was served as a complimentary appetizer, and they mentioned that refills are free. Also, since you order via QR code, it's convenient as you don't have to flag down a waiter. The Samgyupsal had a generous portion of pork, but with free refills of vegetables and condiments, you can keep enjoying it without getting tired of it. The Cheese Kalanchim and Avocado Kimchi were delicious, just like when I ordered them at the second branch before. The Chukumi was spicy with plenty of octopus, highly recommended. This restaurant is recommended when you feel like having basic Korean dishes. However, although the taste and service are consistent, considering the size and atmosphere of the restaurant, I personally prefer the second branch.

Located in Nihonbashi Yokoyamacho, Chuo-ku, Tokyo, this Korean restaurant is convenient for lunch. The nearest stations are Bakuro-yokoyama Station on the Toei Shinjuku Line, Higashi-nihonbashi Station on the Toei Asakusa Line, and Bakurocho Station on the Sobu Main Line. The piping hot stone bibimbap is delicious♪︎ (๑´ڡ`๑) Around noon on a weekday, I hadn't decided where to eat, so I happened to come across this Korean restaurant and decided to give it a try. There were three or more Korean staff members and mostly female customers, both before and after me. The interior of the restaurant creates a Korean street food stall atmosphere, which I really like (人´ з`*)♪ ◆Today's Order◆ Stone Bibimbap 1000 yen with soup and salad. The colorful ingredients were served on a hot stone pot, steaming with heat (*’ω’ﾉﾉﾞ☆ﾊﾟﾁﾊﾟﾁ Stir-fried minced meat, spinach, bean sprouts, fern bracken namul, carrot mash, radish, seaweed, sesame seeds, and egg. Now, let's mix it all up and enjoy (o´∀｀)o I will savor it while mixing. The various ingredients come together to create a complex and layered flavor. Sometimes you just crave bibimbap, right? The soup, maybe made from beef bones, was also good (o^-')b! It was a satisfying lunch. #Koyui #Korean cuisine #Stone bibimbap #Street food atmosphere #Popular restaurant #Samgyeopsal #Naengmyeon #Bulgogi #Dakgalbi #Sundubu jjigae #Looks good for dinner too #Nihonbashi #There is a second branch near Bakurocho #High possibility of revisiting #Can you read "Bakuro-yokoyama"?

I went to the second place. It had a nice cozy atmosphere like a Korean izakaya. I ordered the samgyupsal set. The vegetables in the appetizer set were free refills. It was great because I eat a lot of meat. The intimidating waiter cooked it for us. The meat was tender, no gristle, and didn't feel like cheap izakaya meat. I want to go back again with an empty stomach next time.

I wanted to try various Korean dishes, but I was concerned that many of them are served in large portions and may not be suitable for a small group. So, when four friends gathered, we made a reservation to try Samgyupsal, Jukumi, and Kelanchim. When we arrived, there were only small seats available, but the staff kindly offered to move us to a bigger table when another group left. This was much appreciated due to the limited space in the restaurant. We ordered spicy Jukumi, which turned out to be quite hot, but when it cooled down, they reheated it with extra cheese for us, which was very thoughtful. The service was excellent. We ordered cheese Kelanchim, which we quickly devoured as it was delicious. The egg dish was also highly praised by everyone. For the Samgyupsal, they cooked it in the kitchen and brought it to us due to the limited space, but I wished we could have grilled it ourselves at the table. The meat was a bit thin, which was disappointing. The water kimchi was thinly sliced and unlimited, which made me very happy as I love water kimchi. Before we knew it, we had finished most of the dishes, so I apologize for the many half-eaten photos. Thank you for the delicious meal!

On this day, I had work in Higashinihonbashi and on my way back to Kanda, I decided to have lunch in either Bakurocho or Kodenmacho. I hadn't decided on a restaurant yet, so I wandered around the area from Bakuro-Yokoyama Station. I ended up in front of this restaurant. I realized that I hadn't had Korean food recently, so I decided to take a look at the menu. The lunch menu featured "Our Cold Noodles" as the top item. There were also set meals, bibimbap, jjigae, and a half set of bibimbap and cold noodles. The prices ranged from 950 yen to around 1,000 yen on average. Considering the location, I thought it was reasonable. I decided on the stone bibimbap and cold noodles half set (1,000 yen) and went inside. It was almost 2 PM, but the restaurant was bustling with customers, mostly women. The interior had a vibe reminiscent of a street stall. I sat at a vacant table and placed my order. I was told that I could choose between Korean-style thin noodles or Morioka-style thick noodles for the cold noodles, so I opted for the Korean-style thin noodles. There was a notice on the table stating that only cashless payments were accepted. I had started using PayPay a year ago, so I was relieved, but if it had been before that, I would have been surprised. After a while, the sizzling stone bibimbap and cold noodles were served. The meal also came with salad and Korean seaweed. The sizzling bibimbap was made with meat and four kinds of namul. I mixed it well and found the seasoning of the meat to be delicious. And then there was the burnt rice. I'm not a fan of that (*_*). The toppings for the cold noodles included chicken, cucumber, apple, kimchi, and half a boiled egg. The soup had a gentle and tasty flavor. The noodles were dark thin noodles, probably Pyongyang-style cold noodles. Cold noodles are just so delicious. When I was younger, I used to always order yukgaejang or sundubu whenever I went to a Korean restaurant, but nowadays, I prefer cold noodles. After finishing the bibimbap and cold noodles, I crunched on the Korean seaweed. The salad was also included, and for 1,000 yen, the value for money was reasonable. As I was about to leave, I got disoriented and wandered around. That's when I spotted the second branch of this restaurant nearby. If I have the chance, I would like to visit the second branch as well. Thank you for the meal.

I love pork belly, and the pork belly here is the best! It's juicy and delicious, and you can eat all the vegetables you want to wrap it in. The complimentary water kimchi was also tasty, and we asked for seconds. It's great that you can ask for refills here. The spicy stir-fried pork intestines have a addictive deliciousness, and they were juicy! I definitely want to come back to this restaurant.

Today, I greeted my partner sitting across from me at work and for lunch, we decided to visit a restaurant called "Butadaimon Ichiba" located in the Bakurocho area. Lately, I've been wandering around this neighborhood quite often and this particular restaurant caught my eye with its atmosphere that almost feels like a corner of Seoul. When it comes to Korean cuisine for lunch, the options usually seem limited to either stew with rice or bibimbap, which doesn't always appeal to me during weekdays. However, this place seemed to offer set meals, so we decided to give it a try. The name "Butadaimon" seems to be a play on "Dongdaemun," and the overall setup of the restaurant gives off a vibe that feels somewhat meticulously crafted, making me wonder if there's some Japanese food and beverage influence involved. Upon entering, the interior felt much more authentic compared to Korean restaurants in Shin-Okubo, for example. We took a seat at a vacant table and checked out the lunch menu. While the "Tteokgalbi set meal," which is like a Korean version of hamburger, caught our attention, we opted for the "Cheyukpokkum set meal" (990 yen) as it seemed like a safer choice with a stir-fry dish. Looking around the table, we noticed a sign indicating that cash payment was not accepted, which we hadn't been informed of beforehand. This reminded me of a similar situation at another restaurant in the area recently. I wonder if there's a connection between the two. As more customers started to fill the restaurant, mostly women, it became almost full. It's clear that Korean cuisine still holds a strong appeal among female diners. The "Cheyukpokkum set meal" arrived piping hot and sizzling, resembling a version of sweet and sour pork with gochujang. It may not be flashy or extravagant, but it was tasty and provided a glimpse into everyday Korean home cooking. It made me realize the value of expanding my culinary horizons. Overall, this experience has piqued my interest in trying the "Tteokgalbi set meal" next time. (6/10 points)

I visited the restaurant "Korean Food Stall Ton Daimon Market Bakurocho Store" with a rating of 3.45 on Tabelog. The location is in Higashi-Nihonbashi, a convenient location near the station. The exterior is lively and resembles a real Korean food stall, while the interior is also Korean-themed. I have fond memories of enjoying "Samgyeopsal" with my colleagues in this area. The Tejipulcogi set meal and Kimpa lunch were delicious, especially the unique sweetness of the Korean-style sukiyaki. Overall, it's a great place to experience a taste of Korea.

Located right near Bakurocho Station, there is the Buta Daimon Market!! This time, with the state of emergency lifted, the 24-hour 2nd store is open ^_^ It stands out on the dark street corners where salarymen are returning home, like being in Korea!! The interior of the store can make you feel like you are in Korea too! Although it is more geared towards young people, the Samgyeopsal is a must-try, and dishes like Kimchi salad, Japchae, and Budae Jjigae have a homemade feel that is authentic and appealing to both Japanese and Korean youth! You can easily tell why it is so popular. They even cook the meat in the kitchen and bring it to you to prevent oil splatter if you're in a suit, providing a gentle service. Repeat visits are a must ===========

I have been there a few times (since it's close by) but whenever I go, I always feel like having Korean food, but then lose my motivation to eat once I actually start eating. The atmosphere is interesting with a street food vibe, but if it's run by Koreans, they should provide tastier dishes. I miss Ichiocho in Minami Asagaya.

I enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant, which felt like something out of a Korean drama with its street food style. The Sundubu was spicy, but also full of flavor, and I could really taste the difference from homemade. There were so many menu options that I couldn't try them all in one visit, so I definitely want to go back again.

■August 2021 Visited during the COVID-19 pandemic, this place offers alcohol even after 8 pm, which was very helpful. It was my first time in Higashi-Nihonbashi, and this restaurant seems to have been around for a while with an interior that feels like authentic Korea. It has a different atmosphere from the recently opened Yokohama branch. I usually only eat unseasoned meat when it comes to samgyeopsal, but this time I ordered a set where I could compare the regular samgyeopsal with the tenjang samgyeopsal. The staff cooked the meat for us, and it was tender and delicious! The tenjang samgyeopsal was not too spicy and also very tasty. I tried a dish called chapaguri for the first time. It seems to be made by mixing noodles and chapaghetti, and it was a big hit. It's like a spicy yakisoba. It was delicious. It was a restaurant where you could experience the atmosphere of Korea. Thank you for the meal.

This is a little well-known restaurant with a charming atmosphere! It feels like a hidden gem in the backstreets of Seoul. The interior of the restaurant is simple, with basic tables and chairs lined up. I decided to try the Budae Jjigae, a dish where ham, sausages, ramen, and other ingredients are simmered in an individual pot. You can choose the level of spiciness, but even the mild option is quite spicy. However, the cheese in the dish helps to balance out the heat. The food was delicious, but the best part was definitely the atmosphere of the restaurant. I would love to experience this vibe again. Thank you for the meal. I will definitely visit again.

I visited this restaurant for lunch because I couldn't go at night due to the ongoing pandemic situation. The atmosphere was lively with people enjoying their meals and drinks. The menu had changed a bit since my last visit, but I ordered the original Sundubu jjigae set with half portions of stone bibimbap and spicy bibim noodles. The food was delicious, especially the hot Sundubu. The service was a bit slow due to the busy crowd, but the staff was friendly and made the wait bearable. Overall, I enjoyed the meal and look forward to visiting again for dinner once the pandemic is over.

A group of eight suddenly arrived later, and the food that I didn't like was just average. I thought there was a little too much lettuce. The Korean food wasn't the best value for money, maybe other places are cheaper. But I was happy to see perilla leaves! I wish the group hadn't come, I wanted to enjoy a bit longer. The makkoli was lukewarm and not good.

I used it for Sunday lunch! I made a reservation and visited. I reserved at 12 o'clock and arrived 10 minutes early. About 10 minutes later, it was almost full, so I was glad I made a reservation! I was surprised that they were serving alcohol even during the state of emergency, but I enjoyed a precious draft beer after a long time, haha. But the draft beer is a bit expensive... I ordered half & half of bibimbap and noodles! I could choose from 3 types for both! The cold noodles were delicious when I made them spicy! After that, it was almost full again! It was a place I wanted to enjoy with alcohol at night when I don't have children!
