I went for the second time and enjoyed the Yugen salad and bibimbap again. Apart from that, I savored the meat dishes. Everything was tender and I enjoyed chewing each bite. I forgot to take a picture of the meat dishes, but I will share photos of red wine, female cow figurine, and "No Wagyu No Life". I recommend it for a luxurious treat once in a while!

The shop was very friendly and nice, with many famous baseball players and celebrities having visited as evidenced by the many signed autographs on the walls. We used a private room on the third floor after climbing the stairs. It was a holiday, so the service was a bit slow, but the staff were all polite. The meat was tender and substantial, with each dish offering a satisfying portion. The kimchi was also delicious! I tried tail grilling, which is not commonly seen in Kansai, for the first time and found it tender and delicious. We mainly drank, but the spicy Jajangmyeon at the end was a bit spicy but tasty, making it perfect for accompanying drinks. I would love to visit again if I have the chance.

I ordered the menu: Harami small for 1,193 yen (tax included). When I arrived at 9:00, the special Harami and Sagari were sold out. The menu also included kimchi and a potato salad with beef stew on top. Thank you for the delicious meal, Tai Gen Honkan!

The overall quality of the red offal is high and recommended. The upper tongue is delicious enough, the portion of rice is large but easily finished. The grilled beef is delicious, and the skirt steak is also tasty. The orange juice, called "Kintaihei," from Nagasaki, was delicious.

I made a reservation for 8:00 pm but unfortunately the fresh liver I was looking for was sold out... It was a bit disappointing but the meat was delicious as always! Both the yukhoe and grilled meat were tasty, and we finished with the usual cold noodles. I prefer to enjoy the noodles and broth without adding anything.

This is my second visit. The first time, I couldn't bring my son, so this time I brought both my sons. We enjoyed dishes like yukhoe and beef tongue sashimi, which are not often available elsewhere. I forgot to take a photo, but the seared fresh liver is also highly recommended! It's hard to convey in a photo, but the highball with soda is the best I've had among all the places I've been to. The food and drinks were served quickly and the overall experience was very comfortable without any waiting time!

I went to this restaurant with my son and his wife for a meal. I used to think that Big Oen was the go-to place for yakiniku in Hakata, but there are so many delicious places here... This has now become my new favorite restaurant. The cozy interior with calming lighting gives off a clean and organized vibe. It's a great setting for a date or a meal with family or friends. We started with the Hara-mi yukke, which allowed us to taste the meat really well! Next, we had the thick-cut tongue... it lived up to expectations. Then we enjoyed lean cuts like thick ichibo, top loin, and lean sukiyaki-style meat. All the meats were of high quality and we could enjoy them without worries. The upper hormone and mino were also excellent. They were neatly prepared and easy to eat! If you're a moderate eater, one portion is enough for two people. Considering this, the prices are quite reasonable, and all the cuts of meat are consistently delicious! After a bit of drinking with three people, the bill came out to just over 20,000 yen... a price that is justified by the overall quality. I think this is a great restaurant. It was a fun and delicious dining experience. Thank you very much!

The quality of the meat was completely different. It was all tender, lean, and very delicious. I've never had such meat before!!!! You can order everything in small sizes, so you can enjoy a variety of dishes in a refined way with just the right amount. - Upper Kalbi Small - Taigen Roast Small - Taigen Salad - Cucumber Kimchi - Maru Shin Small - Kaenomi Small - Specialty Grilled Sukiyaki Small - Maruchou

I visited TaiGen, which was selected for the first time in the top 100 yakiniku restaurants on Tabelog, the day after the announcement was made (lol). TaiGen raises its beef from calves and only offers female cattle. You can't miss the akami yaki suki, which you eat by dipping it in egg yolk. Don't forget to order rice as well. They offer a variety of rare cuts of meat, and you can order them in half sizes to enjoy different cuts. Thank you for the delicious meal.

Juju. I went with my parents and family. It was a fairly large group, but we managed to get a reservation the day before. The private room had a nice atmosphere. It was a convenient location in Akasaka! The grilled dishes, Ichibo, were delicious. Thank you for the meal!

This is a high-end and delicious meat shop. The prices are a bit high, but they provide the best meat in the best condition. It's a great place for celebrations or special occasions with loved ones. It seems like you can get a good deal by making a course reservation the day before. Since I went on the same day, I ordered a la carte menu items. The meat was tender, juicy, and flavorful. Delicious meat always lifts your spirits, right?

I came to Akasaka for some errands. While looking out the bus window, I noticed a lunch service flag. Huh? Wasn't Tai Moto supposed to be only open at night? I wondered when they started serving lunch. I decided to stop by and check it out. It was just before 12 o'clock and there were a few people lined up, but I was seated in about 10 minutes. There were various menu options, but I chose the 1000 yen assorted cuts lunch with an additional 300 yen for seared lean meat. For those who like to try different things, the option to add individual items to the meal is great. There were quite a few solo diners as well. I was seated on the first floor, but it seemed like there was also a second floor. After a short wait, my food arrived. Since it was assorted cuts, there were various parts mixed in. Every part was really delicious ♥ But the amount of meat was much more than in the menu photo, haha. The additional seared lean meat also arrived. Oh, this is considered lean meat? The quality is understandable why it's a popular menu item. I was advised to lightly sear it. Yes, sear it and dip it in the egg, and enjoy it. Mmm, this is delicious too ♥ It was undeniably delicious. For the last piece, I had it over rice as a tamago kake gohan (egg over rice)♪ It was delicious with the shiny rice. I was very satisfied, but it turns out that the lunch service is only available during the state of emergency, and today is the last day! Oh, what a shame! If I had known earlier, I would have come to eat here a few times, haha. But I'm glad I stopped by today. I'll visit again for dinner next time. Thank you for the meal♪

*Last time we had a course meal, this time we ordered a la carte. We had beef tongue (upper salted), misuji, zabuton, lamp, cream, upper kalbi, Thai prime rib, sagari, Thai prime salad, meat potato salad, seared sushi, and more. My favorites were the seared sushi, misuji, zabuton, cream, and Thai prime salad. All the meats were beautiful, tender, and melted in the mouth. They offer a variety of options including half portions. Unfortunately, liver and thick-cut tongue were sold out. There were two types of sauces, both delicious. The Thai prime salad was quite voluminous, I thought it might be too much for four people, but we finished it easily. The meat potato salad was good, but nothing extraordinary about the potato salad itself. Overall, the quality was very high and we were very satisfied with the meats. I would love to go back again. *Atmosphere: The restaurant is not very spacious, but there is a second floor with comfortable seating. Even without a private room, the curtains provide a sense of privacy. The service is polite and the ambiance is pleasant.

The kimchi, namul, negitan, yukke, special harami, sagari, premium kalbi, sukiyaki, and naengmyeon were all delicious, but the naengmyeon was the best I've ever had. I want to go back just for the naengmyeon. The highball was very weak, so I asked for a stronger one, but it was still light. That was the only thing that bothered me a little, but I will definitely go back. Thank you for the meal.

On this day, I watched the June Kabuki performance at Hakataza. It was better to be able to hold the event with every other seat empty and only one-fifth of the usual audience, rather than not being able to hold it at all. I felt sorry for the performers. As I usually do, I was thinking about where to go for a drink after the show, but I couldn't do that this time. Just then, I saw a post on social media about a special night set meal for 2000 yen (tax included). I had missed out on going to a restaurant for lunch during the second state of emergency, so I was feeling regretful. When I made a reservation, I was told that they would close at 8:00 PM with the last order at 7:30 PM, as I mentioned that I would be coming from Hakataza. When I entered the restaurant, I was surprised to see that it was quite small, with only 6 tables despite being a popular place. I gave my reservation name and was shown to my table. Since I had already ordered the night set meal when making the reservation, it was served all at once on a tray. It included rice, seaweed soup, vegetable salad, and namul. The meat selection consisted of upper tongue, uchimomo (inner thigh), taigen loin, zabuton (Chuck flap), kameno ko (turtle meat), and two pieces of intestine. It also included some rare cuts. All the meat was fresh and delicious, allowing me to enjoy the different textures and flavors. The rice was cooked perfectly, and I particularly enjoyed the high-quality taigen meat at a reasonable price. When I asked the staff about the bill, they mentioned that this special night set meal for 2000 yen is only available during the state of emergency.

Night set meal 2000 yen Due to the state of emergency, the night set meal has started. I visited immediately. First, the salad was larger than during lunch, which was a nice surprise. The main dish arrived quickly. The meat was as wonderful as always! I enjoyed half with salt and wasabi, and half with sauce. It was truly a meal that made me happy. I hope they continue offering this for a long time.

I don't know how many times I've been to Taigen. Tonight, I saw the sign and decided to enter. "【Strongest】Night Set Meal Started" It's about time for cold noodles to start, but I'm curious about the strongest night set meal...! I entered with a friend and we were asked at the entrance whether we wanted the set meal or the regular menu. We chose the set meal and were then checked for temperature before entering. On the first floor, there was only an elderly couple with a reservation. I hope I can stay healthy enough to eat the meat here even as I get older... Well, we decided on the night set meal, and also ordered an additional yakisuki, as we always do, and a kakuteki for a side dish. After waiting for about 5 minutes, a large tray with a lot of meat, rice, and salad was brought to us. This is... indeed the strongest. Not the biggest or the best, but the strongest. Soon after, the soup, yakisuki, and kakuteki arrived. I started with the tongue... The meat is so good that it's best not to overcook it. Grilling each slice one by one and savoring it... it's just too delicious... I may have mentioned this before, but it has been scientifically proven that eating good meat makes you feel happy. I love the way they cook and serve the meat here. It's perfect. I didn't notice before because I always had beer, but the rice is also delicious. It's cooked just right, not too soft. We enjoyed eating slowly and carefully, and the total bill for two was under 5,000 yen. The staff also assured us that "this is really a great deal." I definitely want to come back here again before long. Thank you for the meal~

I visited the incredibly delicious "Yakiniku Taigen Honkan" at night and tried their a la carte dishes, which were unbelievably tasty.

Rare cut 5 points + top tongue 2000 yen. This time, I challenged the rare cut. It says "super limited". The meat is about 150g in total. As shown in the photo, it was delicious today too! I don't know how long this lunch will be available, so let's go when we can. I'm thinking like in Dragon Quest!
