My lively boy wanted some yakiniku. He's at that age where he craves yakiniku, ramen, and hamburgers. That seems to be the instinct of a high school boy. It's been a while since we had a lunch course! Lunch courses are cost-effective, I think! But unfortunately, today was disappointing. We waited for 20 minutes and the meat we ordered didn't come. So we called to remind them, but it still didn't come. With only 15 minutes left, we hurriedly ordered dessert, and then the meat arrived. However, the two meat dishes we ordered never arrived. After waiting for 25 minutes without eating anything during the 90-minute all-you-can-eat period, I couldn't eat any more meat. My child said he would eat until the end, but in the end, he didn't want to take any pictures either.

I reserved a table at King, which has a lively atmosphere, through the internet. I chose the King course and enjoyed a hearty meal! The meat dishes had a bold flavor, which I think would appeal to younger people. I tried the harami steak and sukiyaki from the fourth-generation menu, and the harami steak was delicious. I wanted to try more dishes, but I also enjoyed drinking beer. For dessert, I had kinako soft serve, which you can choose from a touch panel. It's a great feeling to be able to eat as much as you want of what you like. Overall, it was a happy experience!

I wanted to try Kinug, a restaurant. They offer a lunch buffet, but I chose the King course which includes the regular buffet as well. There were many menu options and it was fun to try a variety of dishes. I especially liked the combination of egg over rice and sukiyaki. It was popular and there was a line forming quickly.

It had been almost half a year since the last visit in November. The Hokkaido Fair seemed to have lasted quite long. The menu had been updated, so I decided to go! This time, the Korean Fair also did not have any beef dishes. However, there were many interesting side dishes that caught my attention. I made a reservation and arrived around 11:20. The restaurant was about half full. I chose the King Course for 3498 yen. Although lunch came with unlimited soft drinks, the price seemed to have increased quite a bit. The total came to 3498 yen, which I paid with a credit card. I wasn't expecting much from the Korean Fair this time, but it turned out to be quite good. Unlike the usual spicy Korean dishes, this fair had a lot of sweet and savory street food and festival-like dishes that made me want to try different things. The best dishes were the Chu-kumi and Cheese Balls. Even though I didn't have high expectations for the four new signature dishes, they turned out to be quite good. I left the restaurant feeling satisfied and content. - Black Oolong Tea - King Salted Pork Tongue x 2 - Negi Salt - Unlimited Crispy Cabbage Salad with Baby Star - Cheese Chu-kumi (Stir-fried Spicy Miso Octopus with Cheese) - Bibigo Fried King Mandu - Seafood Sundubu Jjigae - Pot Pickled Thin Pork Loin - Galibata Soy Sauce Marinated Harami Steak - Devil's Nozawana Kimchi - Iced Tea - Cogma Cheese Balls - Cheese Topping All-You-Can-Eat Stone Pot Magma Fried Rice

During a regular car inspection, I decided to try out Yakiniku King for lunch, a place I had never been before. When I entered, the restaurant was bustling with families and there were about 10 groups waiting inside. I had to wait for about 30 minutes before being seated. The lunch buffet on weekends and holidays costs ¥2178 and includes unlimited servings of yakiniku, soup, kimchi, salad, noodles, rice, and soft drinks for 100 minutes. The menu includes various types of meat such as beef kalbi (marinated and salted), pork salted tongue, chicken kalbi salted, three-layer pork loin (marinated and salted), thick-cut pork kalbi, and super spicy thick-cut pork kalbi. There is also a kimchi platter, vegetable soup, and chilled somen noodles. While the flavors were nothing exceptional, the fact that you can eat all of this for around ¥2,000 makes it a great deal. Thank you for the meal.

Hokkaido Fair seems to have started again. They have crab dishes and hormone, which are my favorite dishes. It's my favorite fair. But it seems like Hokkaido Fair and Korean Fair are held frequently. Made a reservation on EPARK for 2 pm. The fair just started, but it's already super crowded even during lunchtime. Almost all seats are taken. Of course, I chose the King Course for 3278 yen. It includes all-you-can-drink during lunchtime. It's a great deal to be able to eat the main dishes at this price. Looking at the tablet, there are still Korean Fair menu items available. I was happy about this. But to my disappointment, they were all sold out. What a letdown. Ended up paying 3278 yen with a credit card. The cost performance is really great. As expected, the highlight of the fair menu is the stone-grilled crab rice. Other fair menu items are decent but not as satisfying. However, most fair menu items are pork dishes. King has a variety of satisfying dishes, so I always struggle to decide on the main dish. When a new fair starts, I tend to focus on the fair menu items. Since the Hokkaido Fair just started, I might go again.・Black Oolong Tea・King Salted Pork 3・Negi Shio 2→ Pork tongue is available everywhere, but I like King's. It has a good texture and a mild flavor, perfect for starting the meal.・Red Snow Crab Coleslaw→ A coleslaw with crab meat, which elevates the dish.・Red Snow Crab and Asparagus Cream Gratin→ Topped with plenty of cheese, but it didn't melt easily. Be careful not to let the macaroni burn and stick to the tray. The taste was average.・Tokachi Pork Bowl Set→ Pork belly soaked in sauce and rice topped with plenty of green onions. The portion of rice is just right. The sauce is sweet, which might be a hit or miss for some people. It goes well with rice.・Devil's Nozawana Kimchi→ Extremely spicy. It wakes up your taste buds, perfect for a break between dishes. But it's so spicy that half the portion would be enough.・Mozzarella Cheese All-You-Can-Eat PIZZA Potato Churro→ The staff left it as is. Isn't it supposed to be all-you-can-eat cheese? The churros got burnt. It tasted like ketchup, cheese, and potatoes, nothing special.・Coca-Cola・Red Snow Crab Stone-Grilled Crab Rice→ The highlight of the Hokkaido Fair. It's incredibly delicious. The crab meat, green onions, rice, and soy sauce dip make a perfect combination. The stone grilling enhances the flavor of the crab. The portion of rice seemed smaller than usual.・King Kalbi→ Always delicious. It's my favorite among all the grilled meat chain restaurants. It goes well with rice and alcohol.・Famous Hanasakujo Roast Garlic Soy Sauce→ I always order this. It's meaty and the garlic soy sauce is amazing! I'm always torn between ordering King Kalbi and Hanasaku Roast because they are so satisfying.・Asahikawa-Originated One-Piece Salt Hormone→ It's a bit of a hassle to cut it into small pieces. It's tasty with salt, but it's better enjoyed with alcohol. Eating it during the latter part of the meal when your taste buds are overwhelmed might make it hard to appreciate the complexity of the hormone.・One Bite Cold Noodles→ I don't usually order cold noodles, but I did this time. It comes with kimchi, shredded egg, and cucumber kimchi.・King Sloppy Chocolate Brownie 3→ I'm not a fan of brownies that stick to the palate, but it might be refreshing with soft serve ice cream. I prefer a crunchy texture.・Premium Sherbet・Soft Almond Jelly・Chocolate Vanilla Soft Serve 2

We used this restaurant for lunch with our family this time. It's a chain store called Yakiniku King. The interior is spacious and has a bright atmosphere. [Menu including takeout this time] ☑️ Lunch all-you-can-eat... 2178 yen The meat was delicious, especially the shoulder loin. It was so tasty! Not too greasy, with a good thickness that made it hard to stop eating. The nori tamago rice for yakiniku was incredibly delicious too! Once you put the meat on it, you can't stop eating. Other items like kalbi and hormone were also delicious. The side menu is also great, so satisfying! Soft drinks are also included in the all-you-can-drink service. With this price, it's even more satisfying. Please stop by and try it out. Thank you for the meal! 🍽️ Here at "Nabecha's Gourmet Diary ☺️," we also share other delicious gourmet experiences. Please take a look! |´-`)ﾁﾗ

I went to Yakiniku King for the first time in 2 months! I usually go every time they have a new fair. Yakiniku King is affordable and satisfying, so it's great. Even if you don't order the top course, you can still be satisfied. Plus, they offer free-flowing drinks during lunch. It seems like they haven't raised their prices, but I noticed that they only open for lunch on weekends now. I think they used to be open from 11 am on weekdays as well. I made a reservation and arrived at 11 am. I ordered the King course with free-flowing drinks for 3278 yen, with a last order at 80 minutes into the 100-minute session. The total came to 3278 yen, and I paid with my credit card. The cost performance is really good. The Korean menu had delicious Deji Kalbi. Unfortunately, they didn't have the Cold Noodles fair menu that I couldn't try last time. - Black Oolong Tea x2 - Calpis Water - King Salted Pork Tongue x2 - Thick-cut Deji Kalbi - Delicious Salted Cucumbers - Crispy Unlimited Cabbage Salad with Baby Star - King Kalbi - Korean Seaweed Rice - Deliciously Spicy Creamy Rose Tteokbokki - Cheese Topping Unlimited Stone-grilled Cheese Yangnyeom Chicken - Stretchy Cheese Balls - Devil's Nozawana Kimchi - Melty Cheese Corn Butter - Sukiyaki Kalbi Half with Raw Egg. The meat is thinly sliced so it cooks quickly. It's a bit fatty, so it goes well with rice. But lately, I can't keep up with the richness of the sukiyaki egg.

While driving, we happened to come across this chain restaurant and decided to stop by for some barbecue. It had been a while since we had barbecue, so we were excited. We opted for the premium course with all-you-can-drink soft drinks, and it was priced just over 10,000 yen for two people, which was reasonable. However, the food was served slowly, which was a bit disappointing. They have introduced serving robots, which seemed to delay the food delivery. There were about four staff members in the hall, and the restaurant was only half full. Despite these drawbacks, there were some delicious meats that didn't feel like your typical all-you-can-eat quality, so we'll let it slide.笑

After completing my regular check-up and receiving guidance from a nutritionist, I decided to treat myself to all-you-can-eat yakiniku! All my blood test results were within the normal range, so my internal medicine doctor was all smiles, but my weight hadn't changed in three months, so the nutritionist's expression was a bit indifferent. Of course, I couldn't tell them that I was going to an all-you-can-eat restaurant! This time, I decided to go to a yakiniku restaurant because they had started a new fair, and it had been two months since my last visit. The last time I went, it was just okay. This time, it seems like cold noodles are the main feature. I made a reservation for 1 p.m. and the restaurant was about 80% full. I immediately ordered the King Course with all-you-can-drink soft drinks. Lunch included free drinks, but I couldn't order the fair drinks, so I had to pay an additional 500 yen. I realized I forgot to order the cold noodles after the order deadline had passed - what a blunder! With only 15 minutes left, I ended up focusing on ordering the sloppy dish. Overall, I was more satisfied with the fair meat options this time, although it was a bit disappointing that they were all pork. The slightly sweet barbecue sauce-like seasoning was a nice touch. The fair drinks were limited to one glass each of mousse and health vinegar. I should have ordered more for the extra 500 yen. The total bill came to 3607 yen, which I paid with a credit card. I can't believe I forgot to order the cold noodles from the fair. I definitely want to come back again. But the King Course is really affordable - the middle course is only 3278 yen. Here's what I ordered and my thoughts on each dish.

I went on a weekend, but the only available reservation slots were at 3pm, 9pm, and 10pm, so I chose 3pm to avoid waiting in line. It was a good decision as it was not crowded at that time. However, leaving at 5pm was a bit hectic due to the rush hour, and I had to wait a bit to pay the bill. Despite the busy staff, the food was delicious and served quickly, so I am satisfied with my experience!

I usually don't care much about domestic beef, but when I'm stressed at work, I sometimes crave that sweet fat. Looking back at my past posts, I realized that even though I had been to this restaurant more than 10 times, I had never ordered the premium course! Maybe because I was always satisfied with the regular course, but I remember seeing some reviews on Tabelog saying that the domestic beef at this place was not that great, so I avoided it. So this time, I decided to challenge myself and ordered the Premium Course for 4378 yen! + Soft drink + All-you-can-drink alcohol for 1529 yen, totaling 5857 yen. Adding the train fare, it goes over 6000 yen. Normally, I feel like I could de-stress with good yakiniku or izakaya food, but anyway, let's go. To build up my appetite, I walked about 40 minutes from Furubuchi Station. I had made a reservation for 8:00 pm. I was seated right away, but... the seating was the worst! Of all places, I ended up next to a group of high school girls. I tried not to make eye contact haha. It seems like the stone grill menu was not available due to some malfunction. Since I focused on ordering mainly beef this time, I tried not to eat rice and just ordered meat and alcohol. I had 9 plates of meat, 4 glasses of alcohol, 2 soft drinks, and 5 desserts. Since I didn't eat rice, I felt like I could eat more meat and drink more alcohol. As for the evaluation of the Premium Course, the beef tongue was not good, but the domestic beef loin and kalbi were delicious. If that's the main purpose, I wouldn't mind paying an extra 1000 yen. The group of high school girls seemed to have come in around the same time and stayed until the end, making it uncomfortable. However, considering that all-you-can-eat would easily go over 3000 yen, I wonder if high school girls these days have that much money. With a 200 yen discount, the total was 5707 yen. It's a bit pricey, but with the all-you-can-drink soft drink option, it's not too bad. I skipped the fair menu this time, but I felt satisfied overall. - Kirin Ichiban Shibori Mid 2 - Oolong tea with black sugar - Raw makgeolli in a glass - Blueberry milk mousse - Cold sake - Cucumber kimchi - Bacon and cheese Caesar salad → It's a regular Caesar salad, but it's delicious with plenty of vegetables. The thick bacon is a nice touch. There's no cabbage in it. - Spicy kalbi soup → You can choose how spicy you want it, and I thought it would be spicy, but it had some kind of spicy chili on it. Level 2 spiciness is not that spicy. The crispiness of the leeks is delicious. - Special rib loin steak → I ordered it first because I thought I wouldn't be able to eat it later. I wanted to eat it with salt and pepper, but unfortunately, it wasn't a condiment. But it was right next to the condiments. It's hard to tell. The meat itself is flavorful and delicious on its own. - Thick-cut beef tongue → It's not as thick as a cow's tongue. It's thin. And it's hard to chew. Is the processing sloppy? I like beef tongue, but I probably won't reorder this one. - Ultimate kalbi with wasabi soy sauce 2 → It has that classic Japanese beef flavor with sweet fat. I usually eat it with wasabi soy sauce, which is not bad. It's a bit salty though. - Dodaka! loin → The loin has a strong meaty texture, which is nice. The seasoning is on the sweet side. It's quite tough, but delicious. - Premium kalbi 3 → It's the same as the one with wasabi soy sauce. It's delicious and rich. It's the main dish. - Grilled kalbi with grated radish and ponzu sauce → It looks greasy, but it goes well with the grated radish and ponzu sauce. - Chicken ramen to eat in a pot → This is the best. The noodles look like they're about to fall apart, there's a distinct instant noodle aroma, everything is top-notch. It's a good finish. It's light and good. - King Sloppy Le Monde 4 → Le Monde is delicious on its own. It's definitely delicious. The berry sauce with remaining grains also goes well. - Soft almond tofu

I felt like eating yakiniku, so I went to Yakiniku King. They are still having their Hokkaido Fair. This is my third time going. I know, I must really love their Hokkaido Fair, haha. But Yakiniku King is the best in terms of cost performance and menu variety. Even the basic King Course is satisfying, but the Hokkaido Hormone from the fair is incredibly delicious, and the crab-filled stone pot dish is also amazing. And all of this only costs 3,278 yen including tax. I considered Anrakutei as an option this time, but their luxurious course is around 7,000 yen, and the lower course wouldn't be enough, so I ended up choosing Yakiniku King again. Usually, I go for the all-you-can-drink soft drinks option, but this time I decided to add the all-you-can-drink alcohol option for 1,529 yen to switch things up. I made a reservation for 12:00 on the Emperor's Birthday. Surprisingly, it's easy to get a reservation at this time. It's great that they allow solo diners as well. Other yakiniku places like Gyu-Kaku or Onyasai often reject solo diners. It's interesting how the stance can vary even among similar yakiniku restaurants. I arrived more than 30 minutes early, so I killed time at a nearby home center. There are many good dining options in the area, but it's tough that there are no convenience stores around. When I arrived at 12:00, the restaurant was fully booked, but since I had a reservation, I was seated right away. Unfortunately, the family next to me was a bit noisy, but oh well. I chose the King Course with all-you-can-drink soft drinks and all-you-can-drink alcohol. With 4 alcoholic drinks and 3 soft drinks, I think I got my money's worth. The total came to 4,807 yen including tax. The items I ordered were: - Kirin Ichiban Shibori beer x 3 - Blueberry milk mousse - Strawberry milk mousse - Black oolong tea - Nama-makgeolli (rice wine) - King salted pork tongue x 3 - Cucumber kimchi - Plenty of Korean seaweed Chorogi salad - King kalbi (short ribs) - Asahikawa-origin salt hormone - Hanasakujo sirloin Gari-bata soy sauce - Stone pot crab rice - Sukiyaki kalbi - Creamy crab croquette - Potato churro with chocolate dip - King sloppy joe x 3 - Chocolate vanilla soft serve

I was torn between going to One Karubi and Kingu, but the attractive fair menu and desserts at Kingu drew me back. I had visited Yakiniku Kingu a month ago, but since I received a birthday coupon for a 10% discount, I decided to go again. Yakiniku Kingu is affordable, but discounts are rare so it's valuable. Last time, I focused on the fair menu, but this time I will also try the regular menu. I made a reservation for around 2 pm, and the restaurant was almost full. Reservations are essential. I ate for an hour and a half, and the customers kept coming. Yakiniku Kingu has all 4-seater tables, so it's spacious and comfortable. If you're dining alone, you can have this large space all to yourself, which is recommended. I usually aim to come during less busy times, but if the restaurant is crowded all the time, it might not make a difference? With the coupon, I got a 10% discount, paying 2951 yen in total. My order included Kingu pork tongue, black oolong tea, bacon and cheese Caesar salad, Calpis water x2, Hanasakijou loin (like a steak, very tasty), Kingu kalbi (a classic and consistently delicious), hotteok (deep-fried and heavy, better eaten freshly fried), stretchy cheese ball (definitely good, would probably order every time), tender hormone salt (not great, different quality from the Hokkaido fair), Korean-style spicy salad (lacks cohesion and difficult to eat with a flat plate), Waka-tama soup, Korean spicy ramen (served in a small pot, quite spicy with a lot of noodles, not particularly special but be prepared for the spiciness and quantity), Kingu sloppy (good but the brownie is too rich, drink necessary), tender almond jelly, choco-vanilla soft serve x2, fruit jelly.

I was drawn to a Korean fair I saw in HP and decided to go! Unlimited cheese topping and making your own onigiri made me excited. I don't usually eat it, but I also want to try spicy ramen. I arrived around 3:30 pm. It was quite crowded as expected. I chose the King Course and SD all-you-can-drink. This time, I focused on the fair menu. Overall, I was satisfied with the fair menu, although the onigiri was a disappointment. There were more non-beef items this time, but I was still satisfied. One disappointing point was the forgotten order. Just like Yuzu-an, King also tends to forget orders quite frequently. Considering the high level, I hope they can be more attentive. Black oolong tea, pork harami samgyeopsal - it was surprisingly tender even though I thought I overcooked it. The spiciness was not that strong. It was like mochi and much tastier than I expected. Stretchy cheese balls - the dough was sweet. The cheese didn't stretch much, but it was quite delicious. It felt like a dessert. Burnt soy corn butter chocolate banana milk, King's cabbage saba salad - I don't usually order cabbage salad, but I was curious and chose it. It's shredded cabbage with mayo, and probably fried saba. There were pieces of fried saba as well as the normal meat. Also cucumber. It was okay tasty. Korean nori rice, Negi shio King Tan 2, King Kalbi, Dolce Poco thick-cut digit kalbi - this was average. It's tender, but not spicy. Unlimited cheese stone-grilled yangnyeom chicken - I had them put on 5 servings since it was all-you-can-eat. The satisfaction was high. It also felt a bit sweet. The chicken was tender. The cheese alone was good too. Tasty. Mix and roll! Korean-style tuna mayo onigiri - I was looking forward to this, but it was a failure. The gloves were small and only one was given, making it difficult for me with hot palms to fit only half of my hand. It was awkward to roll due to the single glove. I made four bite-sized pieces, but the taste was not that great. Maybe it's a children's menu? I ended up leaving it. Rooibos tea, iced tea, strawberry milk mousse - the sweet and sourness of the strawberries made it delicious. It didn't flow and felt quite substantial. King's sloppy real brownie - a second installment following the success of Black Thunder. The fruit was sweet and sour, and I personally liked this one more. I didn't even need the brownie. Almond jelly, chocolate vanilla soft serve.

King Course + all-you-can-drink SD pork tongue with 5 black oolong teas, iced tea, cola, grated yam TKG, cucumber kimchi, cholegi salad, chijimi, king kalbi, addictive harami, pork crunchy hormone, dolce pork grilled shabu, stone-grilled garlic butter rice, sukiyaki kalbi, almond jelly, sloppy 3 jelly.

I always make a reservation on the EPARK app about two weeks in advance before entering. There is a touch-panel reservation board at the entrance, but during busy times, there are a lot of reservations lined up, so it is recommended to make a reservation in advance and then come. Even so, it was crowded on this day, and I had to wait about 15 minutes longer than the reservation time. I use both the Machida and Aobadai stores, and although the stores are old, I feel like I don't have to wait as long for food at the Machida store. Yakiniku King has an app, so it's good to install it because there are benefits like half-price drinks for every visit. The meat is okay, but you can enjoy eating with a strong entertainment aspect.

This year's Golden Week, I can't go anywhere, but I decided to take the 5th, 6th, and 7th off to enjoy a luxurious time. A well-deserved 11-day break for me. I feel a sense of superiority towards those who are still working. Today, I decided to go to Yakiniku King in Machida for lunch, thinking it would be less crowded. Of course, I went for the King Course with the option of all-you-can-drink soft drinks. They were having a local specialty fair, so I chose Tori Nanban and Hormone, Dolce Porco with stone-grilled rice. For the regular menu, I selected the famous Kalbi and Top Sirloin, Kalbi rice, Chorogi salad, and Kimchi. This time, I didn't focus too much on the meat. The fair menu was great, especially the Hormone which had a deep flavor. The Nanban had a rich tartar sauce with a main focus on the egg yolk. The Dolce was average. The stone-grilled rice had unlimited cheese toppings. Be careful not to put too much as it can make it heavy. It was delicious with the spicy cod roe. Then it was dessert time. Two types of soft serve, chocolate cake, sherbet, and almond jelly. The sherbet had melted, which was disappointing. But overall, I was satisfied. I had three drinks. It was definitely worth it to be able to try a variety of dishes for 3,278 yen.
